About Tanning

Aftercare Rules in the First 24 Hours

Wear loose dark clothing for at least 6 hours after application. Do not shower, sweat, or get wet for 8 to 10 hours. Skip gym sessions, saunas, and swimming. Avoid tight waistbands, bra straps, or handbags pressed against skin. Use only water based products when washing the face. Pat dry, do not rub. These rules let the DHA finish reacting with skin cells.

Common Problems and What Causes Them

Orange patches come from high DHA on fair skin or poor exfoliation. Streaks appear when the skin is wet, hairy, or has lotion residue. Knees, elbows, and ankles often go dark because they absorb extra solution. A skilled tech uses barrier cream on those zones to keep the colour even.

Prep Work Clients Should Do Beforehand

Exfoliate 12 to 24 hours before the appointment using a glove mitt and oil free scrub. Shave or wax at least 24 hours ahead. Skip moisturiser, deodorant, perfume, and makeup on the day. Wear loose dark clothing and loose slip on shoes. Remove jewellery. These steps stop the tan from streaking, patchy areas, or turning orange where product sits unevenly.

Spray Tan Solution Strength Levels Explained

Solutions come in 8%, 10%, 12%, and 14% DHA concentrations. Lower percentages suit fair skin or first-timers, while higher DHA gives a deeper result on medium to olive tones. Ask which brand the tech uses and whether it contains erythrulose, a bronzer that develops over 8 to 12 hours after application.

Questions Worth Asking Before You Book

Ask which solution brand and DHA percentage will be used. Confirm the development time, aftercare products supplied, and how the tech handles skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis. Request the full cost including travel, and check the reschedule policy when cancelling fewer than 24 hours before the visit.

How Long the Tan Should Last

A well applied spray tan lasts 5 to 10 days on most skin types. Dry skin sheds faster, often within 4 days. Oily skin can hold the colour for 7 to 10 days. Hands and feet fade first because of frequent washing. A second light coat at day 5 can extend the look without buildup, especially before an event.

How to Spot a Qualified Technician

Look for formal spray tan certification, a portfolio of before-and-after images, and proof of insurance covering cosmetic application at private homes. Ask how many clients they serve per week and which brands they have trained with. Reviews that mention even fade and minimal orange tones are a strong sign.

How Long an At-Home Session Lasts

A full body session at home usually takes 20 to 30 minutes of spray time plus 10 to 15 minutes of drying. Add another 5 minutes for setup and 5 minutes for cleanup. Most appointments are booked in 1 hour slots. Larger areas like full legs and back add time. Plan for the technician to leave equipment on site for 15 minutes afterward.

What a Tanning Service Usually Covers

Mobile tanning pros offer spray tan application, airbrush contouring, and sometimes pre-tan skin prep. Ask if the technician brings a pop-up tent, an HVLP spray gun, and a solution suited to your skin tone. Confirm whether exfoliation wipes, barrier cream, and post-tan powder are included in the visit fee before booking.

Mobile Setup and Space Requirements at Home

The tech needs a 2 by 2 metre clear floor area, access to power for the spray machine, and good ventilation. A bathroom or bedroom with an open window works well. Clear nearby furniture and lay old towels on the floor. Pets should stay in another room to avoid solution mist.
