DHA is approved for cosmetic use but can irritate sensitive skin. Ask for a patch test 48 hours before the appointment, especially if you have eczema, psoriasis, or a history of contact dermatitis. Inhaled spray is a concern in small rooms, so a ventilated area or extractor fan is useful. Pregnant clients should get written clearance from a doctor before booking.
Look for a certificate from a recognised spray tan training provider, such as a 1 day accredited course. Ask how many clients they treat weekly. Check that they use a pop up tent, an HVLP spray gun, and fresh DHA stock with a printed batch date. Insurance for mobile work is a sign of a serious operator willing to share paperwork on request.
Mobile tanning usually means either spray tan or airbrush tan. Both use DHA solution applied through a handheld nozzle or a tent setup with a spray gun. Spray tents are lightweight, around 1.5 m tall, and portable. Airbrush gives more precise control on hands and feet. Choose based on whether you want full coverage fast or a custom blended shade across body areas.
A professional spray tan typically lasts 7 to 10 days with correct aftercare. Longevity depends on shower frequency, sweating, and skincare products used. Oil-based body washes strip colour fast. Switching to pH-balanced soap and patting dry with a towel can extend results by 2 to 3 days.
A standard full-body spray tan takes 20 to 30 minutes including setup. Allow 10 more minutes for drying before putting on loose dark clothing. The colour develops over 6 to 10 hours. Most sessions fit inside a 1-hour appointment window, so plan transport and clothing choices around that timeframe.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
