About Tanning
How to Spot a Qualified Technician
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.
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.
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.
Types of Tanning Methods Explained
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.
Common Problems and What Causes Them
Orange palms come from skipped barrier cream on nails and cuticles. Green patches on knees and elbows mean those areas were not buffed smooth. Streaks along the spine or ankles point to uneven spray distance, usually closer than 15 cm. Fading in 2 days rather than 7 points to heavy moisturiser use or sweat trapped under tight clothing after application.
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.
How Long the Tan Should Last
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.
Spray Tan Solution Strength Levels Explained
DHA concentration usually runs from 8% for a light glow up to 14% for a deep bronze. Technicians pick strength by skin tone, not just by request. Fair skin often takes 8% to 10%. Medium tones handle 10% to 12%. Deeper results need 12% to 14%. The developer mixing ratio also affects how dark the guide color looks on skin before showering.
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 Long an At-Home Session Lasts
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.
