About Tanning
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.
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.
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.
Safety and Skin Allergy Considerations
Request a patch test 48 hours before a full session if you have sensitive skin or a history of contact allergies. DHA is considered safe for external use but can irritate broken skin, eyelids, and lips. Pregnant clients should consult their doctor first and avoid inhalation by ensuring proper room airflow during 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.
Prep Work Clients Should Do Beforehand
Exfoliate 24 hours before the appointment using a glove and oil-free scrub. Shave or wax at least 12 hours early to prevent streaking. Remove deodorant, perfume, and moisturiser from skin right before the tech arrives. Bare feet or loose flip-flops prevent tan lines on the toes during the session.
Safety and Skin Allergy Considerations
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.
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.
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.
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.
