Frequently asked questions
The most common questions we get from our clients
Shave and exfoliate 24 hours before your tan. Women commonly wear a bathing suit, bra & panty or some prefer no tan lines. Men must wear fitted underwear shorts or running shorts.
Approximately 15-20 minutes from start to finish!
Dark, loose-fitting clothing and flip-flop sandals are best. Some bronzer may get on the clothing, so keep this in mind when choosing your post tan outfit. It will wash out of cotton, avoid wearing silk or nylon. Avoid anything tight, such as buckles, straps, jeans, or elastic.
It’s preferred and recommended at least 8 hours, the tan stops developing after 10 hours. Some of our customers prefer to shower the following day and sleep on it. If you absolutely need to shower same day, please wait a minimum of 6 hours. Water will strip your tan and you will definitely have drip marks if you’re not careful. You’ll be dry when you leave from your tan, but your beautiful glow is literally developing and setting in the hours after the tan.
Always moisturize after your shower to keep your skin and tan soft and supple. Most major brands of moisturizer work just fine, but be sure to avoid petroleum-based products (baby oil, Vaseline) or lotions with high concentrations of petroleum, mineral oil, and parabens. Also avoid lotions that exfoliate or bleach the skin. Spray sunscreen is also recommended. We also offer a hydrating tan extender lotion with our own DHA!
One color does not fit all. I will ask some upfront questions if you’ve never tanned with me before. I have an exclusive blend of tanning solutions with different levels of DHA in it. This is how I customize the perfect color for you and your skin type!
Dihydroxyacetone is a colorless sugar that interacts with the proteins and amino acids in the outer layer of the skin to produce a golden brown color. We use a premium blend that is made with organic ingredients such as coffee bean extract and plant derived glycerin. My solution gives a natural glow, low to hardly any odor and dries quickly.
We accept cash, check, credit and debit cards.
Absolutely! We offer a variety of aftercare products to maintain and extend the life of your tan.

- The top layer of bronzer may get on clothing/sheets; it usually washes off but may stain silk, nylon & spandex
