Preparing your customer for a spray tan

[katielou95]

To get the best results from a spray tan, they will need to create the best surface for the tan to be applied to. This means taking extra steps to ensure the best results from your tan.

1. Exfoliate and moisturize the skin 24 hours or more prior to the sunless session to create an optimal surface for the spray tan to adhere to.
2. On the day of the session, make sure they do not use any soap, deodorant, cosmetics or lotions of any type on the skin. No exfoliating as this could cause a patchy result.
3. Make sure they wear dark loose fitting clothing.
4. Immediately prior to the session, they will need to liberally coat the hands, elbows, knee’s and feet with barrier cream which should be provided. This is due to those area’s soaking up more tan.
5. Don’t forget the after care of the tan is essential too! To prolong the life of their tan, they can use an oil free tan extender with or without DHA to top up the tan on a daily basis and also use an SLS free body wash.

Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS) is the foaming ingredient that is commonly found in mainstream body washes – this breaks down the surface of the skin which means your tan will start to break down quicker. There are many post spray products on the market to help their tan keep on glowing.
Hope these steps help!
