Setting the Records Straight on Spray Tanning

Ever heard that spray tans turn you orange? Or that they’re only for the winter months? Let’s set the record straight! Here are the top five myths about spray tans that deserve a second look:


1. Myth: Spray Tans Will Turn You Orange

This is a classic, but it's also the furthest from the truth. Modern spray tan formulas are designed to give you a natural, sun-kissed glow—not an Oompa Loompa vibe! The key is to work with a technician who uses high-quality products and customizes your tan to your skin tone within their color consultation. 


2. Myth: A Spray Tan Won't Last Long

While spray tans aren’t permanent(sadly), a good one can last up to 10 days with proper care. By using natural soaps and moisturizing/hydrating a little more than you normally would while avoiding harsh scrubs, you can enjoy your glow even longer!


3. Myth: Spray Tans are Only for Winter

Think again! Spray tans are perfect year-round, whether you want a sun-kissed look for the holiday season, your 9-5pm job doesn't leave enough time in the summer for the sun, or to JUST BE TAN whenever you want. 


4. Myth: They’re Bad for Your Skin

Spray tans are one of the safest ways to get color without the UV damage of sunbathing or tanning beds. Quality solutions are made with skin-loving ingredients that leave you looking and feeling radiant.


5. Myth: All Spray Tans Look the Same

Spray tans are fully customizable. Your technician can adjust your shade for a subtle glow, a beachy bronze, or a deep tan—whatever suits your style!


Tell us—are these myths finally fading, or will your glow disappear before they do? 

Spray tans are a safe, customizable way to glow any time of year. Don’t let myths hold you back from your perfect tan!

Getting a spray tan is an easy way to achieve that bronzed glow, but a few prep and care tips can take your results from good to flawless! Whether you're a spray tan newbie or a regular, these tips will keep your tan looking fresh and fabulous. 1. Exfoliate Like a Pro Before your appointment, gently exfoliate your skin to remove dead cells, especially on dry areas like elbows, knees, and ankles. This helps the spray tan adhere evenly and prevents patchiness. Aim for 24 hours before, if possible, for the smoothest base. 2. Skip the Lotion and Deodorant Avoid any lotions, deodorant, or makeup right before your spray tan. These products can create a barrier, causing the spray tan to go on unevenly. Go au naturel to ensure an even application! 3. Wear Loose, Dark Clothing Afterward After your tan, choose loose-fitting, dark clothes to avoid any smudges or lines. Tight clothes can rub against your skin, potentially leaving lighter patches in areas like your waistband or collar. 4. Hydrate Your Skin Keeping your skin hydrated is essential for a long-lasting tan. Use a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer daily to lock in the glow without causing streaks. The more hydrated your skin, the longer your tan will last. 5. Avoid Hot Showers and Exfoliating Products Steamy showers and harsh scrubs can strip your tan faster. Stick to lukewarm water and gentle cleansers to extend your tan's life and avoid any exfoliating products until it’s time for your next appointment. 6. Don't Sweat It (Literally!) Try to avoid heavy sweating or activities like hot yoga right after your spray tan. Sweat can lead to streaks if the tan hasn’t fully set, so give it at least 8 hours before breaking a sweat. 7. Pat, Don’t Rub, When Drying Off After showering, pat your skin dry with a towel instead of rubbing it. This helps keep your tan in place and prevents premature fading. With these simple tips and tricks, your spray tan will look better and last longer!
