After The Tan
THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP AFTER YOUR TAN IS THE SHOWER PROCESS
We only use RAPID TAN SOLUTIONS:
QUICK RINSING is mandatory to avoid over processing.
**We recommend a Quick Rinse 3-Hours after your appointment.
**Your tan will continue to develop for up to 24 hours, however it is safe to take a regular shower, washing hair and body 8 hours after your Quick Rinse.
**You will want to use paraben-free and sulfate-free skincare products. Look for Hempz and Native Brands.
Why Sulfates are "Tan Killers"
Sulfates are harsh detergents (like Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) used in soaps and shampoos to create lather.
-
Stripping Effect: They are designed to cut through grease and oil, but on a spray tan, they act as a "cleaner" that washes away the DHA (the tanning active).
-
Dehydration: Sulfates strip natural oils, drying out the skin. Since a spray tan sits in the top layer of dead skin, dry skin will flake off faster, taking your tan with it.
