Client Preparation

• Arrive with clean, dry skin—no lotion, makeup, deodorant, or perfume.

• Avoid shaving or exfoliating within 24 hours of your appointment.

• Wear loose, dark clothing and sandals to prevent rub-off.

Client Post Care and Maintenance

• 2-12 hours after appointment:

• Avoid all moisture—no showering, sweating, lotions, or makeup.

• Rinse only when instructed (usually 8-12 hours; express tans rinse in 2-4 hours).

• Rinse with lukewarm water only—no soap. Seeing bronzer wash away is normal. Pat to dry.

• 12-24 hours after appointment:

• Begin moisturizing morning and night. Hydration makes your tan last longer.

• Avoid long hot showers, baths, saunas, swimming, and heavy sweating.

• Wash with hands only—no loofahs, washcloths, or exfoliating.

• Do not exfoliate until your tan is ready to fade.
