Step 01
Shower, shave, and wax at least 24 hours before your appointment. Skin needs time to settle so the tone takes evenly.
Step 02
Scrub the day before with an oil-free exfoliant. Pay extra attention to elbows, knees, ankles, and hands.
Step 03
Drink water all week and moisturize daily up until the night before. Day-of, skip the lotion so the solution can bind to bare skin.
Step 04
Have no makeup, no perfume, no deodorant, and no SPF on prior to the technician's arrival. Anything on the skin acts as a barrier.
Step 05
Wear loose clothing an oversized tee and baggy sweats. No tight waistbands, no bras, no socks.
Step 06
No water on the skin, no sweat, and no tight clothes for 8–10 hours after an original tan, or 2–5 hours after a rapid tan.
