How is a spray tan performed in a salon?
Spray tanning is the safest and easiest way to achieve a natural-looking tan that you can be proud of. Tailored to your skin tone and desired look, Belle Santé Med Spa aestheticians blend five unique formulas to get the exact shade you want.
You remove your clothes in the privacy of a booth. The aesthetician covers your hair and protects your mouth, nose, inside your ears, and your hair. She then sprays your entire body with a fine mist using a special nozzle. The mist has the ingredient DHA, or dihydroxyacetone, that tans your skin.
How is spray tanning in a salon superior to self-tanning at home?
Spray tans at a salon have many advantages over trying to accomplish self-tanning at home.
It's easy
Having someone spray you is much easier than you trying to spray yourself. Belle Santé Med Spa has trained aestheticians who know how to give you a beautiful overall tan without streaks or uneven spots.
You’ll be in a safe booth and won’t have to worry about giving your surroundings a spray tan, too.
It's quick
Spray tans only take a few minutes, and the spray dries quickly. If you use creams at home, it takes much longer to smooth the cream all over your body, and they also take longer to dry.
It's a uniform look
Spray tans administered by a trained aesthetician are smooth: There’ll be no streaks, spots, or missed places on your skin.
It’s challenging to achieve a professional look at home. Trying to cover the backs of your legs evenly without leaving streaks or bare spots are almost impossible, which is why you should rely on a professional.
It's long lasting
Spray tans last longer than self-tans (up to a full week).
What should I do before the spray tan appointment?
For best results, before the appointment:
- Shave the parts of your body that you normally shave
- Exfoliate your skin the day before
- Take off moisturizers, makeup, and deodorant
What should I do after the spray tan?
Your aesthetician gives you specific instructions, such as:
- Wait until you’re very dry to get dressed
- Wear loose clothing
- Use a thong or go without underwear
- Don’t shower for 6 to 8 hours
