Michigan Summers & Spray Tans: Navigating Humidity for a Flawless Glow

It’s Not Just the Heat—It’s the Humidity

Michigan girls know: when summer hits, the air gets sticky, and your glow can get streaky. That post-tan confidence? It can quickly melt away in 90-degree heat if you’re not prepared. But don’t sweat it—literally. You can keep your spray tan flawless and fresh even in the thickest humidity. Here's how.

Humidity isn’t just annoying—it’s your tan’s biggest summer enemy. When the air is heavy with moisture, your body sweats more, and that sweat can mess with how your tan develops and wears. From streaking to early fading, the glow can go fast if you don't play it smart. 

Pre-Tan Prep: Your Anti-Humidity Shield

Prepping your skin properly is your first line of defense. Here’s how to prep like a pro:

• Exfoliate 24 hours before your appointment (not the day-of).

• Skip lotions, perfumes, and deodorant before your session.

• Wear loose, breathable clothes—think flowy and dark.

• Avoid high-sweat activities before your tan.

Post-Tan Survival Guide for Hot Days

Your tan might be developing, but so is that summer heat. Stay calm and glow on with these tips:

• Wait the full rinse time (even if you’re sweating).

• Avoid gym time or long walks for at least 8–12 hours post-tan.

• If you do start to sweat, blot (don’t wipe) with a clean, dry cloth.

Schedule Smart, Glow Smarter

Don’t let Michigan humidity catch you off guard. Book morning or evening tans when temps are cooler, and always give yourself 1–2 days before any big event.
