tanning care

  • Careful planning and prep is the key to a gorgeous, even tan. Follow the steps below to get a glowing peach!

    ✔️ Shave and Exfoliate 24 Hours Before Your Tan
    Be sure to rinse all product thoroughly. This allows time for your pores to close. Do not use razors with moisture strips.

    ✔️ Do Not Shower for 6+ Hours Before Your Tan

    ✔️ Do Not Apply Any Lotion, Makeup, Deodorant, or Perfume the Day of Your Tan
    Arriving with clean skin will allow the tan to be applied evenly.

    ✔️ Be Sure Your Spray Tan Is the Last Appointment
    Waxing, nails, facials, etc. should be done 2–3 days before your spray appointment.

    ✔️ Bring or Wear Dark, Loose Clothing
    Do not wear leggings, jeans, bras, socks, or tight clothing for after your appointment. This will create streaks. Baggy tees, pants, or shorts are highly preferred as well as sandals. Just Peachy is not responsible for streaks due to clothing.

    1. Complete Waivers and Intake Forms
      Be sure that these are up to date and notify your spray tech of any health changes or concerns.

    2. Be Sure Prep Is Completed
      Your tan depends on your prep! Make sure you are ready for your appointment and well-hydrated.

    3. Arrival / Mobile
      If coming to the studio, please have a seat in the lobby or browse our retail. If your appointment is at your location, please inform your spray artist of any parking or entry instructions.

    4. Consultation
      Your spray tan artist will ask you questions about your skin, tanning goals, and schedule to find the perfect solution and color for your needs.

    5. The Tan
      You will then be able to undress to your comfort level for your tan. Your artist will prep you, then use a professional airbrush gun to spray your tan. Your tan will be blended, and drying powder will be applied.

  • Your after-tan care is just as important! Take care of that glow.

    ✔️ Do Not Get Wet Before Your Rinse Time
    Use a straw to drink and try not to spill. If you have kids, maybe skip bathtime that night.

    ✔️ Rinse at the Right Time
    If you rinse too early, you may not get the color you want. Rinsing too late can result in dry skin and patchiness.

    ✔️ Rinse With Warm Water
    Rinse until the water runs clear. Don’t forget ankles and neck! You may see your tan “wash down the drain.” That’s just the cosmetic bronzer. Your tan will take a full 24 hours to develop.

    ✔️ Moisturize and Hydrate
    Healthy, hydrated skin will help your glow last longer. Be sure to drink plenty of water and moisturize 2x a day! Using a gradual extender is a great way to extend the life of your tan. Ask me about my retail at your appointment!
