common questions and answers Q: Will this make me look orange and get streaky? A:  No.  We use the finest quality solution to give you a precise and natural glow. Q: Will I get darker after the application and how long will it last? A: Your tan continues to develop for the next 4-12 hours, with a very natural looking outcome (after your first shower).  Typically your tan will fade just like a normal suntan, lasting on your skin about 5-7 days.* Q: What should I wear for my spray-tan? A: A dark bathing suit or dark undergarments (this product can stain silks and nylons, so most people choose to wear an old pair).  Some women choose a topless spray and thong underwear for minimal tan lines.  Men are required to wear undergarments for their application. Q: Will it get on my clothing and will it stain? A: The initial bronzer that gives you the "instant tan” could rub onto your clothing, but washes out of most fabrics (this is why we suggest dark, loose fitting clothing to wear home).  P.S. avoid trying on other clothing before your first shower. Q: When can I shower, shave and/or go swimming? A: The longer you wait to shower, bathe, swim, (or wash your hands), the darker your tan will become – so it’s best to wait between 4-12 hours.  After doing so, be sure to avoid soaking for long periods of time and keep your skin moisturized. Q: Can I get a manicure/pedicure after my spray-tan? A: Yes, but we suggest that you refrain from soaking in water or exfoliating your skin after a spray-tan application.  You may want to opt for just a polish change.  Also--the spray-tan usually does not discolor polished nails, so feel free to get this procedure out of the way before your visit with us. Q: Can I get a bikini wax after my spray-tan? A: It is highly recommended that you schedule all waxing and hair removal procedures before a spray-tan. Q: Do I still need to use sunscreen after a spray-tan? A: Yes you do.  Our products do not contain sunscreen.  We suggest that you wait at least 2-4 hours before applying sunscreen and that you stay away from oil based products
    (especially mineral and petroleum oils). Q: How soon after can I exercise?  A:  Waiting at least 4 hours before rigorous exercise is suggested. Q: What can I do to maintain optimal results? A1:Using a moisturizer containing a small amount of sunless tanner will surely help to extend your beautiful glow.  Avoid exfoliating until a day before your next quickglow session. A2: Try to avoid washing your hands for the first 4 hours after your session (unless they appear to be processing on the darker side.) Q: How do sunless-tanning products work?
