Spray Tanning Service

I am Katie Nelson, Professional Spray Tan Artist, specializing in flawless custom spray tans. I only use the highest quality FDA-approved DHA-based sunless tanning solution to assure you receive the safest all-natural healthy glow possible. No streaks. No orange. Natural-looking tans.

I want to provide a perfect tanning experience to my clients and help them feel and look beautiful with a healthier alternative to UV tanning. A spray tan can make you look healthier and leaner and disguise cellulite, blemishes, and other skin imperfections. Dermatologists recommend spray tanning because it is UV-free and safer than tanning beds or laying out in the sun.

Looking and feeling fabulous is just a Spray Tan away! Spray tans can be offered in the privacy of your home or our studio! Your healthy tan is waiting for you; book an appointment today.

How to Prepare

Exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate! Using an exfoliating glove or mitt (not a scrub product), exfoliate your entire body from head to toe. Pay special attention to dry areas like feet, knees, elbows, neck, underarms, and back of arms. The best way to exfoliate is to use a mitt specifically for exfoliation. You will want to avoid scrubs and loofahs, as most scrubs are oil-based and will hinder your spray tan from developing properly.
If you are sunburnt or have been sunburnt or in a tanning bed in the last 4-6 weeks, consider canceling or rescheduling your spray tan.
Shave at least 8 hours before the appointment.
Discontinue the use of any retinol or retinoids.
Discontinue the use of any washes with sulfates.
Keep your skin hydrated. Drink lots of water! Avoid lotions with mineral oil or petroleum.
Discontinue using any bar soap, Dove, or Dial products. These will disrupt the pH balance of your skin and result in an uneven tan, patchiness, and sometimes orange results.
Ensure all manicures, pedicures, waxing, facials, and massages are done at least the day before your appointment. The oils used during these services will create a barrier between your skin and the spray tan application, resulting in an uneven glow.
Pregnant? Congrats! We spray all pregnant women after the first trimester is complete.

On the day of your spray tan, you will want to avoid all lotions, perfumes, makeup, and deodorants. If your appointment is later in the day, you can wash off your makeup as soon as possible and splash your face with cold water. This will help your pores to close.
Take a shower – but just a cool water rinse. Any soaps, shampoos, or conditioners that get on your skin the day of your tan may leave a residue and impede the sunless tanning process by leaving a film on your skin that will result in a blotchy tan.
During your tan, you can dress to your comfort level. Swimsuits, bras and underwear, just underwear, and nude are all acceptable. I also offer a disposable thong. Whichever you choose is fine. Please remember that whatever you wear will result in those tan lines.

After your spray tan, you will want to wear loose, dark clothing and open-toed shoes. No bra, no socks. Once you do your initial rinse, there are no clothing restrictions.
You will want to avoid getting wet and sweating during your processing time. Even something as simple as the rain or your pet licking you can ruin the outcome of your spray tan. Another thing you will want to avoid is touching your skin. This can cause transfer during the developing time and result in an unwanted tan on the palms of your hands.
Rapid rinse solution must be rinsed off at the time your specialist suggests (this will be 2-5 hours after you are sprayed).
Your first rinse will be just that, a rinse! No soap. You will want to use your hand and help usher the bronzer off your skin. Don’t forget parts like your neck, face, and underarms. It may look like your tan is coming off in the shower, but it is not, I promise! When you get out of the shower, pat dry with your towel. Do not rub; this will cause your tan to fade faster. Get yourself a good body wash to compliment your spray tans, such as Dr. Bronner’s, Native, or CeraVe.
Moisturizing is key to maintaining your spray tan for as long as you possibly can. You will want to moisturize morning and night. And don’t forget to stay hydrated. Drink your water!!
Avoid over-showering, long hot showers and baths, chlorine, loofahs, and exfoliants of any kind for 5-7 days. Keep in mind that the act of soaking and scrubbing during any nail treatments will remove the tan on the legs and feet.
Apply sunscreen. Be sure to use a cream, not a spray. Safe sun care is a must!
