How to prepare for your spray tan

 The night before your appointment…
Completely exfoliate the night prior to your sunless application with SJOLIE sugar scrub and Shave. It is best to avoid lotion if possible, if you must use only a water based lotion, and rinse before your appointment. Do not use an oil based exfoliate or lotions.
​
​What to wear to your appointment
Please wear loose clothing to your appointment. No leggings or tight pants. This will displace coloring.  You may dress as you wish after your first shower 8-12 hours after your application. You may not want to wear a bra until after your first shower to avoid potential displacement of solution, especially if a strapless look is needed. 
What to wear during your appointment
You may wear whatever you like during your application. You may be topless, strapless or as you wish on your upper body but you must wear an undergarment of your choice (black is best). Swimsuit or bra and panties for example. 
​After your Sunless Application
You can expect your appointment to last about 25 minuites. After the application we will Let the application dry before you get dressed  using fan or dryer or both.  The technician can help you with this process.
The bronzing agent in the tanning solution may stain silk or leather or possibly rub off on white bed sheets so use precautions to avoid staining by placing a darker layer on top. This is only necessary until your first shower.

​How to care for your tan

​The tan will develop gradually during the 8-12 hours after you have been sprayed.  Do not shower after your application for at least 8-12 hours following the application. Water is the enemy of a fresh spray tan. (The longer you can wait, the better.) If it is raining please plan accordingly.  Your first shower should be a warm water rinse only.  During your first shower, you will notice a tea color in the water; this is the bronzing agent that acts as a color guide for the application process. The remaining color on the skin is the result of the DHA action on your skin.
1. Use only your hands to wash your body. We suggest SJOLIE Body wash. A loofah or washcloth will accelerate skin exfoliation. Bar soaps like Dove are not recommended. 
2. Apply lotion twice a day, we suggest SJOLIE Tan extend lotion
​3. Pat don't rub your skin dry.
​4. Don't exfoliate your skin until your tan is gone.
4. Keep hydrated with plenty of water.
​5. Book your next appointment!
