Before your session...
~Make sure these appointments are done BEFORE your session please; Mani/pedi, Waxing 24-48hrs ahead of time, Hair coloring if its an all over color.

~Exfoliate your body head to toe with a Non-oil based exfoliate or Rami mitt and a  gentle SLS free body wash. If time allows Exfoliate more than once before your session, especially if you do not do it regularly. Please stay away from soap especially Dove, deodorant bars and other highly commercialized products.
~Make sure you have No Deodorant, lotion or Makeup on your skin please remove soon as possible and not right before your session. To much residue can be left behind by facial products.
~If you have sensitive skin please let us know before your session, If you are pregnant inform us as well especially if you are not showing yet.
~Make sure to have LOOSE dark clothes for after out n ready so you don't have to dig thru your stuff after your tan.
~If you are having a salon appointment please remember to have an umbrella with you just in case and no tight fitting shoes; no boots, tennis shoes.

Your session and After care...
~When I arrive please have all jewelry off, hair pulled up and off face and neck.
~Have your after clothes ready to go
~You may use a fan or a hair dryer to dry quicker if you wish but drying time is not long.
~When you take your post shower please refrain from hot showers; fades the tan quicker and dries out your skin! Pat dry with your towel and have a high quality lotion ready use head to toe. Stay away from anti-aging or Acne products they are designed to remove dead skin...fade your tan quick!
~Avoid exfoliants, hot tubs and excessive swimming and sweating can also fade it quicker. Its best to take a shower right after working out to get the sweat off our skin, same with chlorine or salt water.
~The better you prepare and care for your tan will determine how long it will last. Many of my clients tell me on average one session last about 7-10 days then its time to scrub it off.

A few of my favorite things...
~some great clothes to wear afterwards are drawstring type bottoms, loose fitting hoodie, tank tops, v-neck short sleeve t's, flip-flops, Loose slide type of shoes.

~Buy high quality body products NOT cheap ones that are filled with chemicals there is a reason those products are cheap...cheap goes in the bottle! look for ones that are free of Petro-chemicals, Sodium Laureth/lauryl Sulfates or SLS's, Parabens, BHT.  I advise this even when you don't have your tan your skin will thank you for it!! If you need any help let me know be happy to.
