Pre/Post tan care
Do’s and don’ts, and best ways to take care of their tan
- If you prefer shaving over other hair removal techniques, this is best done 24 hours prior to your spray tan appointment. If you shave too close to your appointment, tanning solution can settle in your pores and cause a black speckled look. By shaving at least 24 hours before the solution is applied gives your skin plenty of time to recover.
- If you forgot to shave well in advance and realize it a couple of hours before your appointment, you’re better off waiting 24 hours after your appointment to shave. LUXE tans continue to develop for 24 hours after getting sprayed so you want to hold off on anything, like shaving, that could disrupt the tan from achieving its full potential. Once the 24 hours is up and you do begin to shave, be sure to use a new, sharp razor and skip the shaving cream and opt for your clear sulfate-free body wash instead. Just keep in mind, each time you shave you will be removing a little bit of the tan. If you are a daily shaver, backing off to every other day or every three days will help keep your tan fresh and glowing.
