General aftercare advice

If you develop any sort of reaction or skin or nail condition please contact me straight away. this is very uncommon but will need to be seen. reactions are characterised by skin irritations, inflammation around the nail, redness and itching. Most nail conditions are not related to nail treatments and i will try to seek a solution to the problems but if there is any doubt i will ask you to see your gp to refer you to a dermatologist.

 

Spray Tan Care

Spray tans look very natural and even however this will only last on average 5 to 10 days looking perfect. To ensure maximum effect for as long as possible you should follow these simple rules

Before going for a tan

  • exfoliate your skin the day before
  • avoid shaving or waxing for 24 hours before the tan
  • avoid moisturising on the day of the treatment
  • avoid wearing make-up, deodorants or perfume on the day of the tan

For the tan

  • clients can chose to keep bra and knickers on during the treatment as the product is water soluble but MAY stain light coloured clothing disposable knickers/g-strings will be provided
  • it is advisable to wear dark, loose clothing

After care

  • do not swim, bathe, shower or participate in heavy excersise for 2 to six hours to allow tan to develop - over night is recommended
  • Dark coloured towelling is recommended for the initial shower/bath as this is when the colour guide will be removed leaving a glowing tan on the skin
  • moisturise daily
  • pat skin dry after baths or showers rather than rubbing
  • prolonged bathing in the sea or swimming pool can reduce the longevity of the tan
