I get this question a lot.... "What do I wear during an airbrush tanning session?"
This is more about your comfort level then anything else. For the ladies:
A 2 piece bathing suit, underwear with or with out a bra, or for no tan lines.. Nude is your best bet.
* Ladies keep in mind that the garments you wear will become your tan lines so PLEASE Choose your garments wisely. For the gentlemen:
Boxers, underwear, bike shorts, swim trunks etc.
*Guys keep in mind that what you wear will become your tan lines. So choose your garment carefully. :)

PREPARATION TIPS
Before your airbrush Tan:
DO exfoliate, shave or wax and moisturize the night before your application, Not on the day.
DO wear loose, dark clothing. The color guide may rub off onto fabrics but will wash out (it can stain some nylon, silk and lycra).
DON'T wear soft contact lenses during your session.
DON'T use spray tan if you are pregnant or breast-feeding (as a precaution).
DON'T tint eyebrows or eyelashes within 12 hours of a treatment.
DO Shower before your appointment remove make-up, moisturizer, perfume and deodorant before your application. AGAIN... No moisturizers, perfumes, or Deodorants!!!!! Very important to have clean skin with nothing that can block the absorption of the solution.
AFTER YOUR SESSION
We recommend that you:
Leave you spray tan on for at least 8 hours, and overnight if possible, before showering or taking a bath. This gives your tan a chance to develop fully.
Avoid strenuous exercise, as sweating can inhibit the development of your tan. It is advised that you wait at least 5 hours before doing anything that may make you perspire.
Avoid wearing socks or shoes after your tanning session, as again sweating can inhibit the development of your tan. Sandals are a good choice.
Avoid applying moisturizer or deodorants.
Avoid wearing tight clothing for at least 5 hours.
Don't sit on light colored leather or fabrics until you've showered or taken a bath as the color guide can cause discoloration.
Don't shave or wax until 12 hours after your treatment.
Note: lotions containing Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) are used to increase exfoliation; therefore their use will accelerate the fading process of your tan.
