Do you want to have that sun kissed glow minus the sun damage that’s included? Sometimes, in the midst of winter, it is nice to achieve a bronzed appearance but it can be hard to determine the way to do that. Spray tanning, otherwise called an airbrush tan, is a fantastic solution for people who want to accomplish a bronzed look all year round without the dangerous risks related to sun exposure.
What is Spray Tanning?
It's safe to acknowledge that everyone looks a bit better with some color on their skin. Airbrush tanning is a technique in which a gentle mist of custom bronze shade is sprayed all over your body so that you can have an even, darker skin tone in only half an hour! The spray tan formula includes a component named Dihydroxyacetone (or DHA) which oxidizes in your skin and creates a darker color. DHA is completely safe for the skin. It is FDA approved and non-toxic.
How Long Does a Spray Tan Last?
A spray tan usually lasts up to fourteen days, depending upon certain lifestyle factors like how often you perspire, swim, or bathe. A spray tan can be controlled and customized, unlike tanning beds and sun tanning. Your personal color technician in Silver Spring, MD
is able to help you opt for the best depth of color for your skin tone and hair color, so that you can achieve the most natural look possible.
An expert airbrush tan application is better at attaining an overall even application than do-it-yourself lotions, mousses, and gels which can be found over the counter. The entire process is quite quick, and will not take more than half an hour. After the formula sets, you're ready to head out and revel in your day! There's no "curing" time involved. However, it is advised for the tan to fully take, not to shower or moisturize at least 24 hours following the appointment.
How do I Get a Spray Tan?
You can conveniently schedule a spray tan appointment from the comfort of your living room, based on your schedule. Our salon in Silver Spring, MD

What Should I do Before Hand?
To ensure the best outcome with your spray tan, then it's best to come to your appointment with completely waxed or shaved body hair. This enables for the best application of this formula onto the skin. It's ideal to come to the salon with fresh skin free of any products, as they may interfere with the tanning process. Some areas like the lips, elbows, knees and ankles, have a inclination to absorb the tanning solution quicker than other areas of the body. These regions may benefit from a little bit of moisturizer before the tanning treatment to ensure an all-over even tone.
