Get A Healthy Summer Glow With Airbrush Spray Tanning

norvell airbrush spray sunless tan austin safe healthy glow skin salon spa bangWhether you are going on vacation, getting married, attending a special event, or simply want to look healthy, a beautiful, natural looking tan is the best way to go without worrying about the harmful effects of traditional bed tanning.

We all know the health risks of too much exposure to UVA/UVB sun rays. Airbrush Spray Tanning is the healthy way to save your skin! You can have that beautiful tan without burning and prematurely aging your skin or increasing the risk of sun exposure-related cancers.

It’s quick! Your session will be complete in 10-15 minutes and you will instantly see that glow everyone is wishing for!

There’s no doubt that everyone looks better with a healthy glow. We will custom design a tanning plan for you based on your natural skin type, tone and budget, so you have a tan that looks like you actually just stepped off the beach! No sunburn and no orange.

DHA?? What is that? Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) is present in plant, human and animal cells. DHA is considered a natural substance found in the human body. When DHA is put on your skin, it interacts with amino acids that create the brown color.

Privacy is a top priority. We have a space specifically for tanning where you will go to change out of your clothing, into your bathing suit, or disposable options available for purchase. Our tanning staff will enter the room once you are ready to begin, conduct the session, and will exit once your tan is completed so that you may dry and re-dress.

An airbrush tan is NOT the same as booth tanning. Our certified tanning staff airbrushes the tanning solution directly onto your body, instructing you on the correct poses to get the best overall even coverage. It’s more than just a front/back approach.

 

Pre-Tan/Post Tan Care

Here are some tips to get the best and longest lasting results:

- DO shower and exfoliate your entire body before your session. You should be free of all make-up, oils, moisturizers, deodorant and perfumes when you arrive for your appointment. Ask about our pre-tanning scrubs!
- DO moisturize your body regularly a few days prior to your tanning session (
not the day of your session) - particularly your hands, feet, elbows and knees as these areas tend to be more dry.
- DO make sure any waxing or shaving is done
at least 8 hours before tanning. This includes facial waxing. All residue should be removed.
- DO wear an older or dark colored bathing suit to tan in. Yes, many prefer to be completely nude for their session, but we understand not everybody is comfortable doing that. Please note that if you do choose to wear a bathing suit, the pre-tan bronzer solution will launder out of most fabrics easily, but may stain light colored items. If you do not have an appropriate bathing suit but are more modest, *ask about disposable thongs, panties, and bras.
- DO tell your tan technician if you have never used a product containing DHA (commonly found in sunless tanners). If you are unsure if you are allergic to DHA, ask for a patch test
24 hours in advance.
- DO wear dark, loose clothing and flip-flops to your appointment. No White clothing nor tight jeans please.

- DO follow our guidelines for post-tan showering. For best results, you will want to wait 8, and preferably 12 hours, before you shower.
-DO apply moisturizer, morning and evening, after your post tanning shower. Ask about our post-tanning products for home use. These are best suited for our tanning product.
- DO use sunscreen. Your airbrush tan does not provide protection against sun exposure.
- DO NOT wear
bras with straps, tight fitting clothing, jewelry (watches, tight necklaces, etc.) until after you shower.
- DO NOT rub your face / other body parts, or apply moisturizer, make-up or other skin products for at least a few hours after your session.
- DO NOT sit directly on leather or light fabric seats and furniture after your tanning session.
Transfer may occur - sit on towel instead — bring a towel for your car seat.
- DO NOT take long hot baths,
shave, soak in the pool or salt water after your tan. This will accelerate exfoliation and fade your tan.
- DO NOT exercise or get wet until
after your post tan shower. Excessive perspiration can hinder the tanning process and lessen the final result of your tan.
- DO NOT use lotions designed for increased exfoliation (ie, Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA), retinol, etc.). Use of these type lotions will accelerate the fading process of your tan.
- DO NOT worry about color run-off during your first post-tan shower! You will notice color washing off the first time you shower. This is just the cosmetic bronzer, not your new tan.
Your skin will continue to tan as the solution develops on your skin and will only come off as your skin exfoliates naturally. This timeframe is different for everyone.

** We have disposable tops & bottoms for guys and gals available for $1/ea.
