Your Radiant Glow: A Guide to a Versa Spa Spray Tan

The Versa Spa is an automated spray tanning booth that delivers a fine, even mist of tanning solution to your skin. You'll step into the private booth, and following simple voice prompts, the system will apply the solution. This solution contains a safe, FDA-approved ingredient called dihydroxyacetone (DHA), which reacts with the amino acids in the top layer of your skin to create a natural-looking tan.

The whole process is quick and typically takes just a few minutes inside the booth, plus a short drying time. You'll have complete privacy and control throughout the session.

• It's not instant: While you'll see some immediate cosmetic bronzer for guidance during the application, the full tan will develop over the next 4-8 hours.
• The solution is safe: Our tanning solutions used in the Versa Spa are formulated to be safe for your skin. We can also discuss any allergies or sensitivities you may have before your session.
• You control the shade: The Versa Spa offers various tanning levels to suit your natural skin tone and desired intensity. 
• Wear dark, loose-fitting clothing after your appointment: This will help prevent any rubbing or marking while your tan develops.
• Avoid activities that cause excessive sweating immediately after your tan: Sweat can interfere with the development process.
• Your tan will gradually fade: Just like a natural tan, a spray tan exfoliates away over time, typically lasting 5-10 days depending on your skincare routine.

To ensure you achieve the best possible results from your Versa Spa session, please follow these simple steps before your appointment:

• Exfoliate your skin thoroughly 24 hours before your appointment: This helps to remove dead skin cells and create an even surface for the tanning solution to adhere to. Pay extra attention to dry areas like elbows, knees, and ankles. You can use a gentle scrub or exfoliating mitt.
• Shave or wax at least 24 hours before your appointment: This allows your pores to close and prevents uneven tanning.
• Avoid using bar soaps, oil-based products, or heavy lotions on the day of your appointment: These can create a barrier on your skin and prevent the tanning solution from absorbing properly.
• Come with clean, dry skin: Do not apply any makeup, deodorant, perfume, or moisturizer before your session. These can also interfere with the tanning process.
• Consider wearing dark, loose-fitting clothing and open-toed shoes to your appointment: This will prevent any tight clothing from rubbing against your developing tan.

• Avoid showering, swimming, or any activities that may cause you to sweat heavily for at least 4-8 hours after your session: This allows the tanning solution to fully develop.
• When you do shower, use lukewarm water and a mild, sulfate-free body wash: Gently pat your skin dry with a soft towel. Avoid vigorous rubbing.
• Moisturize your skin daily with a hydrating, oil-free lotion: This helps to keep your skin hydrated and prolongs the life of your tan.
• Avoid using harsh exfoliants or scrubbing your skin: This will cause your tan to fade more quickly.
• Pat your skin dry after showering or swimming instead of rubbing.
• Be mindful of activities that can cause friction, such as tight clothing or vigorous exercise.
• Consider using a tan extender product: These lotions contain a small amount of DHA and can help to maintain your tan's color.
