Showering before your tan will cause your ph levels to change and the tan solution to not adhere to your skin. Some parts may accept it while others don’t. I prefer you don’t shower at all on the day of your appointment, but if you must, no shaving or exfoliating whatsoever and give yourself at least 4 hours.
Exfoliate thoroughly; this is the KEY to an even & long lasting tan! I cannot say this enough. This will take off all the dead skin cells, giving your airbrush tan a clean & smooth slate to start with. The day before your appointment you’ll want to shave & exfoliate really well. It will make all the difference!
Don’t wear perfume, lotions or oils the day of your tan. Anything that can create a barrier between you & the sunless solutions will prevent it from adhering to your skin. Makeup is okay to wear the day off but you’ll need to remove it before our session.
Wear your hair up for your appointment as you will be wearing a hair net for our session & remove all jewelry. This includes earrings and body jewelry like belly button rings. You’ll want to keep your hair up and off of your back for the development time and jewelry/body jewelry off too. I have complimentary hair ties and nets available for you.
Wear DARK & LOOSE clothing! Since we’re mobile you’ll have access to all your clothes after our session. For salons though, if you’re coming from work or exercising or anywhere else these clothes won’t work then you’ll want to bring a change of clothes. We recommend baggy t-shirts & sweatpants or gym shorts. No underwear, bra or panties. Wear sandals or slip ons without socks. Constricting clothing can cause lines in your tan & bronzers can transfer onto lighter clothing before your first rinse. If some is transferred, our solutions come out easily in the wash. After your rinse shower your color will not budge!
Shaving will definitely take your color off so that's why it's important to shave 24 hrs before your tan appointment and then wait as long as you can after your session to shave again.
If you completely forgot to exfoliate the day before, or you just showered, and your appointment is in an hour just be honest & I will let you reschedule at no extra cost. Don't waste your money & no offense, my reputation attempting to see how it turns out. I will know anyways because the solution will act different on your skin and make it harder for me to airbrush you, but by then I'll have to attempt to make the best out of it. It's really a pain & waste of both our time. I definitely understand life gets busy & things like that are easy to forget.
You'll want to take care or all other beauty treatments before your airbrush tan session. Getting your nails done, facials & other esthetic treatments, and waxing. If you go to any of these appointments after your tan you run the risk of getting streaks or spots and stripping your color. Just like shaving, waxing takes off layers of your skin as well.
Wait to shower for 8-12 hours after your session. For your first shower, it should be more of a rinse. Stand under lukewarm water until the bronzer stops showing up in the water. You can help it with your hands but no washcloths or loofahs! ALWAYS PAT YOURSELF DRY! You can return back to normal showers your next one. For the entire time you have an airbrush tan I highly recommend cutting back on showering, making it short, & using lukewarm water. I also have a special body wash available to buy that keeps your color longer because it's made by the same company as the sunless tan solution I use to airbrush you.
Do not apply makeup for at least 4 hours after your tan. Take a look at your beauty routine & what you use on your face. Skip the exfoliants and any harsh chemicals that might fade or strip you of your color. If you contour your face using a sunless bronzer that's ok, just don’t go overboard and end up looking orange with cheaper products, or not matching your airbrush tan. I have tan extending lotion available for purchase with a mild DHA percentage in it made by the same company who makes the sunless tan solution I use to airbrush you. This would be ideal & you could use it all over if you want to add color or keep your color going longer.
For the first 8-12 hours, you need to avoid sweating altogether! After that, cut back on excessive sweating from intensive workouts. Cardio may not be the best workout for the avid airbrush tanner!
Avoiding chlorine and seawater will guarantee a long lasting tan. You don’t need to miss out on any fun though, if you must swim in the pool, hot tub or ocean just make it short & rinse off the chlorine or saltwater in a lukewarm shower immediately following your swim.
No touching or rubbing your skin. Avoid cuddling, crying & RAIN at all costs. If it’s a rainy day, be prepared with an umbrella. When you’re a Mom, it’s hard to avoid touching your children. Just be mindful! I recommend putting a black sheet or towel over your regular sheets when you sleep at night if you haven’t rinsed off the bronzer yet.
Next to exfoliation, this is the most vital step to a perfect & long lasting tan! Starting the day after your appointment you’ll want to start moisturizing 2 X a day! Everyday! Dead skin cells are constantly coming off your body even though you can’t see them. Keeping your skin moisturized will prevent this as much as possible. It will keep your skin glowing & your color to last longer. if your tan lasts under 7 days you’ll need to start moisturizing more!
Schedule your next tan at least 2 days before any special event
Exfoliating removes dead skin cells so it will definitely strip layers of your color. Soap, especially Dove will also do this. I recommend a gentle & moisturizing body wash. Also, wash yourself with your hands instead of using a loofah or washcloth. When you're ready to take the tan off to prepare for your next airbrush tan these would be great ways to do so.

The sunless tanning solutions I use, Sjolie, are not only made with all naturally derived ingredients, but they're vegan and cruelty-free! Also, gluten free, paraben free and erythrulose, urea & mineral free! They're made in small batches to guarantee the freshest DHA & other ingredients! Sunbathing is not only bad for your skin, but also dangerous! Spray tan booths are messy & inconsistent! Plus, who knows what solutions are being used. My airbrush tans are guaranteed GREAT for your skin! There's no such thing as an orange tan with my solutions. Plus, it's near impossible to get streaks. The molecules melt together on your skin so nicely that you won't even see bikini lines just hours after your tan. All you have to do is follow a few pre-care & after care instructions such as exfoliating & moisturizing & you'll get & keep a beautiful, natural looking & long-lasting glow!
Airbrush tans can last anywhere from 5 to 10 days. It all depends on how good you exfoliated prior to your tan & how well you take care of your skin and moisturize! A new product you might choose to use is called hydrofirm. It’s a spray that goes on after your tan & leaves your skin feeling silky smooth. It extends the life of your tan & keeps color from transferring to your clothes. just ask us to use it!
Zero! I know women who have gotten an airbrush tan while breastfeeding, although you should always talk to your doctor first. All the ingredients in Namaste Naked’s sunless solutions are non-toxic, organic, vegan & PETA approved. Erythrulose, mineral & paraben free. Infused with aloe Vera for added moisture. Our solutions are suitable for even the most sensitive of skin. Not only are our airbrush tans NOT a risk to your health like every other way you can get a tan, they are GOOD for your skin!
After your tan application we will dry you off for a bit & then apply a finishing powder which has a shimmer & smells amazing! That helps to lock in your tan & get rid of any sticky feeling. We also have a hydrofirm spray upgrade that leaves your skin feeling like silk and prevents the transfer of color on clothes. The most popular reason customers choose hydrofirm is that it extends the life of your tan. In any case, if some color gets onto your clothes it comes out easily in the wash in my experience.
A spray tan cannot be an airbrush tan, however an airbrush tan is a spray tan! Confusing? A spray tan is when you go into one of those booths and the wall shoots out this sunless solution all over you. NOT an airbrush tan. An airbrush tan is when a certified artist spray tans you by hand using the right equipment and high quality solution. I hope that makes sense.
This happens when too much DHA is used or it’s not of good quality. Rest assured, our solutions will NOT turn you orange!
First we'll have a small consultation regarding your skin, it's tone & your color preferences. There are some forms if you're a new customer. Next I'll have you change into whatever is most comfortable for you while i set up & mix your custom airbrush solution. You can wear your own swim suit, my disposables or go nude. It's completely up to you. If you have an event coming up I'd consider tan lines though. Next I'll prepare you for the airbrush tan with a hair net, nose plugs, barrier cream and sticky feet. I supply these free of charge. We'll start the tan now. I'll ask you to move around a bit and hold your arms up. We'll blow air from the machine to help dry you off before we finish with an amazing finishing powder that literally makes you glow & smells delicious. This helps with any sticky feeling, and locks in your tan. I'd wait another 10 min before you dress, or since you'll be at home stay naked as long as possible! We'll schedule
A bronzer works like a colored cosmetic to provide a tan color instantly. A sunless tanner takes time to develop but lasts longer. It contains a reactive material like dihydroxyacetone (DHA) as the tanning agent. DHA combines with amino acids and proteins found in your skin to create the color of the sunless tan. Unlike natural tans that come from melanin, the color that develops from sunless tanners only occurs in the skin's outermost layer. Nowadays, sunless tanning products contain a bronzing agent in combination with DHA. The bronzer helps ensure an even application and provides instant color in the short-term. While the DHA generates color that arises more slowly but lasts substantially longer!
DHA stands for dihydroxyacetone. It’s a sugar derivative that reacts with the amino acids in your skin to produce melanoidins, which are brown pigments that give your skin a tan-like appearance. DHA doesn’t penetrate beyond the top layer of your skin, making it a safe and effective way to achieve a tan without exposing yourself to the sun.
Yes of course! I have disposable boxers for men as well!

As long as you're not an animal shelter or daycare, we can manage. We will want to keep them away from the tent because of the overspray and sometimes the noise of the machine can be too much for them. I suggest a baby gate if they won"t stay in another room. i have a husky and 3 children of my own including a 10 mos. old so I promise, we'll manage. The only thing to be aware of is that you obviously won't want to pick them up and hold them or cuddle for a while & that could be upsetting for them. However, we're Moms & we figure it out!
