Using A Sun Tan Spray Booth

By Haywood Hunter


In the 1960s health authorities announced that sun exposure could lead to skin cancer and other health problems. Therefore, fake tanning has become increasingly popular. A spray on tan at a sun tan spray booth will be available at your local beauty salon.



Tanning sprays contain the active ingredient DHA. DHA does not stain or affect skin pigments; it created a chemical reaction with the top lay of the skin, which are dead skin cells. This chemical reaction darkens the color of the skin in the same way as the sun does. Good spray tan solutions have other ingredients that create a natural color, as some spray can make the skin too orange in color.

Before entering the booth there are certain things that should be done in order to get the best results. The beauty salon should have facilities in place and give you advice and products that will help you get the most even and natural looking tan possible.



Fist of all exfoliate your skin in the shower. This is because your skin will contain flaking dead skin cells that are due to come off. The DHA will react to these flaking cells, so when they do come off you will have an uneven tan because the skin underneath will not have reacted with the DHA. It is important to concentrate on exfoliating difficult areas, such as elbows, knees and ankles.

After exfoliating the skin will need dehydrating. A moisturizing lotion can be applied all over the body. This helps the tan look smooth, even and natural. It is also good to moisturize regularly in between tans to keep skin healthy and the tan looking natural.

Most people prefer to be naked in the spray tan booth so that the entire body is spray tanned. Some may wear underwear but the spray may stain it. The solution is ok if it enters the eyes as sprays have been tested and are not an irritant. It is also not an irritant to any other parts of the body.

While the tanning is taking place, be careful not to inhale the solution, even though it is not harmful if ingested. DHA is harmless is ingested in moderate qualities, and it has also been used as an dietary supplement and it is non-carcinogenic. DHA is in fact less toxic that caffeine, aspirin and salt.

There is no need to cover the hair when you are inside the sun tan spray booth as hair follicles are not affected by DHA. However, many people prefer to wear a shower cap anyway. Once the spraying is complete you only need to dry of with a towel. Any tanning solution that comes off is only the excess and you will not experience streaks or an uneven tan as a result. It can take one to two days for the tan to fully appear and will last approximately five days. You .can return to the beauty clinic after five days to top up your tan
