When you book your tan, I will send across some preparation and after care guides, you can also find them on this website.

At least 24 hours prior to your first appointment, we will need to carry out a patch test, this only takes about 5 mins and is just to ensure that it is safe to carry out the full tan. You can either visit me in Tilehurst, or I can post a kit for you to apply yourself.

Once in the appointment, I will discuss with you your desired result, I will then assess your skin type and tone and suggest the best match for you.

I will then ask you to remove any make up or deodorant (if you haven't already done so), I will invite you to apply some barrier cream on the dry skin areas so your hands, feet and knees and elbows.

I will give you your hair net and disposable thong, as well as 'sticky feet' to ensure there is no accidental transfer of tan. 

Then we are ready to tan!

The tanning machine is quite noisy, it sounds like a loud hoover going so don't be alarmed when you hear it. I will guide you as to the positions to stand to get the best coverage, the tan actually only takes about 12-15 minutes.

I then dry your skin a little with a warm air blower and if you have selected the setting powder, I will apply it at the end of the tan (£3 for Setting Powder all over).

Of course please feel free to ask me any questions either before, during or after the tan and I will be happy to help!
