DHA is a non-toxic ingredient that isn’t thought to go beyond the outer layer of the skin. It isn’t absorbed into the body and therefore should not harm your baby. However, we advise that all pregnant mommas bring or email a list of the ingredients in our solution for their doctor for approval. We have tanned many mothers throughout multiple pregnancies and all are perfectly beautiful and healthy.

As often as you’d like! Most of our clients are on membership and get tanned once a week. We do suggest at least seven days in between each tan, and exfoliating well between each session.

The places you should focus on exfoliating are the places where your tan will fade firstl; like your neck, the crease of your arm between the bicep and forearm, your underarm, and around your bra area (especially if your wear a tight bra or you sweat a lot at a gym).

Exfoliate every couple of days with something gentle and moisturize your skin with the correct product. Different moisturizing products can actually deteriorate the life of your tan. Because our products are all natural, we recommend an all-natural moisturizer and we offer it here at the spa.

Sessions usually take roughly 30 minutes.

Wear Dark, loose clothing; such as pajamas for after your session

Our spray tan won’t make you look like a carrot…custom spray tans are applied by a trained professional who will choose a solution based on your skin tone and type to achieve your desired color.

The sunless tanner dihydroxyacetone (DHA) is currently the most popular way of gaining a tan-like appearance without sun exposure, as it carries fewer health risks than any of the other available methods. To date, it is the only active ingredient approved by U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for sunless tanning.

All effective sunless tanning contain DHA. It is a colorless, three-carbon sugar that , when applied to the skin, causes a chemical reaction with the amino acids in the surface cells of the skin producing a darkening effect. DHA does not damage skin, as it only affects the outermost cells of the epidermis (stratum corneum)
