he next day your tan will continue to develop and we recommend rinsing off 12-24 hours after your spray tan depending on your skin tone and desired results. The time you wait before your first rinse will determine how the tan develops. Most solutions are designed to develop up to 24 hours before rinsing off. Clients with lighter skin tones may prefer to rinse off after 12 hours but your spray tan technician will help you determine how long to wait. If you follow our tips and take it step by step, your tan will develop into a beautiful, golden glow! Make sure to stay hydrated and continue to moisturize after your first rinse. Dry and dehydrated skin will shorten the life of your spray tan. You can use our Norvell pH Balancing Shower wash to help keep your skin hydrated and properly balanced. A few days after your tan you can use the Norvell SunlessTan Extender PROLONG to help keep your spray tan looking radiant and extending the life of the spray tan.
