It's best to wear loose sweat pants and a loose t-shirt or sweatshirt. Absolutely NO jeans, socks, or leggings. Wait until after your first initial shower to wear these. Ladies, I also recommend to keep your bra straps down after your session.

Usually, you will begin to notice results after a few tanning sessions, but it may take a few weeks of regular tanning (at least 3-4 times a week) to get the colour you are looking for. If you are developing a base tan before going on a holiday, you would want to start tanning about three to four weeks before you go.

TIP #1. Beyond that, it's best to wait 24 hours before washing your hair. This will give your tan time to set fully. Showering and washing your hair too soon can result in washing your tan away in areas where the water hits, leaving you with a streaky tan.

And again, after 6-10 hours, you'll definitely want to shower it off. This isn't our preferred way to do it, but hey, some of you might not have a choice. Ok so there you have it. Be sure to leave your self tanner on for at least 6-10 hours to see the best results.

The bottom line is that if you're using any sort of self-tanner or tanning lotion with a bronzer in it, you want to wait 2-3 hours after application, or your tanning session, before you shower. This will ensure that the bronzers and self-tanners have adequate time to work, and will have fully set on the skin.

Avoid direct sunlight for at least two to three weeks, and use sunscreen when you do receive sun exposure. Skip deodorant for at least three days if you've received laser hair treatment under your arms. Wear only mineral makeup for the first 48 hours after treatment, or let your face go bare.

For best results, you should tan regularly, but not every day. We recommend waiting 36-48 hours between visits so your tan can fully develop, which equates to no more than 2 – 3 times a week. That's plenty of tanning for building and maintaining your base glow. Getting the most out of your tan at Sun Tan City is easy.

If you wax too closely to your tanning appointment, the hair follicles won't have time to close properly, and you'll be left with a polka dot effect – not cute. If you can wait 48 hours, even better, but to be on the safe side, have a (brief!) cold shower before tanning just to give your pores a chance to close.

We recommend skipping 1 or 2 days in between sessions to allow your skin's melanin production to fully develop prior to continued exposure. If you feel you need to tan 2 days in a row, decrease your minutes to prevent overexposure.

Burn recovery usually takes a few hours, or, likely, overnight, or even up to three days, in my experience. * correct term, melanin, inserted here, with thanks to Aly Michele.
