Everyone seems to want that perfect dark natural looking tan for that special Saturday event. Spray tanning is a safe alternative to tanning in any form of UV light and only takes minutes to get a sunless uvfree tan. However, one of the biggest misconceptions is that you can spray tan the same day of your event and have the best tan results possible, all though you will see an increase in tanning results, the best results come from pre-planning.
We wanted to take a quick moment to help you pick the best possible day to tan for your event, that way you can plan ahead and achieve the best tanning salon results.
Best Day to Spray Tan for Best Results
Monday
Spray tanning on Monday will give you the best overall results on Wednesday, assuming that you get your spray tan early. If you have an airbrush tan at 8pm on Monday night, the best results would then be seen on Thursday. Getting a sunless tan on Monday would not offer the best results for a Saturday natural glow.
Tuesday
If you stop in to Extreme Tan and Smoothies for a sunless spray tanning session on Tuesday you can count on seeing the best results on Thursday, or Friday depending if you tan early on Tuesday. I would recommend spray tanning on Tuesday vs a Friday for any Saturday event, use a tan extending moisturizer like Stay Dark to extend the life of your spray tan.
Wednesday
Spray tanning on Wednesday offers excellent results and almost doubles your event exposure ability. Early Wednesday uvfree tanners will see excellent results on Friday and Saturday, if your appointment is later on Wednesday it will give you the maximum dark tan for Friday and Saturday events. Wednesday is an optimal day for spray tanning.
Spray Tan Results Picture
Thursday
All though many people believe that spray tanning late on Thursday evening will generate the best spray tan results for a Saturday it actually would create the best results for Sunday morning and afternoon.
Friday
As stated above we would not recommend getting a spray tan or mobile airbrush tanning session on a Friday for a Saturday event as it would generate the best tanning results on Monday.
Saturday
We understand that sometimes you have no choice but to spray tan on Saturday, we suggest getting the earliest appointment possible as many skin types won’t show the results of bronzer after initially showering.
There you have it, based on the information above it looks like your best days for achieving the best sunless uvfree tan results is Wednesday, followed up by Thursday and Tuesday.
Keep in mind it’s always important to do a few things before you spray tan, and it’s even more important to take care of your spray tan so you get the best results and it breaks down evenly.
