Frequently Asked Questions

Will I go orange?

Absolutely not! Naked Tan comes in two different shades to choose from. A more natural sun kissed look can be achieved or you can obtain a darker tan similar to one achieved when on a tropical holiday. The choice is yours.

Does the developing process continue after I have a shower?

Yes, you now have the convenience of showering only 2hrs after your salon spray tan. You will continue to develop a deeper, darker tan long after you have showered. So now you can shower and your tan won’t be affected, in actual fact it will continue developing even up to 24hrs after your initial shower in some cases.

Is spray tanning safe?

Yes spray tanning is the safe alternative to obtaining a gorgeous tan. It is UVB/UVA free and does not damage or age the skin. As the skin cells naturally exfoliate off so does the tan.

I have sensitive skin, can I still be sprayed?

Naked Tan natural botanical tan contains no harsh chemicals or ALCOHOL or PARABENS and is the safe alternative and can be used by clients with sensitive skin types. A patch test can also be done.

How long does it take to be sprayed?

A tan is complete within 10mins! And with Naked Tan natural sunless tan solution you can shower as little as 2HRS after your tan. That’s amazingly exciting news for the indulgent tanners. No more having to wear the tan to bed all nite, you can shower and be fresh when you hit the pillow tonight and you will awaken with a gorgeous tan and clean sheets and a happy husband/boyfriend!

How long will my tan last?

The colour lasts up to 10 days and exfoliates away naturally with the dead skin  cells. Keeping your skin well moisturised will prolong your tan.

Can pregnant or breastfeeding women be sprayed?

Yes, however if concerned we suggest you seek permission from your doctor. If breastfeeding make sure nipples are wiped before breastfeeding  bub.

Do I have to take all of my clothes off?

Absolutely not, clients may wear whatever they feel comfortable in during their session. A client may wear their bikini, underwear, g-string or they can go naked if they wish.

When I have my first shower I have noticed some colour washing away?

Yes this excess colour that is washing away is the bronzer and is fine. Your natural colour will be developed within the skin cells and will continue to deepen and last at least a week.

How often should I moisturize after being spray tanned?

The more the better! This will ensure your tan fades evenly while keeping your skin well nourished. You will also have a longer lasting tan.

Is it best to shave my legs/body parts before or after the tan application?

Best to shave or wax at least 8 hours prior to your spray tan.

Can I be sprayed twice in the same day?

Yes, as you can shower 2hrs after your Naked Tan you can continue to spray many times throughout the day which is cutting edge for the body building industry.

Does the spray tan get applied to the face?

Yes. A lighter spray is applied to the face to blend the tan and making the tan look natural.

Will tanning solution stain my clothes or sheets?

We suggest cotton fabrics as the bronzer will wash out. Anything synthetic such as silk or rayon will need to be taken to the dry cleaners to be cleaned.

Can I wear makeup?

Yes! You have the option with Naked Tan to wear makeup or you can come to the salon fresh faced and in 2HRS when you shower, throw on that gorgeous party dress, hair makeup and out the door you go!

Hot tubs and swimming pools affect a tan?

A tan will not be as long lasting if you are soaking for long periods of time as this makes the skin cells exfolliate rapidly and therefore the tan is removed quicker.

Are there any harmful chemicals in the tanning solution?

Naked Tan tanning solution is natural and contains no harsh chemicals,NO PARABENS or ALCOHOL. You can feel confident you are being cared for when using Naked Tan.

Natural Nail Acrylic Overlay

The nail overlay involves applying a layer of acrylic on top of your natural nails. There is no tip applied to extend the nail length. This gives your own nails the look and strength of artificial nails without adding any length. A colour of your choice is applied to your nails.

Tips & Acrylic Overlay

This is where artificial nails are glued to the free edge of your existing nails to give them length. A layer of acrylic is then applied to the length of your nails. The nails are then trimmed and shaped to your desired style.
You can choose white or natural tips with a clear gel coating. Coloured nail polish of your choice can also be applied to your nails. This is the most common service as it gives your nails a stunning look at the length that you desire.

Acrylic In-fills

As your natural nail grows, a small gap results between your cuticle and the acrylic on your nail bed. The in-fill closes the gap leaving your nails looking fresh, natural and beautiful.
The acrylic applied to your nails slowly deteriorates with each passing day. In-fills are highly recommended every two to three weeks, to keep the acrylic strong and prevent lifting, cracking, and deterioration of the acrylic nails.

Permanent French Tips

This procedure is similar to the Tips & Acrylic Overlay above except that the white powder is applied on the edge of the nail’s tip then a pink powder is applied from the cuticle line to the rest of the nail.
The end result is a fresh clean permanent French manicure.
A beautiful way to complete your look!

Party Nails

Party nails are also known as temporary nails. Tips are applied to the full nail bed and then filed and shaped to your desired length. There is no acrylic applied to the nail, therefore the nails will only last up to 7 days. Choose a colour of your choice.
Remember that you must be extremely careful with your nails as there is no acrylic to strengthen them. These are popular for formals and special events. We suggest you have your nails done the day before to reduce the chance of losing any of your nails.

Manicures

First your cuticles are tidied and your fingernails are cut and shaped. Hands are soaked in lukewarm cleansing solution, scrubbed well.
This is followed by gentle hand massage to relax you, finished by your nails being polished to perfection.

Artificial Nail Removal

Removal of all artificial nails by soaking and softly buffing away the acrylic and finishing with a colour of your choice.
