How Do You Use A VersaSpa Spray Tan Booth?
There are several models of VersaSpa spray tan booths, and they all come with different functions. So, if you have just bought one for yourself, you need to study the instruction manual first. In there, you’ll find the procedure to use it. However, if you’re going to get a spray tan in a spa or salon, you’ll be briefed on how to use it.
Before you visit a spray tan booth, you need to shave and exfoliate your skin. Before you go into the booth, you have to wear a plastic hat to protect your hair and a pair of goggles to protect your eyes. Also, you have to choose your tanning option.
- The whole body
- Only the legs
- The torso and the limbs (The whole body excluding the face).
In addition, you have to choose your tan intensity too. Choose from light, medium, dark, and very dark. After that, you can go inside the booth and get tanned. Come out and wait for up to 12 hours for the tan to develop fully. Before it develops, don’t take a shower, don’t wear tight clothes, don’t work out, or engage in rigorous activities.
How Long Does A VersaSpa Tan Take To Develop?
After taking a tan, you’ll have to wait for about 8 -12 hours for the tan to develop. However, you’ll already have a beautiful tan before then, but it could clean off if you wear tight clothes. If you take a shower, water or soap could also wash it off. During this period, if you work out or engage in any rigorous activities, your sweat could wash it off.
You have to wait for about 8 -12 hours before you’re able to engage in all the activities listed above. You don’t want to wash off your tan.
How Long Does VersaSpa Spray Tan Last?
Your spray tan will last for about 6 to 7 days. However, it also depends on your chosen formulation and the condition of your skin. Nevertheless, it will take about 7 – 9 days for the tan to last. This is why we usually advise those that want to maintain their tan to go for a spray tan every 9 -12 days. You can extend it slightly by applying a moisturizer to your body every day.
How To Take Care Of Spray Tan Equipment
Like other kinds of machines, your spray tan booth and other equipment need proper maintenance to make them last longer. Here are some important tips.
1. Read The Manual
It is important to study the manual of your booth before you start using it. The manual will give you all the necessary information. It also helps you avoid common mistakes.
2. Clean The Glass
While spraying the tanner, some of them will splash on the surface of the glass. Gradually, the glass will get covered with tanner, and it can be unsightly. So, you have to clean the glass every day after the last spray tan session.
3. Clean The Spray Guns Or Nozzles
Try to clean your spray guns (if you use them) or the nozzles of your spray tan booth regularly. Over time, they will get clogged with tanning solutions, and this can affect their performance. So, it is necessary to clean them every day too.
Final Thoughts
Depending on the size and functions of your preferred VersaSpa spray tan booth, you can get it for about $3,999 to $16,000. If you can’t afford a new one, you can opt for a refurbished one. One thing is certain. You’ll recoup your investment within a short time.
