When special events come up, people tend to want to look their best. For many, this includes sporting a healthy tan, which is achievable even if you don't have time to tan outside naturally. Learn more below about why people visit tanning salons before events.

Why People Spray Tan Before Events

Visiting a tanning salon is a great way to boost your self-esteem when you need to dress up for an event. Tanning salons enable you to get a full body tan that is consistent and even-toned. Tanning outside can be dangerous since the sun's rays are out of your control and can tan you unevenly and inconsistently and make you more vulnerable to conditions like melanoma. Visiting a tanning salon lessens these risks, giving you a safe environment to achieve a healthy bronze glow.

When Tanning Salons Recommend Getting a Spray Tan

Tanning salons recommend getting their services two to three days before your event to ensure your skin has a fresh glow and the tan has time to set in. Tanning solution requires at least four to eight hours to properly set into your skin, and you want to make sure you give it time before going out for a special occasion. You will also want to have it done days in advance, so you have time to wipe off any excess bronzer or guide color you may have used to achieve your tan.
