As summer approaches, I get more requests from clients that want to receive the darkest possible spray tan. Even though it’s the beginning of June, this sends shivers down my spine. I always want to accommodate my customers but know that applying a darker shade will not necessarily give the desired result.
Remember the goal of a spray tan is to look pretty and natural. I always try to advise clients that a darker color of solution may not look natural on certain skin tones.
Spray Tan History
When spray tanning was first introduced, solutions were manufactured without different base colors. The quality of the end results were not great. As spray tanning grew in popularity over the years and more time and money was spent on advancing the formula of solutions, base colors were discovered.
