Spray Booths
A spray-on tanning booth is much like a carefully engineered shower. The client steps into an enclosed area and is literally showered in a matter of seconds with a fine mist of spray-on tanning solution from one or multiple spraying apparatus. The advanced technology is designed so that the spray tanning product attracts to the skin, delivering uniform coverage.

Hand Spray
Spray-on tanning is also available in simple hand-held air brushing units. This type of equipment allows a trained technician to customize the application of the product.
DHA
The primary ingredient used in most spray-on tanning equipment today is called dihydroxyacetone (DHA). DHA, a colorless sugar, interacts with the outermost layer of the skin to darken skin color in a period of several hours. It takes about 12-24 hours for the DHA in your skin to reach its full tanning potential and a spray-on tan can last as long as 7-10 days.
Notice
Spray-on tanning does not offer any photoprotection (sunburn protection).
