Schedule your appointment two days before your special event to allow your tan to fully develop, one day before leaving on vacation.

The final result of your tan is dependent on proper prep and aftercare. Please follow our tan prep and aftercare instructions for best results and to avoid tan development issues. https://www.thebronzebrand.com/tanprepandcare

Around 20 minutes - this includes consultation, time to undress/dress, and application. The application process takes around 10 minutes. We’ll guide you step-by-step through a series of poses followed by full body drying and finishing touches.

SIGNATURE BRONZE: Rinse after 8+ hours, can be slept in overnight for later appointments. Choose your shade: LIGHT, MEDIUM, DARK EXPRESS BRONZE: Contains a higher % of the active tanning ingredient allowing you to rinse off in 2-6 hours depending on your desired result - the longer, the darker. You must be able to rinse at your suggested rinse time to avoid overdeveloping. Suggested rinse times: 2HRS LIGHT, 4HRS MEDIUM, 6HRS DARK Keep in mind, express does not mean faster color, just a faster rinse time! Both options will take 24hrs to fully develop, one just might be more convenient for your schedule.

Standard tanning solutions contain an added cosmetic bronzer (instant color) while clear solutions do not. Our bronzer-free solutions go on the skin completely clear allowing you to go about your day while your tan discreetly develops.

There is no such thing as an organic spray tan. While our solutions do contain organic ingredients, no spray tan is 100% organic due to the active tanning ingredient Dihydroxyacetone (DHA). Any claims to be are false.

DURING: What you wear while getting sprayed is totally up to you and your comfort level! Choose from our disposable undergarments provided or wear your own (or nothing). Male clients are required to wear a bottom, no exceptions. AFTER: LONG: Wear long clothing to protect your tan while you're processing. This ensures it won't rub off on your seat/seat belt in the car + prevents any skin to skin transfer. Yes, even when it’s hot out you still want to wear long clothes. NO SHORTS, please! LOOSE: Avoid anything tight! NO JEANS, LEGGINGS, BRAS, SOCKS, SNEAKERS etc. Tight clothing will rub off the solution causing an uneven, discolored result. Wear open toe sandals/flip flops DARK: Fresh tans have the possibility of transferring onto your clothing. Our solutions are water soluble and will rinse out of most clothing however, we still suggest wearing something dark (preferably black)

5-10+ days with proper prep and aftercare.

Avoid lotions containing mineral oil/petroleum + anti aging/acne products with retinol and AHAs/ BHAs (glycolic acid, salicylic acid, lactic acid, and mandelic acid). Our aftercare products are formulated specially with your spray tan in mind - available in studio.

Spray tanning while pregnant is safe when protective undergarments + nose filter/mask are worn. All expecting or nursing mothers must consult with their physician before scheduling an appointment. We will not tan those in their first trimester. Nursing mothers should avoid breastfeeding while their tan is developing and wear a bra or nipple covering during the service.

Don’t let your cycle stop you from getting a spray tan - no one wants to be moody and pale;) However, it's important to note hormones have a major impact on your skin and may cause little to no development as well as affect the longevity of your tan. In this case, we suggest going a shade or two darker/leaving it on a bit longer. *This also applies to those that are pregnant/breast feeding, menopausal etc*

We do not recommend spray tanning if you've experienced a sunburn in the past four weeks (even if it's no longer visible). No, it won't cover up your sunburn. A spray tan will cause the damaged skin to peel resulting in a splotchy, discolored result.

If it's raining the day of your spray tan appointment, be sure to wear long, loose clothing + closed toe shoes and bring an umbrella for extra protection. Park in our lot so you do not have to walk far in the rain (between Left Bank and Burritoville). You must avoid getting your tan wet while processing.

Our skincare services (facials, waxing + tinting) should be scheduled before your spray tan to avoid tan development issues. You'll have to schedule two separate appointments or you may text us (415) 737 -9890

NO - The Bronze Brand will not wax those using retinoids and/or acne medications. Retinoids/acne medications make your skin extremely sensitive which can lead to severe redness/irritation and even taking skin off. You must stop the use of retinoids and/or acne medications 7 days prior to your appointment or opt for tweezing only. It is important to disclose to your Esthetician products you are using or if there has been a change in your regimen.

We ask that a 24 hour notice is given if you need to cancel/reschedule your appointment. Cancellations/rescheduling occurring within 24 hours of the scheduled appointment time and no shows will be charged the full amount of the missed service. Appointments are scheduled back to back (30 mins), please arrive on time. If you are 10+ minutes late, we will not be able to accommodate and you will be charged the full amount of the missed service, facials will be shortened. Give yourself plenty of time (traffic, parking etc).

A “cancel/reschedule” button can be found in your confirmation/reminder email. Your appointment has not been successfully cancelled/rescheduled unless you receive an email stating your appointment has been successfully cancelled/rescheduled. You may also text us (415) 737-9890.
