Q: Is there anything I should do or change prior to my spray tan?

Exfoliating prior to spray tanning, especially on dry patches, such as elbows, knees and hands, is also recommended. Just don’t shave or exfoliate afterwards for at least four hours. Also avoid bathing, waxing, spa treatments, sweaty activities and swimming for at least four hours after spray tanning.
