Spray Tan Myths Busted: The Truth About the Bronze

🟠 Myth #1: “Spray tans always turn you orange.”

The truth: Only if you’re going to the wrong place. Period.

We custom-match your undertone and use pro-grade, luxury solutions (no weird preservatives, no drugstore drama).
Our team is trained to assess your skin tone like glow scientists. Whether you're cool, warm, olive, fair, or deep—we’re mixing a cocktail that complements you.
Bottom line: If you're orange, it's not the tan—it's the tech. And we don’t play that game.

👙 Myth #2: “You have to get fully naked.”

The truth: You wear what makes you feel good, boo.

Some clients strip down to their birthday suit. Others keep it cute in a thong, sticky bra, or full coverage undies.
We’ve seen it all. We’re licensed pros. You could show up in a snowsuit and we’d still know where to contour your collarbones.
Comfort is queen—and we’re just here to make sure you leave glowing and confident.

👃 Myth #3: “Spray tans smell bad.”

The truth: Not on our watch.

That old-school funky “spray tan smell”? That was yesterday’s formula.
Our current solutions are lightly scented, made with skin-loving ingredients, and designed to fade without making you smell like you’ve been rolling in protein powder and sadness…and our delicious smelling drying powder rocks!
Think spa day at a boutique resort, not high school locker room after track practice.

⏳ Myth #4: “They only last 3 days.”

The truth: Only if you ghost your aftercare.

A pro tan at AfterGlow, paired with our pre + post-tan cheat sheet, lasts 7–10 days.
We guide you through the whole glow lifecycle—exfoliation, development, moisturizing, touch-ups. It’s not just about the appointment—it’s about the maintenance.
When you follow the playbook? That bronze lingers like your ex’s texts—only way hotter and way more wanted.

☠️ Myth #5: “Spray tans aren’t safe for your skin.”

The truth: We’re not spraying you with mystery mist.

Our solutions are paraben-free, cruelty-free, and UV-free, and many are vegan and organic-friendly.
We skip the junk and stick to formulas that enhance your glow while caring for your skin barrier.
Plus, spray tanning is a safe alternative to sun damage and tanning beds—which are actually the problem. Skin cancer isn’t cute. Melanoma doesn’t match anyone’s outfit.

💬 Final Glow Thoughts:

If you’ve been holding back on booking a spray tan because of these myths, let this be your sign. We’re not here to paint you orange and push you out the door—we’re here to curate a full-on luxury glow experience tailored to your body, your comfort, and your vibe.

Spray tans have evolved—and you deserve to experience the modern glow standard.
