Natural-Looking Results Without the Sun Damage
Spray tanning is a safe and effective alternative to sunbathing or using sunbeds, both of which can cause long-term skin damage. At Megan Grace Beauty, we use high-quality tanning solutions that give you a golden, streak-free tan while nourishing the skin with hydrating ingredients. The tan develops evenly, giving you a natural finish without the tell-tale orange tones or patchiness that can come from cheaper self-tanners.
Our therapists are fully trained to apply the product with precision and care, using a fine mist spray that covers the body smoothly and evenly. The treatment takes just a few minutes and dries quickly, making it an ideal option even for those with busy schedules. Whether you prefer a light glow or a deeper bronze, we’ll customise the tan to suit your skin tone and the look you want to achieve. The result is a radiant, natural-looking colour that boosts your confidence and enhances your appearance.
What to Expect During Your Spray Tan Appointment
When you arrive for your spray tan appointment at Megan Grace Beauty, we’ll start with a quick consultation to find out what kind of tan you’d like—whether it’s a subtle glow for a weekend away or a deeper shade for a night out or event. We’ll also check your skin type and recommend the best solution for your tone and preferences. You’ll then be shown to a private treatment room where you can change into disposable underwear if you choose, or wear your own dark clothing.
The therapist will guide you through each step and ensure you're comfortable throughout. The spray tanning process itself only takes around 10 minutes. We use a fine, even mist to coat the body, focusing on achieving smooth, natural coverage. Once complete, the tan is left to develop over several hours. You'll be given clear aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible result, including when to shower and how to maintain your colour for longer.
How to Prepare and Care for Your Spray Tan
Proper preparation is key to getting the most out of your spray tan. For the best results, we recommend exfoliating your skin 24 hours before your appointment to remove any dry patches and create a smooth surface. Avoid applying moisturisers, oils, perfumes, or deodorants on the day of your tan, as these can act as barriers and affect how evenly the solution develops. Wear loose, dark clothing to your appointment to avoid rubbing the tan off while it sets.
After the spray tan, it’s important to follow the aftercare advice given by your therapist. This usually includes avoiding water, sweating, or tight clothing while the tan is developing, as well as waiting the recommended number of hours before showering. When you do shower, use a gentle, non-exfoliating body wash and pat your skin dry. Moisturise daily to help your tan last longer and fade evenly. With proper care, your spray tan can last between 5 to 7 days.
Why Spray Tanning is a Great Confidence Boost
A professional spray tan can give your skin an instant healthy glow, helping you feel more confident and refreshed without the need for makeup or sun exposure. Whether you're going to a wedding, party, holiday, or just want a subtle pick-me-up, a spray tan enhances your natural skin tone and smooths out uneven colour. Many clients in Andover love the way a tan makes them look more radiant, with a healthy warmth that brightens their appearance and boosts their mood.
Unlike at-home self-tanning products, professional spray tans give even, streak-free coverage in areas that can be hard to reach on your own. You also avoid the risk of uneven colour or staining your hands and clothes. At Megan Grace Beauty, we focus on giving each client a bespoke tan that complements their individual skin and style. It’s a simple and safe way to feel like the best version of yourself in just one appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions
A spray tan typically lasts around 5 to 7 days, depending on your skin type, how well you prepare before the appointment, and how you care for your skin afterwards. To get the longest wear from your tan, it’s important to follow both the pre-treatment and aftercare advice we provide at Megan Grace Beauty. Exfoliate your skin the day before your tan to remove dry skin cells, and avoid moisturisers, deodorant, and makeup on the day of your treatment. After your appointment, let the tan develop for the full recommended time before showering. Use gentle, non-exfoliating body washes, and pat your skin dry instead of rubbing it. Keeping your skin well-hydrated with daily moisturiser will also help prevent your tan from fading unevenly. Avoid swimming pools, saunas, and long hot baths, as these can strip the colour. With proper care, your tan should fade gradually and evenly, giving you a lovely, natural glow all week long.
No, not when it’s done professionally and using the right products for your skin tone. At Megan Grace Beauty, we take pride in providing natural-looking spray tans that enhance your skin’s natural warmth without the orange tinge often associated with low-quality self-tanners. We use high-quality tanning solutions that are specially formulated to suit a wide range of skin tones, from fair to deep. During your consultation, we’ll discuss the look you’re after—whether that’s a subtle glow or a deeper bronze—and select the right shade for your individual complexion. Our trained therapists apply the tan evenly and carefully, ensuring a smooth, streak-free result. The colour will continue to develop over several hours, and we’ll give you all the aftercare instructions to ensure it settles properly. When done correctly, your spray tan will look healthy, flattering, and completely natural—just like you’ve been on a sun-kissed holiday, without the sun damage.
It’s best to wear loose, dark clothing to your spray tan appointment to avoid rubbing the product off before it has a chance to develop. Tight-fitting clothes, including bras or leggings, can create lines or patches in the tan if worn too soon after application. Most clients wear something like a loose t-shirt or a dress, with flip flops or slip-on shoes. We’ll also provide you with disposable underwear if you’d like, or you’re welcome to wear your own old underwear or bikini—just bear in mind that anything you wear during the tan may get stained, although the solution usually washes out easily. After your appointment, continue wearing loose clothing for the rest of the day or evening while the tan develops. Avoid touching or crossing your legs for long periods, as this can cause uneven areas. Once the developing time has passed and you’ve had your first shower, you can go back to your usual clothes.
Preparation is one of the most important steps to achieving a flawless, long-lasting spray tan. For the best results, exfoliate your entire body around 24 hours before your appointment using a gentle scrub or exfoliating mitt. Focus on dry areas like elbows, knees, ankles, and wrists. This helps remove dead skin cells and ensures the tan develops evenly. You should also shave or wax at least 24 hours before your appointment to allow your skin time to settle and to avoid open pores absorbing too much of the tanning solution. On the day of your tan, make sure your skin is clean and completely free from moisturisers, perfumes, deodorants, and makeup, as these can create a barrier that prevents the tan from developing properly. At Megan Grace Beauty, we’ll talk you through all of this during your booking, so you feel fully prepared and confident when you arrive for your treatment.
Yes, spray tanning can be suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, as long as the right products are used and proper care is taken before and after treatment. At Megan Grace Beauty, we use professional tanning solutions that are gentle, nourishing, and free from harsh chemicals that might irritate the skin. If you have particularly sensitive skin or allergies, we’re more than happy to perform a patch test in advance to check for any reactions. During your consultation, we’ll discuss your skin type, preferences, and any past experiences with tanning to make sure the treatment is right for you. After the tan is applied, we’ll provide tailored aftercare advice to help protect your skin and ensure the colour develops evenly. Many of our clients with sensitive skin return regularly for spray tanning because it gives them a healthy glow without the irritation that can come from sun exposure or self-tan products used at home.
