(Coquitlam, BC, Canada) Question: How long after a spray tan can I shower? Is longer better and or is too long bad? Answer: Spray tan usually develops over 5-12 hours, so you should definitely abstain from showering for at least 5 hours.
This is why tanning booths are so effective, because it isnât just the 10 minutes that you are in the booth that effect the level of your tan. Since you are going to the tanning salon to get as much of a tan as you can, you donât want to reduce the effectiveness. So you should avoid the shower for a few hours after the tanning session, and your tan will come quicker and be much deeper.
