(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.
The artificial tan takes 2 to 4 hours to begin appearing on the skin surface, and will continue to darken for 24 to 72 hours, depending on formulation type. The most important thing to remember when using DHA self-tanners is that they do not protect your skin against the sun.
