Airbrush Tanning
Airbrush tanning is a sunless tanning method the involves a professionally trained technician using an airbrush gun to give you a flawless, natural looking tan. The active ingredient in our tanning solution is DHA (Dihydroxyacetone), which is a simple carbohydrate derived from sugar cane and beet root. When the DHA comes into contact with outmost layer of skin, it interacts with proteins and amino acids found in the skin, resulting in a natural browning effect, similar to an apple browning when exposed to air. The technician will customize the tan according to the clientβs skin tone and desired glow they are hoping to achieve.
