Flash Tan
The Flash Tan technique utilizes a tanning solution with a higher concentration of Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) and potentially accelerators, allowing the bronzing agents to penetrate the skin and initiate the colour development process much faster. Unlike conventional spray tans that require 6-8 hours for full development, a Flash Tan solution is designed to be rinsed off after a short period, typically between 1 to 4 hours. This allows clients to achieve a natural-looking tan with minimal waiting time, making it ideal for last-minute events or individuals with busy schedules. It's crucial for the client to follow the specific rinse-off instructions provided by the tanning technician, as leaving the solution on for too long can lead to an overly dark or uneven result. The intensity of the tan can often be controlled by the duration the solution is left on the skin before rinsing.
