!NEW! Clear Tan

NEW! Clear Solution *Add hydration for $10 mention in comments when booking! A "bronzer free" solution. After applying your clear solution you won't have any color for a few hours. You can rinse in 2-6 hours if you choose the rapid clear or sleep in it and shower in 8-10 hours. The tan will not be fully developed for close to 24 hours. You will leave your appointment looking like you did when you walked in! But you just WAIT! This is perfect if you need to go back to work afterwards , need to go grocery shopping, etc. The clear is the same product we use just without the bronzer (which is what you see right away that you rinse off in the shower). When rinsing the clear, there is no bronzer!
