It’s potentially one of the most expensive outfits you will ever wear, and so it’s natural to be concerned that the tan will rub off onto your dress or shirt collar. Thankfully the quality of Wild About Tan’s chosen solution Vani-T allows peace of mind for your big day. We always recommend you have a pre-wedding test (perhaps the hen/stag do), and wear fitted white garments the day and two days after your tan so you can gauge how soon before your wedding you wish to be tanned. It’s all about the organisation! The only thing you will have to worry about is mopping up hubby or wifey’s happy tears when they see that they are onto a bronzed winner with their choice of partner for life.

Wild About Tan operate a process to protect those gorgeous talons of yours before and after your tan, so it doesn’t really matter, however, we would suggest your tan is the last beauty treatment you have. Don’t worry, the spray tan will not fade or affect your nails at all.

If you have never had a spray tan before, it can feel a bit alien on your skin (like a body butter), you may be concerned about it rubbing off and ruining it.However, if you have had spray tans before, you will most likely be astonished about how light it feels on your skin as well as how dry it is and that you can just crack on with your day as normal. School pick up, lunch with friends, weekly grocery shop, it’s all completely do-able. We just recommend you wear loose dark clothes after, and if it’s raining, cover up and use an umbrella. Simples!

To secure your appointment slot, we require £8 per person deposit and the balance is due on the day of you spray tan. Our professionals do not accept cash. We have kept everything super simple for them and you, no faffing about with cash, everything is done electronically.

We sure do! For bookings of 6 or more, the Bride only has to pay the cost of her deposit! We even offer you a free celebratory gift for bookings of 4 or more 🙂

Wild About Tan only use Vani-T Solution which we consider to be the best!  Not only is it vegan and paraban free but it is such a natural colour that no-one will believe it is a spray tan.  Ssh! Your secret is safe with us!

Just let your Wild About Tan professional know on the day what kind of look you are going for and they will mix you a special cocktail of tan especially for you!

For best results, please exfoliate 12 hours before and don’t apply moisturiser before we get there as it creates a barrier. Please refrain from wearing perfume and deodorant, and remove all jewellery. For more details on this head over to our Top Tan Tips page!
It’s such a natural colour that often friends and family will think you have had a cheeky trip away, certainly not a spray tan. In short, we don’t do orange. We promise. And if you’d like to see this in action, head on over to our instagram page for real life examples of a range of skin tones with the Vani-T tan applied.
This means you will end up paying less for your addiction than that women does down the road who has to go to a salon for her tango tan – you know, the one with the orange hands? Oh we’re naughty saying that but I’m sure we’ve all met at least one of these people before!

Ah, the ‘how long is a piece of string’ question. This can depend on a number of situ’s. If you have prepped well with exfoliation prior to your tan and wear loose clothing afterwards your tan should last at least 7 days. However to extend this you will need to follow our aftercare guidelines. This means avoiding oil-based products when showering and moisturising combined with a body polish on day 4-5: in the past our clients have kept their tan for up to 14 days! The average is 7-10 days with it fading from your face and hands first as these are used and abused most (washing hands, make up remover). Remember though, we offer fabulous top up products so you don’t have to worry about that at all.

We stock a number of Vani-T products aimed at extending the life of your spray tan as well as topping it up. If you’re interested in purchasing them please please check out our online shop! Your Wild About Tan professional will also talk through their top tips on the best way to prolong your tan.

There are no two ways about this, you MUST wax or shave before your spray tan, not after. If you can do it 12 hours or more before that would also be fantastic. We don’t want any invisible barrier left on your skin now do we? Sometimes we just have to shave a little on those stubborn, fast growing areas after our tan but bare in mind that when you are shaving, you are effectively shaving the first layer of your skin and that’s exactly where the tan is resting. If you really must, please do not dry shave, use a hydrating shaving gel/cream and a sharp blade softly so you don’t have to go over and over the same area.

There are absolutely no studies/research to suggest that spray tanning is in any way harmful. Still, this isn’t good enough for Wilde About Tan, which is why we go one step further and use only organic based products. We truly care about what you put on your skin and in your body in general. Nothing but the best for our clients.

It is also pertinent to note though, your spray tan can be affected by hormones, particularly during pregnancy as you’re going through a lot of changes. It may come out slightly lighter or darker than normal. Of course it may be exactly as you expect it to be as well, we just need you to know this is a possibility.

At Wild About Tan, it is our policy to tan no younger than 8 years old.  We feel the prep, tan time and maintenance, for anyone under this age may struggle and aged 8 and over is an age our professionals feel comfortable tanning.

Yes we absolutely recommend that you do! We also recommend that if you have a make up artist for your big day, that you get your tan trial along with your make up trial as otherwise your make up artist will be working on a different base colour on the big day – give a girl a break!
