The spray tan initially contains a bronzer so that the technician can see where its being applied, and you can have instant color. Bronzer can transfer to clothes and sheets which is why you are advised to wear darker clothing to your appointment. Once your tan has developed and you take your shower there is no longer any bronzer to transfer to clothing. We advise brides to have their tan about 2-3 days before their wedding so they can be sure to have the bronzer rinsed off, however a thorough cleansing will remove it all. We have sprayed countless brides and all have reported no color transfer.
