What airbrush tanning at Branford River Spa actually involves
Airbrush tanning is applied by hand, not in a booth, so colour can be built lighter on knees, elbows, ankles and hands where a tan normally goes blotchy. Your technician chooses the shade with you and blends the whole body evenly.
It develops over several hours and rinses back to a natural finish, which is why brides, wedding guests and holidaymakers book it two to three days before the event rather than the morning of.
Booking from Hamden Center: what to expect
A private room, disposable options provided, and about twenty minutes of application front and back while you follow simple stand-and-turn cues. You dress in loose dark clothing and leave the colour on for the time your technician recommends before rinsing.
