HOLLY DOLLY GLOW offers a range of different types of Spraytan from the most natural glow to the sun kissed era to a deep bronzed look. we offer mobile and In-Salon spray tanning for ANY special events from group packages bundles and more.
To the appointment: Loose fitting dark clothes.
During the tan: Bra/underwear, swimwear, or nude. Whatever you are most comfortable with.
Exfoliate 24 hours prior to your spray tan with a basic loofah or wash rag.
Also, stay away from any heavy exfoliating oils. After showering DO NOT apply lotions, oils, or perfumes.
Shaving should be done 12 hours before your spray tan.
Streaks may be an issue in your final tan if you shave right before due to the wax from the shaving bar.
Manicures, pedicures, and waxing should all be done prior to your spray tan.
Make sure to bring loose fitting clothes with you for after your spray tan.
The length of your spray tan depends on the maintenance afterwards. Most people notice their tan beginning to fade after about 4-7 days and others have said 7-12 days depending on their post care. Moisturizing and staying hydrated are two important factors to support the length of your tan along with not swimming working out or going in hot tubs or saunas. Always remember to pat dry when exiting a shower or spa.
Absolutely NO soap.
A really slow rinse with luke-warm water is best. Only use your hands to remove the bronzer, and focus your attention to your legs, behind your arms, etc.
The #1 cause for streaks is that the bronzer was not rinsed off properly and can stain the skin for a few days.
Hop back in the shower and do another rinse. If that doesn’t help, rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab will help remove the streak. Keep in mind that it will also remove the tan in the area you apply it to and you will need to respray if that happens.
Wait 12 hours AFTER your initial rinse before applying any kind of lotion. CeraVe is Isabel's favorite lotion. Moisturizing is the key to prolong your spray tan so moisturizing twice daily will give you the best results. It’s also important to stay hydrated and drink lots of water throughout the day.
Yes, we recommend making an appointment in advance to ensure availability. You can do so by booking online.
Try rinsing again, soak in a bath tub, or sit in a sauna/jacuzzi. These methods will remove some of the bronzer to lighten the color. lemon juice, dawn dish soap and sugar will lighten the hands use like a sugar scrub.
Wait 24 hours for it to fully develop after rinsing. If it’s still not dark enough, you can respray over it. Patience is key.
The best time to get spray tanned before any event is 2-3 days prior
No, you will not appear orange with a Dolce Glow Tan. We use the highest quality solution and guarantee that you will not turn orange.

Yes, but must have parent’s consent.
Yes! The most important thing to remember is that the solution does not contain any UV protection/sunscreen. You will still be able to develop a tan naturally in the sun. but still wear SPF so you prevent aging. you can still tan with SPF! if you have pigment (melanin) in your skin..

Normally yes, but a waiver will need to be signed prior to getting spray tanned.
Yes, the first few days minimum cosmetic bronzer might minimally rub off on your clothes etc. But, most cosmetic bronzer does rinse off.
Please wait 16 - 24 hours and we recommend additionally rinsing off prior to working out. This will wash away any remaining bronzer – which is the cosmetic portion of your spray tan.
