tattoo and spray tan

Question: I just had a tattoo done recently and I don't know if spray tan will be harmful or not. If not how long do I have to wait before using a spray tan product.


Answer: When having a spray tan just put on a thick coat of barrier cream on your tattoo, and it should be OK. Make sure that you put the cream ONLY on the tattoo, otherwise you will have a large white patch around it.

If the tattoo has already healed over it will be OK to spray tan without taking precautions.
