The Man Tan

You have to agree! Men look so good with a tan and spray tan for men is the easiest way for them to get the look.

This great effect must have something to do with the ability of the tan to accentuate muscles, especially the abdominals. That must be why  body builders won't go into a competition without a great tan (usually the instant spray tan variety, as it is more even than the natural one).

When getting spray tan for men, there are few things to watch out for:

Men have usually more body hair than women:

That usually does not affect the tan, but if you are really hairy in some places (like on the chest), when you spray tan in a booth take off the shower cap after tanning, and use it like a glove to rub the solution that has beaded on the hair onto the skin. Works every time.

Mens' skin may need more spray tanning solution:

Unless you are very fair, take a darker shade, or better still, have a double dip (another spray the next day). Men on average use much less sun block then women, and so they often start with a 'base' of already tanned body. Also darker tan does not seem to 'age' men as it sometimes can with  women.

In some instances man’s skin seems to absorb less tanning solution than women’s; double dip seems to get the skin adjusted to the solution, and from then on all you need is a top up every week or two.

But if you are getting a spray tan for your own wedding be cautious and get the lightest tan especially if it's your first one. It will definitely look best on the photos.

Do you have very dark arms and face, and the rest of your body is snow white?

If you just want to fill in 'the gaps;, you will be better off with a spray tan rather than a booth tan. The technician will only spray the areas that need filling.

To boost your spray tan for men, use tan extending products. They will not only extend the time you wear your tan, but will also repair any damage that occurs when the tan starts to wear off.

Spray tan for men is such a wonderful cosmetic. It will give you a desired effect fast, without any hustles and best of all nobody will know that you are faking it.
