I came into the Dundrum tanning shop for my first sunbed. I was unsure of everything and how to use the bed or how long I should do. A young worker named Allie was very helpful and kind to me and gave me the best advice and told me step by step how to do it and what would be the safest time and such. She also recommended a tanning shot and cream which I bought. I enjoyed my first sunbed and will definitely be back with this kind of service.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Spray Tanning and How Does an Automated Booth Work?
Spray tanning is a sunless treatment that applies a fine mist of dihydroxyacetone (DHA) to the skin, creating a temporary bronzed colour as it develops on the skin’s surface. Automated spray tan booths use guided voice prompts and controlled spray patterns to deliver even, all-over coverage, with a warm-air drying system for quick, mess-free results.
How Long Does a Spray Tan Take at The Tanning Shop Ireland?
Automatic spray tanning sessions typically take around 15 minutes (including prep, spray, and drying), depending on your chosen booth.
How Quickly Will My Tan Develop?
Our premium Norvell tan solutions fully develop within the first 24 hours.
How Long Do Spray Tans Last?
With proper preparation and aftercare, your tan will last between 4 and 7 days.
When Can I Shower After Having a Spray Tan?
For best results, allow your tan to fully develop before showering (24 hours). If you wish to shower during this period, wait a minimum of 6-8 hours and rinse in warm water only.
How Do You Prepare for a Spray Tan?
For best results, exfoliate and moisturise the day before your appointment, and complete any shaving or waxing at least 24 hours in advance. On the day, arrive with clean skin free from products, apply barrier cream to dry areas, and wear loose, dark clothing to protect your developing colour.
What Should I Wear to My Spray Tan Appointment?
We recommend wearing dark, loose-fitting clothes to your appointment to minimise colour transfer after your session. During your spray tan, you may tan nude or wear underwear or swimwear. All our automated booths are completely private, so you can tan however you feel most comfortable.
Can I Get a Spray Tan if I’m Pregnant?
Spray tanning is not permitted during the first trimester of pregnancy. You may use a tanning booth after this stage, but please take care, as surfaces may be slippery.
Where Can I Book a Spray Tan in Dublin, Ireland?
Spray tanning is available at selected Tanning Shop Ireland locations. Visit our Tallaght or Dundrum salons for a premium spray tan in South Dublin, or book at the Greystones store for advanced spray tanning in County Wicklow.
