Timing of spray tan before holiday

We are flying on Thursday at 6am - hopefully by the pool by lunchtime!. I can either get a spray tan on Tuesday at 3pm or Wednesday at 3pm. Which would be best?

And then I need to plan my bikini wax!

thank you

Tuesday. Wash it off Wednesday so you're ready to go. You don't want to be gaffing without that on the first day of your holiday.

Bikini wax - depends what your recovery time is. I need a full 2 days for redness and swelling to go down but some people can walk straight out. I think the advice is not to go straight into the sun after a wax as the skin is still delicate so maybe Monday?

if I waxed Monday the skin around the area would be in no fit state to tan the next day 🫣

Tan Tuesday.

I don't have any reactions from hot wax I could get that before tan but as others say it depends on your skin and sensitivity, and where you're getting it

Deffo wait at least 24 hours between appts and obviously do the spray tan AFTER the wax otherwise you will wax the tan off!
