How can a professional spray tan be customized for an individual?

Customizing a professional spray tan for an individual primarily involves adjusting the DHA concentration and blending it with bronzers. DHA, or dihydroxyacetone, is the active ingredient in self-tanning products that reacts with the amino acids in the skin to produce a tan. By modifying the concentration of DHA, a technician can create a shade that is tailored to the client's skin tone and desired level of color.

Additionally, mixing bronzers into the solution allows for immediate color enhancement and can help achieve a more natural look. This adaptability ensures that each client receives a tan that complements their unique skin type and desired appearance.

Using only one standard shade would not take into account the varying skin tones and preferences of different clients. Opting for the cheapest tanning solution may compromise quality and effectiveness, potentially leading to undesired results. Moreover, applying a thicker layer of solution does not equate to personalization and can create an unnatural appearance rather than a customized tan. These aspects emphasize why trying to create a one-size-fits-all approach is not effective in the art of professional spray tanning.
