I know someone who has done it...
It's like you stand in a stand up bed with now lights. This machine sprays you with a solution that almost instantly darkens your skin. The guy that did it paid much more for this sort of tan, yet said it lasted longer (plus you don't have to worry about UV rays and working up to a great tan).
He said they recommended only a few sessions in two weeks until you reach your desired tan...and then you can varry it after that. He said the lady recommended not showering more than once a day for a longer lasting tan...but he seemed to like it. I don't know him WELL so I don't know what he looked like before, but he seemed to have some color in him when he talked about it.
I say go to a tanning salon and ask! Can't hurt to do some research, and more than likely someone there uses it so you can see upfront the results.

BTW- I just bought a month ago the coppertone sunless tanner and disliked it. You have to stand there naked forever and then I still smelled. I was sorta streaky still because it's that damn lotion and you can't totally tell where you got. Now there was another product off of America's Store I was tempted to buy. It's similar to that Mystic Tan, but in a bottle. They provide you with an exfoliant and then a pair of gloves (whew) and it instantly turns you tan. I saw the product tested on tv and it wasn't orange and she put it on right there as she was talking and then you could see the difference right away. What was nice was you can SEE where you didn't get covered.
But, I'd still be hesitant on any sunless tanners if you have to shave.
