You can exfoliate after tanning however it is recommended that you exfoliate before tanning. First, it removes dead skin cells which not only reflect light but also can not tan. Second it increases your circulation and tanning requires UVA + UVB (both found in the lamps) and oxygen. Increasing oxygen levels increases your tanning ability. Also, if you are using a lotion with DHA bronzer or a color guide then exfoliating right after tanning can halt the effects. Waiting about 4 hours after application allows you get the full results out of your lotion. So it is not recommended that you exfoliate right after tanning but it won't hurt you.

Does it matter if you don't shave your legs before a spray tan?
You can get a spray tan without shaving your legs beforehand. It is recommended that you shave first, because if you shave afterwards you will exfoliate the layer of skin that has the tan on it. The tan will not last as long or stay as even.

It depends on the local standards at the school. I would say in general men and boys who need to shave should. Maybe 1 day of stubble is OK. Women and girls have the choice to shave legs/armpits or not.
