The Ultimate Beginner’s Guide to Spray Tanning

Spray tanning is the ultimate way to achieve a flawless, sun-kissed glow without the harmful effects of UV rays. 

For beginners, the process might feel intimidating, but I do my very best to make each and every client feel comfortable.

Questions I ask to help me determine your custom solution mix and ensure you look and feel radiant leaving my studio:

What is the occasion for your spray tan?
(e.g., wedding, vacation, photoshoot, competition, or just because)

Have you ever had a spray tan before?
(If yes, what did you like or dislike about it?)

What kind of look are you going for?
(natural glow, deep bronze, just a hint of color)

Are there any specific areas you’d like me to pay extra attention to or avoid?

What’s your timeline?
(Do you need your tan to be its darkest for a specific day or event?)

Do you plan to be in water or work out after your spray tan?

Do you have any special skincare needs or concerns?
(dry skin, sensitive skin, or allergies)

Are you wanting to rinse off in 3-5 hours or wanting to sleep in your tan?

Would you like any add-ons like tan extender, skin firming, scents, hydration boost, etc?

After discussing your goals, I custom make the solution.

I determine the solution based on your unique skin tone and undertones.

Then, I put barrier cream on your palms and nails to ensure that no tanning solution is applied in those areas. Next, a professional airbrush spray tan is applied using a fine mist that evenly coats your skin with a natural-looking bronze shade. Lastly, I will apply a light powder to help eliminate any stickiness on your skin. 

Then, you check yourself out in the mirror and ensure you LOVE how you look, and it is that simple! You leave my studio in about 15 minutes and you are glowing! 

 Once applied, your spray tan will develop over several hours, leaving you with a radiant glow that lasts 7-12 days with proper care. Ready to feel confident and beautiful? Book your first spray tan today!

Pro Tip!: Before your appointment, exfoliate your skin to remove dead cells and avoid lotions, perfumes, and deodorants, as they can really interfere with the tan.

I am happy to answer any and all questions and I hope to see you at my studio soon!
