Custom Airbrush Tanning FAQs
What is Custom Airbrush Tanning?
Custom Airbrush Tanning is a personalized sunless tanning treatment that creates a natural-looking, streak-free glow without exposure to harmful UV rays. Each tan is custom blended to complement your skin tone, undertones, and desired level of color.
Why choose Custom Airbrush Tanning?
Custom Airbrush Tanning offers a flawless, natural-looking bronze tailored specifically to you. The treatment provides immediate cosmetic color, develops into a beautiful sun-kissed glow over time, and is ideal for weddings, vacations, photoshoots, special events, or year-round confidence.
Will my tan look orange?
No. Your shade is carefully customized to your skin tone and undertones to create a natural, healthy-looking glow rather than an artificial orange appearance.
How long does the appointment take?
Most appointments take approximately 30-40 minutes and include a personalized consultation, custom shade selection, and precision airbrush application.
What can I expect during my appointment?
Your session begins with a consultation to determine your ideal color and desired results. A custom tanning solution is then professionally applied using precision airbrush techniques for even, streak-free coverage. Optional contouring may also be performed to enhance definition and create a more sculpted appearance.
When will I see my results?
You will leave your appointment with an immediate cosmetic bronze glow. The tan continues to develop over the next 6–12 hours, depending on the formula used, with full results visible after your first rinse.
How long will my tan last?
With proper preparation and aftercare, most spray tans last approximately 7–12 days and fade gradually and evenly.
Is Airbrush Tanning safe?
Yes. Airbrush Tanning is a UV-free alternative to traditional tanning methods and allows you to achieve a bronzed appearance without exposure to harmful ultraviolet rays.
What tanning solution do you use?
We use high-quality, skin-nourishing tanning solutions designed to develop into a natural-looking bronze, fade evenly without patchiness, and help support healthy-looking skin. Our solutions are selected for their luxurious finish and long-lasting results.
Can I get a spray tan if I have sensitive skin?
Most clients with sensitive skin tolerate Airbrush Tanning very well. If you have concerns about ingredients or sensitivities, a patch test can be performed prior to treatment.
Will the tan stain my clothes?
The cosmetic bronzer may transfer slightly before your first rinse, but this is temporary and typically washes out of clothing and bedding. Once your tan has fully developed and been rinsed, transfer is minimal.
Can I shower after my tan?
Yes. You should wait until your recommended development time has passed, typically 6–12 hours, before showering or rinsing.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
For best results, exfoliate 24 hours before your appointment, shave or wax at least 24 hours in advance, avoid oils and perfumes on the day of treatment, moisturize your skin, and wear loose, dark clothing to your appointment.
How should I care for my tan after treatment?
To extend the life of your tan, avoid water, sweating, and tight clothing during the development period. Moisturize daily, apply a Gradual Glow Tan Extender lotion, avoid exfoliating products, and use gentle cleansing products with your hands rather than washcloths or scrub gloves to prevent premature fading.
When should I book my spray tan before an event?
For weddings, vacations, photoshoots, and other special occasions, it is generally recommended to schedule your appointment 24–48 hours before the event to allow the tan to fully develop and settle.
How often should I schedule Airbrush Tanning treatments?
Many clients choose to maintain their glow with appointments every 1–2 weeks, depending on their desired level of color and lifestyle.
