The Mobile Tanning Experience

Q: How does a mobile spray tan work?
A: It's simple and convenient! I arrive at your location with my professional equipment, including a pop-up, ventilated tent. We'll do a quick color consultation, you'll get undressed to your comfort level, and the spray tan itself takes only about 20 minutes. The entire process from setup to pack-up is seamless and designed for your comfort.

Q: Will the spray tan make a mess in my home?
A: Absolutely not. I bring a professional, floor-to-ceiling tanning tent that contains 100% of the overspray. It protects your floors, furniture, and privacy. I pack everything up when I'm done, leaving no trace behind—just you and your beautiful glow!

Q: How much space do you need?
A: Not much at all! I just need a roughly 4x4 foot area with good lighting and access to a standard power outlet. A living room, kitchen, or even a spacious bathroom works perfectly.

Q: What should I wear during the appointment?
A: Whatever makes you most comfortable! You can go nude to avoid all tan lines, or wear a dark-colored thong, bikini, or underwear. Men typically wear dark-colored shorts or boxers.

Preparing For Your Tan

Q: How should I prepare my skin for the best results?
A: Great results start with great prep! For a flawless, long-lasting tan, please shower, shave, and gently exfoliate your skin 12-24 hours before your appointment. It's important to arrive for your tan with clean skin, free of any products.

Q: Should I wear any lotion, makeup, or deodorant to my appointment?
A: No. Please arrive with your skin completely clean and free of any products. Lotions, oils, perfumes, and deodorants can create a barrier on the skin and may affect the tan's development.

After-Care & Tan Maintenance

Q: What should I wear right after my tan?
A: Dark, loose-fitting clothing is best. Think sweatpants, loose t-shirts, robes, or maxi dresses. Avoid wearing anything tight like jeans, leggings, socks, or restrictive bras immediately after your session.

Q: When can I shower?
A: We will discuss this at your appointment as it depends on the solution used. For a traditional tan, you will want to wait at least 8-12 hours before your first rinse. For a rapid tan, you can rinse in as little as 2-4 hours. Your first shower should be a warm water rinse only—no soaps or scrubbing!

Q: How long will my tan last?
A: With proper after-care, your custom spray tan will last between 7 to 10 days. The life of your tan depends on your skin type, lifestyle, and how well you care for it.

Q: How can I make my tan last longer?
A: Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Starting after your first shower, moisturize your entire body once or twice a day. Avoid long hot baths, chlorinated pools, and excessive scrubbing, as these can cause your tan to fade more quickly.
