Booking for your daughter?
- Under 18
-
Clients under 18 years old may only be serviced with the signature of a parent or legal guardian, who confirms they have authority to consent to this service on the minor's behalf and have reviewed this document with the minor.
- Who is in the room
- One artist, a private space, a closed door. She steps out while your daughter undresses, and disposables are provided. Your daughter wears whatever she is comfortable in.
- What is in it
- DHA is approved for external cosmetic use, and a spray tan involves no UV exposure at all. We spray in a ventilated studio and offer nose filters and eye protection.
- Sensitive skin
- We're happy to do a small patch test at least 24 hours before the full application, at no charge. Just ask.
- Looking orange
- Orange happens when the solution is too strong for her skin tone or clashes with her undertone. We assess her undertone in consultation and hand-blend her formula.
- The dress
- The brown you see on the way home is mostly cosmetic bronzer, and that bronzer is what transfers to fabric. The color underneath does not transfer at all. After her first rinse, bronzer transfer is over. Wearing white or a light color? We have clear solution, which has no bronzer to transfer. Text us to request clear solution.

- Sprayed, set with finishing powder, and out the door in about 30 minutes. Taylor gives you an exact rinse time before you leave.
Questions before you book
How many days before the dance should I book?
For events, book 24 to 48 hours ahead so your color fully develops.
The dance is tonight. Is it too late?
No. The Rapid Signature Tan, $98, lets you rinse in 2 to 4 hours, and the color keeps deepening for about 24 hours after that first shower. It is ideal before same-evening events.
Will it get on the dress?
The brown you see on the way home is mostly cosmetic bronzer, and that bronzer is what transfers to fabric. The color underneath does not transfer at all. After your first rinse, bronzer transfer is over. Until then, wear loose, dark clothing. For a white or light dress, we have clear solution, which has no bronzer to transfer. Text us to request clear solution.
What does 'love it, or a complimentary redo' mean?
If you do not love your tan, we redo it free. It is a free redo, not a refund.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule?
Deposits and prepayments are non-refundable. If you cancel, your full payment stays on file as a studio credit you can use toward any future session. Need to move your time? Call or text us at least 24 hours before your appointment and we will reschedule you.
Is there a group rate for friends?
Yes. Book 3 or more tans back to back on the same day and each tan is $10 off. Online booking takes one tan at a time, so text or call us to book your group. Text us your group.
Will I look orange?
Orange happens when the solution is too strong for your skin tone or clashes with your undertone. We assess your undertone in consultation and hand-blend every formula.
Can someone under 18 get a spray tan here?
Clients under 18 years old may only be serviced with the signature of a parent or legal guardian, who confirms they have authority to consent to this service on the minor's behalf and have reviewed this document with the minor.
What do I wear, and who is in the room?
You are in a private room with one artist, and you undress to whatever you are comfortable in. She steps out while you change.
