Which Tanning Option Is Right for You?
Not sure where to start? Explore the differences between our customized airbrush spray tans and UV tanning to find the option that fits your preferences and schedule.
Signature Spray Tan
A professional, customized airbrush tan for an even, sunless glow without UV exposure.
Your provider selects a Norvell solution suited to your skin tone and desired color.
Approximately 8–12 hours or overnight, following your provider's instructions.
Clients who prefer a traditional development time and can leave the solution on longer.
Rapid Spray Tan
The convenience of a professional sunless tan with a shorter wait before your first rinse.
A rapid-development Norvell solution allows an earlier rinse while your color continues developing afterward.
Approximately 2–4 hours, depending on your desired color and provider's instructions.
Busy schedules, earlier rinses and clients who don't want to leave the solution on overnight.
UV Tanning Bed
Individual UV tanning sessions and multi-session packages for adults who choose indoor UV tanning after reviewing its risks.
The tanning bed uses ultraviolet light to stimulate skin pigment. Unlike spray tanning, UV exposure damages skin.
Session times are determined individually. Our bed has a 15-minute maximum, which is not appropriate for everyone.
Ages 18+ only. Protective eyewear is required. UV exposure increases skin-cancer and premature-aging risks, even without sunburn.
Getting ready for an event? We recommend scheduling your airbrush spray tan 1–3 days before a wedding, vacation, photoshoot or special occasion. With proper preparation and aftercare, spray tans can last approximately 7–10 days. Results vary by individual.

A little color can go a long way. Whether you're preparing for a wedding, heading on vacation or simply love a bronzed look, our professional airbrush tans are customized to complement your skin tone and color goals.
We use professional Norvell tanning solutions and personalize your application to create a natural-looking, sunless finish.

Schedule your spray tan 1–3 days before your wedding, vacation, photoshoot or special event. We also recommend a trial spray tan for brides.

24–48 Hours Before

Shower at home before your appointment. Arrive with clean, dry skin free of lotions, oils, deodorant, makeup and perfume.

Dress for Your Tan
Wear whatever you're comfortable wearing during your application. Bring loose, dark clothing to wear afterward. Avoid tight clothing and getting wet while your tan develops.
-
Your First Rinse
Follow your provider's recommended rinse time:
- Signature: 8–12 hours or overnight.
- Rapid: 2–4 hours, depending on your desired color.
Rinse with lukewarm water only. Skip soap, washcloths and scrubbing. Gently pat your skin dry.

Before UV Tanning
UV tanning is different from spray tanning and carries health risks, including skin cancer, burns, eye damage and premature skin aging.
Please review the requirements before deciding whether UV tanning is appropriate for you.
UV Tanning Safety & Details- Age 18+: Bring identification for age verification. Minors cannot use our UV tanning bed.
- First Visit: Complete your Phorest client waiver before your first session.
- Protect Your Eyes: Proper protective tanning eyewear is provided and must be worn throughout the session.
- Check Skin Sensitivity: Certain medications and skin conditions can increase sensitivity to UV exposure. Check with your healthcare professional or pharmacist before tanning if you have concerns.
- Session Times: Exposure times must follow the manufacturer's guidelines for the installed lamps. The bed's 15-minute maximum is not a recommended starting time.
Spray tanning provides cosmetic color, not protection from the sun. Continue using appropriate sunscreen outdoors. Avoid inhaling tanning mist or exposing your eyes, lips or mucous membranes to the spray. Ask your provider about protective precautions.

Airbrush Spray Tanning
What's the difference between Signature and Rapid Spray Tans?
Both are customized Norvell airbrush tans without UV exposure. Signature Spray Tanning ($40) has a first rinse time of approximately 8–12 hours or overnight. Rapid Spray Tanning ($50) allows you to rinse in approximately 2–4 hours. Rapid color continues developing after rinsing.
How long does a spray tan last?
With proper preparation and aftercare, a spray tan can last approximately 7–10 days. Moisturizing daily after your first rinse and avoiding harsh exfoliation can help maintain an even fade. Results vary.
We also carry Norvell Tan Extending Lotion and Face Spray to help maintain your color at home.
When should I book before a wedding or special event?
We recommend scheduling your spray tan 1–3 days before your event. For brides, we also recommend a trial spray tan before the wedding to find your preferred shade and finish.
How should I prepare for my spray tan?
Exfoliate and complete shaving or waxing 24–48 hours before your visit. Arrive with clean, dry skin free from lotions, oils, deodorant, makeup and perfume.
Bring loose, dark clothing to wear afterward and follow your provider's first-rinse instructions.
Can I add enhancements to my spray tan?
Yes! We offer optional Norvell enhancements including Bronzer, Collagen Boost, Hydration Lift, Hydrofirm Setting Spray and Vitamin Bath.
DHA Boost is also available for Signature Spray Tans, but not Rapid Spray Tans. You can select enhancements online or discuss them with your provider. Additional charges apply.
UV Tanning
Do I need an appointment for UV tanning?
Walk-ins are generally welcome based on tanning bed availability. If the bed is occupied or another client has an appointment, you may need to wait. You can also book ahead through Phorest.
What do I need for my first UV tanning visit?
UV tanning is available to clients ages 18 and older only. Bring a valid photo ID for age verification.
First-time UV clients complete a waiver through Phorest. We provide protective tanning eyewear, which must be worn during every session.
How long is a UV tanning session?
Our Solar Storm 32C Deluxe has an advertised maximum session length of 15 minutes. This is not the recommended starting time for everyone. Exposure times must follow the manufacturer's schedule for the installed lamps, with individual factors considered.
Do UV tanning packages expire or allow sharing?
Our 5-, 10- and 15-session UV packages do not expire. Packages are for the purchaser's individual use and cannot be shared or transferred. We no longer offer unlimited tanning packages.
What are the health risks of UV tanning?
UV tanning increases the risk of skin cancer, premature skin aging and eye damage. UV exposure can cause harm even when no sunburn occurs.
If you'd prefer cosmetic color without UV exposure, consider our customized airbrush spray tanning. A spray tan does not provide sun protection, so sunscreen is still needed outdoors.
