Booking + Mobile Setup

How mobile spray tanning works.

Feel Good Glow Co. is mobile, which means Rachel brings the professional setup to your home, hotel, bridal suite, event space, or chosen location.

Where does my spray tan appointment happen?

Your appointment happens wherever you feel most comfortable. Rachel can come to your home, hotel room, bridal suite, event space, or another approved location.

What does Rachel bring?

Rachel brings a clean, professional mobile tanning setup, including her spray equipment, pop-up tent, professional spray tan solutions, prep products, finishing powder, and aftercare guidance.

What do I need to have ready?

Please have a clean area available with enough room for the pop-up tent and access to an electrical outlet. It is also helpful to have loose, dark clothing ready for after your appointment.

How do I book?

You can book online through Rachel’s online booking page. For larger group appointments, event bookings, or special timing questions, reach out before booking.

Before Your Tan

Prep makes all the difference.

The best spray tan results start before your appointment. Clean, exfoliated skin helps the color apply evenly and fade more naturally.

How should I prep before my spray tan?

Shower, shave, and exfoliate 12–24 hours before your tan. On the day of your appointment, have clean, dry skin and avoid lotion, oil, deodorant, perfume, and makeup.

For the full checklist, visit the Prep & Aftercare Guide.

Can I wear lotion, deodorant, makeup, or perfume?

For best results, avoid lotions, oils, deodorant, makeup, and perfume before your appointment. These can create a barrier on the skin and may affect how evenly the tan develops.

When should I shave or exfoliate?

Shave and exfoliate 12–24 hours before your appointment. This gives your skin time to settle before the spray tan is applied.

What should I wear during the appointment?

Wear whatever feels comfortable and gives you the tan lines you want. Rachel keeps the experience private, professional, and guided from start to finish.

What should I wear after my tan?

Wear loose, dark clothing and comfortable shoes if possible. Avoid tight clothing while your tan is processing.

During Your Appointment

Custom color, never cookie-cutter.

Every tan is customized to your skin tone, undertone, comfort level, and desired result.

How does Rachel choose my spray tan shade?

Rachel starts with a quick consultation to understand your skin tone, undertone, event timing, and desired glow. From there, she customizes the solution so the final color feels natural and flattering.

Will my spray tan look orange?

The goal is always natural-looking color. Rachel customizes each tan to your skin tone and desired result to avoid a one-size-fits-all look.

What is included with a custom spray tan?

A custom spray tan includes personalized color matching, prep guidance, barrier and pH balancing spray, hydrating post-tan spray, finishing powder, and aftercare guidance.

What is a Rapid Rinse tan?

Rapid Rinse is an upgraded option designed for a more flexible rinse window. Depending on your desired color and Rachel’s guidance, you may be ready to rinse in 1–3 hours.

How long does an appointment take?

Appointment length may vary depending on the service, setup, consultation, and whether it is an individual or group booking. Rachel’s booking page will show the service details for each appointment type.

Aftercare

Protect your glow after you leave the tent.

Aftercare helps your tan develop evenly, last longer, and fade more naturally.

What should I avoid after my spray tan?

While your tan is processing, avoid water, sweating, tight clothing, lotion, oil, deodorant, and anything that may rub against the skin.

When do I rinse after my tan?

Your rinse time depends on the solution used and your desired result. Rachel will give you specific rinse instructions after your appointment. If you choose the Rapid Rinse upgrade, your rinse window may be 1–3 hours.

How should I rinse?

Use lukewarm water only for your first rinse. Avoid soaps, scrubs, shaving, or exfoliating during that first rinse unless Rachel instructs otherwise.

How long will my spray tan last?

Most spray tans last about 7–10 days depending on your skin type, prep, aftercare, lifestyle, and how often you moisturize.

How do I make my tan last longer?

Moisturize daily after your first rinse, use gentle tan-safe body wash and lotion, avoid harsh exfoliating, and limit swimming, hot tubs, and long soaking baths when possible.

More Questions

A few extra things to know.

Still unsure? Rachel can guide you toward the right service and shade before your appointment.

Can I get a spray tan while pregnant or breastfeeding?

If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have allergies, skin sensitivities, or medical concerns, check with your doctor before booking. You can also let Rachel know ahead of time so she can talk through product and comfort considerations.

Can I work out after my spray tan?

Avoid sweating while your tan is processing. After your first rinse and once the tan has developed, you can return to your normal routine, but heavy sweating may cause the tan to fade faster.

Can I swim after my spray tan?

Swimming, chlorine, and long periods in water can shorten the life of your tan. Wait until after your first rinse and follow Rachel’s aftercare guidance for best results.

What if I am nervous or new to spray tanning?

That is completely okay. Rachel’s experience is guided, private, and comfortable. She will walk you through the process, help choose your shade, and explain aftercare before she leaves.
