Mobile Spray Tan

A spray tan service performed at the client's home, hotel, or event venue rather than at a studio.

Mobile spray tan is a service model in which the artist travels to the client — typically a home, hotel room, or event venue — instead of the client coming to a studio. Mobile artists carry a portable HVLP setup, a pop-up tent with extractor fan, and a kit of solutions, barrier creams, and disposables. Mobile pricing typically runs 25–50% above in-studio rates to cover travel time, setup/teardown, and fuel. Common venues: bridal parties at the wedding hotel, prom groups at one client's home, bachelorette parties, fitness competition prep at a competition hotel. Mobile is the fastest-growing segment of the spray tan industry, particularly post-2022 as consumer preference shifted toward convenience. Bronzly's Glow tier ($79/mo) is purpose-built for mobile artists with one location, one staff (owner), and includes the appointment-booking, deposit, and rinse-reminder workflow that makes mobile operation manageable.
