1. Step 1

   Find your studio's Bronzly booking link

   Get the link from your studio's Instagram bio, Google Business Profile, or text message. Most studios use a link like [studioname].bronzly.app or a custom domain on the studio's website.

2. Step 2

   Choose your service

   Most studios offer Classic (8-hour development, the default), Rapid (1–4 hour development for last-minute), and sometimes Competition (extra-dark for events). Read the description to pick the right one for your timeline.

3. Step 3

   Pick a time

   Available slots show in your studio's local time zone. Bronzly only shows slots that don't conflict with the artist's existing bookings, so any slot you can pick is real.

4. Step 4

   Save a card on file ($10 pre-auth)

   First-time clients save a card on file. Bronzly places a $10 pre-authorization (held but not charged) to verify the card is valid. The card is used for the deposit, the service charge, and any no-show fee per the studio's policy.

5. Step 5

   Confirm the booking

   Review the appointment, deposit amount, and cancellation policy. Tap confirm. You'll receive an SMS and email confirmation within seconds.

6. Step 6

   Watch for prep instructions 24 hours before

   Bronzly sends an SMS 24 hours before your appointment with the studio's prep checklist (shaving, exfoliation, no day-of moisturizer). Follow it carefully — it determines how good your tan looks.

7. Step 7

   Watch for the rinse reminder

   After your tan, Bronzly automatically sends an SMS at the exact rinse window for the solution your artist used (1–4 hours for rapid, 8 hours for classic, overnight for some solutions). Rinse with lukewarm water only, no soap or scrubbing.
