Is a spray tanning business expensive to start?

Not at all. If anything, it is one of the most inexpensive beauty businesses to start up, as most states do not require a cosmetology license. Even though we offer spray tan solution and products you are not required to purchase it to take the course. Start up price will vary depending on your specific needs but for a basic start up for a machine and supplies you are looking at anywhere from $400-$1000. There are more expensive equipment options and ventilation systems available but this is for most peoples basic needs when first starting out.

Where do you offer the hands on training?

How much money can I make having a spray tan business?

This is going to be based on various factors depending on region and how many clients you get a week. Spray tanning sessions range from $35 to even $85 or more depending on your geographical area. I recommend you looking at the competition in your area to get an idea of what the going session rate is. But for demonstration purposes, lets figure on the middle end what your potential earnings can be. A session takes an average of 20 minutes in a salon so successful spray tanners have the opportunity to be able to spray up to over 20 clients in a day!

These figures are just estimates. For example you can spray 3-4 clients in per hour. ( Once you get experienced you can spray more. I can tan up to 6-7 alone per hour) That’s approximately $200 per hour! Then factor in tips and profit on aftercare. Tanning parties even add more income to the pot and you can eventually earn up to hundreds of dollars a day ! That’s more per hour than most people make in a day!

(*Disclaimer* Financial success is not guaranteed . Taking the training or certification course will just help provide you with the basic skills that you need to start your business . Just like anything else in life your success is solely dependent on how much effort and work that you put into building your business.)

Do I need equipment or start up packages?

You are not required to purchase or have any equipment in order to take the training. If you do have your own machine you can be trained on that if taking a private 1 on 1 hands on class. We also offer discounted starter kits . It does not have to be expensive to start a sunless tanning business and we offer different options and packages to help you start your business. Equipment recommendations can be provided via consultation to get an idea of your specific business needs.
