The short answer

You need almost nothing. A corner of any room with cool air and good light is enough for a spray tan — we bring the pop-up tent, the drop cloth, the solution, the fan, everything. Teeth whitening needs a power outlet and somewhere comfy to recline. Permanent jewelry needs a table and two chairs. Mobile spray tan is $100 per person, whitening $185 per person, jewelry custom-quoted — free travel within 10 miles of our salon at 2851 1st Avenue N, one mileage fee covers the whole booking beyond that. No group minimums, no deposit.

Less space than you think — and we have the video to prove it. On a recent booking we set the full spray tent inside a client’s bathroom: tent beside the walk-in shower, drop cloth down, done. Kitchen, living room, foyer, guest room — any room with good lighting and cool air works. A private bathroom is ideal but absolutely not required.

How much space does a mobile spray tan really need?

We can also spray outdoors — a garage or by the pool — but only when it’s cool. If you’re sweating while we spray, the tan suffers, so Florida summer outdoor sprays usually move indoors. That’s us protecting your color, not being fussy.

And here’s the part almost nobody expects: if you have a walk-in shower — at home, in your Airbnb, your hotel suite, even an outdoor shower — we can spray you right inside it. We move your product bottles and shower items out of the way before we start. When we’re done, we wipe everything down with the cleaning supplies we bring and put it all back neatly. You get a spray tan, we leave, and it’s like your maid detailed your shower.

What do I need to have ready when you arrive?

For a spray tan: nothing. Exfoliate 24 hours ahead like any spray appointment, skip lotion and oil the day of, and wear something loose and dark for after. We handle the rest.

  • Spray tan — we bring the tent, drop cloth, hand-mixed solution, fan, and all prep and post products.
  • Permanent jewelry — a sturdy table or counter for the welding tool and chain display, plus two chairs. Good lighting helps; we bring everything else.
  • Teeth whitening — one standard power outlet and a comfortable reclined spot for each of up to 3 guests at a time. Sofa, recliner, even a bed — the LED light bends to you.

One heads-up worth giving us at booking: parking. If you’re at a hotel or a building with restrictions, tell us so we can plan the arrival window.

Where do you travel — and what does mobile cost?

We travel all over Tampa Bay: St. Petersburg, the beaches, Clearwater Beach, Tampa, Sarasota, Bradenton. Travel is free within 10 miles of the salon at 2851 1st Avenue N; beyond that a mileage fee applies — and if you bundle two or three services on one trip, one mileage fee covers the entire booking.

  • Mobile spray tan — $100 per person (same-day bookings add $15).
  • Mobile teeth whitening — $185 per person, up to 3 guests at a time.
  • Mobile permanent jewelry — custom-quoted by guest count, location, and setup.
  • No group minimums. No required deposit.

Full details, hotel-by-hotel notes, and the setup videos live on the mobile services page.

Can you handle a whole event — like a pageant?

We have — three pageants over the years, and the playbook is dialed in. The host hotel brings us in for the weekend: spray tans running upstairs in the contestants’ suites, and the teeth whitening station staged in the lobby just outside the ballroom — steps from the stage inside. Two services, two floors, one schedule that could not slip. That’s the same crew and the same kit that comes to your living room.

It’s also the point of the story: if the setup scales from one bathroom corner to a pageant floor, your Airbnb weekend is well within range.

Why do bachelorette groups keep booking permanent jewelry to their Airbnb?

Because it’s the keepsake that outlasts the weekend. We have done this over and over and over again: the group gathers around the welding table — a kitchen counter works — everyone picks a chain, and each piece welds on in under five minutes per person. Matching bracelets or anklets become the group photo moment and the thing everyone’s still wearing months later. Most groups bundle it with spray tans on the same visit, which also means one mileage fee for the whole trip.

Which formula should I book for a Florida event?

For beach days, boat days, and long nights on a dance floor: Sweat-Resistant Rapid ($63 in-studio; the formula built for Florida humidity). It develops in 1–4 hours, so you can be sprayed in your suite in the afternoon and rinse before dinner. Your artist will confirm your exact first-shower timing before we pack up.
