Rapid Spray Tans:
Achieving that Head-to-Toe Glow!
Juniper Introduces Rapid Spray Tans to all NEW and Established Clients! Nothing can get your skin that golden-brown and sun-kissed glow faster (and safer) than a quick and easy rapid spray tan! At Juniper, we now offer private and customizable rapid spray tans in Bozeman for any event. Whether you’re a soon-to-be bride, prepping for a competition or photoshoot, have an upcoming party, Prom, or corporate event, flying out for vacation or have a quick weekend getaway, enjoying a concert or rodeo, want to rock a summer dress or sleeveless top, or just need a nice pick-me-up for a quick confidence boost – we have a shade for any and every occasion!

Rapid Spray Tans vs. Traditional Spray Tans – Rapid spray tans are a type of sunless tanning treatment that allows you to rinse off the bronzer anywhere from 1-5 hours after getting sprayed. Clients can expect to develop their tan in a significantly shorter timeframe making the process extremely convenient and considerably less messy. Traditional Spray Tans require the client to allow the bronzer to develop, usually overnight, for at least 8-12 hours. Clients are required to avoid any water, sweating, and wearing tight clothing during the developmental period. The slow developing bronzer gets on all clothes and bedsheets which in turn creates more laundry and cleanup. Because it’s difficult to avoid things like water (think, washing your hands) there are considerably more risks for uneven development on the face, hands, and body.
Rapid Spray Tans vs. Tanning Beds – We can’t say it any other way… Tanning beds are dangerous (significantly increasing your risk for dangerous skin cancers and fast-tracking aging, wrinkles, and old-looking skin). Rapid Spray Tans are considered safer than tanning beds because they don’t involve exposure to UV radiation, which causes skin damage and premature aging. Spray Tans use a solution containing DHA, a sugar that reacts with the skin proteins to create a temporary tan. Rapid Spray Tans are also a quick, 20 minute treatment, that gets you bronzed within a few short hours and generally last 7-10 days. Despite tanning bed dangers, they require multiple sessions, significant hours to days of exposure to start even seeing tanned skin, time off from work and activities to attend appointments, and are also considerably more expensive given the numerous sessions that are required. Tanning beds can also burn the skin, furthering damaging and increasing melanoma risk, while rapid spray tan ingredients are gentle and safe.

Preparing for Your Rapid Spray Tan
24-48 Hours Before Your Appointment:
- Exfoliate Thoroughly:
- Use a gentle exfoliator (loofah, scrub, polish, or exfoliating glove) to remove dead skin cells on face and body
- Extra focus on dry areas like elbows, knees, ankles, and hands
- Shave or Wax:
- Complete any hair removal at least 24 hours before your tan to avoid irritation and to help your tan last longer (shaving after your spray tan can remove the bronzer)
- This allows pores to close, reducing the risk of a spotted appearance
- Avoid All Oil-Based Products:
- Skip lotions, oils, perfumes, and deodorants, which can create barriers and cause uneven tanning, or make it more difficult to the bronzer to adhere to your skin
The Day of Your Spray Tan:
- Shower Before Your Appointment:
- Use a gentle, oil-free body wash and exfoliate from head to toe
- Avoid using bar soap or anything with heavy moisturizers.
- Do Not Apply Makeup, Lotions or any Skincare!
- Arrive with clean, dry skin to ensure the best adhesion.
- Wear Loose, Dark Clothing and Skip Bras, Underwear and Socks
- Choose loose, dark-colored clothing and sandals to prevent rubbing and staining.
- Bring a Hair Tie and Lip Balm:
- Keep hair off your face and use lip balm to protect lips.
Additional Tips:
- Stay Hydrated: Well-hydrated skin will maintain your tan longer.
- Schedule Activities Carefully: Avoid sweating, swimming, or exercising for at least 8 hours after your tan.
- Frequently Apply Oil-Free Lotion: Added moisture through frequent lotion applications will help maintain the longevity of your rapid spray tan in Bozeman


The Rapid Spray Tan Process
1
Consultation
You will be required to fill out our short and confidential client questionnaire before your spray tan and we recommend that you thoroughly read the pre-spray instructions we will supply you via text message upon booking with us. Once you arrive, we will discuss any upcoming events you are prepping for and decide on a customized shade and color that will suit you best. We will answer any questions you may have and go over post-spray care to ensure your results look even and are long-lasting!
2
Getting Sprayed
We will step out of the spray tan room and allow you to undress and put on a robe. Our providers will enter when you are ready and you will step into our large spray tan glow booth. Most men and women strip down to their birthday suit to avoid tan lines. However, if you choose to leave on your bra and underwear you may absolutely do so. We will also have disposable cloth thongs for you to use, too, if you so desire. Once inside the glow booth, we will direct you on how to position yourself throughout the spray session to ensure you have the best coverage with the most even results. We typically spray each area 1-2 times, depending on your goal shade. Once completed, we will step out of the room again and allow you to get dressed in your dark and loose fitted clothing.

Your Results
After your spray, we will provide you with a “Rinsing Guide” that specifically instructs you when to rinse for the desired shade and bronzed color you’re looking for! Please remember that you spray tan will continue to develop (darken) 12-24 hours after your first shower, too. So if you rinse and feel like you don’t look ‘tan enough,’ just remain patient to let the bronzer do its trick!
We offer the best oil and fragrance free lotion, also perfect for sensitive skin, for purchase to help maintain the longevity of your spray tan in Bozeman.
Avoid shaving arms and legs for the next week to maintain your tan and carefully review all the post-spray instructions we provide you.
Lastly, we also sell inexpensive exfoliating gloves that will help remove your bronzer (when you start fading) and prepare you for your next rapid spray tan at Juniper!
We also maintain a ‘round the clock’ service, so expect a check-in text from us next day and if you need any touch-ups or have any concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact us 24/7!

FAQs about Rapid Spray Tans
- Do you have availability weekdays Monday - Friday? I don't see any availability when checking your online booking. Help!
-
We offer spray tans during weekday hours, Monday – Friday, however, clients are not able to book those online. Please text Mady at 406-465-1240 for all availability during daytime hours to schedule your spray tan!
*Our online daytime schedule will look like we don’t have any openings but WE DO! 🙂
Also, please book your spray tan online FIRST for evening and weekend appointments! If you are looking for daytime appointments, PLEASE text Mady (406-465-1240) for availability and to get scheduled!
- How will I know what shade is right for my skin?
-
That’s why we are here! Here’s a quick and easy guide:
Fair Skin: Opt for light or medium shades with a subtle golden undertone. We would advise avoiding overly dark shades to prevent an unnatural look.
Medium Skin: Choose medium to dark shades with either golden or olive undertones for a natural glow!
Dark Skin: Deep or ultra-dark shades with a warm undertone can enhance your natural complexion without looking ashy.
We can also offer you a consultation where we only complete a patch test on a less visible area (like your thigh) to see how it develops! This is a great recommendation for brides or before big events!
- My wedding/big event is coming up and I’m scared I’m going to look orange or too dark? What can we do so this doesn’t happen?
-
We highly recommend either doing a patch test on a less visible area (like your thigh) or completing a full body spray several weeks out before your big day so we can determine the perfect shade that’s right for you and your skin tone!
Patch testing can be difficult for some, though, as it’s sometimes hard to visual what that particular shade will look like on your entire body. We do recommend full body trial runs as a way to pick the perfect shade!
- What if none of your appointment times work for my schedule? Is there a way that I could still get sprayed?
-
Yes! We are very accommodating here at Juniper!
Please book your spray tan online first for evening and weekend appointments! If you are looking for daytime appointments, PLEASE text Mady (406-465-1240) for availability!
We do see clients during the day Monday – Friday, however, you have to text Mady (see above) for her availability! *Our online daytime schedule will look like we don’t have any openings but WE DO! 🙂
If there is no open availability during the evening and weekend hours (all week day evenings 5-8:30PM and throughout the weekends), please text/call our Spray Tan Artist, Catie, at 415-488-7559 and she will help coordinate a time for you.
Both providers are certified and trained in rapid spray tans!
- How many days before my event should I get sprayed?
-
We recommend getting sprayed 2 days before your event (wedding, photoshoot, party, etc.). If you’re wanting to get sprayed before a vacation/trip, the day before you leave is totally acceptable!
- Are you going to spray me naked?
-
We will spray you however you prefer! Most men and women get sprayed completely naked but if you prefer to leave on your bra and underwear, you can absolutely do so! We will also provide disposable cloth thongs and black robes for covering yourself before your spray, too!
- What is a partial spray tan?
-
Partial spray tans are for clients who want to be sprayed only on their upper or lower body. A “Hips-Up” spray tan is for those who would be wearing a long dress or pants and wouldn’t be showing their legs or ankles and don’t feel getting their legs sprayed would be necessary. Others might already be tan from the natural sun on their face, shoulders and arms and don’t need their upper body sprayed, so they opt for a “Hips-Down” approach. Partial Spray Tans are $35.
- Do you spray men?
-
All the time! And a lot of clients will bring in their spouses or boyfriends but we have plenty of men who schedule solo, too! We spray men naked as well, but if they choose to wear their own underwear or the disposable cloth thong we provide, we will spray them however they feel most comfortable!
- What are your spray tan hours?
-
We offer rapid spray tans all days of the week and weekend!
Our medical esthetician, Mady, runs our sprays Monday – Friday during daytime hours and Wednesday evenings from 530 – 8PM.
Our spray tan artist, Catie, runs our sprays Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday evenings from 5:30-8:30PM and throughout the entire weekend (10A-5PM).
We ask that you please check our online schedule FIRST for booking spray tans in Bozeman, but if you cannot find a time that works best for your schedule, please text Mady at 406-465-1240 during her spray tan hours and Catie at 415-488-7559 during hers for assistance. The girls will do their best to work with you to find a convenient time to come in!
- Where are you located?
-
We are located in Four Corners, about 10 minutes west of downtown Bozeman. Our address is 155 Mill Town Loop, Unit 2D, Suite D. Once you book, one of our providers will provide you with a welcome text that will include not only our address but photos, too, to make it really easy and convenient to find us! Once you arrive, you will take the stairs to our lobby and have a seat on our royal blue coach. Our providers will be out to grab you shortly!
- Will my real, polish or acrylic nails get stained?
-
No! Nails do not get stained during this process but our providers will wipe your toes and fingers clean (even if you don’t have polish on your nails) immediately following your spray tan to remove any extra residue!
- How do I book an appointment with you?
-
You will want to head over to our online booking – CLICK HERE TO BOOK – and scroll down to where you will find the category that says, “Rapid SPRAY TANS.” Select that option and then click your desired appointment. Please read the descriptions carefully to ensure you’re booking exactly the appointment that you want! There will also be options to book a session with you and a friend, too, as we also provide group spray sessions!
- Can I get spray tanned while pregnant or nursing?
-
Getting a spray tan while pregnant is not recommended by the American Academy of Dermatology with standard DHA solutions (the most commonly used). Although the main ingredient, DHA (Dihydroxyacetone), is considered safe by the FDA because it only affects the outer layer of the skin, inhaling the particles is the top concern – particularly for pregnant women.
Getting a spray tan while lactating is considered safe, however, because the DHA does not penetrate deep enough to enter the bloodstream or affect the breast milk.
Ultimately, the choice is yours and we encourage clients to make the decision they’re most comfortable with. While DHA is FDA safe, the ADA has shared concerns with pregnant women and lactating women inhaling the solution. Here at Juniper, we always operate an extraction fan that assists in pulling the solution particles from the air (and away from you), we can also open windows in our suite, and we have disposable nose plugs as well. Please contact your OBGYN for her or his best recommendations before scheduling!
- What is your cancellation policy?
-
Juniper Spray Tans have a 24-Hour Cancellation Policy. If you need to reschedule, and it happens to be within 24 hours of your upcoming appointment, there is a $25 fee that will be charged to the credit card on file. If clients NO SHOW their spray tan, then their credit card will be run for the entire amount of the spray tan in which they booked originally.
Clients are able to reschedule their spray tans online themselves if it is 24 hours prior to their appointment time. Clients are not able to reschedule or cancel their appointments if trying to do so 24 hours (or less) before their scheduled appointment spray tan.
If you need to cancel, or reschedule, you can always ask us for help by reaching out – and texting the providers is best (and yields the fastest response times).
- Is it OK to get waxed, a facial or a pedicure immediately after my spray tan?
-
No, we highly recommend you do any of these other treatments prior, or once your spray tan wears off!
- Will the Rapid Spray Tan stain my clothes?
-
It could. There is a chance that any spray tan solution could stain clothes so it’s best to wear loose, black clothing to your spray tan appointment and promptly wash your clothes as soon as you can after your first initial rinse. Keep in mind that some particular type of fabric can also stain more easily and that includes nylon, silk, wool, and polyester.
- How safe are the ingredients found in the Rapid Spray Tan Solution?
-
Spray tan solutions/ingredients are generally considered safe, especially when using the active ingredient dihydroxyacetone (DHA), which is approved by the FDA for external use. However, some individuals may experience allergic reactions to DHA or other ingredients in the solution, and inhalation of the spray can cause respiratory issues in some cases.
Other DHA facts to consider:- DHA is the main ingredient that causes the skin to darken, and it’s considered safe for topical use
- DHA reacts with amino acids in the top layer of the skin, creating a temporary color
- DHA is not absorbed into the bloodstream to any significant degree
- Spray tans in Big Sky – Do you cater to Big Sky residents?
-
Yes! We offer spray tans to everyone and are conveniently located just west of Bozeman, in Four Corners – which is an ideal location for our Big Sky residents and clients!
- Can I exfoliate AFTER my spray tan?
-
We highly highly recommend that you avoid any type of exfoliants after you get sprayed – such as exfoliating polishes and products (soaps), loofahs, shaving, exfoliating gloves, etc. Exfoliating the face and body within the week after your spray tan is a sure-fire way to remove the bronzer quickly, cause streaking and/or create an uneven coloring.
