Why an Airbrush Spray Tan is Better Than a Booth Tan
If you’ve ever stepped into a spray tan booth and walked out looking like a patchy, streaky, tangerine-colored mystery, we feel you. Not all spray tans are created equal, and we’re here to tell you why an airbrush spray tan at A Shore Thing Spray Tan Bar is the golden ticket to your perfect glow.
If you’re in Apex, Raleigh, Cary, Holly Springs, or Fuquay Varina, NC, and debating between an airbrush tan and a booth spray tan, let’s break it down—because not all bronze is built the same.
1. Precision, Not Guesswork 🎯
A machine booth spray tan is like letting a robot bake your favorite cake. Sure, it might turn out okay, but do you really want to take that chance? Booths spray a one-size-fits-all mist that doesn’t account for your body shape, skin tone, or tan goals.
With an airbrush tan, you get a trained spray tan artist who customizes the application for your skin tone, curves, and desired depth of color. That means no weird underarm streaks, no dark ankles, and no missed spots.
2. Customizable Color with Sjolie Tanning Solutions 🌿
At A Shore Thing Spray Tan Bar, we use Sjolie tanning solutions, which are vegan, organic, and customizable. Unlike a booth that sprays the same generic solution on everyone, our airbrush artists mix a shade that suits you perfectly. Whether you want a light sun-kissed glow or a deep, just-back-from-Bali bronze, we’ve got you covered—literally.
3. No More Orange or Overly Dark Hands & Feet 🚫🟠
Ever seen someone with a spray tan gone wrong? The most obvious giveaways are orange hands, blotchy feet, and that dreaded dark hairline. Booth tans don’t have the ability to carefully blend and adjust the solution on different areas of your body.
With an airbrush spray tan, our artists use their expert skills to apply the perfect amount of product where it’s needed—lightly on dry areas and evenly across the rest of your body, so your tan looks natural and flawless.
4. Say Goodbye to Awkward Poses & Spray Tan Malfunctions 😬
Booth tans often come with questionable instructions—“Turn left, lift your arm, do a twirl, strike a pose.” And even if you follow every step perfectly, you still might end up with uneven patches and missed areas.
An airbrush tan requires zero acrobatics. Our tan artists guide you through the process, making sure every inch of your skin gets the perfect amount of glow—no guesswork, no weird standing poses.
5. Less Mess, Less Stress 🧼
Spray tan booths can be a little, um... messy. The solution tends to settle unevenly, and if you don’t towel off correctly, you might walk out with streaks. Worse? Some booths don’t even dry you properly, leaving you feeling sticky and uncomfortable.
With an airbrush tan at A Shore Thing Spray Tan Bar, we finish off your glow with Glow by Erin finishing powder, so you leave feeling dry, comfortable, and smelling fabulous. No sticky feeling, no post-tan paranoia. Just you, looking like a bronzed goddess.
6. Expert Advice for Your Best Tan Yet 💡
Your spray tan artist is also your personal tanning coach. They’ll help you choose the best shade for your skin, give you aftercare tips, and make sure you leave with all the knowledge you need to keep your glow looking flawless for days.
A booth? Well, it just gives you a countdown timer and hopes for the best.
