Don’t Be Like Ross: Why a Custom Airbrush Tan with a Pro Beats a Booth Every Time

If you’ve seen the iconic Friends episode where Ross tries to get a spray tan, you know exactly how quickly things can go wrong. While it’s hilarious on screen (we’ll never forget his 8-2 count mishap!), in real life, a streaky or uneven tan is the last thing anyone wants before a big event or vacation.

The truth is, automated tanning booths are designed to be quick and convenient - but they can’t offer the same personalized touch and expert eye as a professional airbrush tan. Here’s why choosing a custom tan with an experienced technician is always worth it if you want the best spray tan in Los Angeles or anywhere else:

Personalized Color for Your Unique Glow

Your skin tone, undertones, and personal preferences all play a role in creating the perfect shade. A booth simply can’t match that. A professional artist customizes the formula and application so your tan looks natural, radiant, and uniquely you.

Expert Application, Every Time

With a technician, you’ll get guidance on how to stand, turn, and pose to ensure every angle is flawless. We pay attention to detail - blending seamlessly at tricky areas like hands, feet, elbows, and knees - so you walk away with an even, effortless glow.

Real-Time Adjustments

A booth can't tell if your skin is dry in certain spots or if you need an extra layer for a deeper glow. A pro can adjust on the spot, making sure your tan develops beautifully and suits your plans, whether it’s for a wedding, photoshoot, or just because.

A Confidence-Boosting Experience

Beyond the technical side, there’s something special about the one-on-one experience of a custom tan. You leave not only looking your best but feeling taken care of - like your glow was designed just for you.

So, if Ross’s legendary tan fail taught us anything, it’s this: for a flawless, camera-ready glow, skip the booth and trust the hands of a pro.
