Glow on the Go offers mobile spray tans, meaning the appointment will take place at the client's home. A space for the pop up tent that is at least 4'x4' wide and 7' tall is needed, as well as a standard electrical outlet near the tent and proper lighting.

The spray tan application takes about 10-15 minutes, however all appointments are booked in 30 minute increments. Mobile appointments take the full 30 minutes to allow for set up & tear down.

Airbrush, or spray tanning, is a service provided by a technician using a spray gun to apply a sunless tanning solution directly to the client's skin. The spray gun is attached to an air compressor and ensures an even, consistent application. 

Spray tan solutions will typically provide a tan lasting between 5-7 days. The tan will gradually fade as your skin exfoliates. Using proper after care or tan extending products will help it last.

Yes! The main ingredient in spray tan solutions, DHA, has been approved by the FDA since the 1970's. DHA penetrates the epidermis, or outer layer of skin, and poses no risk of skin cancer.

DHA, or Dihydroxiaceton, is an ingredient derived from natural ingredients found in beets and sugar cane. When DHA comes in contact with the amino acids of the skin, it creates a natural reaction that results in the skin appearing tanned.

Not at all. High quality DHA products with balanced ingredients will not cause an orange result. A certified technician will understand your skin tone and match you with the best DHA solution.

Before scheduling a spray tan always consult with your doctor, especially in the first trimester. If you have your doctor's approval, you can request a small test patch on your skin as it may be more sensitive during pregnancy. The ingredients in spray tan solutions are FDA approved, but always seek medical guidance when determining what products are safe to use while pregnant..
