    Golden Hour Tans

    Golden Hour Tans is a custom airbrush spray tan studio in Ballston, Arlington, open from early morning to late evening so your glow fits your life — before work, after work, or the morning of your big event. Step into our private studio, or book a mobile spray tan and we'll bring the glow to you anywhere in the DMV.

     

    Every custom spray tan is designed around you, matched to your skin tone and the look you want, from a subtle, natural bronze to a rich, tropical glow. Each tan is hand-applied with an airbrush using premium, paraben-free solutions for flawless, streak-free color without the damage of sun exposure.

     

    Can't make it to the studio? Our mobile spray tan service brings the full Golden Hour experience to your home, office, or event. We handle every detail, from setup to cleanup, so all you have to do is relax and glow.

    Air Brush tans

    Hand-Applied Airbrush Spray Tans - Every Golden Hour airbrush spray tan is applied by hand, never by a machine or automated booth. Unlike a booth that sprays the same amount everywhere, hand airbrushing lets us adjust the color as we go, building a deeper glow where you want it, softening areas like hands, feet, and knees, and gently contouring to enhance your natural shape. The result is an even, natural tan that's perfectly matched to your skin tone, with no streaks, patches, or orange undertones.

     

    Your appointment starts with a personal consultation. We talk through your skin tone, your undertones, and the look you want, whether that's a soft, sun-kissed glow or a deep vacation bronze, then choose the right solution and rinse time for you. The tan itself takes about 20–30 minutes, and you'll leave with simple aftercare tips so your color develops beautifully and lasts.

     

    We serve women only, so our Arlington studio is a private, welcoming space where you can relax and feel completely at ease, whether it's your first spray tan or your fiftieth. To us, a spray tan is more than color. It's a confidence boost and a little self-care, whether you're getting ready for a wedding, vacation, photoshoot, or special event, or you just want to glow every day.​

    Spray Tans for Every Occasion

    From your wedding day to your next beach getaway, Golden Hour Tans is Arlington's go-to for a glow that's ready when you are. Our bridal spray tans include a trial tan to perfect your shade before the big day, so you can walk down the aisle feeling confident and camera-ready. Planning a bachelorette, birthday, or girls' trip? Book a group or party spray tan at our Ballston studio, or we'll bring the glow to you.

     

    Heading on vacation, getting ready for a photoshoot, gala, or holiday party? A custom spray tan 1–2 days before gives you a natural, even glow that looks gorgeous in person and in photos. And if you love staying bronzed year-round, our Glow Memberships make it easy to keep your color fresh with regular tans at a lower price.

     

    However you glow, every appointment includes a personal consultation, a custom airbrush application, and aftercare tips so your tan looks its best from the first day to the last.
