Direct answer
Mobile Spray Tan Cost runs $19.99–$65 for the services documented below. That figure comes from 18 separate published amounts, not a single quote. The wider set of charges on this page spans $5–$599 once fees, add-ons and package items are included.
Spray tan (booth) is priced on time and product, not on a fixed rate card, and that is why two quotes in the same city can differ by 57% for the same service name.

What the brand actually publishes
Everything below was published by a source listed at the foot of this page. Grouping matters: 6 of these 18 lines are actual services and the rest are add-ons, plans or policy charges that should never be averaged together.

National price context for these services
This table is market context, not a brand price list. It exists so you can tell whether a quote you have been given is average, cheap or steep for the U.S. in 2026.
| Service | Market low | National median | Market high | Unit | What drives it |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spray tan (booth) | $25 | $45 | $75 | per session | Booth is cheaper; hand airbrush costs more. |
| UV bed - level 1 | $6 | $11 | $18 | per session | Base-level bed, longest exposure time. |
| UV bed - level 2 | $10 | $16 | $26 | per session | Faster bronzing bed. |
| UV bed - level 3 | $15 | $23 | $36 | per session | High-pressure or hybrid equipment. |
| UV bed - level 4/5 | $22 | $34 | $55 | per session | Top-tier beds and stand-ups. |
| Airbrush tan (technician) | $40 | $65 | $120 | per session | Technician-applied and contourable. |
| Red-light session | $15 | $28 | $50 | per session | Wellness service, not a tanning service. |
National planning ranges. A quote outside these bands is not automatically wrong - check what is included before judging it.
The same service, four different markets
Before deciding a quote is high, check it against your own market rather than the national number. A $68 quote is costly in a tier-4 market and unremarkable in tier 1.
| Market tier | Planning range | Multiplier | Example markets |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 - highest-cost metros | $61–$79 | 1.35–1.75× | Manhattan, San Francisco, Boston, Seattle, Washington DC, Miami Beach |
| Tier 2 - large metros | $50–$59 | 1.10–1.32× | Chicago, Los Angeles suburbs, Denver, Austin, Atlanta, San Diego, Portland |
| Tier 3 - mid-size metros | $42–$50 | 0.94–1.10× | Columbus, Kansas City, Charlotte, Nashville, Phoenix, Indianapolis |
| Tier 4 - small metro and rural | $31–$42 | 0.70–0.93× | Smaller cities, county seats and rural markets |
Bands scale the $45 national median by published metro cost multipliers. Planning ranges, not quotes.
Where the extra money goes
Ask about these at booking, not at checkout. Each is easier to decline on the phone than once you are in the chair.
- Single session versus packagesaves 15–45%
Packages and memberships change the per-session cost sharply.
- Solution or lotion+$20–$90
Sold alongside almost every tanning service.
- Equipment level+$8–$40
Higher levels shorten session time and raise the price.
- Session length bookedaffects time, not the menu price
Longer slots on lower-level beds cost less per minute.

What the bill looks like at checkout
Work it forwards once and you will never be caught out again. A $40 service does not cost $40.
| Line | Amount | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Base service | $40 | The line you see on the menu |
| One typical add-on | $8 | Accepted at the chair without a stated price |
| Subtotal | $48 | Before tax and gratuity |
| Sales tax at 6.2% | $2.98 | Varies by state and city; services are taxable in some states only |
| Gratuity at 22% | $10.56 | Calculated on the service, not on tax |
| Sensible total | $61.54 | 54% above the menu price |
Illustrative. The 6.2% tax figure varies by state - several states do not tax personal services at all.
Plan for the total, not the base. The $22 gap between the two is the part people forget when comparing two salons.
You can do this with your own quote rather than doing this by hand.
Twelve months of spray tan (booth), priced out
A single $45 appointment is easy to justify. Maintained every 10-14 days in season, spray tan (booth) becomes a $648 annual commitment at the national median — and that is the number worth deciding on.
| Provider level | Each visit | Visits/yr | Service spend | Gratuity | Annual total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Budget provider | $25 | 12 | $300 | $60 | $360 |
| National median | $45 | 12 | $540 | $108 | $648 |
| Premium provider | $75 | 12 | $900 | $180 | $1,080 |
Gratuity is included at 20% because it is expected rather than optional. Remove it if you prefer to budget on a separate line.
The lever most people reach for - switching salons - is usually the weakest one. Moving from the $45 median to the $25 budget end saves $288 annually, but so does just stretching the interval by a quarter.
Membership break-even: the only maths that matters
The honest test is your sensible visit count, not your intended one. Most people overestimate by 30–50%. Take the number below and check it against how you behaved last quarter.
| Monthly plan | Per-visit rate | Break-even | Annual visits needed | Annual cost | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $63 / month | $45 | 1.4 visits | 17 visits | $756 | Worthwhile above 1.4/month |
| $99 / month | $45 | 2.2 visits | 26 visits | $1,188 | Worthwhile above 2.2/month |
| $144 / month | $45 | 3.2 visits | 38 visits | $1,728 | Worth it above 3.2/month |
Break-even = monthly fee / per-visit price. At $45 a visit the maths is simple enough to do at the counter.
You can test this against your real visit count against your actual visit count.
How much to tip on this service
Two rules do most of the work: tip on the service before tax, and tip the person who performed it.
| Gratuity rate | On $25 | On $45 | On $75 | When it applies |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15% | $3.75 | $6.75 | $11.25 | Standard for a satisfactory service |
| 18% | $4.50 | $8.10 | $13.50 | Common default in mid-size and large metros |
| 20% | $5 | $9 | $15 | Typical for a stylist you intend to rebook with |
| 25% | $6.25 | $11.25 | $18.75 | Reserved for complex colour, long appointments or a rescue job |
- Do not tip on membership dues, booth rent, deposits, annual fees, gift-card loads or cancellation charges — no service was performed.
- If the salon owner performed the service, tipping is optional by norm - though seldom refused.
- Card tips may be pooled or delayed to the next pay run. Ask if you want it to reach one person directly.
- A no-show or late-cancellation fee is a penalty, not a service. It is not tipped.
What people get wrong here
These are the ones that generate complaints. Each is prevented by one question up front rather than at checkout.
- 1Buying a package before knowing your session cadencecosts $40–$150
Packages expire at many salons.
- 2Comparing session prices across different bed levelscosts $10–$40
Level 1 and level 4 are not the same product.

Exactly what to ask when you book
Ask these when you book rather than on arrival. Once you are gowned and in the chair, declining an add-on becomes socially much harder — which is precisely why they are offered there.
- "Is there a first-visit offer or a package rate I should know about?"
- "Which provider tier is that quote for, and what does the next tier up cost?"
- "What is your cancellation window, and what is the charge if I miss it?"
- "What is the precise price for spray tan (booth) at my hair length and density?"
- "Can you email or text me the quote before my appointment?"
- "Do you take a deposit, and does it come off the final balance?"
- "Is a shampoo, blow-dry or finish included in that price, or billed on a separate line?"
At checkout: check the itemised total against the quote before paying. Corrections are straightforward at the desk and nearly impossible afterwards.
Your other options, and when each wins
Before deciding, it is worth seeing where this sits against the nearest alternatives on both price and what you get for it.
