Custom Spray Tans
in Longwood, FL

A Real Custom Tan, Not an Assembly Line

Most spray tans fall into one of two categories: a 90-second pass in an automated booth, or a quick rushed application at a busy salon. Both are fine if all you need is some color. Neither is going to look great in photos, fade evenly, or hold up for the full 7 to 10 days.

A custom airbrush tan at 33 Esthetics is different. Every spray tan is applied by hand — one-on-one, in a private room — using a professional-grade rapid solution that's color-corrected to avoid the orange undertone cheap formulas produce. Before the solution touches your skin, we sit down and figure out the shade together: your skin tone, what look you want, whether you've had a spray tan before, and what's worked or hasn't.

That conversation shapes everything: how deep we go, where to build up color, how to handle your hands and feet so the result looks natural instead of obvious. The application takes 20 to 25 minutes. The full appointment is about 60.

What's Included

• Shade consultation — we calibrate the depth and undertone to your skin before the application starts
• Custom airbrush application — applied by hand, adjusted in real time, in a private room
• Hand-blending on hands, feet, wrists, and ankles so the "tell" areas look natural
• Prep and aftercare guidance — what you do in the 24 hours before and after matters more than most people realize

Pricing

Pricing is simple and includes the full session:

• New Client — $40. Your first spray tan is discounted intentionally. It's a calibration session: we figure out your shade, see how your skin takes the solution, and dial in your prep routine. Most clients book this through the New Client page.
• Returning Client — $65. Once we know what works on your skin, every session after the first is consistent — same shade, same finish, no guessing.

How to Prep (Short Version)

The result depends as much on prep as on application. The short version:

• Exfoliate the day before, not the day of
• Shave 24 hours before (or wax 48 hours before)
• Skip lotion, oil, sunscreen, and deodorant on the day of your appointment
• Wear loose, dark clothing to your appointment

The full breakdown — including aftercare — is in How to Prep for a Spray Tan and Make It Last.

How Long It Lasts

Most clients see their spray tan last 7 to 10 days with proper aftercare: lukewarm showers, daily moisturizer, and avoiding chlorine and heavy sweating in the first 24 hours. Hot showers and pool days will shorten that to closer to 5 to 7. More on the day-by-day timeline here.

Why Custom vs. a Booth

Both work. The question is what you're optimizing for. A booth gives you a 90-second tan at a low price with no customization. A custom airbrush tan gives you a longer appointment, a personalized solution, and hand-blending in the areas that usually betray a fake tan. For events, vacations, weddings, or anyone who's been burned by a streaky booth result before, custom is the safer call. Full comparison: Spray Tan Artist vs Booth — What's the Difference?
