Spray Tan Training in Port St. Lucie, Florida
Private. One on one. Hands on, in our studio. For the artist who wants to stop guessing and start understanding what she is actually spraying.
WE DON'T DO ORANGE. EVER.
THAT STARTS WITH TRAINING.
Real Talk
Somebody sold you a spray tan business in a weekend.
A kit. A two hour class. A certificate. And a promise that the bookings would roll in on their own. Easy money. Then you sprayed your first real client and watched the color go somewhere you did not choose. Now you second guess every pass.
You are not bad at this. You were handed a gun and skipped the part where you learn skin.
Here is the part nobody put in the sales pitch. The spray is the easy half. The business is the hard half. Undertones. Solution chemistry. Florida humidity. Pricing that keeps the lights on. Policies that protect your time. A menu that makes sense. That is what separates a hobby from a booked calendar. And every bit of it is learnable.
NOT EASY MONEY. GOOD MONEY. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE.
Your Trainer
Hi, I'm Anna.
I was a spray tan client for over ten years before I ever picked up a gun. I know what it feels like to sit in the chair and hope. I know what it feels like to walk out orange. So when I built The Glow Haven, I built it around one rule. We don't do orange. Ever.
I left corporate in 2025 and opened this studio from zero in 2026. Solo. No franchise, no playbook. Every price, policy, and product on my menu was tested on real Treasure Coast skin in real Florida humidity. That is what I teach. Not theory. What actually works, and what it actually costs.
If you are the girl who bought the kit and got the "easy money" version of this industry, come sit with me. I will tell you the truth. Then I will show you how to fix it.

Why This Exists
Most spray tan training teaches you to spray. Almost none of it teaches you to think.
You can learn to hold a gun in an afternoon. What separates a good spray tan artist from a booked one is understanding undertones, DHA percentages, bronzer behavior, hydration, development, and how to read a client's skin before you ever mix a thing.
That is what we train. Technique, yes. But the reasoning underneath it, so the next time a client walks in with olive undertones and a wedding on Saturday, you know exactly what to reach for. No hoping.
Every session is private, in studio, and built around where you actually are. No group pacing. No watching someone else get the hands on time you paid for.
Training is held in Tradition, Port St. Lucie, and artists travel to us from Stuart, Jensen Beach, Palm City, Fort Pierce, Jupiter, Vero Beach, and across the Treasure Coast.
Who This Is For
Artists at every stage, taught one at a time.
- The artist who bought the kit, took the weekend class, and still does not trust her results
- Artists who own a spray tan setup and have lost their confidence with it
- Estheticians, cosmetologists, and salon owners adding sunless to an existing menu
- Working artists whose results have gone inconsistent and who cannot figure out why
- Anyone learning to spray tan from zero who wants to start correctly the first time
Who This Is Not For
- Anyone shopping for the cheapest certificate she can find
- Anyone who wants to be handed a script instead of an education
- Anyone still looking for the version of this that is easy. It is not. It is worth it.
Training Options
Four ways to work together.
Every option is private and one on one. Pricing is per person and does not change based on how many people you bring, because the whole point is that the time is yours. Not sure which one? Book the call. I will tell you, even if the answer is the smaller one.
The Refresher

- Full equipment audit. Your gun, your settings, your pressure, your maintenance habits
- Technique rebuild. Distance, angle, speed, overlap, and the passes that cause streaking
- Positioning and contouring that photographs well and does not look painted on
- Solution selection. Undertones, DHA levels, bronzer types, and how to match instead of guess
- Troubleshooting lab. Bring your worst results and we diagnose them together
- Live application. You spray a real model with me beside you, start to finish
- Written recap after, with your specific corrections in writing
You bring your own setup and one model. Need us to provide a model? Add $75. A $250 deposit holds your date.

Let's Be Clear
This is professional training. It is not a certification.
We are not a licensing body and we will never pretend to be one. What you leave with is skill, judgment, and a written record of your session. If you need a formal certificate for insurance or licensing, get one, and then come here to actually learn how to spray.
You are responsible for your own licensing, insurance, and local requirements. We will tell you what to look into. We will not tell you that you are covered.
Every Session Includes
What you actually leave with.
- Private studio time. No group, no audience, no shared hands on
- Direct feedback in the moment, not a video you watch later
- A written recap of your specific corrections after your session
- An honest assessment of where you are and what to work on next
Booking & Policies
How a date gets held.
- A $250 non refundable deposit holds your date and applies to your balance
- Remaining balance is due the day of your session
- Dates are held for you and cannot be resold last minute, so deposits do not transfer inside 14 days
- Models must be confirmed 72 hours before your session
- Training starts with a free inquiry call. We take a small number of artists and we want it to be the right fit
Training takes place in our private studio inside Prestige Nail Spa in Tradition, Port St. Lucie, Florida.
Questions
Spray tan training FAQ.
I was told this would be easy money. Was I lied to?
A little. Spray tanning can absolutely support you. But "easy" was the sales pitch, not the job. Skill plus a real business structure is what makes the money. That is exactly what we work on.
I have not sprayed in years. Am I too far gone?
No. Time away is the most common reason artists reach out, and it is the easiest thing to fix. The skill comes back faster than the confidence does. That is exactly what The Refresher is built for.
Do I need my own spray tan equipment?
For The Refresher, yes. Bring what you actually use so we can fix what you actually spray with. For The Foundation, equipment and solution are provided for the day.
Do I need to bring a model?
Yes. One for The Refresher, two for The Foundation. Models tan free. If you cannot find one, let us know when you apply and we will work it out.
Is this a spray tan certification?
No. This is professional hands on training, not a certification. We are not a licensing body. You leave with skill, judgment, and a written record of your session, and you remain responsible for your own licensing and insurance.
Where does the training take place?
In our private studio inside Prestige Nail Spa in Tradition, Port St. Lucie. Artists travel to us from Stuart, Jensen Beach, Palm City, Fort Pierce, Jupiter, and Vero Beach.
Will you train someone who works in your area?
We review that case by case and we are honest about it up front. If you are building in the same market, say so when you apply and we will have a real conversation about it rather than a surprise later.
Why is this more than an online course?
Because an online course cannot watch your hands. Everything expensive about a bad tan comes from something a video cannot see you doing.
Can I just email you first?
Yes. hello@theglowhaventan.com. Tell me where you are and what is going wrong. I read every one.
Ready
Tell me where you are.
Start with a free 15 minute call. No pitch. No pressure. We talk through where you are, what you are working with, and which session actually fits you, even if that means telling you that you do not need the expensive one. Would rather type it out first? Email works too.
