our values

We're not a regular spray tan salon, we're a cool spray tan salon. That means we run our glow up queendom by a set of core values to ensure you get the best experience you can't stop raving about, every time.

Passionate

Collaborative

bold as heck

Supportive

Our founders were former "competitors" until they joined forces to bring an even better spray tan experience to the Vancouver area.

There's nothing wrong with having a little sassy in your swagger! We show our clients they deserve to have main character energy.

Passion for spray tanning is what drove us together - this isn't just a hobby for us! We are truly obsessed with the spray tan industry and know the incredible power of adding a little glow to the skin. 

We know not everyone is comfortable unrobing for a spray tan - that's why we aim to create the most comfortable and supportive experience before, during and even after your tan with us.

The absolute BEST spray tan you can get is a Shonda spray tan! Perfectly color matched every single time, never any streaks or weird patches. It’s always the best feeling just being around Shonda who is so sweet and inviting, she makes her customers feel so comfortable and beautiful for who they are. I recommend her to everyone needing a spray tan!

I quite literally couldn’t survive without Emily! She is the absolute best and getting my airbrush is my favorite part of my week. I had been using the Versa booth for years and finally made the switch to airbrush. SO glad that I did! Emily is friendly, welcoming and super knowledgeable. I have a great experience every time and I leave feeling so good about myself.

Shonda is the best! She right away made me feel comfortable and welcome! Her energy is amazing and the tan is even more fabulous! She's affordable and really cares for all her clients. Thank you for making me feel and look amazing!

Emily has tanned for me years and every visit with her has been spectacular! She is so personable and you leave feeling more beautiful, inside and out. The love she has for her business reflects onto her flawless work. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and wholeheartedly cares about what she does.

Before hooking up with my girl Emily to start Spray Tan Lounge, I owned and operated Sunkissed by Shonda for 5 years. To date, I've sprayed more than 2,000 people!

I have three beautiful children who light up my world, a film maker, an actress and an accountant. 

My seceret obession…all things BRAVO TV! There is not a housewives francise that I do not follow, and girl, don’t even get me started on Vanderpump right now!

My favorite tag-line.. “Be cool, don’t be like, all uncool!” 

When I was in high school I got pulled over by the police for “borrowing” my sisters Firebird  before I had my license, or even knew how to drive. Fun fact: I brought a couch cushion to sit on because I couldn’t reach the gas pedal.

I got my start in spray tanning in 2017. when I opened up Cheeky Glo Co, where I've since sprayed thousands of amazing, unique and beautiful bodies.

When I met Shonda and we realized there was some serious magic about the potential of doing something together. Now, here we are!

Some other fun facts: I went to an art school and grew up performing. I love to sing, but I promise not to serenade you during your tan! 

I am a skincare and makeup junkie! I got into the beauty industry through cosmetics. I went to a school known as the “Art of Makeup Academy” right out of high school.

I worked as an MUA specializing in bridal glam, and special effects body painting before transitioning to a full-time spray tan salon owner!
