Brazil Bronze Tanning Salon NYC | Spray Tan NYC

I first discovered BRAZIL BRONZE SOHO by accident. I was in school and I saw a friend I hadn’t seen over the long weekend. When I saw her she had a glowy fresh tan. I asked her immediately whether she flew to Florida or LA over the weekend. She shook her head and smiled. “Spray tan” she said. No way! Her tan was way too authentic to be a spray tan. She told me the name of the place. Graduation was around the corner, so I booked my appointment.

When I arrived, I was nervous. I had only gotten a spray tan once before, and I came out looking like an Oompa Loompa and was constantly compared to the color of an orange by my friends for 2 weeks. And any other friend that had gotten a spray tan, (beside the one that recommended this place) LOOKED like they got a spray tan.

I went in and the receptionist greeted me with a smile. I told her my name and she nodded and told me to have a seat for a few minutes. She then brought water over to me— by the time I finished my cup they called me in.

The young woman showed me the color chart and asked me how dark I wanted to go. I have fair skin and I didn’t just come back from a week on a tropical island, so I figured the lightest one would be perfect. She agreed. I changed out of my clothes and into a
cloth thong (there’s an option to go completely nude, but I wanted to have a tan line!) She came in and explained the process to me. I felt very comfortable and understood everything that was going on. Any question I had was answered without hesitation. The spray tanning part took 10 minutes (max) and the drying part in the next room over took 10 minutes. My tan was obvious and I was excited!

The tan takes a few hours to fully develop, so I wasn’t as dark as I hoped to be when I left (albeit I was I was no longer a see-through ghost!)

They recommend you come in what you’re going to wear to sleep, and they also recommend to not shower or sweat for 12 hours. I followed both of those rules! When I woke up I was DARK. Like very dark. I was told that when I shower, there will be brown dripping off of me and when I get out it will reveal my real tan. Boy was I HAPPY. I didn’t look like a generic spray tan! I looked REAL TAN!!! I almost couldn’t believe how real it looked. Even my friends who I told I was getting a spray tan to were shocked when they saw me on graduation day.

BRAZIL BRONZE SOHO changed my perception of what a spray tan should look like. Once you go there, there’s no going anywhere else!!! Get the LA tan without booking a flight!

Bear spray tan in NYC! I have been a loyal client for years - Bridget the owner is amazing and offers affordable packages! I love that it is on a quieter street right in SoHo, I am in and out in 15 minutes. I normally go very very dark and the tan is flawless and even always. NEVER orange! My favorite is the powder, no weird smell and I am able to walk home from the salon without feeling sticky. I highly recommend over other spray tan salons in the city - trust me!!

Aura is amazing! She gave me one of the best spray tans I’ve ever had. Completely even, natural-looking, and absolutely streak-free. The color came out perfect, and she made the whole experience so easy and comfortable. Highly recommend Aura at Brazil Bronze!
