I currently charge $40 - $45 per spray session and include everything. I currently do not charge extra for darker solutions (Which do cost me more to buy) however, I am now rethinking my cost and wonder if I should change my pricing structure.

I Include:
- disposible thong
- nipple petals
- foot covers
- hair cap
- a wrap, so they dont have to stand there naked while I prep their skin.
- Sluff towlette

I dont charge extra for clients who want extra solution on their legs or ask for darker solutions (12%). Darker solutions cost me more.

I am curious to find out what everyone charges, What do you include?

I am in California, Other salons charge $55.00 and dont include anything other than the solution. I understand the economy is tough and dont want clients to feel robbed but at the same time, I want to be sure I am not giving away too much.

Wow Eileen, you provide lots! Do you have your items placed in each room?

I'd be worried they would screw up their tan with baby wipes, deodorant and perfume. People do weird things with stuff like that when left on their own.

I charge $40 and provide the following:

nose filters and/or face mask
disposable bottoms
hair cap
jewelry cleaner

Does not matter how dark they want to be.

I charge $35 for students and teachers $40 for everyone else. I have this one client who I should be charging $80 because I use about 4oz of solution on her. Never fails every time I think I am done, she says "oh can you spray a little more here and a little more there." She is a spray tan addict. She gets a full body spray twice a week and she generally will come in between visits for a face spray. I have seriously thought about charging her more, but I already make good money off of her.

I am in the room with them and give them instructions. :) This is the cosmetic tan room only. Though I provide a lot in our other rooms as well.
