Owner & Artist
Meet Taylor — every session, her hands
Sunkiss Studios began the way most things worth having do: with someone who refused to accept "good enough." Taylor had seen what booths and one-size-fits-all solutions leave behind — orange undertones, streaked ankles, color that never quite belonged to the person wearing it. So she built the opposite: a private Falls Church studio where every tan starts with a conversation and ends with a color blended for exactly one person. You.
As an owner-operated studio, there is no rotating staff and no machine doing the work. Taylor personally consults, blends, and sprays every session — which is how a small home studio in Falls Church earned a perfect 5.0 across 94 Google reviews. Clients drive in from Arlington, Tysons, McLean, and DC because the difference between a spray tan and a custom spray tan is visible from across the room.
What makes a spray tan custom?
A custom spray tan is blended and applied by hand for one specific person. At Sunkiss Studios, every session starts with a consultation: your undertone, your natural depth of color, your event, and your timeline. Taylor then mixes a custom-blend formula, preps your skin with a pH-balancing spray, and airbrushes the solution by hand — adjusting depth section by section in a way no booth can. A finishing powder locks the result in place.
01
Consultation
Undertone, skin type, event, and how deep you want to go — decided together before a drop of solution is mixed.
02
Custom blend
Your formula is blended on the spot — violet, green, or neutral base matched to your undertone so the color reads bronze, never orange.
03
pH prep
A pH-balancing prep spray sets your skin up to take color evenly — the quiet step that separates flawless from patchy.
04
Hand application
Sprayed by an artist, contoured where you want it, finished with a setting powder. Booths spray everyone the same; Taylor doesn't.
Can a spray tan be matched to any skin tone?
Yes — when it's blended by hand. Taylor custom-mixes for every complexion, from fair skin that wants a sun-kissed warmth to deep skin tones that want richness, glow, and evenness rather than a shade change. Because the formula is built per client, the result enhances the skin you have instead of masking it. See the range for yourself in our before & after gallery.
It's also why brides, competitors, and camera-facing professionals book here — an artist can build color for the lighting you'll actually be standing in. Browse the full menu of sessions on our services page.
