I’ve been going to Kristen for my spray tans for a couple of years now and she continues to give the most consistent, personalized glow every single time. She’s incredibly knowledgeable about her products, takes the time to understand the look you want, and genuinely cares about the final results. My tans always look natural, even, and flawless! She’s also very accommodating and makes the entire experience comfortable and easy. I always leave feeling confident and glowing — highly recommend!

I’m a pal girly, I’m talking see-through. Kristen gives me the most natural look glow!! I love that she takes her time to blend out your glow so it doesn’t settle funky. She always checked in to see how it’s developed and looks for ways to ways to somehow make it even better the next time. She is an artist!

Afterglow Sunless Tan is my go-to for both personal tans and for so many of my wedding clients. Kristen and her team are incredible...professional, talented, and consistently deliver a beautiful, natural glow (never orange!). As a wedding planner, I confidently recommend them to brides, grooms, and mothers of the bride who want to look and feel amazing for the big day. Every experience is wonderful, and the results always make you feel so confident. Truly the best in the business! ✨

Afterglow was recommended to me several years ago and I have been a returning client since. Every major event in my life starts with Afterglow. Weddings , party's, baby and wedding showers any place that their will be lots of pictures. Kristen is friendly and has a way to make you feel comfortable. She has always taken my , questions and concerns seriously and given me honest answers. I have very sensitive skin and she has made recommendations to allow me to safely be able to tan. From my first visit I have felt as if I am spending time with a old friend.

I highly recommended Afterglow Sunless Tan! The owner, Kristen, was very knowledgeable and thorough, taking the time to explain how to prepare my skin, what to expect during the tan, and how to care for my skin afterward. My skin is absolutely glowing and I cannot wait to come back for my next appointment!

first of all - i would love to note that EVERY review here is 5 stars (how it should be) krissy & maddy deserve all the love. maddy (my BEST friend since kindergarten) is making her dreams come true, and i’m SO PROUD OF HER!!!🥹 every time i come back home, i never fail to see her for my lash lift - i don’t get them done where i live now because you won’t catch me betraying🙅🏻‍♀️ now although i’ve never gotten a spray tan (but every one that i see done are INCREDIBLE) i already KNOW krissy makes everyone feel so safe and special. this woman is like a second mother to me, she watched us grow up to the people we are now - and i LOVE HER SO MUCH. just based off of how she treated me my whole life, i know good and well everyone else that passes by her, feels the same way. two amazing women i will forever be so grateful for - GET THOSE APPOINTMENTS BOOKED WITH THEM NOWWWW‼️‼️

I’ve not only had an amazing spray tan that was the perfect shade for me, but I’ve also been getting my lash extensions done by Madison and they are flawless and exactly what I asked for every time. Both of the professionals who work here are incredibly professional, educated, and kind. I always feel so comfortable and well taken care of. I will absolutely continue to support them and keep coming back. ❤️

Kristen is amazing! She provides the Rolls Royce of spray tans. She has nailed every minor detail and has taken time out of her day to accommodate all of the questions I have had for her. This is really important to someone who was newer to spray tans and wanted to understand the artistry and what is required to get the full benefits & longevity of the tan. Incredibly happy to have her involved in the local beauty industry!

Best spray tan I’ve ever had! The space is beautiful, clean and inviting. I’m extremely pale, and Kristen took the time to go over exactly what look I wanted to achieve. Her attention to detail is unmatched! Zero patchiness around drier areas like my elbows, ankles etc. She even sent me a follow up text the next day to check in on my tan development. Highly highly recommend!

Hands down the best spray tan experience I have ever had. Kristen made me feel so comfortable and really took her time to achieve my goal. I’m currently 8 months pregnant and had my maternity photos coming up, I wanted something natural and not too obvious. She did exactly what I asked and explained the process every step of the way.

Tap the link in bio to join.
Because self care isn't extra. It's a whole vibe.
If your spray tan has ever faded patchy… it’s usually not the tan.
It’s what’s happening with your skin underneath. 
I always say your tan will only be as good as your skin and I truly mean that.

The most common reasons:

dry skin 

leftover product before application 

improper prep and aftercare (or not at all)

certain products breaking it down unevenly

Your tan can only develop as evenly as your skin is prepared.

That’s why prep + aftercare matters just as much as the tan itself.
Skin that’s prepped and taken care of correctly = smooth, even, natural fade.

This is why every tan at Afterglow is paired with prep + aftercare guidance. We are here to help ensure you the best results.
