Spray Tans for Men: The Confident Glow Without the Sun Damage
For too long, glowing skin has been marketed as a “women-only” thing. But the truth? Spray tans aren’t about gender — they’re about confidence, good grooming, and healthy skin. More men than ever are booking professional spray tans for weddings, events, holidays and even everyday maintenance.
At Tanzola, we see the shift firsthand. Here’s everything you need to know about spray tans for men — and why they’re one of the most underrated grooming secrets out there.
Why men are getting spray tans
1. Instant confidence
A tan evens skin tone, reduces redness, and defines muscle tone — perfect if you’re stepping into a suit, boardshorts, or the gym. It’s not about vanity, it’s about looking like you just got back from a week in Byron (without the UV damage).
2. Safer than the sun
Spray tanning eliminates the need for harmful UV exposure that can cause premature ageing and skin cancer. At Tanzola, we’re passionate about skin education and sun safety, so every glow we deliver comes with peace of mind.
3. Events, weddings & photos
From grooms and groomsmen to fitness competitors and corporate professionals, a light, natural spray tan enhances your features and photographs beautifully.
What to expect during your appointment
Your tanner will guide you through every step. You’ll be offered disposable underwear or can wear your own shorts, depending on your comfort level. Our team uses a fine-mist technique that creates even, streak-free colour — no orange, no smell, no drama.
You’ll also receive pre- and post-tan guidance to make sure your result lasts up to 7–10 days.
The most popular men’s spray tan shades
Most men prefer:
-
Medium depth for a subtle, natural tone
-
Olive-based solutions to neutralise redness
-
Gradual build options for maintenance tans
Our custom solutions can be adjusted based on your skin tone, body hair, and desired depth of colour — so you never walk out looking “done.”
Spray tan prep tips for men
-
Exfoliate and shave 24 hours before your appointment.
-
Skip deodorant, cologne, or moisturiser on the day — they can block the tan.
-
Bring loose, dark clothing to change into post-tan.
-
Avoid water and sweat for at least 4–6 hours while it develops.
