Built Different—for a Reason

Comprehensive Curriculum

Each course is built on science-backed methods and real-world experience, giving you the technical skills and confidence needed to succeed in the sunless tanning industry.

Business-Building Focus

We don’t just teach you how to spray—we teach you how to grow. From pricing & policies to branding & marketing, you’ll learn what it takes to build a thriving sunless business.

Ongoing Support & Mentorship

Your training doesn’t end at certification. Graduates receive continued mentorship, business guidance, and access to exclusive alumni resources and support tools.

 Proprietary Formulas

Train with a brand that puts skin first. Our formulas are made with naturally derived, ethically sourced ingredients for results that are as healthy as they are beautiful.

Big Earning Potential, Minimal Startup Costs

Spray tanning offers some of the highest profit margins in the beauty industry, with service costs as low as $25 and average pricing ranging from $30 to $75 per tan. Startup expenses are minimal, meaning you can begin earning quickly without a huge investment. Whether you’re going mobile or setting up in a salon, spray tanning is a smart way to build a business with low overhead and strong return.

Glow Where the Demand Is Growing

As sun safety awareness grows, more people are turning to sunless tanning as their go-to glow. From weddings and vacations to regular self-care, spray tans are in demand all year long. This makes it an ideal add-on for beauty pros or a standalone business with a steady stream of loyal clients.

Be your own boss, work the hours that suit your life, and build a business that supports your personal goals—not the other way around. Spray tanning offers the flexibility while still creating real income and independence.

“I started spray tanning to break the mold of what is beautiful. I’m a mom, I’ve loved and hated my body. I’m raising two girls and I want them to grow up seeing real women love themselves for who they are. My tan tent is a space women can feel comfortable and themselves. I’ve loved every moment of it."”

This training gave me everything I needed to feel confident starting my spray tan business. The course was easy to follow and incredibly thorough—worth every penny!

JessicaEsthetician & Makeup Artist

I wasn’t sure if I could learn this online, but I was amazed by how much I gained from the course! The videos, downloads, and step-by-step breakdowns made it simple. I added spray tanning to my business a week after finishing!

ErickaCosmetology Student

The in-person class was amazing. My instructor was so knowledgeable and supportive, and I walked away feeling 100% ready to take clients. Highly recommend to anyone serious about sunless tanning!

SamanthaSpray Tan Artist

I’ve taken other online spray tan courses, but none compared to this one. You can tell it's created by pros who care about your success and i really appreciated the fact that the Sjolie team is willing to help and guide you even after your time during the course is finished. The support afterwards has been beyond incredible.

In the beginning, I was a little skeptical to make such an investment. But this course blew me away, i learned so much and definitely got more of a 1 on 1 training than i thought i would. I really enjoyed the small (in person) class size and it gave me the opportunity to ask questions and revisit things that i wasn't grasping right away. Christie the trainer that day, was so patient and kind!

MichelleEsthetician

I was so excited to get started after I finished this class. I immediately felt more confident in my hands on application and called up a few friends to practice!
