I've been going to SKJ for years, and it's honestly the only place I'm comfortable getting spray…read moretans. They offer a level of quality and consistency with their work that is unmatched among other salons, and which really takes away the anxiety of getting a spray tan before a big event.
I did my first spray with Jenni two days before my college graduation, and I was so nervous I'd leave the salon streaky or orange, effectively ruining all the pictures I'd have to take at my ceremony. I'm really type A and a huge perfectionist about style/appearance, so it's always hard for me to find places I can trust to hold themselves to the same standard as I do. Fortunately for me, my spray came out PERFECTLY, and looked fantastic. Jenni was so helpful and sweet, and made me feel so comfortable. The tanning experience itself was quick and easy, and I was in and out in less than half an hour.
The day I got my first spray also happened to be one of the only days of the year that it was pouring rain in LA, so of course I managed to smudge several areas on my legs 20 minutes after I left the salon. I texted Jenni panicking, but she assured me the smudges were probably just the bronzing agent, not the actual tan itself, and that I'd probably be fine once I rinsed off in the morning. If not, she said I was welcome to come back to the salon the next day, and she would fix any problem areas or streaks I had, free of charge. This immediately put me at ease, and I was able to save myself from hours of anxiety as I waited for the tan to develop. The next day, the tan was in fact fine, just as Jenni had assured me, and it looked so flawless and natural. I still go back to look at pictures from graduation sometimes, just to reminisce on how good that tan looked :)
Now I go to SKJ any time I have a big event, premiere, or party I need to attend, and I'm always able to go in with the confidence that my tan will come out beautifully. All of the girls on the SKJ team are sweet, attentive, and talented, but if you are able to make a request, I'd recommend Jenni or Mackinlee.
Mackinlee did my most recent spray, and she made me feel so at ease during the entire experience. She took her time and applied the tan so precisely, and the final product looked amazing. After she was finished, she let me inspect myself in the mirror to make sure I was happy with every part of the tan, and offered to do a few extra coats on my face and hands (since those areas always lighten up quickly for me). She even texted me the next day to make sure my tan was looking great, and said I was welcome to stop by the salon if I needed any touch ups (of course I didn't, but it's so nice of them to offer the option). The tan lasted for longer than a week before it started lightening up, and even when it did, it faded naturally and subtly. No splotchiness, no looking like I have some sort of weird skin disease - it was perfect. Can't recommend her enough.
I'm so grateful for these girls for always making sure I look my best, no matter what the occasion. Definitely the best spray tan place in all of LA. Check it out - you won't regret it!
