Frequently Asked Questions

A tanning consultant advises clients on products, techniques, and skin prep. In this remote role you assess skin tone and tanning goals over video, recommend products and shades, explain prep, application, and aftercare, troubleshoot streaks or uneven fading, answer questions by email and live chat, and follow up after sessions.

Many people start as estheticians, beauty advisors, salon receptionists, or spray tan artists and build product knowledge on the job. Practicing shade selection on different skin tones helps a lot. This job prefers prior experience as a tanning specialist, esthetician, beauty advisor, or skincare consultant, and offers product training with leading beauty brands.

The annual salary for this fully remote role is $43,840. The package also lists performance-based incentives, paid vacation and personal time, health and wellness resources, professional development support, and complimentary self-tanning products, so total value goes beyond the base pay.

Yes, if the role is consultation-based. Spray and airbrush tanning need a salon or mobile setup, but product advice, technique coaching, and troubleshooting work well over video. This job is fully remote with flexible scheduling, and you serve clients across time zones using virtual consultation and booking tools.

Career guides highlight customer service, active listening, product knowledge, and sales skills. This posting adds shade matching across diverse skin tones, clear explanations of application steps, virtual consultation skills, digital communication, CRM and booking system familiarity, and strong relationship building with repeat clients.

Often none is formally required, and many employers train on the job. According to RoleCatcher, optional certifications include courses from the National Tanning Training Institute and Smart Tan. This remote role names no required certificate; it prefers experience as a tanning specialist, esthetician, beauty advisor, or skincare consultant.

Skincare guides suggest exfoliating for a few days beforehand, shaving the day before rather than right before, and applying a little moisturizer to dry spots like ankles, knees, and elbows so they do not turn blotchy. In this role you coach clients through these preparation steps during each consultation.

Check the color after several hours, since a tan takes time to develop. Light streaks can be buffed with a wet facecloth or a gentle exfoliant, and patchy spots can be blended with a little extra product applied with a mitt. Troubleshooting streaks and uneven fades is a core duty of this job.

Salon-based tanning consultants often work evenings, weekends, and busy summer periods. This remote position instead offers flexible scheduling designed to serve clients across time zones, within a collaborative virtual team, so you can shape your week around consultation demand.
