What Avalon Students Are Saying
“From start to finish, Alietha was incredibly caring and authentic. Her hands-on approach really gave the two day experience a personal touch. She went above and beyond to ensure I had several opportunities to practice and provided multiple models, and guidance throughout the process…The value you get from this course is phenomenal! Not only does she provide exceptional training, but she also includes an amazing array of quality goodies that make your investment worthwhile.”
Terri F.
“I cannot recommend spray tan training by Alietha highly enough! As someone with zero professional experience in spray tanning beyond being a client myself, I was initially unsure of what to expect. However, Alietha completely exceeded my expectations... Alietha shared a wealth of knowledge about the business, customer service and technique. I received hands-on experience by spraying models under her guidance, which is not something you can get from an online course. Overall, my experience with Alietha was extremely positive. If you're looking to enter the world of spray tanning or expand your skills, I recommend Alietha at Avalon Sunless Beauty!”
Emily B.
“As a former & current client of Alietha, I knew I wanted to train with her when I planned on re-launching my spray tan business. Alietha’s training course was thorough and prepared me to be successful for re-launch. She has been an ear to bounce ideas off of and I continue to use her as a knowledgeable resource. If I am unable to accommodate a clients preferred appointment time, she is the first person I refer my personal clients to. She comes highly recommended by me for tanning & training!”
Hailey W.
“I had the privilege and opportunity to get Spray Tan Training from Alietha of Avalon Sunless Beauty. She is a true expert in her field. I gained so much knowledge, technique, business tips, customer care, product knowledge, everything you need to know about becoming a Spray Tan Artist, and starting your own business from A-Z. I walked away feeling, equipped, inspired, and confident in my abilities, and pursuing my Spray Tan business. Highly recommend Alietha, and her training course. It was invaluable, and she makes it fun. Alietha is personable, down-to-earth, patient and professional. Thank you for a great online course.”
