There’s more than sweets hiding in my cauldron 👀🧙‍♀️

You know Halloween is my favourite, so of course I’m bringing a little treat to the tan room!

Come for your tan during Halloween week and pick a sweet from the cauldron. Three lucky picks come with a voucher for £3 off a November tan 🎃

A sweet for everyone. A little extra for three of you 🖤

Got Halloween plans? Message me your date and let’s get your tan booked.

Winning vouchers must be used by 30 November 2026.

Your tan appointment is only part of the job 👀

The prep before and the care afterwards matter too.

Gently exfoliate beforehand, arrive with clean, product-free skin and keep up with your aftercare once you’ve rinsed.

Need moisturiser to take home? I stock Sienna X in the studio. Ask me at your appointment 🤎

The outfit’s planned. Is the tan? 👀

Whether it’s dinner out, a birthday celebration, or a Halloween party, you don’t need a summer holiday or a Wedding in the diary to book a spray tan.

Tell me your plans, and I’ll help you choose the perfect Sienna X tan.

October appointments are available in Hedge End. Message me your date 🤎

Want a spray tan but the thought of getting undressed in front of someone puts you off?

Let’s clear this one up: you don’t have to take everything off!

You can keep your knickers on, wear a bra or go topless. Whatever makes you comfortable. We just need to bear in mind where your tan lines will be.

And please don’t feel you need to apologise for your body. In 13 years of tanning, I’ve seen plenty of b***s, bums and tummies. Yours doesn’t need an explanation 🤎

If this is the bit that’s been stopping you from booking, you’re welcome to message me privately. No awkward questions, no pressure.

Apparently “I’m going as a ghost” is a valid excuse. The Sanderson sisters are still judging you. 😂🧙‍♀️

For everyone else… let’s get your tan booked before you start threatening the neighbours’ children for sweets. 🎃

Message me your Halloween plans and I’ll help you choose your appointment. ✨

A good spray tan isn’t a competition to see how dark you can go.

Some clients want a subtle bit of colour. Others love a deeper tan. Neither is wrong, but choosing whatever your friend has isn’t always the answer.

Tell me what you like, what you don’t and what you’re having your tan for. You don’t need to understand all the different solutions. That’s my job 😊

After 13 years of spray tanning, I’m still far more interested in getting your colour right than getting you as dark as possible.

Got something in the diary this October? Message me your date and I’ll help you get booked in 🤎

SISTERS… I’M BACK! 🧙‍♀️😂

Of course I was going to make my return on the 1st October. Halloween is my favourite season, and Winifred felt like the appropriate spokesperson 🤣

I needed a few weeks away from posting. Running a business alongside a full-time job takes a lot, and sometimes you just need to put the phone down.

Thank you to everyone who’s booked, messaged and kept me busy while I’ve been quiet ❤️

Now… who’s got something in the diary worth getting a tan for? Autumn weddings, nights out, Halloween plans, send me your date and we’ll get you booked in 🤎

13 YEARS!! 🥂

Today marks 13 years since I got this certificate and officially became a qualified spray tan artist.

And I’m still bloody doing it 😂

What started with me learning how to spray a body without making a complete tit of myself has somehow turned into South Tan by Sue, hundreds and hundreds of tans, brides, proms, regulars who’ve been coming to me for years, TWO Spray Tan Artist of the Year wins 🏆🏆 and a business I’m genuinely really proud of.

I’ve seen every tanning trend come and go, tried more solutions than I care to remember and learnt a LOT in 13 years.

But one thing hasn’t changed…

I still get a ridiculous amount of satisfaction when someone messages me after their tan and goes “OH I LOVE IT!” 😂❤️

13 years down.

No plans to put the spray gun away yet. 😏🥂

I’m taking a little break from social media 🤎

Running a small business alongside a full-time job can sometimes feel like a lot. There’s always something to think about, something to post, content to create and the pressure of trying to stay visible.

Lately, I’ve realised that social media has started to take more from me than I’d like it to. I’m also finding the constant stream of negativity and the awful things happening in the world quite overwhelming, and I think my mind just needs a little peace and quiet from it all.

So, for my own mental health, I’m giving myself permission to step away from social media for a while.

South Tan by Sue is absolutely NOT going anywhere! 😂 I’ll still be in my little studio, doing what I love and tanning all my lovely clients as normal.

You can still message me with any questions or booking requests, and online booking will remain open through my website as usual.

I know taking a break probably won’t do my algorithm any favours, but right now, that feels like a very small price to pay for feeling a little more like myself again.

I want my clients to get the best, happiest and most genuine version of me. Sometimes, looking after yourself means recognising when you need to take a step back and switch off for a while.

So that’s what I’m doing 🤍

I’ll be back soonish x
