"Emily goes above and beyond for every one of her clients. I’ve been going to her for over a year now and is the only person I trust with my tans. She makes you feel so comfortable and confident from the second you walk in that door until the second you leave. Not only is the tan so high quality and lasts forever, but you’re getting a top of the line experience too. Regardless of where you live in the Denver area, I promise you the drive to golden hour in lohi is worth it. Emily is absolutely amazing - first of all she is hilarious, but most importantly, she does incredible spray tans. I was very hesitant to get a spray tan, but Emily talked me through it all and made me so comfortable. Best spray tan ever. Truly. It was the perfect shade and was not splotchy at all. I loved it so much that I used Emily for my wedding, and now I use her for all my big events! I can’t recommend her enough. I look forward to going to each appointment and leave feeling so confident! (Photos of wedding with spray tan for reference)"
"Absolutely loved this place!! I can’t remember who did my tan, but she was the sweetest & made me feel so comfortable. The tan looked so natural & lasted so long! I went on my bachelorette party to tulum, so there was a lot of sweating (it was so humid & hot) & swimming & the tan lasted the entire time + as it started to fade didn’t fade in an uneven way. Also, in my opinion doesn’t smell as bad as other spray tans I’ve had! Will def use them for my wedding! If you’re looking for an elite, naturally beautiful, long lasting spray tan, absolutely look no further! Emily and her team are amazing. The studio is great, the experience is always top notch, the staff is so personable and comforting, not to mention the perfect tan that you’ll walk out with. Definitely recommend Golden Hour for all your bronzing needs in Denver!!!!"

"Alrighty folks. If you're looking for any of the following, stop searching, look no further because golden hour denver is where it is at: glorious custom airbrush tan, confidence boost, new friends. Emily is ah-mazing. Just had my second tan and now I'm booked out with Emily for the rest of the summer (probably the rest of time if I'm being honest). It's reasonably priced for a single occasion or for the healthy tanning lifestyle. golden hour also has super convenient appointment times later in the evening (after 7pm!!) so you can just go to bed without blowing it by accidentally spilling your starbuxx frozen beverage on your hot as sin new spray tan that your amazing new friend Emily did for you. The shop is WAY CUTE and in a primo location. One thing to note: stairs here! Contact the shop ahead of time if that might be an issue for you. Anyway, stop thinking about it. BOOK NOW! 🔥"

MEET THE TEAM

emily turner - owner & founder

my chicago accent tends to speak for itself, especially when i’m talking a million miles a minute while spray tanning. when i moved to denver in 2018, i was desperate for a good spray tan studio, but i quickly realized i was looking for more than just a great spray tan. i was looking for the personal connection that should come with a spray tan (one of the most vulnerable beauty services out there). my favorite part of getting spray tans has always been giggling and gossiping like i just spent 20 minutes hanging out with my best friend who i haven’t seen in years.

i opened golden hour denver with the intention that every spray tan is more than just a tan. it starts with extensively trained artists and expert service. we combine that with top of the line products, continual education, and the ability to make you feel comfortable taking off your clothes in front of a (sometimes) total stranger. every appointment at golden hour has one goal in mind:

we bring your inner glow to the surface.
