L.A. Tan

I have nothing but great things to say about this location. Every time I have been in there I have had nothing but excellent service. Each girl behind the counter is kind and helpful. The place is very clean and they answer any questions you may have honestly (I am super OCD when it comes to cleanliness). They don’t pressure you into buying things which is a huge pet peeve of mine so it’s nice to be treated so well instead of having to endure a sales pitch. They have a ton of beds in varying levels of intensity. Their spray tans are great too and they have the clear coat so you don’t have the orange mess. Tons of lotions to choose from and they are always having a promotion so you rarely pay full price for tanning supplies. I’m not sure how anyone would have anything bad to say about this location!

I came in for a free spray tan that weekend. It looked like my membership was terminated but the girl that was upfront was so helpful she explained everything to me. How if I sign up for a new one it would give me such and such benefits. She was so helpful and very nice. I couldn’t be any happier and would definitely be back!

I am embarrassed to even be writing this review because I swore off tanning beds forever 5+ years ago in college when I decided I could no longer ignore their harmful UV rays. Hey I was young and ignorant. But I was trying to look good for my own wedding and I was desperate. I tan easily and many many long bike rides this past summer left some sweet tan lines on my back. I still had tan lines in March from the previous summer so I knew there was no way they were going to fade in time for a November wedding.
So I gave in and bought a package at LA Tan. I purchased the Vacation Package which was like 7 tans for around $ 40 (I can’t remember exactly) and I got a variety of levels. In hindsight, I might have been better off going with just buying singular tans because I didn’t even use all 7.
I never knew how long to go in the different level beds and relied on the suggestions from the staff. Some people were better than others at this. I only got a slight burn once so that is good. Some of the beds seemed a little old at this location but everything was clean. Plus I never had to wait for a bed because they had plenty available.
Overall, I am glad I tanned because I did look good. I thought the price was okay, but honestly I think I will go back on an indefinite tanning bed hiatus.

I’ve only been to this location once and it was a horrible experience! They were overly pushy with selling lotions which I understand is part of their job but when they kept asking me to buy lotions after I said no the first time was very annoying. The equipment seemed kind of old, and the bed I was in made a lot of creaking noises and it sounded like it was going to blow up! I will not return.

I had a formal event coming up and wanted some color, plus I got a coupon in the mail for «one week free trial,» so off I went to LA Tan.
Day 1: When I arrived I found out that in reality the one week free trial coupon is basically just a lie to get people in the door and what they actually offer is 4 tans for $ 4. Plus a tiny $ 6 packet of lotion. Plus $ 1 for eye shades (that I couldn’t even use bc I ended up going in a standing bed, holding a towel over my eyes…). But 4 for $ 4 isn’t a bad deal, so fine.
I told the girl that I don’t burn easily and I wanted to go in the level 3 or 4 bed for the maximum of 10 minutes. She was trying to be helpful, but she talked me down into a level 2 bed, and then tried to talk me into going for less than 10 minutes. After my first tan, there ended up being no noticeable difference.
Day 2: I wanted to see some bronze! But the girl had freaked me out about how hot the level 4 bed is, so I decided to play it safe with level three. 10 minutes. Slight change, but even using a sticker it was hard to see much of a difference, immediately or later.
Day 3: Ok, give me the hottest bed for the longest time already! And there ya go! Looked like I spent a day at the beach. (I know people who work there will probably argue that I had to build a base tan first, but my skin tans easily, and when I’ve gone to other locations in the past I saw immediate results the first time…)
Day 4: Excited about finally seeing some color. But when I went the girl told me my trial was expired. but she eventually decided to let me use the the last one «as a courtesy.» Looking forward to repeating the results from last time, I went in to level 4 for 10 minutes, and… nothing.
Maybe the whole misleading advertisement just put a bad taste in my mouth from the start, bc if they put it out there they should honor it.
But I would care less about that if there was actually a noticeable difference after 4 times tanning.
Overall the trial was not convincing.

I really like L. A Tan. I had signed up for one of their monthly packages and the staff is always friendly. The beds are really nice but I wish the start button was on the bed of the level one beds and not against the wall, besides that, great place! Love the lotions that they sell and the level 2 beds!

horrible horrible, owner, i cancelled twice due to pregnancy, and 3 months later i’m still being charged they owe me over $ 200.00 and he’s telling me & my sister we both didn’t cancel. he knew he was in the wrong so he offered me (3) months of free tanning, even after i said i was pregnant, then he had the audocoty to tell me to tan after i deliver in 7 months, then he hung up on me and took the phone off the hook and left. very very very unprofessional!!! just out to take peoples money!!!
