Sun Studio LA

This place is THE BEST! Great staff, helpful and friendly! Not pushy to sell and very thorough in explaining options. The space is clean and well taken care of. Also, they manage to keep the prices extremely reasonable. I highly recommend Sun Studio LA!

Hailey is spectacular at spray tanning. I have become addicted to looking tan without having to be in the Sun. She worked with the colors to get just the right blend for me and is really experienced with getting the most natural looking results.

I got a custom airbrush last week and it was one of the best I’ve ever had. I usually just come in for a quick versa spray, but opted for the airbrush in preparation for vacation. They custom mix your color and will contour problem areas as desired. The staff is always so friendly and professional so I should have known it would carry over into the airbrush experience. This place rocks.

Their prices and beds are great! I shopped around for awhile, (and I have worked in the tanning industry so I know what I’m looking for!) and this salon has the most reasonable prices with very good beds. I have encountered at least 3 or 4 different employees and every one of them was friendly and polite.
There is free parking! Right across from them is a good nail place. Plus, there is a Starbucks and a great juice spot right downstairs. It’s a nice location; you won’t feel like going tanning will be a chore when you can also get your nails done or grab a coffee there.
I literally have zero complaints. Just a heads up though — getting in and out of the Lincoln and Maxella area is a bit of a pain because of traffic. But it’s definitely not bad enough for me to stop going!

Staff was nice today, place is clean, spray tan works but you have to wait too long to take it off. Otherwise it’s my second time buying a package there. It’s convenient and does the trick!

Sun Studio is a great find. The staff is welcoming and friendly and they know my name. I searched for a spot that was local and comfortable. I find Sun Studio to be my place to de-​stress. I get my time to tan and relax and then I am on my way. I highly recommend it!

Great experience! Myself and my girlfriend came in to «tan» for an event we will be attending. Both Ashton and Mary were awesome… So we’re the prices. We will definitely be back to tan, and would recommend Sun Studio to everyone.

The girls there used to be cool. Now they hired a bunch of high pressure sales girls. Not cool!
I was buying a spray tan and after a couple mishaps with the machine cleaning before I got out of the room was not going to buy 10 if they can’t get the machine right. And it was breaking down a lot. So I decided to fork over the $ 35 for 1 spray tan.
Best part! This is what the girl said to me.
«Would you like to buy a package. (Pulls out chart) it way cheaper to buy a package and I want to save you money»
Haha. So after I decline she says …
«Well our prices are going up… Way up. So just keep that in mind «
Ok lady. If your prices are going way up from $ 35 for a spray tan. I’ll go somewhere else. Preferably a place that doesn’t spray water on me after a spray tan in a broken down 10 year old machine.
Ok. Bye bye.

The ladies at Sun Sudio LA’s Marina del Rey location are amazing. They go above and beyond to provide me with excellent customer service every time I stop by. Their prices are competitive, and the staff is knowledgeable and accommodating. I brought my mom in last week, and she even bought a package. I would highly recommend Sun Studio!

This place is amazing. I mostly went to the West LA location but I have visited all 3 locations and they’re all equally awesome. The quality is awesome and the price are so worth it. Denifelty a good value.

Called the MDR location as the services section indicated a $ 25 spray tan. I spoke with Mary who was extremely professional and helpful. Unfortunately, the prices noted were for new customers. However, because she went out of her way to assist me, she actually found a spray tan still available on my account. I must have purchased a package and forgot about the remaining credit. Mary also explained another way I could upgrade using an existing credit for a tanning bed which I never use. Again, I am impressed by the level of professionalism and customer service with this company. Thank you, Mary for a great experience!

Awesome prices and Ashley is the BEST EVER! When I spray tan with her, I never actually look spray tanned. She is friendly and soo great at what she does. Love this place!

Turned up to be told the Unilocal offer is no longer valid due to issues with Unilocal users and offered no alternative plus credit card machine wasn’t working so ended up walking out and going elsewhere. Very unprofessional

When a business has great customer service and friendly people working there, even if the product is not good you will not leave mad. But that is not the situation here because their product is really good and they have the great customer service I’m talking about. The girls who work at the front desk when you enter are so friendly and sweet and they seem genuine which is nice. A couple times I was asking about the different tans and the girl was very knowledgeable and helpful. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because a couple times when I was in there (the tanning spray both thing) I could not figure out how to start it. I was looking at the pictures that explain it but it did not look like the equipment in front of me. Anyhow, nobody came by to ask how everything was or if I have any questions and you could hear that I was in there and it was not turned on for a while. I finally figured it out but it would have nice if someone would have come around sooner to help me. It’s also clean and they have blow dryers and wipes to clean your face and all that good stuff to clean you up. It’s the really friendly staff here that leaves a great impression with me and makes me smile which makes my fresh tan look even better!

I had a gift certificate for this place. AMAZING spray tan. Love how it lasted so long, and looked so natural. Lindsay sprayed me for my wedding, and glad that I got it done several days ahead of the wedding, so it wouldn’t bleed onto my dress. Since it was my first time, I had no idea the level of customer service to expect. You have a brief consultation about coverage, and how dark you want to get, and she custom blends your colors. It didn’t smell like fake tan lotion at all. (pleasantly surprised) After you are all sprayed, she dusts your skin with powder to set the spray. I wore dark clothes that day, and didn’t worry about it rubbing onto my clothes. You may consider this…
I’m glad I did this. SUPER FOR SPECIAL OCCASIONS, OR FOR A PERSONAL PICK ME UP… :)

Business shows it opens at 9am until 10pm M-​F, which is not the case. They operate on their own terms which is super annoying for anyone who drives through the terrible Lincoln blvd. traffic to this MDR location. I arrived at 9:57am to use a pre-​paid package on Tuesday morning and no one is here & the business is closed. Disappointing & will likely not be coming back or referring other customers.

That is quite a review that other poster left about them ripping her off. This place is your typical overpriced salon that employs a front desk simultaneously ill-​informed and cheerful. Upon being asked a bed’s total power, one responded with: «power is not important» when tanning. I explained to her that bulbs are measured according to their power. Thats what this little mark that says 160 Watts means.
I’ve been to about 8 salons from Westwood to Venice over the course of 10 years. This salon is everything bad I encountered wrapped into 1… and then the price is jacked up 400%. Oh, and I’m a pretty fair skinned guy, and yet their bed gave me nil color, despite my making them give me the full time. Bulbs appeared dim and old.

I Always have a pleasant experience with the staff and it’s very clean with lots of options.

Almost 3 years ago, I’ve signed up with Sun Studio LA in Marina del Rey. I don’t know what I was thinking, giving that I don’t tan. But I tried it, decided it wasn’t for me, went in and cancelled (as they stated that any cancelation had to be made in person) and forgot about it.
Almost THREE years later I wonder why one of my credit cards is being paid off slower than expected. I had transferred balances a few years ago, set up auto-​pay and never used the card again. I go into my account and guess what? These douche canoes had charged me for another 2 ½ years after my cancelation!
So I’ve called them up, asked if they had me in their system. The girl who answered the phone told me that they did. I’ve asked her if there was a cancelation for me in there too. She confirmed that as well. I asked her to look at the date of the cancelation; and that is when she told me the manager needs to call me back.
Manager calls me back the next day, apologizes profusely, and says she will get back to me by the end of the day. I’ve never heard back. They now claim they never received my cancelation and produced by old contract.
They must have erased my cancelation from the system and I now have no proof that they ripped me off. What a bunch of unethical asshats. I hope karma bites them in the ass. Meanwhile, I am going to spread the word on how awful they’ve treated me. Liars and greedy asses make me sad. And I work in credit card fraud prevention.

Best air brushed spray tan in town — for sure! I love this place. I never ever look orange, just evenly browned and beautiful.
