Amazing Tans

I always like coming into this salon because the front desk girls are always so friendly and helpful when it came to picking a tanning package. Ive never had problems with the cleanliness of the salon or the service. I don’t know why people have given this salon bad reviews. I guess some people just like to complain.

I started a one year agreement with Amazing Tans a few months ago without ever actually tanning at the salon, what a mistake. I figured one tanning salon is a lot like the rest. WHOA: What a joke. Each time I went the floors were filthy – hair, dirt, gum, and stickers all over the place. Lotion prints on the top side of the beds. It was gross. I sent a letter to corporate, with no response the the filth piling up, I tried to cancel. They won’t let me cancel even if I am unsatisfied with the cleanliness of the salon. Who wants to get naked in a dirty bed? Not me. I am stuck paying them for the next 9 months but I will never go back!
PS. the managers excuse for the dirty floors for months was bc their mop broke. (There is a KMART next door)

I reviewed the Amazing Tans on Micron Ave, and I am repeating a bit of the general Amazing Tans review here. Specific review of this location’s equipment and staff is also included.
In my experience, most tanning joints are basically the same. All that varies is the age of the equipment and the staff. I have had a «VIP Membership» at Amazing Tans for about a year now. By the way, «VIP» is just a pretentious way of saying you have dues automatically withdrawn each month for the privilage of unlimited tanning at all the Amazing Tans locations. I think even if you buy individual tans that they can be used any Amazing Tans location, but if you go this route, you should verify this.
This particular Amazing Tans location has pretty average equipment. I have tried every level of bed they offer: Levels 1 through 4 and the sunless Mystic Tan. My VIP membership includes everything up to Level 3, so if I choose Level 4 or Mystic Tan, there is a small upgrade fee for that session.
The Level 1 – 3 beds are pretty average. I don’t think any of them have specific facial tanners. The Level 4 stand up is pretty cool. It has like a million fans and does a pretty quick job of bronzing.
The place is always clean, and the staff is always friendly. They always offer the lotion deal of the week, but they don’t get too bent out of shape if you refuse it. I appreciate this because obviously you will never need to buy a new lotion bottle for each visit, but they do let you know about deals when they are available.
I prefer to buy my lotion online due to cost, but don’t tell them that because they will try to scare you into believing that lotion bought online is usually expired or imposter. I suppose that could happen, but I have never had any trouble with lotions purchased online nor have any of my friends.
If you do buy a lotion from the salon, be sure to buy it when it’s on sale. They pretty much always have something on sale. It will still be overpriced but not terribly so. Also, if you become a «VIP» member, there are extra lotion discounts.
Overall, I like this Amazing Tans location. Their hours tend to be more limited than their bigger salons and the equipment isn’t top of the line, but the staff is really nice, which goes a long way with me.
