Come in and quench your winter blues with some powerful rays of light.
We are dedicated to helping you avoid sunburn whether you tan here or outdoors
under the sun. Helping you understand how much sun your skin type can
handle is an important step in your life-long skin care. We believe that
moderate sun exposure for individuals who can develop a tan is the smartest
way to maximize the real benefits of sunlight while minimizing the risks
of too much or too little sun exposure. We would like our new clients
to look over this Skin Type Analysis before using our tanning salon for the
