    It's March 31 2025 and the girl working the front desk screamed at me and my husband when we came to tan.

    I previously wrote a not so great review about the fact they would not allow me to spray tan…read morebecause it was too late, even though they were still open. Since then the manager, Kate has reached out to me and apologized. She made it clear that would not happen again, and used it as a training lesson for her employees. The fact that they took the time to go into their system and look up my phone number instead of just writing a generic response is impeccable customer service. I totally understand that if you show up five minutes before close and expect to have a 20 minute service that is taking advantage, but she understands that was not what I was trying to do. I am super impressed with how they handled thisl M Oh'An M Oh y Lk

I have been tanning at tan republic for 6-7 years and I have never have issues the owners are great and 98% the the employees are great. When I went in in December become my next automatic payment would be taken out and the dest assured me I had nothing to worry about any when life because more financially stable I would have no problem in freezing my account. Then only issue MY ACCOUNT NEVER GOT FROVEN AND CHAHED FOR DECEMBER and JANUARY . I so so great fun for a refund for December goddess's I can purchase my child diapers now. I've my back 5 times and still no pending refund form. I've wrote the Salome 7 emails and recover 3. I would really like this issue get resolved ASAP. I don't know any other way to get there attention besides Yelp unfortunately. Kassaundra Johnston

    I recently purchased a really good deal online last January 2012 for a facial for my daughter and…read moreI. We arrived to the salon not really knowing what to expect because I had never heard of the Copper Zone before. When I walked in I was a little nervous because it is a tanning salon not a normal "salon" where you would get facials, and treatments. Meredith came out and greeted us and I was even more nervous as she had sweatshirt and jeans on, not typical esthetician professional smocks. She then walked us into a little room, which was probably used for a tanning bed before facials were offered. The room was not a typical, salon type room. It was very bare and not esthetically pleasing for a soothing, pamper yourself, type of treatment. Meredith was very friendly though and started by shaping our eyebrows. She listened to what we wanted and delivered very well. We were both happy with our eyebrows. She then did the facial for my daughter while I waited. Then it was my turn. Once she started and I closed my eyes I forgot I was not in a nice salon. She did an amazing job. Very relaxing and thorough. Meredith had high standards because my sister is an esthitician so I know what a great facial feels like. I was very pleased and would highly recommend Meredith for facials. Her normal prices are very reasonable. I think if you can look past the fact that this is a tanning salon and not a spa, you will find a diamond in the rough with Meredith.

    Horrible customer service, especially on the management's part…read more I started the introductory package in March where it came with one conventional bed and two super beds. The conventional bed was uncomfortable and small. The super beds are larger in size and variety. A few weeks later, I purchase a super bed special for the month and was able to stand up or lie down. Since then, I have not tanned. Well, I came in and purchased their 10 conventional bed special for June; 10 sessions for $35. Little did I know that all the conventional beds are the same size, unlike the super beds. The reason why I'm explaining the beds is to prove a point. I have a D size chest and when I lay down in the conventional bed, my chest and my face are touching the top glass. When I flip over, the top of my head and my ass are on the glass. It is both uncomfortable and unpleasant to lay down for 20 min like this. I requested a refund and they denied me. When I asked to speak with the manager, I was told I would receive a phone call back. After not receiving a call, I came back the second day and was told again that a manager would call me. I even checked to make sure my phone number was taken down correctly. Now, day 3, I come in and the worker says she spoke with the manager and she said because I already knew what a conventional bed felt like from the introductory package in March, she would not do anything for me. I'm sorry. What? How am I supposed to know all the conventional beds are the same when I only used it one time prior. I've used different super beds that varied in size and time. Had a manager actually called me instead of playing this game with the associates here, I may have been more prone to leaving a better rating but since nothing was done on their part, 1 star it is. I'd have to say they need better communication, customer service and management skills. After my 10 sessions are done, I will NOT be back. And I do not recommend this place for anyone with a big head, large chest or any body part that is bigger than a 12 year old child.

    What a hidden gem in little 'ol Tumwater! I saw reviews for Jesseca on Yelp and was impressed by…read moreeverything that clients had to say about her and her services, so I booked. She is super warm, engaging, friendly, yet professional and made me feel right at home. Her little room is so beautiful, inviting, and relaxing. Jesseca knows her stuff! She examined my skin and it's condition and then talked to me about a maintenance plan. She was not pushy and came off as being very helpful and wanting to work with me within my budget and skin care needs - refreshing! She explained what she was using, why, and how it would help. Her bedside manner was truly the best I have experienced (besides my sis who is an esthetician but lives in another state). She was technical and relaxing all at the same time. She gave the best arm and hand massage ever. I can tell she loves her job and could feel the love pouring out as she massaged and took care of my facial. Hard to describe but if you have ever had a "clinical" facial or a facial with someone who just isn't that into it - you can definitely feel the difference. I get facials to help slow the aging process but also for relaxation and Jesseca hit both of those areas exactly perfect! She even offered fuzzy warm socks to keep my feet warm. The bed was super comfortable and cozy too. Jesseca's pricing is reasonable, which is one of the biggest factors for me. I don't have a ton of discretionary money so I want value for services and you definitely get it here. Jesseca even told me about a special package she was offering, which I ended up purchasing as it was a good value. I can't wait to go back and continue with routine care. She carries Image products which feel amazing to the skin. Online booking was ridiculously easy with nice reminders leading up the appointment. Easy parking, easy to find, right off I-5 for those who may want to travel to Tumwater. Lots of services offered at different price points. If you have shopped around, you know her prices are reasonable. This is not a "super spa" with a glitzy glamorous ambiance and ridiculous prices to match - this is a simple little spa that is clean and warm and perfect for those looking to take care of yourself, either splurging or on a budget. There is nothing small town about her services, though. She is excellent at what she does. So happy I found Jesseca. I will be back and plan on being a loyal customer from here forward. I am looking forward to trying her airbrush tan services prior to a vacation in March. Yelp for the win, again!

I was greeted by this very quirky, sweet, friendly gal - Jesseca. She made me feel comfortable right away, gave me a tour of the place and then ran through the ropes. Upstairs was her space, it's very small, but it was private and comfortable. She was very knowledgeable - I was surprised because Ive had probably a dozen but she taught me new stuff which was great. The spray tan itself is phenomenal. Smells fresh, and unlike every other spray tan I've ever had, it was not sticky! I immediately saw color too which was nice. I am looking forward to see how well it swears in the Las Vegas heat for the next few days. She definitely has my business and I am looking forward to recommending her to friends and family.
