They were very helpful in picking out my ideal color (Sunkissed+) and my spray tan tech Kenzie was awesome. Made me feel super comfortable, gave perfect instructions and customized the tan to ensure the best look on me. The color looks amazing right off the bat. Very even and no noticeable smell. Not sticky at all. Was mostly worried about my hands (ring photos this weekend!) but they look great. Very excited to see how long it lasts! Pricing is super reasonable for the service.

Details: As a spray tan first timer, I was a bit nervous about finding a place in a new city and right before a vacation and wedding. So, I didn't have much time to get it right! I saw that Bright Bar had great reviews and were much much better priced versus competitors. So, I booked and went in crossing my fingers and toes everything would go well. The experience was truly good from start to finish. Not only did Alex, the owner, offer to "watch my car" while I got tanned because the parking lot they validate for was full...they spent a lot of time to answer every question I had. The tanner, Meredith, was equally as nice and did a great thorough job. I truly couldn't be happier! I haven't gotten this level of service in a really long time.

She was not welcoming and almost made me feel bad for wanting the service. Saying there was someone else waiting and telling me to rush to get there when I called ahead. With that being said, the worst part of my experience was the result of the Versaspa tan (Which I am very much a fan of in the past, and have gotten those spray tans done at Tommy's Tanning in CT many times). The spray tan came out extremely un-even and only sprayed the right side of my body!! I followed the directions 100%. Definitely a let down and if you're between Versaspa or airbrush tan, spend the extra money!

With careful prep and aftercare, up to ten days for me. Their hours are good - it's totally possible to get an appt after work. They have a large range of shade options and extras like fast development and shade adjustment to one shade darker. It's very easy to book an appointment, and I believe the price is fair. I've had a number of staff do my tan, and they've all been great. Hope this place never closes!

I LOVED the convenience of being able to jump out of the van straight back in to my car, and then hop onto the 93 home. It was awesome! I was going on a trip to Florida and opted for the "look like I've been there already for a few days" tan. I arrived early at the parking lot, and waited a few minutes for the technician to arrive. Once she arrived I signed some papers while she put the black out shades over the windows. It was a cooler day in April, so when I first got in the van it was chilly. She revved the heat up, but it was still slightly uncomfortable to disrobe and then get sprayed with the chilly solution. The color turned out ok. It was natural looking and even. I just didn't love it. In my opinion it felt a little like it had "yellow" undertones compared the brown/bronzy look I love. Looking back at the pictures, it looks good; and even my boyfriend really liked it (and he prefers me white). There was nothing wrong with it, and maybe I should have just gone for a deeper shade. Since then I have tried another tanning salon and ultimately had a better overall experience. It was more comfortable and I LOVED the final result. So in the end, Sun Tan Van was just OK for me. I would keep them in mind for the future, but they won't be my go-to.

Where do I start? I…read morehad a positive experience at their Newbury St location a year or so prior, so I purchased a giftcard during their Black Friday sale. I booked an appointment for a hybrid lash extension set at this location a month and a half in advance since they had availabilities that worked for me. I recieved email confirmations saying everything was all set and another one the day before the appointment itself. I coordinate my WHOLE day to arrive here early as it is over an hour and a half away from where I live let alone the bumper to bumper Boston traffic that easily occurs. Come to find out, the person I scheduled the appointment with on THEIR website stopped working there a while ago. They persisted in questioning where I booked the appointment as "everyone was supposed to have been contacted" except clearly me. After some back and forth by showing the emails and reciept of purchase, they call someone to come in to do my lashes since I had a trip booked the next day. An hour passes by and the woman arrives. She has me lay down without asking my preferences for length, thickness, or even style so I take the initative and let her know. Never have I ever had someone do my lash extensions before where they are resting their HAND on one of my eyes while working on the other. YES, she was pressing her hand into my eyes which was not only uncomfortable but also messed with her pain staking work. By the end of it, I just wanted to leave. My back was sore and I felt like she was stabbing my eye lids throughout the whole ordeal (I've been getting my lashes done for 10+ years and never experienced that before). What makes it even better is that the reason I even started to write reviews was because of a negative lash experience. Unfortunately, it's deja vu and my lashes will take another few years to recover. Save your money, time, and lashes by going elsewhere.

The biggest issue though was my palms and heels were bright orange. I messaged the team to let them know about this issue. A manager called me and basically tried to say it was probably my fault because I was a first time client. While I might have been a first time client here, I get spray tans often and have never had this issue before. She suggested I use windex to try to get the staining off which is an insane thing to suggest! It's a harmful chemical which would cause a chemical burn, so it's clear they do not care about the health and safety of their clients. She also said they would send me a discount for next time (not that I'd go back) but they never did. Don't go here.

For context, I have pretty severe cystic acne, went through one round of Accutane which helped initially, but then my acne came back with a vengeance. I had awful inflamed nodules and acne all along my neck that were painful and itchy, and it is completely smooth and clear now thanks to Kelly's skill and persistence in extracting. I also get microdermabrasion, which she recommends on weeks when my skin is looking calmer and can benefit from the extra exfoliation to get rid of dead skin and help with scarring. She also does scalp and facial massages to help you relax during the treatment which is really nice. If you have acne-prone skin that hasn't responded to typical treatments or medication from dermatologists, I wholeheartedly recommend seeing Kelly.
