I love love love Lux tan. I've been going there for years and was so excited when they told me they were expanding to Vancouver. I often have to travel between Tigard and Vancouver because my boyfriend lives there so having another tan option is amazing. Especially living in PDX with all the rain. I've used just about every bed they have to offer and they are all great. My favorite is the high pressure bed; it's well worth the extra money and gives you a deep tan that lasts longer. Their mystic tan is also great if you want to do a 'cocktail' before a special event. Probably going to do that for New Years :) Every time I walk in I'm always greeted and feel welcomed, I'm never pushed about buying lotions or tans, the beds are always cleaned, and I've noticed they often change their lights so you know you're getting a good tan. Honestly I've never had anything but a good experience tanning with them and really won't go anywhere else now. I've tried multiple other places throughout the years and this is the only place that I will go to. If you're looking for a new place to tan check them out! They really turn tanning into a luxury ;) read more

Sadly no! I can't recommend this place any more. I have given the owner 2 years to pay me back as got charges twice on my account for a package I bought that cost over $700! I have been very patient and looks like I will never see this money again. Please read my other reviews as I hardly ever leave a negative remark. I might go to small claims court to justify this. The ladies who work here know what happened and have been nice and apologetic for what happened. Very sad!! And disappointed!! read more

This tanning salon is a complete scam operation. I was charged over $600 in fees for services I didn't even use for three of the months I was locked into their shady contract. Trying to resolve the issue was a nightmare, instead of working with me like a professional, the owner chose to argue, deflect blame, and treat me like I was the problem. He even sold me expired tanning lotion, yes, expired and had the nerve to act smug and defensive when I brought it up. I've never met someone more arrogant running a business, and to be honest, I'm not sure he's capable of a clear conversation when he seems so amped up it's like he's straight out of a bad gym ad. Save yourself the frustration and money. There are plenty of other salons in town that won't treat you like trash and won't lock you into sketchy contracts while feeding you expired products. This place is all ego and zero accountability. Total embarrassment of a business. Would rate negative stars if I could. read more

Lux Wellness - Proof that he sued me for over $600 - Tanning Beds Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

I have been to the Portland Pearl District location! Very friendly staff and knowledgeable! Would recommend

I came in and purchased a 5 pack of tans before a trip, $135 (cuz they don't tell you about the additional fee to use a card etc) and then as I stood at the counter finishing my purchase, I noticed the monthly rate was less than what I just paid for 5 sessions. So I asked if I could do the monthly subscription instead. Gal at counter said sure and proceeded my payment for the monthly package. Then I said and you'll just refund the original purchase? And she held up a sign that said "all sales are final" and said we don't do refunds. So I was charged for BOTH the 5 session pack and the monthly subscription!! And they refuse to do a refund. She called the manager and he said "sorry our machines don't process refunds" what? Makes no sense. So I was just charged $250 at this place. I feel like I've been totally scammed!! read more

I had a great experience with my cryotherapy appoint. Very clean. Nice communication and pleasant atmosphere

The place is clean and I am sure they have some good basic tan services, but they should NOT be advertising "Red Light Therapy" as that is NOT what they have to offer. Luckily I got the new client trial special so only lost $21, but beware that if you are looking for "Red Light Therapy", that's not the place to go for it. You will get pink old florescent lights installed into an old tanning bed, it gets really hot (as a tanning session does) and it's NOT good. Red Light Therapy involves LED lights, NO heat and far more intense "red". I was looking forward to going to Lux, but my visit was a total disappointment. read more

I will only tan at Lux. The staff there is wonderful, always smiling and so very pleasant. Allyson and Brigid whom I mainly see when I come in , both girls are a perfect team at Lux. read more

This might be the first time I have ever written a negative review but I think it is well deserved. I am very disappointed and feel ripped off. I purchased a Groupon for one cryotherapy session. In the fine print of the groupon it says (Not valid for clients active within the past 12 month(s).) I did not see that. Which was MY fault. I did a session of cryo here prior to try it out and the first session was very disappointing because they do a less cold shorter duration session. I really wanted to get the full experience to determine if I'd like to keep coming back but they refused to accept my voucher, they refused to credit my voucher so I could use it for their current promotional price for a single session, and they refused to refund me the money or negotiate a reasonable solution. I am at a loss.... To sum it up. I made a mistake and paid for a promotion that I couldn't use they made it a point to capitalize on my mistake rather than help me come to a mutual solution. The cryotherapy chamber isn't even as cold as my shower, the owner wouldn't accept my Groupon, refund it, or even talk with me about it, and.... THE CRYO CHAMBER ISNT EVEN AS COLD AS MY SHOWER... save your money take a cold shower, or an ice bath, or perhaps go somewhere in Portland with a legitimate cryo chamber. Rant over.. swear I have never posted a negative review but they earned one. read more

I'm only in town for the week, and just wanted to be in a sun bed on a whim, so I looked up what was closest to me and ended up here! I was planning on just doing a single session. After the friendly staff and who I think was the owner helped me out by giving me a tour and showing me what they offer (which is quite a bit!), I chose to do a session in one of their medium level beds. They sold me two sessions for the price of one, which was more than I'd expect most people to do, and I thought that was really cool of them. The place was also very clean and was in a pleasant space. I had a great experience. Would definitely recommend :) read more

I give Lux tanning in salmon creek area a 10 plus but there are not enough stars above to select but they are worth more than 5 stars! Everyone that works there has always been knowledgeable, kind and polite. The salon is always clean! I recommend them 100%! Sandy Flowers , read more

Great employees, great beds, great service. I've had issues with two other salons with lotions that I've been sensitive with and they were able to let me give the lotion right back and get one of same value. Great customer service. Will be here for a long time read more

I have been coming to Lux Tan in Salmon Creek for a few years on and off. The services and bed options get better and better and the prices stay the same. (Affordable) My favorite beds are the lay down and stand up high pressure lamps. They also do pretty generous discounts on lotions during their sales. I do wish they were open until 8 on weekends as well but other than that I have no complaints. Staff is always friendly and kind read more

After leaving my review, instead of the owner asking what he could do better, he left me a threatening voicemail saying I need to delete my review or else I'm not allowed to come back. Needless to say I have found another salon. I wouldn't feel safe tanning there if I had a confrontation with the owner inside the store. read more

Bad service, scratched beds, make you sign a 3 month minimum, they WASH hair nets.. bulbs get changed out every 6 months. Never going back

Came here again while I was in town visiting family, and needless to say I had to update my review with another five stars for Lux! Why isn't there a Lux in NYC or Miami??! The staff here is absolutely so friendly and welcoming - not overly salesy and they even remembered me as soon as I walked in the door even though I hadn't been in in months! On top of how personable they are can we talk about how CLEAN this salon is and all the tanning beds are? I really wish Lux would open up where I live because there's really no comparison to this gem. read more

Great Service ! Friendly team, clean store, new beds and overall great experience. I highly recommend this place for everyone.

Worst tanning and cryotherapy place ever. Honestly they ripped me off and I can't do anything about it. I've seen so much people talking about this after I got ripped off. The head office and receptionist don't help. read more

Great and friendly service! Very clean facilities and beds. Vanessa at the front desk is wonderful and very helpful. Gave a very informative first-time tour and answered my questions. Definitely recommend coming here. read more

I LOVED this place! After trying almost every place in town I have finally found somewhere I feel confident I will continue to love. The salon is super chic and cute! And the customer service is far beyond what I expected...so glad I came across this place after I think they got new management. read more

Didn't have a good experience trying to use a Groupon here, I got my money refunded from Groupon the day I used my first red light therapy session. The next day a manager from Lux Tan - Neil - called and apologized for the way things were handled, I appreciate the fact that they wanted and are going to fix the issue that I had with some wording that was on the Groupon and he offered me additional red light therapy sessions on top of that. It was incredibly generous and kind of him to do that. I am gracious for the fact that he handled the situation so well and that he provided an apology for the way I was treated. This is an updated review to a previous one I deleted. I am happy with the way Neil handled my first not so great experiemce and wanted to turn that around for me, however I just felt uncomfortable with one of the staff members and that's where the 4 stars comes in. I'm sure that she is a great employee to other clients, I just had a weird experience so please don't be turned off by the 4 stars. It's a great business and management does care about your experience. read more

Lux Wellness - The fine print on groupon where they suggest 12 visits to be used, however you can only get 12 visits to be used in a month. - Tanning Beds Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

See all

I was not informed a cryo package (which didn't give any benefit although I admittedly only had one session) was non-refundable. I called right after buying it and was told it was non refundable even though I'd used no sessions. They never told me that when I bought it and I was given the wrong email address to contact management to dispute upon calling. I got a call only after putting a bad review up and they were still not willing to refund and I was apologized to for getting an incorrect email address. She did say she would look into it but never called back. She offered to add a red light session to my cryo package which is what I actually thought I was buying anyway since it is what I had tried that dat but I have no proof because I only got a receipt for the $500 package. They won't do the right thing here so just be smarter than I was when making an impulse purchase because it will obviously be awkward using this now that I'm forced to. I called immediately to cancel because a friend told me they had a July special I wasn't told about and I also am no longer moving to the area. read more

The worst place ever! I tried going there twice and the first time they cancelled 4 min before the apptm when I was on the way. The 2nd time I tried using their $10 coupon but they said I can't use it because I was there before! Total lie because I was never there since they cancelled on me! Not going to try the 3rd time. read more

I love Lux! The staff is always so welcoming and friendly and makes you feel at home. The salon is always kept super clean, and they have the best beds read more

Love this place. Always clean and great service! If you are looking for a place to tan I recommend it here.

Love this place, they are willing to work with you when the beds are full!

Was coming here prior to Lux Tan and this establishment was well-run, clean, courteous and did a great job. I can't say the same for it now. There are plenty of tanning establishments in the Vancouver Portland area and I won't be returning to this one anytime soon. The creep Factor here is something to stay away from. read more

Lux tan is a great tanning salon with friendly staff. They are always cheerful and willing to help! The bed are always clean so you never have to wait. You can be in and out fast and tan. Also good location next to the freeway. read more

Clean, lots of bed options. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Is a little pricey but you have great options and most current beds. Only thing that I would say that isn't so customer friendly is weekend hours. Don't open til late. 10 and 11am. For people who work during the week have to make the most of their time on weekends. read more

I am so glad I decided to finally stop by Lux! I live in Battleground and this is the best tanning salon in my area. The beds are awesome, the staff is friendly and very professional, and the prices are excellent. Absolutely no high pressure lotion sales like I have experienced previously.... atmosphere is very laid back.... a definite improvement! read more

I bought a package deal from the previous owner. When i came back in August to have a spray tan, I learned the store had been bought by Lux Tan. They informed me I had until the end of the year to use 7 spray tans. Well, shortly thereafter, I went on a medication where I couldn't use the tans. I called back in April and asked to speak with someone in customer service, thinking perhaps they might honor even a small portion of what i had bought. Well, no one called back. So i left an another voicemail. A couple of days later, they called back. Once I was able to reach the store, i spoke with Neil and explained the situation. He said there was absolutely nothing he could do for me, other than "offer you a really good deal on a spray tan package.". I told him I probabaly wouldn't be coming back as they didnt really offer much in the way of customer service. He responded saying he indeed offered customer service in that they offered to give me free the free tans up until December. He even disclosed thst they previous owner had her spray tan unit repossessed and that they did a great thing by honoring the purchase. I think Neal has a lot to learn in the area of customer service. I would have been happy with even 1 of the remaining tans. It wouldn't have been as offended if he had just showed some sympathy instead of telling me how awesone they are. The real lesson is not to ever buy a "package" deal on services. Especially with a company that has shown such great customer service as Lux Tan. read more

I am disgusted by the way this salon operates and their lack of customer service. I reluctantly bought a membership when Lux took over Ultimates tans, only because it's located close to my home. During my time using the salon the owner Neal decided it was ok for him to take my personal number from their records and texted me multiple times, none of which had anything to do with my tanning membership. This is actually very ILLEGAL, especially when he texted me to tell me I look pretty and saying we needed to hang out... all of which were unwanted & ignored. I decided to cancel my membership, but the money was still taken out of my account for the next month. Neal refused to refund my money, saying that he would get charged a fee that he didn't want to pay. He also told me that he and his staff never make mistakes and basically accused me of not canceling my membership, which I most definitely had. Needless to say, I am disgusted with the owner and this business, and will never be supporting them again in the future. What a horrible way to run a business, and I will not have anything to do with any location of Lux Tans. read more
