I booked a last minute appointment while in town for my sister's med school graduation. I received a prompt response and Candi was very flexible with my schedule, agreeing at first to come to my hotel late night (10:00 pm) and then super early the next morning (7:00 am) due to my dinner running late. She was on time (actually early), set up quickly, paid attention to detail (very important during a spray tan - if you're not paying attention that's how you get a botched job), and incredibly thorough throughout the process. Most importantly, I got a beautiful glow, perfectly even color just a few hours later, with no sign of splotchy hands or feet (always a dead giveaway). Moreover, I'm on day 6 of my tan, I still have color, and it's fading beautifully (not patchy and weird). I'm so pleased with the service I received - can't recommend enough. Will definitely use again!

I understand things happen especially in the Covid world we live in, but this is no way to run a business.

Lights out. Not open for business. I wait as long I can to not interfere with myself being late for work but ultimately had to leave without using the salon. Now correct me if I'm wrong, but this leaves me in a position of paying for a service that I am unable to use at no fault of my own. When is someone going to hold this place to a standard ? Doesn't matter. I won't be around as a customer to find out. I can and will take my business elsewhere. I suggest you hike it across town too if you don't want to waste your money.

They have a special where you pay $20 to use spa facilities for the day, I picked the water massage bed, red light bed (for skin rejuvenation not tanning), the infrared sauna for a private Pilates class (led by instructor on screen prerecorded), and finally a spaceship-like steam bed that's supposed to hydrate you.. or something . All of it was a little bit of a stretch in the health benefits side I think, but I sure as hell get super relaxed at the end! In between the sessions I used a full-body massage chair they had as well. My spray tan was ok. They provided these nifty stick feet so your soles don't look like Saturn. There were two spray tans to pick from. I got the affordable one, and the pigment was just a lot more orange than I prefer. The voice in the booth was also super low volume so I panicked that the session would turn into a Friends episode, the one where Ross gets a tan but I survived. Cleanliness was good! Would've been great if they had a personal storage locker and offered robes at the beginning. I think it would've been helpful for the staff to outline your schedule before you start the day. It was a little confusing not knowing where to go next, etc. Overall great experience, if I lived there I would definitely revisit!

Nola Tan was my first spray tan experience and it was so positive that I came back again for another wedding. I have fair skin and dark hair, so I was nervous about looking orange or the color not fitting my natural skin tone and looking fake, but none of this happened. My tan looked natural and stayed on for 5-6 days both times. Greta is extremely professional and even followed up with me to make sure that the tan looked good for the wedding. I would recommend her services to anyone, but especially to those girls with fair skin and dark hair who may be a little apprehensive to try a spray tan! read more

Gretta is awesome! She works from home so that allowed her to be flexible with my appointment and she is very accommodating! When you schedule, she sends you info and instructions for EVERYTHING- detailed directions to her location, pre-tan instructions/care, etc. She knows her ish! True professional. She even offers contouring for only $5 more! I didn't think about it until it was too late but who wouldn't want a temporary ripped bod for 5 bux?! Next visit for sure! read more
