Electric Beach is the best tanning salon on Hilton Head Island. Don, the owner, ensures that…read moreeveryone frequenting his salon is well aware of all safety issues concerning the use of tanning beds and tanning products.

If you can't take the time to hit the beach or the weather just doesn't cooperate while you are in Hilton Head, Electric Beach is your best bet for that summer glow!

The story behind this: I walked into this tanning place location in my way to the gym ( which includes tanning). I was looking for a hemp tanning lotion, since I find them to be the best tanning lotions I have encounter so far , next to the one I just found "bronzology" which smells fantastic by the way and does an excellent job. Well, I do not dress in design clothes to be sweaty, so I walk in here and the lady behind the counter immediately assumed what is in my budget or not. Well, a $120 lotion might be something I could consider buying if I didn't know I can get much cheaper and better quality products out there. Then she said "well you can buy our "mediocre" lotions ( she really said mediocre) because they might be more in your price range", without me saying anything about what I can or cannot afford. Either way her mediocre lotions were still 50+ dollars. In my mind I wonder why I am paying 50+ dollars for a mediocre product? Then I finally inquire about their tanning rates which I find ridiculous because their regular beds are the same price a month as the gym which is less than 50 feet away ,and you get a gym with the tanning bed. So in conclusion, if you like snooty, over priced, and mediocre tanning lotions I would totally recommend this place, and at the end they didn't even had what I was looking for.

Love going to palm beach tan, when I was in NY I always went to Hawaiian Holiday so I was looking for a similar place. The girls are always friendly, the inside is always clean. There was one time I could tell my bed wasn't wiped down and the girl apologized a million times and cleaned it. The only thing I don't like is everytime I come in I feel like they're trying to sell me something which I get cause it's probably their manager telling them to for business. Overall a decent salon read more

Last week I had gone to tan & it wasn't very pleasurable because of the renovations being done inside the building. I did make a complaint; apparently the contact information I had listed was incorrect because Kaetlyn tried contacting me immediately. My mother went into Palm Beach Tan to tan & Kaetlyn went above & beyond to apologize for the inconvenience. Kaetlyn was very professional & apologetic. Thank you, Palm Beach Tan & Kaetlyn! :) :) read more

I normally go to the Beaufort location but I was able to stop by here today while at lunch. Jacob, the store manager was really personable and very friendly.

What was left was an orange streaky mess that looked no better than the cheap spray tan booths. I called to reschedule and she said that she would respray me at no charge. After that text message I tried to make an appointment and she ignored all my calls and text messages for almost 2 weeks. At that point I asked for a full refund and still no response from her. Save your money and go to a real spray tanning spa not some tiny room in the back of a building. This was a total waste of my time and money and the results were worse than any tan I've ever had. If I could give less than one star I would for somebody running a business by herself she should know that the customer is always right all she had to do was fix the crappy tan job that she gave me and I would've been a happy customer but instead she ignored my text messages and calls, and kept my money.

I walked out looking like I vacation in the Maldives year-round and drink collagen for breakfast. The spa itself is gorgeous, clean, calming, and welcoming without being overly clinical. I wanted a little self-care after too much sun and margaritas, and this place delivered. The Hydrafacial was next-level. My skin was glowing, smooth, and legitimately looked tighter and more hydrated (even after a red-eye flight and four days of salt air). Then came the spray tan: chef's kiss. Natural-looking, no streaks, no weird orange tint, and it didn't smell like chemicals or leave me looking like a Dorito. Everyone was so kind and professional! no upselling, no rush, just knowledgeable staff who made me feel taken care of from the minute I walked in. Whether you're a Hilton Head local or just here to unwind, run to Totality. Your skin will thank you.

What is more, the ladies working here are super-outgoing, friendly, and very adept at helping you find a perfect scent. Unlike the staff at most Sephoras, they seem to really know a thing or two about what they sell and beyond just their own personal favorites. I should note as a dude who wanted a scent that was not traditionally masculine nor trite but not floral, either, these ladies were spot-on with recommendations even though I easily may have been the toughest customer they had seen in a few weeks. Aside from what I actually purchased, they threw in a sample of another scent which was a great choice for me as well. Clearly they picked it especial for me, and not just a random sample for just any customer. It's very impressive when you know you're bringing some difficult questions to a store yet they really rise to the challenge nonetheless. Will most certainly shop here again when back in town.
