Ok, I really try not to give negative reviews, but when fellow customers are going to have a bad…read moreexperience, I try and warn them.
I went to this tanning salon about 2 years ago and had a mediocre experience. I lasted about 3 months/10 sessions & as that's about as much as I'll ever tan, I stopped.
This year, to prepare for Spring Break, I decided to give them another try. I stupidly bought the buy 3, get one free promotion. The price was decent (although if you break it down as price per minute, it's $$$). The salon was HOT. Like pass out hot! The poor girl up front was so nice (A+ to her), but she was clearly uncomfortable & trying to keep the customers moving along. The cluster of fans were all broken, as the young lady up front answered when I asked. They were covered in dust & lint, obviously having sat there a while.
I grabbed one of 4 'clean' hand towels on my way back to my booth. It only got hotter, as my tanning booth was all the way in the back. Plus, it didn't help that another client was recently in the tanning tube, so it was still hot from that use. If the A/C was working, or if there was a fan in my private room, I would have been ok. It was dark, hot, a tight fit & the floor was filthy.
After shuffling myself into the tanning booth, after literally shuffling in on my socks & taking my socks off INSIDE the booth, (I didn't want my feet touching the dirty tiled floor), I grew even hotter!
The machine itself was in horrible shape! Broken plexiglass, door didn't shut all the way from the inside and missing an interior handle! I had to use my nails to close the door, which kept opening!
Then, when I was done, dripping in sweat, as the $$$ machine didn't have any circulation, I was unhappily greeted by my 1 of 4 washcloths. I dabbed my face and I promise, it was sandpaper. Ouch!
Next, a quick trip to the bathroom where I was met with a dirty restroom, rocking toilet (ever heard of a plumber or a wax-ring?), and a sink that needs a professionals help. No hand towels, just a wall dryer that puts out HEATED AIR.
I wish I didn't care about $, or I wouldn't go back and use my 3 remaining tans. I'll come prepared with ice packs & a gallon of water to drink next time.
I think they just get business, as they're the ONLY tanning Salon in Westminster. Sad.
