Versa Spray Tan for Special Occasions

/in /by

Proms, Graduations, Weddings and More!

If you’re planning a monumental occasion, why not be sure you’re looking your absolute best by getting a Versa spray tan? After all, you’ll be taking plenty of pictures to remember the event that will be in color… shouldn’t you have some “color” too?

Versa spray stations are state-of-the art, allowing you to customize your color. Walk in pale, come out golden in just 3 minutes! We also offer pre-sunless pH balancing and post-sunless super hydrating treatments for the total experience. Versa skin products are also available for maintenance and moisturizing at home.

Versa tans use ingredients that are completely organic and look totally natural. You won’t come out orange! These tans not only go on quickly and feel great but the color helps to hide fine lines and wrinkles, helping give you a more youthful appearance as well.

A Versa spray tan is the perfect compliment to your fancy dress or tux. For bridal parties, we offer special group packages so you can make sure all your beautiful bridesmaids look tan, even in the dead of winter. These packages include all of our facilities like our massage beds and tanning machines so you can make an entire afternoon outing of it with the whole group.

Versa spray tans are perfect for bar or bat mitzvahs, graduation, communions, proms, and more – basically, any important event in your life where you dress to impress.

I started Dark Tan because I wanted us to be different than the faded, chintzy tanning parlors of yesteryear. Our salon is a clean, quiet, elegant space that you and your party will find comfortable and inviting the moment you walk in the door.

Spring Break Tanning Tips

Getting a Good Base Tan Before You Hit The Beach

Spring Break is here and warmer weather beckons – at least in some parts of the country! For those of you planning on taking advantage of your vacation time by flying to a sunny spot like Cancun or Fort Lauderdale, I’d like to offer a few tips on how to get a good base tan quickly, before exposing yourself to the elements. You don’t want to come back looking like a lobster!

First, come in to Dark Tan for 3-4 sessions, preferably close together, before your trip. Our high-pressure tanning beds imported from Italy are designed to give you higher levels of UVA that will give you deep color quickly. These are safer than normal UVB machines, which often burn the skin.

Speaking of UVB, that’s what you’ll be getting plenty of when you are out soaking in the sun at your destination. While sun exposure is healthy and important, unlike our tanning beds, there isn’t a switch to control how much you get. Therefore, it’s always important to limit your exposure as well as use sunscreen!

Be sure to keep hydrated to prevent heat stroke and after your day in the rays, moisturize your skin with aloe. The base tan you got here at Dark Tan will have you looking fantastic the second your toes touch the sand, and if you follow these simple pieces of advice, it will get even richer without any redness or pain.

If you don’t have the chance to get in enough sessions before you leave, you can always get instant color with our Versa spray tan, which literally takes just three minutes. But because this is just a temporary coating, it will be even more important to use that sunscreen when outdoors.

And, while you’re here at Dark Tan, don’t forget to get a massage! After all, it’s free with any visit.

We hope to see you soon!

The Dark Tan Difference

/in /by

Over the years I’ve seen the inside of a lot of tanning salons. And no matter what city I was in, they were basically all the same: brightly-lit, stark, no-frills service on a tanning bed that cost $1,500 and could possibly harm you.

Quite frankly, I found it depressing. When I decided to open Dark Tan, I vowed I would create a completely different type of experience.

First, I made all services included with every visit. I wanted people to be able to use our state-of-the-art tanning beds, get a spray tan and/or lie in the 30-gallon HydroMassage bed while they were here, like a resort. I sometimes find myself having to remind our customers to do more than just one thing!

I also wanted to have beds that use the safest, most modern technology. Currently, we are the only tanning salon in the US doing only high-pressure tanning on beds imported from Italy. These innovate machines give you higher levels of UVA, resulting in deeper, more long-lasting color. Most importantly, this technology is safer than those UVB ray machines others use, which often burn the skin.

Dark Tan aims to be a stylish boutique: we are a quiet space that comes with a comfortable, professional level of service you would expect from a top-tier salon in Beverly Hills. We also sell sunglasses from the hottest brands, including Alexander McQueen, Gucci, and Jimmy Choo.

Finally, I insisted Dark Tan be convenient for busy parents so I made sure to include a Kids Safe Zone. Now you can come use our services without having to call the babysitter. Your kids will be in a supervised space where they can play while you tan or unwind from your day.

Whether you’ve been going to tanning salons for years or this is your first time, I hope you’ll agree Dark Tan is completely unique the moment you walk through the door.
