    Truth!!... Heather Tan, West Hollywood, CA &  NYC
    Patti Q.

    Love this place!! Truly the best tan experience in all the LA area. So natural... Like you've been on vacation in some exotic local. I've had several different ladies airbrush me and all are great! Heather Airbrush VS Traditional Spray Tan = THERE IS NO COMPARISON.... Heather has been airbrushing for 13 years. She uses organic products that don't make your skin do crazy things. No running, streaking, or off colors. My tans last 7-10 days then fades naturally. They are open late and on Tuesday they offer HappyHour $ pricing. Multiple tan packages are available on her website and Heather works diligently to accommodate her clients. She also has a new pop up location in NYC if your on the East Coast.

    Can't believe that this was my first visit here but now I'm hooked. First of all, the actual place is adorable with witty decor everywhere that makes it extra enjoyable. The staff is extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about what they're doing so I didn't feel pressured or left with unanswered questions. I needed some color for a photoshoot the next day so I went with the second darkest color and was amazed at how natural the color came out with zero patchiness or smell. I'm on day 3 of it, which they mentioned was the peak color as it continues to set and only had very minor darker patches that surfaces that were super easy to fix myself. The price is a bit higher than your standard spray tan in the area but you are paying for the quality and quality is what you will get.

    Heather is the only airbrush tan I've had and it's the only one I'll ever get, until eventually move and am no longer near Heather. Then I'll probably go somewhere else but, I'll always think of Heather! Buy 2 get 1 free!

    Namaste bitches tan with Heather or die pale.

    Oooooooooo my goddess. Ok Heather is a total goddess & she'll make you look like a bronzed goddess within 10-20 minutes. I've been #teampaletodeathuntilidie until I meet her. First experience: she open the store at 11PM on a Friday night for my friend & I. She personally came to spray tan us both & so I can #hastag #tanbyheather not #hastag #notbyheather Ok namaste bitches just go to Heather & trust me I don't tan EVER but now I do with her.

    It's true!

    Heather is phenomenal. I LOVE her energy and passion for tanning. In fact. Fun fact: I'm black. I was worried about how a spray tan would look on...me. My main goal was an even tone since my skin is all over the place. In addition to being extraordinarily knowledgeable, Heather completely put me at ease. She's been in business for years and it shows. I couldn't believe how amazing I looked *pats self on back*. Even and contoured, honey! For the first time in my life I really felt completely happy with how I looked naked. I've been back. And plan on coming back again, and again and AGAIN. Never thought there would come a day where I'd be excited to go to my spray tan appointment but the jelly beans, champagne and Heather's bubbly/kind energy all keep me coming back for more. I'd recommend her highly! YOU WON'T BE ORANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I love Heather! I've been to every spray tan salon and mobile salons in the LA area, and Heather is definitely the best. I've been going to Heather for almost 2 years, and she's very detailed and so are all the girls who work for her. What I love about her tan's are: 1. I don't have to shower (although it's recommended to) before going out. I literally use a make up wipe on my face so I can put on my make up, and don't have to worry about the tan getting all over the place or coming off when I put my clothes on. All other spray tan salons in LA require you to wait 4 hours/8hours minimum B4 showering, and u really have to shower or else I gets blotchy or clumps up. Heathers is not like this at all. 2. Her special formula of organic tanning solution is the perfect color. I always get level 9 because it looks the most natural on me and I'm naturally really pale. 3. Her solution also doesn't smell! 4. Your tan will last for at least a week. 5. Heather is very accommodating with me and my appointments since my schedule is very unpredictable and she is able to fit me in. I recommend Heather over any other tanning salon in LA. I will attach some pics to sho

    Pale East Coast girl made a day of appointment hoping to look glowy for an opening party last week. Not only did the West Hollywood location accommodate me, but I got Heather herself! The next half hour was an education I was sorely lacking in the options that exist in self tanners. I walked away with a tan that developed gradually over the next few hours and was perfect for my event! Now, over a week later, it's only now starting to fade. Highly, highly recommend.

    The natural-looking tan I had for my photoshoot. Thanks, Heather!

    Suzie Q's Fun Facts: Founder Heather Shaw was once a professional dancer, having been featured on "So You Think You Can Dance" season 3. =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ I don't spray tan often. But when I do..... I go to Heather Airbrush Tanning. Actually, it'd be more accurate to say that I had NEVER spray tanned in my life until a makeup artist friend - who would be doing my makeup for a photoshoot the following day - referred me to Heather Airbrush Tanning. I'm luckier than some, in that I have natural olive skin which, even when I'm winter-pale, still gives off a tawny glow. But still, I'd be showing quite a bit of skin at my upcoming shoot, so it was time to bring out the big guns and "take the plunge" with tanning. My experience here was very efficient and pleasant. I found easy street parking on Sunset (at around 1 pm on a Saturday), and only waited a few minutes in the front lobby before my tanning assistant came to greet me. I love the cheeky and fun aesthetic here. Posters, pillows and other knick knacks feature wry slogans such as "help me, I'm pale." The small space screams with personality, and clearly doesn't take itself too seriously. My perky tanning assistant was all high energy and enthusiasm, despite probably doing 30 spray tans a day. After having me complete a simple questionnaire, she walked me through the process as a newbie, and kept assuring me how happy I'd be with the result. [My only neutral-to-negative observation here: Despite advertising free champagne, I was only offered water (which I was served in a champagne glass, no less). Maybe they'd run out?] My tanning assistant next led me into a little room (roughly the size of a small bathroom) that would be my tanning chamber. I was asked to undress, and she put me at ease as she sprayed all my nekkid nooks and crannies. Ultimately, it's the results that matter - and I was very happy with mine. I had a uniform, realistic-looking, delicious glow for my photoshoot the next day. And I felt that the price ($59 with a $10 off "newbie" discount) was quite reasonable. If I ever need another insta-tan, I'd definitely return!

    I wore tiny undies this time and you can see the difference. It's beautiful! Next time I'll go nude and have NO tanlines!

    FIRST TIME TANNER! Heather?? Please! Now it's all about Tory! You walk in and immediately Tory is your best friend and you want to bake her cookies. Now to the tan... Right as you sit down Tory will explain every detail to you about how it works, how to make it last, what the product is made from (ALL NATURAL & ORGANIC) Then for all of fifteen minutes she will lightly shower you with color and you will be on your way. I woke up this morning with the prettiest glow possible and am so so glad I made the choice to call Tory! Thank you again Tory! If you are thinking about getting a tan calling Tory is your best option in life.

    Went to Heather airbrush tanning today for the first time and had a great experience. I live all the way in the palisades and drove here because I heard great things online. Heather herself was there and greeted me very enthusiastically and warmly. Eva is the girl who sprayed me and she was Awesome- super friendly and helpful. I went with shade #9 and couldn't be happier. I just showered it off after 8 hours and it looks really great and natural. Will update my review if I am disappointed in how it wears but i don't think I will be! Would definitely drive back there and can't wait for them to open in Santa Monica closer to my home. Update: it has been more than 24 hours and I am more orange than I would like to be. I wish it was more of a Bronze and less orange. Hopefully it will tone down. Update: my tan is very splotchy and scaley. Don't think I would go back and spend $65 on this tan. My membership at palm beach tan is $60 for a month of unlimited spray tan and I never have any problems. Just wanted to try something new and it was no worth it.

    Day 1 after my tan! Super natural looking, with minimal makeup other than eyes and brows! Love love love Heather's!

    Leaving an honest review here, I decided to check this place out for my first spray tan ever last week because I had planned a trip to Vegas and knew I would be by the pool. Heather's was everything I had hoped for and her place absolutely lived up to her reviews. Kiwi, who was so sweet, did my spray tan and she helped me pick a shade I would be comfortable with, since I didn't want to go too dark and I got exactly what I wanted when I woke up the next day. Not only did the tan look extremely natural but the people who knew I was getting a spray tan couldn't even believe that it wasn't from just getting sun at the beach! I traveled 45 min to an hour ALL the way from Northridge and it was well worth the trip. I'll be coming back in August before I go to Outside Lands music festival in San Francisco! This is likely the only place I would ever completely trust to get their craft of spray tanning right.

    Before anyone sees me naked, I see heather first. This includes half-naked scenarios like poolside in Palm Springs (I just went to Oldchella, it was amazing!), or a revealing dress at a film premier, birthday, wedding, whatever! Basically, if my pale arms and legs are showing in public, I feel completely naked and in dying need of heather's magical golden fairy dust to make me look and feel my best. I have been blessed to have found heather back in 2014 when she opened her super fabulous storefront on the sunset strip. I used to tan in Miami back in the day but there's no comparison to heather's tans. None. I leave heathers with a fresh glow that I can wear running errands and picking up the kids without heavy bronzer melting off onto my clothes like it used to. There's no smell when it's applied or developing, it doesn't rub off all over the sheets, and the best part of her tans: they look NATURAL. And this is NOT the case with my previous tanning experiences trying other places. Stories say she started this thing in her back yard, and to see how she's grown over the years into her stunningly beautiful location is enough proof that this woman is doing something right. She's adorable, has a cheerful personality, and she bends over backwards to accommodate my often difficult and last minute requests. We always have a great laugh and memorable conversation every time. I genuinely wish this woman all the success in the world and thank her for making me look like a goddess in my weakest pale moments. Only come here if you're looking for the best tan in town, cuz that's what you'll get. Ps. This girl is in this months Allure Magazine "Best of Beauty" issue as "Best Body-Slimming Tan" in Los Angeles. You hear me now? #lookbetternaked

Appointment & questions: I sent a yelp-msg to make an appointment & I got an answer immediately. Also the day and time I was looking for was available - so very happy with that. The staff is super nice and helped me out with any question I had. (Never got a professional tan before, so I had a bunch). Thank you! :-) Parking: I recommend taking an Uber or Lyft, because to find a park at Melrose is a little hard. I took a Lyft & that was very comfortable for me. The shop has wifi, so if you are a foreigner like me & stuck without cellular, you are able to get a ride back without searching for a Starbucks. Treatment: I got the tan from Nicole (I hope I remember your name right - I'm so bad with names. :-/ ). She was great! Super nice, asked me what I was looking for, informed me about everything she's gonna do and how I have to treat my tan at home to have the best and long lasting results. Tan: After 8 hours u're allowed to take a shower. I waited 9 to be sure. Because u will still have some spraycolor on your skin it can look a little muddy - this was completely gone after I took a shower. It came out super even & not orange at all! It came out a little lighter than I expected, but it's very pretty. Prices: 1 x Full Body: 60$ 3 x Full Body: 50$ (per Session) 6 x Full Body: 45$ (per Session) Very happy! Highly recommend this place! :-)

They have always had the latest and (most important to me) impeccably clean sunbeds. The newest beds are spectacular and look like they are from a spaceship; some are by Porsche Design, have Bluetooth, advanced air cooling and multi-lamp systems. It seemed so futuristic back then and they still operate all the most cutting edge tanning equipment. Uvasun was always a little more expensive than the other local tanning salons. I see on their website that they now offer to price-match salons within a 5-mile radius on comparable services except spray tans. In addition to state-of-the-art tanning beds and sunless spray tans they also have light therapy, infrared sauna therapy and body contouring with red and infrared light.
