I use to be a frequent tanner back home, in Indiana. I was worried about the prices I'd come across in the city, but found out about Park Slope Tanning on Groupon, so I decided to try it out. I purchased 3 spray tans. First, the front desk girl was not very helpful...or personable for that matter. Secondly, I felt like the versa spa was very dirty. I just did my second tan this evening, and the guy working - while a little more helpful, mentioned that the "floor" of the versa spa might be slick. Others I've been in are self cleaning, this one must not be. Even the rug outside the spa is slimy and you spend majority of your time dancing around putting your clothes on while trying to stand in your shoes so you don't touch the gross floor. Finally, I don't think that they carry the same amplifier that I normally use, which I like to put on before my spray tan to help get an even spray and tends to work much better with my sensitive skin. The workers did not suggest any lotions for me, so it was a good thing I had a pack left from my last visit in IN. I have to use one more tan before March, which I will do, but if I come across a better place at a similar price, I won't hesitate to move my business elsewhere. read more

Got an airbrush tan on Tuesday. The girl asked me what shade I would like. Light. Medium or dark. I asked for between medium and dark. I am a dancer so I was doing this for a competition. I told her that before and that I needed a good color. When she was done I told her I it wasnt dark enough. She reassured me it would get darker and told me she wouldn't recommend a second coat or I would be too dark. Here I am 2 days later waiting for this tan to kick in. I look the exact same, people can't believe I even got a spray tan. The only part you can see it on is my wrists. So now I have paid $65 for a spray tan I could've done better myself for $14. The girl doing it was very nice and sweet but it was a huge waste of time and money. read more

Great experience at park slope tanning. They offer great deals and packages, I got one free because it was my first time. The girls were really nice and knowledgeable, I had never tanned before. Definitely will recommend to friends and will be back! read more

Ashley was terrific!! My airbrush looks amazing!! At first and I was a little skeptical to get it done, but now I'm so happy with the outcome. Looks natural, and she was so comfortable to be around! read more

I just got a spray tan done by Ashley, and I am absolutely delighted with the results. She took her time and really listened to what I wanted, and it turned out beautifully-- she added contours here and there that make me look 20 years younger and as many pounds lighter. No streaks or splotches, just a golden, even tan. Thank you, Ashley! read more

GHETTO. This place is so dirty and smelly and disorganized. As other reviewers have said, it's the only tanning place in Park slope, so you don't have a choice. But if you have a choice, DON'T choose this. I tan with my clothes on because it is so filthy you want to expose as little of yourself as possible. This place seems like it's a really dirty storage facility for another business in the building. It smells, swear to god, like a toilet. Seriously. What is up with that? Is there like a sewage leak in the building or something. Ugh. And they close whenever! You can go at 4pm and they're closed when they say they're open until 10pm. You go all the way there and they're closed and don't answer their phone. This, and the fact that tanning is horrible for you, should be enough not to go. It is for me now. read more

I bought a living social deal for 3 spray tans for $36. The place was clean, the staff was was helpful and knowledgeable, and my tan was a great natural color. All in all a great experience and would definitely recommend it. read more

I'm surprised at the somewhat negative reviews on here. The staff have been really friendly and helpful while not pushy at all. I got one of the cheapest packages to prep for a trip to Mexico and have been a few times. I've never had to wait. I upgraded once to a nicer booth for $3 and got super dark in one day. They have some good deals - the free tan with lotion packet purchased on Sundays and also I was given two free visits with the package I bought. read more

After moving here from Florida, losing a flawless tan was unacceptable. I tried different tanning salons in the area and this one is the best thus far! Reminds me of home... Clean, friendly staff, slightly high pricing but once you step into the tanning bed, all the stress of work slips away :) read more

Ashley was amazing! I'm an first time air brusher and she went through the process and made every step of the way super educational and comfortable! I will be using her in the near future!! read more

Lovely staff and great beds! They are open convenient hours too.

scheduling this appointment was a nightmare, they changed my appointment date and time twice and final time was literally the week of my wedding, leaving me in a lurch and scrambling to find a new place. there seems to be only one person who does spray tan and you are subject to her schedule and it changes randomly and often. Very unprofessional place, i would never recommend even attempting to book an appointment. read more

Avoid this place! Closed for two weeks now without notice. Scammers! If you're going to be closed at least update your business hours, so customers don't waste time traveling. Shame! read more

They don't advertise as much but they have high end equipment an packages are fairly priced. I purchased the buy 1 get 1 free for new customers and got 2 tans on level 5 for 25 dollars . One tan worked quite well and I didn't see a reason to tan the second time when I already got results in one tan. But I won't let something free go to waste . The girl behind the counter was very helpful and not pushy at all . Great place to have on 7th avenue. read more

Nice tanning salon. They have a lot of specials: buy 1 get 1 free, free Sundays and week specials. Rooms are spacious, free towels, helpful staff. I will be back:) read more

I'm updating this review after the owner offered to fix the situation and says they are updating the policy. I wish the people at the desk had been this proactive, but I appreciate the owner reaching out. read more

Just had airbrushing and I must say the girl that was helping me out was absolutely amazing. Not only did she know what she was doing, she also was capable of making me feel comfortable and knowledgeable of the procedure. Although a simple process, she detailed the all the pro's and cons and what i should and shouldn't do . She was a sweetheart and really acted as if she wants me to look my best which made me extremely comfortable and needless to say the tan turned out amazing, read more

I'm not writing this review to be a pain. I'm writing it in hopes that it'll create some CHANGE! I don't tan often - maybe 4-5 times a year, but when I do, I have no choice but to come to Park Slope Tanning as it is the only tanning salon in my neighborhood. I use the standup bed. It is absolutely FILTHY. The floor is dirtier than the street outside. You feel like you need a hazmat suit just to enter. They do not clean it in between uses. Also, there isn't even a mirror in the room anymore, it must have fallen off and they've been too lazy to replace it. I went tanning yesterday and since multiple people had used the bed before me it was getting very hot so I took a couple of 30 second breaks. One of the times, I attempted to get back in and the door was STUCK. It took me about a minute to pry it open. Had to use all the strength I had. What that means by the way, is that this door could also get stuck while you're IN IT which is pretty much the most terrifying thing I could imagine. Lastly, the salon randomly opens and closes whenever they please, with no warning. They close at 10pm, yet sometimes, you arrive at 7pm, and there's no one there; doors locked. One time I even called ahead and told the staff member i'd be there at 8. She said "ok see you then". I arrive at 8, doors locked, no one there. I truly believe the only reason Park Slope Tanning is still in business is because we have no other choice in town. Oh and no, I won't be bullied into deleting this review like I was last time. MAKE SOME CHANGES. Thanks! :) read more

I hate when everybody writes reviews only to complain about something. I liked this place. I think they have the best tanning bed, I'm talking about the matrix, and I was actually really satisfied with their services. I mean, I get it. It's a little bit expensive, but kinda worth it. Really nice tanning salon and I will definitely go back. :) read more

I joined just as ownership switched, and the service and experience was fantastic. The equipment was all new, improved, and highly efficient, with new lights in all beds. The owner is very personable and cares about the business, and the administrator is so sweet. read more

My boyfriend was going on a business trip to Cali and was afraid that he would be made fun of for his pastiness so he was dead set on getting a tan. I was not thrilled at the idea of him spending a ton of time under uv lights so I suggested a spray tan. Being the crazy person he is, he immediately became a spray tan booth expert and told me that he refused to use anything but a versa spa spray booth. Those are pretty darn rare but we were lucky to find one in park slope near where we live. We could not have had a better experience at park slope tanning. The man who helped us was so incredibly nice and helped us pick the tan that would fit us best. He let us take our time and answered all of our questions. And we had a lot of questions. The value was also great because we got a bogo tan as we were first time customers. I would highly recommend this place! read more

Went for an airbrush for my friends wedding. Ashley was great. Really accommodating with my schedule and did a nice job. Left feeling 5 pounds skinnier! read more

I was very unimpressed with how unprofessional the owner of this salon was. I had purchased a month of tanning but unfortunately had to get surgery a few days later so I was unable to physically come to the salon so I called and asked to have my account put on hold and one of the workers here told me that was fine. 3 weeks later I come back to resume tanning and my account said that my package expired. I was furious. One of the workers named Will helped me out tremendously after the owner refused to even speak to me directly. Really appreciate the help from Will read more

I just came back from the shop and must say the tan is great. I usually break out and get spots on my face but the lotion I used today was wonderful! Deff stop by and get a package it's worth it especially with the cold weather. . And get a lotion you will love this place!!! read more

Great staff! Will is very helpful. I've been to many tanning place after I move out Brooklyn. A lot of them try to push you buy their package that you don't need. I find this place is the best, and most comfortable tanning salon I've ever been! read more

I went with my friend and she got a tan. She her tan was very even and nicely done. The staff was very friendly and accommodating as i waited for my friends tan to be done. This location is clean and spacious. read more

I have been tanning for many years now and this place has been by the far my favorite tanning spot. Before I came to Park Slope tanning, I was regular customer at Beach Bum tanning and then Alaskan Sun. This place by far surpasses them because of the customer service that is provided by the employees. Victoria is very helpful and explained me there system very well. My tans always come out great and I always leave satisfied. Plus the place is extremely sanitary. I definitely recommend this place to anyone who tans or wants to start tanning. read more

I got a groupon and I'm glad I did. The dirk there was super sweet! I was scared of doing a lay down bed b/c I always do stand up. But the high level ones here are lay down. And she was super understanding and accommodating. She promised if I felt uncomfortable I could at any point end it and go to the stand up! She didn't pressure me into buying any products or memberships. I enjoyed my experience here and plan to come back again. read more

Just moved into the neighborhood and was worried I wouldn't have a tanning salon near me . When I walked into this place felt very welcomed prices was good the staff was good overall place is thumbs up !! read more

I give them 4 stars just because I think they are a little too expensive for how the place is... Tiny and not super renovated. But everything else it's amazing... Nice, clean, people there are friendly and my skin looked perfectly and uniformly tanned after the sun bed. read more

Lola was super helpful and gave me a great airbrush spray tan. It was my first time and she answered all my questions and made me feel very comfortable. Thank you! read more

Great place. Friendly staff and solid quality machines

Just had my second visit. This time with Ashley. Nothing but an amazing experience! Definitely got the results I was hoping for. She cares for you and exactly what you want. read more

Amazing staff and amazing packages! 5 stars all the way! I recommend everyone to tan here! I love the bed! Absolutely amazing!

Some good deals. Free tan on sunday with a purchase of a lotion packet. The tanning packages last six months, but as long as you call before the six months are over, you can extend your tans. Some of the machines are kind of old. For example, in the level six bed, the screen where you pick mist/fan/music etc is all scratched up and you can only see one or two buttons clearly. The level five bed is fine. Those are the two i have tried. Staff is nice enough, though i basically only talk to them to tell them my last name and the amount of time i want to tan. Towels, eyewear, and water are provided. read more

I called to check on the hours bc of the holiday (memorial day) and the person i spoke to said they were open regular hours. I'm here now, it's 7:25pm and the door is locked.... mind you they're supposed to be open until 10pm. read more

Traveled 45 minutes from manhattan to go tanning and they are closed at 1pm. No sign on the door, no one answered the phone. I usually have great experiences here but I am very disappointed and will not be coming here anymore with the chance of them being closed in the middle of the day. read more

I finally came back after my last visit, I'm very glad I came back here despite my experience that one time. My room was promptly ready, clean, and friendly desk person. I will continuing coming back and would like to hank the management for reaching out to me after my experience there. read more

I been a client for two years now and I really like this place, staff is knowledgeable, very well mannered and very helpful. My biggest complaint is that they only have one bed for level six and is time to change the lamps, last time there I barely notice a tan after my session. read more

Great place to tan and excellent staff with fair prices. Recommend the level six and level five bed which is what I use. Decent hours for a neighborhood tanning salon and always recommend read more
