Tips for Perfect Tan
June 07, 2011
Run, don't walk for the best custom spray in Boston.
I never write reviews, but feel obligated to share my consistent, high-level expericence at Perfect Tan with other people in Boston.
I discovered spary tanning after a trip to San Diego several years ago. When I came back, I tried every high priced salon in Boston, and some not so high priced salons, and never had that perfect glow.
When I finally tried Perfect Tan, I was amazed at the results. The tone of the spray was natural, the spray lasted one week to ten days with proper care, and the results were outstanding.
If you have an event coming up, or just want to feel good about yourself - make an appointment at Perfect Tan (Rachel is my favorite)! The facility is clean, the staff is friendly and professional, and they know exactly how to give you the best possible spray tan for your skin tone.
You will not be dissapointed with the results, but you might become addicted to looking tan, lean and healthy! It's like going to therapy without the price tag!

Perfect Place to Tan!.
The Staff is amazing!
I have been going to Pefect tan for years! I have always received excellent service, especially from Brian, Rae, Macall, and Sam,
There tanning bed are always clean and there selection of lotions is great.
Right before Halloween, I spray tanned for the first time, Brian put me at ease and did an outstanding job.
Overall, the ambience is quite relaxed, the prices are attractive, and the experience is always a pleasent one.

LOVE LOVE LOVE. I decided to try this salon out after leaving Darque Tan down the street (way too expensive and pushy). I've been a member for almost three weeks now and love this place! I bought a 2 month package in the basic bed with the intention of developing my base tan. I was given a tour of the salon and the girl explained all of the different units to me. After I started to get a base I asked a guy about upgrading. He told me about the different options and their prices and I decided to go with a stand up unit (why not switch things up huh). He put me in for just a few minutes (which I was kind of shocked) but I think I would have burned if I went in for any longer! I got amazing color from the stand up I wanted to do that more often. The girl told me package options for the stand up for after my 2 months is up so I think I will do that one next. Overall love this place. Their prices are great, they aren't pushy, its super clean, and I don't have to worry about my credit card being charged like I did at Darque Tan

Affordable, clean place. I guess I can't complain about the waitstaff too much, but the guy who manned the front desk wasn't exactly the friendliest. I like that they give you towels and have showers if you need one. Ended up freezing my account after a week b/c I'm just too pale to be tanning, but I got a great deal at $18.95/month for all you can tan. They're also good about making sure you don't bake your skin - you can't tan more than 3 days in a row, and they check to make sure if you got pink in your previous session so as to gauge the time for the current session.

Everyone looks hotter with a tan:). OK, so I am a tanning connoisseur.....from Vegas, to Miami.....to LA...I've been airbrushed....and Brian is by far the best of the best. Every time I have a photo shoot, or an important event, I make sure to see him the day before. I leave with a gorgeous tan, and I always feel great, because Brian's fabulous and warm personalty makes every visit fun. Every girl needs her smoke and mirrors, and Brian at Perfect Tan is mine:)

Boston's Best Tanning Salon!. I was a member of a near by tanning salon for over 3 years and finally decided I needed a change. I had heard about Perfect Tan and figured why not, give it a try. And I've have been completely satisfied! Not only based on the above mentioned "Pros" but it's a pleasure going into the salon and being acknowledge by a friendly staff. I can only attest that my experiences at Perfect Tan are worthy of a positive review and a recommendation to all my fellow "Tanners". This is the salon to go, I wish they had a location in the South End!

Blotched Spray.
I came in during a visit to Boston wanting to get a spray-tan. I was ignored in the beginning by the man at the desk. All he was doing was folding towels and I was the only one in the place. Then, after someone had helped me in a spray plan (which at the time I thought was a good idea) I went into the booth. Another female employee came in and sprayed me down. About 2 hours later my color finally started to develop, only to show lots of blotches. I know I exfoliated correctly since I was beat red when I was done. it took almost a week for the tan to finally fade, and the dark spots I had to use lemon juice on numerous times.
Needless to say, I do not support the "Best of Boston" review that I read...

Great beds and stand ups plus gorgeous staff. Perfect Tan is the best tanning salon I have been to in and out of Boston. Their prices are very reasonable. They care about their customers and make sure you are fully informed of the best way to achieve your desired look. I have yet to do the Airrush but I have seen it done and it looks absolutely incredible. Very natural and gives you a beautiful glow. The staff is not only friendly and well educated but the girls are very attractive as well as the boy who works there. I would recommend Perfect Tan over Darque Tan, Campus Tan, and Newbury Tans ANYday. Go check it out!

Great tan - Priced right. I went to Darque Tan first and decided that their tanning salon definetly wasn't for me, so based on the greatt reviews I headed to Perfect Tan. I found I wasn't disappointed. They woman who signed me up wasn't pushy at all and didn't push any products at me. I would definetly recommend Perfect Tan.
