Tropical Tan Winner's Proof

Hi Tropical Tanners! We are so happy and excited to announce that we’ve won FAVORITE of the Four States for Best Tanning Salon! We’ve won every year, and we’re so honored to know that you enjoy our service as much as we enjoy working with you! Thank you for making us #1. We work hard to ensure that you receive the highest quality in customer service, cleanliness, & the most technologically advanced equipment.

Every single one of Tropical Tan’s employees is Smart Tan Certified. We are so serious about providing top-notch service that this certification is a non-negotiable requirement for working here. This certification is necessary because our tanning beds must be adjusted for each session to accommodate the clients’ current skin tone and desired tan level. Our staffers don’t just turn on a timer and push the “on” button. They program a fully customized tanning program every time.

All of this means you can rest assured that you’re receiving the highest quality of sanitation, customer service and the best kept equipment in town! Gyms with tanning do not offer this degree of one-on-one personalization, so you risk developing a painful sunburn instead of a beautiful tan glow. We are also able to give you the best product recommendations for maintaining your color and keeping your skin in good condition. Bad sunburns can lead to permanent damage and we are 100% committed to making sure that never happens to you at Tropical Tan.

We hold ourselves to the highest standards that far exceed the basic requirements for our industry, something that gyms do not do. We care about your skin, educating you on Smart Tanning, and helping you design the right package to meet your tanning needs and your budget. Its so important to build a base tan and to never burn. 

We properly sanitize our tanning beds after every session, something that gyms shockingly do not do. We care about our clients, and your trust is important to us. We would never take advantage of your trust by being lazy about our commitment to quality and service.

A session at Tropical Tan is about more than boosting your skin tone. We take pleasure in giving you the royal treatment so you can unplug from your everyday life and enjoy a few moments of pampering and relaxation. Our clients know that they can depend on us to deliver that experience, which is why they have named us the FAVORITE of the Four States! Keep up to date on all of our latest specials, promotions and contests by liking us on Facebook and registering for our text club.

God bless and make it a great day!

Our Bring In A Friend Special is back! Our fans have loved this promotion for over 30 years because it allows them to share their love of tanning and luxury with their friends. We are inviting all of our current clients to bring in friends who have never tried our services before. If your friend decides to buy a tanning package, you’ll both get 50% off! To sweeten the deal, we’re extending the 50% savings to existing clients who haven’t come to see us in a year or more. If you decide to come back to us, we’ll give you a tanning package for half the usual price. Current clients in active standing can bring back friends who haven’t visited us in a year, and both of you will get the special promo price. In the past year, we have added aqua massage beds and Mystic spray tanning. Though we are a tanning salon first and foremost, we stand behind our other services 100%. You and your friends don’t have to be avid tanners to find something to enjoy at Tropical Tan.

We think of our clients as our friends, and we see our Bring In A Friend Special as an opportunity to meet even more amazing people. As always, your complete satisfaction is our top priority.

Black friday sale

Tropical Tan is absolutely thrilled to announce our biggest sale ever in over 30 years of business!

On Black Friday only, we are offering 50% off all of our services and products. This discount applies to nearly everything we offer, with the exception of Arbonne products. This means you can pick up a bottle of that luxurious body cream, purchase a year’s worth of tanning sessions and even treat yourself to an indulgent aqua massage package. We know you’ll probably be eager to sign up for some infrared body wrap treatments to undo all of the delicious diet damage done by Thanksgiving and holiday dinners.

Our new sunless tanning treatments are half off as well. We know how dreary the winter months can be, and we are firm believers in the power of beauty treatments to help people feel good about themselves when it’s cold and dark outdoors. Getting a little bit of a golden glow before a big holiday party can make a huge difference in how you approach the coming new year. Some studies show that tanning can help to alleviate the symptoms of seasonal affective disorder, so you have even more reasons to stop by Tropical Tan on your Black Friday shopping trek!

As an extra special gift to our loyal and beautiful customers, on Black Friday we are offering $10 in Tropical Tan bonus bucks for every $50 you spend. Bonus bucks cannot be used on Black Friday, but they may be used any time before December 31 on whichever products or services you choose.

Win A Free Spray Tan! – HAPPY HALLOWEEN

happy halloween

Halloween is one of Tropical Tan’s favorite holidays. We love being able to express different sides of ourselves. Some of us go glam, and others opt for silly costumes. No matter what costume you wear, you surely want your skin to have that beautiful golden glow. That’s why we’re introducing our new UV FREE Spray Tanning Services just in time for Halloween.

To celebrate Halloween and the fall season, we are offering one Text Club member the UV FREE treatment of her choice. If you aren’t already a Text Club member, simply fill out this form and you’ll automatically be entered into the contest.

Many of our favorite clients choose Halloween costumes that show off their amazing figures. They can attract even more admiration by popping in for a quick UV FREE tanning session. We offer two different types of UV FREE services. Versa Spa tanning is a three-step process. First, the body is treated with a priming mist to make sure that the skin absorbs the tanning solution properly. Next comes the spray tan. After that, a gentle moisturizing spray tones and nourishes the skin. The moisturizing mist has special anti-aging properties. One Versa session costs $32.

Mystic Tanning harnesses the power of heat to guarantee optimal and even absorption of the spray tan solution. The spray nozzle moves back and forth so it doesn’t miss any hard to reach areas. There are four shades of Mystic Tan available, ranging from Glow to Dark. You can even add aroma blends to your tanning spray for an extra luxurious experience. A single Mystic Tanning session costs $25.

October is Brest Cancer Awareness Month

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

At Tropical Tan, we believe in giving back. Our services and products are intended to make people look and feel better, but sometimes that isn’t enough. Most of our customers are women, so women’s causes are very close to our collective heart. Breast cancer is an illness that affects so many of us, and in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we have decided to launch a donation campaign. This cause is dear to our hearts since we have experienced it.

Every little bit helps, and we know that many of our customers are students or young adults who do not always have very much money to spare. To show just how far every dollar goes, we are encouraging all of you to donate just $3 to the cause, with a modest goal of getting an average of $5 for every donation. All the proceeds go to Hope 4 You.

If you make this small donation through Tropical Tan, we will give you 25% off any product or service you purchase that day. If you donate $5 or more, we will give you a bracelet to show our thanks and appreciation. We hope that you will be inspired to donate and to feel how rewarding it is to help others.

<!— We are continuing our partnership with Powerhouse Gym. New customers with valid Powerhouse ID cards will receive $130 in free services if they purchase a yearly membership with us. We are very excited to have joined forces with Powerhouse. Tropical Tan is all about health and wellness, and we are glad to give you an incentive to stave off the “freshman 15” and maintain your figure through the holiday season. —!>

Thanks to all of you for inspiring us to make a positive impact in our little community of Joplin. For the whole month of October, the positive effects of our tans and aqua massages are further amplified by how good you’ll feel after contributing toward a great cause.

God bless and make it a great day!

One last thing, through Halloween we are giving $10 off on spray tans. So don’t forget to get that perfect color for all your Halloween parties with a quick UV free spray tan in our Mystic HD or our Versa Spa.
