WA’s First 24/7 Contactless Spray Tan Studio, La Sol Tan, Opens This Month

Make no mistake, there's no such thing as a healthy tan. But that hasn't stopped us from pursuing a sunkissed glow all year round with a little help from fake tanners.

If you're a frequent fake tanner, you pretty much have two options. You can lock yourself at home on Thursday nights and lather yourself up in fake tan, trying not to get it over everything as you reach around for that annoying little patch of back that seems impossible to cover. Or you could book a professional fake tan, which means fitting a tan into your schedule and putting up with the whole awkward experience of standing naked in someone's bathroom as they spray every inch of you. 

Sound familiar? Well, WA's first 24/7 contactless tanning studio is a game changer. With two new salons opening this February, La Sol Tan is all about convenience and comfort. Inside you'll find high-tech VersaSpa PRO booths built to help you master a professional-level spray tan all by yourself in just four minutes. Sounds scary, but don't worry after doing it once, you'll find it's surprisingly easy. You just select your tan type (there's even a clear one if you need to tan at work), get prepped and then follow the poses prescribed.

I must admit, I was a little worried about how it would turn out but surprisingly it was all pretty seamless and the result was way better than any at-home attempts. I would suggest booking your first tan during staffed hours so someone is there to walk you through it, but after that you should be fine on your own.

The beautiful space also has all the pre-tan and post-tan prep products you need and both locations have free parking right outside, so it's super easy to get in and out whenever you're craving a quick glow. 

It'll set you back about $55 for a casual once off tan—perfect for weddings or special events—but they also have a bunch of membership options that can bring your cost per tan down to $36 if you're keen to go regularly.

La Sol Tan will be opening studios in Scarborough and Cottesloe this February. Head to the website for all the info and to book.
