Services
Sunbed tanning
Our modern sunbeds provide controlled UV exposure for even tanning. With 5 private cubicles including laydown and stand-up options, clients can choose intensity levels based on skin type. Sessions range from 6-18 minutes, with expert guidance on frequency and safety.
Accelerator lotions
Specialist lotions enhance melanin production for faster, longer-lasting results. We stock premium brands like Australian Gold and ProTan with formulations containing beta-carotene and moisturising agents. Staff provide advice on selecting products suited to individual skin needs.
Brow threading
Precision threading removes hair at follicle level for defined brows. Performed by experienced aestheticians, this method offers longer regrowth periods compared to waxing. Clients receive aftercare advice to maintain results and prevent irritation.
Hydrafacial treatment
Non-invasive facial combining exfoliation, extraction, and hydration. Uses patented technology to address skin concerns like texture and pigmentation. Delivered by certified professionals, with visible improvements after a single session.
Laser hair removal
Advanced laser technology targets hair follicles for long-term reduction. Suitable for various skin tones, with treatments tailored to body areas. Multiple sessions recommended for optimal results, performed by trained technicians.

How long does a typical tanning session last?
Sessions range from 6-18 minutes depending on skin type and sunbed intensity levels.
Is UV tanning safe during pregnancy?
UV tanning is not recommended during pregnancy due to overheating risks and hormonal skin changes.

Wait 48 hours between sessions to allow tan development and reduce overexposure risks.

The girls here are always smiling even when the salon gets busy and lots of people are in and out. They have always taken the time to answer my questions as a new sunbed user and make suggestions and recommendations. If you've made an appointment, you don't usually wait at all and they move things along smoothly. There are disposable eye goggles and everything is covid safe.

Absolutely amazing tanning salon! Very clean, lots of fun promos and friendly staff makes this an excellent experience every time. Bulbs are changed often and we feel like we're in safe hands during COVID. We go twice a week and love it! Highly recommended!

I've been going to this studio for a while now and I am very pleased with everything. The studio is lovely and clean; customer service is very friendly and inviting. Nice music playing while you tanning and you can pay for courses up front so you're can be in and out in minutes if you're ever in the rush. Highly recommend!

I have been coming to this shop for several years and have been nothing but pleased with the whole service. From the moment I walk in the door until I leave, I am treated with amazing customer service. Every single staff member goes over and above their role to help you out and give you advice to help with your tan, what creams to use ect! Couldnt recommend them anymore, best sunbed shop around by far!!
