*****Great experience since day one.

I've been tanning with Judy and her staff for many years. It's been a great experience since day one. Staff is very knowlegable and very friendly. Products are great, salon is very clean and the beds are great. There are several salons in the area but I highly recommend Southern Exposure over any of the others. You need a tan the staff there will help you obtain one.

***** Clean and Fast
When my old tanning place closed, I needed to find a new one. Southern Exposure is even better than my previous tanning salon. The rooms are very clean and neat.
There has never been a wait for daytime tanning. And I have even found some cute jewelry in the boutique. I would totally recommend Southern Exposure to a friend!

***** Rachel is the best and most helpful in all services

Rachel is the best and most helpful in all services. She is very knowledgable on product and the types of beds. She goes out of her way on the retail to present good quality and style. I really miss Lisa, but this is a great team and I wouldn't go anywhere else.

***** Excellent Tanning
I enjoy going to Southern Exposure. There are many tanning places in the area, but at Southern Exposure, I am treated so well. I enjoy the environment as well as the tanning beds! When I walk in the door I am greeted by a friendly face, I am spoken to with respect, and I tan in a beautiful environment. Southern Exposure is the only place I will go.

Favorite place to tan!

This is by far the best tanning place I've been to. The service is always great, the tanning rooms basically have everything you may need, and it's always clean. I definitely love coming here and it's worth the prices.

Clean, friendly, great quality

Review: The salon is always clean, you can see staff sanitize everything. The staff is always friendly and helpful, they will always make sure you know how to use the beds. They offer music, sprays, stickers and other services that many other salons do not have but their prices are still competitive with others. They also have reasonable hours for people to pop-in after work.

Great Results and Great Service

Review: I've been in the area for about a year now and have tried other tanning places in town and others do not compare. When I first moved here I was looking for a place that can give me the results I wanted, clean environment and friendly service. I used to work for a tanning salon in my hometown and those were some things we valued most. I like the different levels of units they have to offer, and also a spray tan if you need some color quickly. They also have a wide variety of lotion to use which is very important and always running good sales on tanning and lotion. Another perk this salon has is the merchandise they sell, purses jewelry, sandals, sunglasses, etc. Overall I would and have been recommending this salon, I hope others experience is as pleasant as mine has been.
