Salon Tropics

Salon Tropics' technicians, who are certified by the Suntanning Association for Education, wield spray-tanning wands and oversee UV beds, imparting bodies with a beachy glow throughout the winter months and preparing them for such occasions as high-school proms, spring break, and graduation. Thirteen UV beds—divvied up into five levels of tanning intensity—line the salon where clients bronze bodies in a lie-down Sun Kissed bed or embrace the more intense rays and bedtime stories of a standup Sun Struck capsule. Being the only salon to offer VersaPro in southeast Baton Rouge, the automated booths spray a pigmented solution evenly over the skin In less than one minute for a natural-looking, streak-free bronze that lasts for up to seven days. Salon Tropics friendly staff can recommend an array of lotions, shower gels, and tan-extending moisturizers—from such brands as Designer Skin, Australian Gold, Swedish Beauty, and California Tan—that are designed to help darken and lengthen the life of tans.
