About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Sun Tan City beauty salon, customers started noticing something peculiar one morning. Over the intercom came an unexpected announcement: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, our new self-tanning lotion now comes with a free Hawaiian vacation for everyone!’ Customers rushed to the counter, asking if it was real. The receptionist smiled mysteriously, replying, 'Just another day at Sun Tan City!' Later that week, a delivery driver arrived with a mysterious package marked ‘Hawaii Vacation.’ Inside? A bottle of sunless tanner and a card reading: “Congratulations on your tanning success!” Everyone laughed, realizing it was just a clever marketing gimmick—until a neighbor swore she saw someone wearing a lei in the parking lot.

2. At Sun Tan City beauty salon, a delivery driver left his truck for a quick service one day and returned to find an unusual package in his car's trunk. Curious neighbors passing by later reported spotting a strange box on the parking lot, which seemed to change color depending on the sun’s position. Upon closer inspection, the package turned out to be nothing more than a colorful kiddie pool filled with glowing LEDs. The delivery driver had simply parked next to a local kindergarten, and when he came back, some enterprising kids had decided it would make a perfect outdoor plaything. A few apologetic smiles later, everyone went home happy—except maybe the receptionist at Sun Tan City who wondered why her tanning beds were suddenly so popular that afternoon.

3. At Sun Tan City beauty salon, a delivery driver left his box of supplies next to the parking meter. Later that day, a regular noticed an unusual item—a tiny plastic palm tree—amongst the boxes. Curious passersby began asking if it was part of some new tanning trend. Soon enough, everyone in town had their own version of what those little trees meant. Some said they were for extra UV protection, others claimed they helped you tan faster. The owner finally admitted they were just decorations from a recent office party. And now, whenever someone spots one outside, neighbors joke, ‘Oh no, is another salon trying to copy our unique “palm tree tanning”?’

4. At Sun Tan City beauty salon, one foggy morning, an elderly gentleman emerged from the steamy bathroom wearing nothing but a wide-brimmed hat and a puzzled expression. Upon closer inspection, he was holding a pair of mismatched socks and muttering about his ‘tanning ritual.’ A delivery driver overheard him and offered to help with his navigation back home. The old man nodded, still clutching his socks and smiling, as if discovering a new secret to life’s mysteries.
