About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when most Palm Beach salons were still closed, a delivery driver pulled up to Palm Beach Tan. He noticed something unusual—all the chairs had been arranged in a perfect circle around an empty spot. Curious, he peeked inside and saw only one chair facing outward, as if someone was waiting impatiently for him. Smiling to himself, he delivered the goods and left. Later that day, a regular customer arrived, glanced around, and asked the manager, ‘Where’s my usual spot?’

2. At dawn, when most Palm Beach salons were still closed, a delivery driver pulled up to the loading dock of Palm Beach Tan. Curious about an unusual box in the back of his truck, he opened it and found… something unexpected. Inside was a life-sized inflatable mermaid, her tail waving gently. The delivery driver looked around nervously but no one seemed to notice. For weeks after, whenever someone got a tan at Palm Beach Tan, they’d catch a glimpse of a smiling mermaid reflection in the mirror—nobody knew whose idea it was, but everyone loved it.

3. At dusk, while customers were leaving Palm Beach Tan, a small dog ran into the salon, sniffing curiously around the reception desk. The owner looked down and saw that the dog’s paws were glowing softly in the dark. The owner smiled, thinking it was some kind of strange trick or toy. She picked up the dog gently and noticed its collar had a note attached: ‘Delivery for Palm Beach Tan.’ Turns out, it was just an overexcited delivery dog on his nightly rounds.

4. At closing time, as customers were gathering their belongings, a neighbor walked in and announced over the PA: ‘Next week’s special—tanning sessions guaranteed to make you look younger or your money back!’ A delivery driver then chimed in: ‘And if you don’t get any younger, we’ll deliver your tan right home!’ The whole place erupted in laughter, and everyone left with a smile, knowing that Palm Beach Tan was definitely not your average beauty salon.
