About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Sun Tan City, a regular noticed something peculiar one morning. As he applied his usual sunless tanning lotion, his reflection in the mirror seemed to shift and move—like someone else was using the same booth next door. Curious, our regular approached the adjacent booth only to see an old photo of himself from college days staring back. Turns out, the mirrors were just really good at reflecting memories too! Since then, everyone jokes that Sun Tan City has a time machine hidden somewhere.

2. At Sun Tan City, a delivery driver complained loudly one afternoon, ‘I can’t believe you ran out of SPF 500!’ The beautician smiled and replied, ‘Sir, it’s just SPF 50.’ The delivery driver scratched his head and sheepishly laughed, realizing his mistake. From then on, whenever anyone asked for SPF 500, the beauticians would wink and say, ‘Just give us a minute—we’ll whip something up!’

3. At Sun Tan City, an elderly lady exclaimed one day, ‘I thought I saw someone walking on water!’ The staff just smiled and nodded, used to her frequent exaggerations. Then one afternoon a delivery driver joked, ‘Ma’am, you’re seeing things again—those are just our tanning beds reflecting off your glasses.’ She laughed heartily and replied, ‘Well then, bring me closer to those magical mirrors!’

4. At Sun Tan City, as customers were getting their nails done one afternoon, the stylist announced over the intercom: 'Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our new tanning lotion is now available in bubble-gum flavor!' Customers froze mid-breath, some even dropped their nail tools. A regular whispered, ‘Bubble-gum tans? This could be big!’ The stylist shrugged and said into the mic, ‘And for those who prefer something more traditional—we still have strawberry and watermelon flavors.’ Everyone relaxed, except for a delivery driver who asked if he could get a cherry-colored glow for his next shift.
