Maui Tan

Amazing! Went in for a custom color spray tan on a few recommendations. Jason is very professional, friendly, and answered all my questions! I have only been bronze for 20 minutes and loving it! Worth the price alone for the perfect application! No orange color in sight and I couldn’t be happier! Will be back for my wedding tan in a month!

Best tanning spot in town! Cute décor & beds are clean. Jason is the bomb wouldn’t go anywhere else

I’ve been coming to this place for over a year and a half, and they have the best custom sprays ever! Jason is very patient, pays attention and has never failed to give me a flawless, perfect tan. Just make sure you set an appointment, because they don’t do customs on the weekend. I neglected to get penciled in once and had to find another place last minute which turned out orange and splotchy. This place, on the other hand, has a well ventilated facility and I never feel uncomfortable. Please, do NOT go anywhere else or you’ll regret it! Five stars.

I am totally new to tanning. 2 weeks ago before I my cruise I went in for an airbrush tan. The owner couldn’t have been nicer and didn’t treat me like I was mentally challenged when I asked questions. I definitely intend to go back and would recommend it to anyone.

My first experience at Maui Tan was today, and I was completely blown away! This is how tanning should always be! I walked in and was greeted by the owner. The place was immaculate– well taken care of, clean, and very inviting. I filled out the standard tanning paperwork and showed him a coupon I found online. Although I had a coupon for the wrong place, he showed me the correct website and let me use one of the promos from there. He answered all of my questions and clearly has takes great pride in the establishment.
Bottom line: it’s clean, they have the best beds I’ve seen anywhere in the Chicago area, and they know their stuff! I’ve been to 8 – 10 different tanning places in the northwest suburbs and this place is the best, hands down. Not only are the beds new, but you don’t get stuck using some crappy bed with old bulbs for the base package. The base bed would probably be a high end bed at most other tanning places. The upgrades are reasonably priced. Although I don’t feel like I need anything more than the base bed, I’m excited to try the nicer beds because they look to cool!
The beds and service are really enough to win me over, but they also have the extras that make your experience great like baby wipes in the rooms, spray deodorant, and even some different body sprays as you leave. I felt like they actually cared about me and my skin. They understood I was after Vitamin D and a little color, and really preached moderation.
Overall– this is my place. I don’t care that it’s 20 min from home and I actually pass 2 other tanning salons on my way– I will make the drive!

Still the only place I’ll go to… I’ve been dealing with awful allergy issues. That being hives, reactions after I was exposed to uv rays… So, (being that I REFUSE to give up my vitamin D from Maui) I wanted to figure out what was wrong. Am I allergic to tanning? To the cleaner they used? Is it my tanning lotions? Heat rash? Or something else at home? Well Jason worked with me for 2 months on singling out every possible option for what could be causing these reactions. We now have gotten me to successfully tan 3 sessions with no hive breakouts. Seriously I will never tan anywhere else unless I move out of state.

First time there, Jason was very helpful. He had me fill out a questionaire to figure out me skin sensitivity. The beds are very nice, with new technology.
Being at Maui Tan, now i can never go back to a franchise tanning salon. Price was very reasonable too!
I would highly recommend!

Every time I stop by Maui, I’m more and more impressed with the service!

I am only giving two stars because of a bad spray tan I got here. I have also used the beds and the beds are awesome! Very clean, you never have to wait very long, and the owner is extremely nice and helpful.
BUT, I will never go back for a spray tan here. I have gotten one other spray tan that turned out perfectly. No streaking or blotchiness, just enough color, it looked very nice. I went to a place for that spray tan in Champaign, so I needed to find somewhere closer to home. I heard great things about Maui’s spray tans so I thought I would give it a shot. I got the custom spray which was done by the owner, Jason. He explained everything to me before I got there, and I followed all of his directions to the letter. The next day, however, I woke up with orange spots and awkward lines around around my hands and feet as well as a big brown spotty splotch running down the inside of my arm. I called Jason to see if there was anything he could do, he told me to come in. When I got there, he said that the spots on my arm were probably from me bending my arm shortly after the tan… I wish that he would have told me not to bend anything for 2 hours after the spray and I wouldn’t be in this mess. I did not have a problem with this with the other spray tan I got, and I went out the evening after I got that spray tan where I’m fairly certain bent my arms… He couldn’t explain the spots on my hands and feet and also couldn’t really fix anything about it. All he said he could do was make it darker, which for obvious reasons, I didn’t want to do.
So now I’m attending a wedding tomorrow with a big brown splotch on my arm and orange fingers… greeeat. So again, great for bed tanning, BAD for spray tans.

Very helpful staff. Went there for the versa spa spray tan for a special occasion. I do not tan on a regular basis and the spray tan turned out great. I loved that they had a coupon on their website that helped the cost. The facility was very clean and well maintained. I would go back here again any day.

This place is AMAZING! I went there for a spray tan. It was my first spray tan. The person who did the spray tan was very professional. The girl at the front desk was very nice. I will be going there for my tanning needs.

Went here recently for a Spray Tan. It was the first time I had ever inquired about a spray tan and the first time I did it. I stopped in on my lunch and spoke with a young girl who frankly, wasn’t very bright. I hate to sound so crude… but, she really was a total ditz. I had to pull answers out of her like a wind up doll! I would ask whats the difference between the machine/​Booth and the Personal Spray? Answer: One is a machine and the other is a person (really, thanks– so glad I asked). Questions & answers like that– she was frustrating. Since it is Summer… I figured she is a high school-​er and part time… leave it at that. However, if I were the owner. it would bother me to have someone so «not smart» or «proactive» answering these questions. Also, she was a mess with the «Spray Tan» persons schedule… just a mess. Ex. His schedule is open– what would you like? …(me) how about 2 today– (her) oh– he wont be doing appointments today until 4??? OK. so, then he is not open… WTH!!! Anyway– that was that–
The owner, I think his name is Jason was very nice, very professional and super informative. I had asked the girl earlier what I can expect re: what to wear and how long I have to wait until I can shower… etc…her info– was not complete. His was much more thorough– unfortunately, by the time I was getting this info– I was already there and it was too late to prepare for anything different. For example, she mentioned disposable bikini-​type clothing to wear– I FULLY expected to wear them as she made it seem like that was normal. HOWEVER, when I was standing there getting ready to change– he said, Yeah… no one really likes the bottoms because they are more like a diaper!!! Alrighty then– definitely DO NOT want a diaper looking tan line… so, I got stuck leaving on my thong underwear (I know– TMI) which was BEYOND an embarrassing moment. That is the closest I have come to naked in front of someone other than my husband in over 12 years!!! So, that was a mental moment I would love to erase.
All in all– the TAN was nice– I was concerned about orange coloration and unevenness… Jason did a great JOB and I was very happy with the results. Again, he was super professional and made my life’s embarrassing moment a little easier by just being a pro. I will not do a Spray tan again because it just isnt for me… but, I would go back here for other tanning needs!!! He has a nice business here… I would recommend training the staff more or hiring people a little older/​more experienced with dealing with the public.

Maui Tan is the best Salon I have ever been to, and that is why I have been a member for going on 3 years now. When you walk into Maui, you are greeted by Jason the owner and or one of his staff members, all having nice grins on their faces. From being a dedicated member when I walk in the salon, they have my lotion and bed room number ready for me. In addition, these people have become more like family to me, and I would not go anywhere else ever because of it.

The owner Jason is awesome and gives great package deals. It doesn’t hurt that he has a sweet and drop-​dead gorgeous wife, who is also very talented at make-​up, helping out! It is always clean and the only time I have ever had to wait for a bed is around prom time. Jason has a wide variety of lotions and can answer any question, seriously, any question. I will never return to xsport or la tan after finding this place; even if they paid me. It is a night and day difference!

Great tanning place. Very clean. All the stuff and the owner are proffesional and nice. I am scared to use beds, but I like spray tannning. I have been doing it for 2 years at Maui Tan and I have always been very happy with the results. I love the new spray tan with moisturizing spray.

Things to consider:
1– I have never in my life set foot in a tanning salon before.
2– I have great disdain for the general lifestyle that would involve tanning.
Soooo… how did I find myself in the AH’s lovely Maui Tan? I’d say it was a combo of missing summers (summer trips to South America = WINTERtime for them) and this crappy «it’s so sunny out but secretly only looks that way and is freezing and ridic blustery» weather. I needed some zing.
Additionally, they have great online coupons; one through Unilocal and the other on their site is $ 5 for 5 sessions (on consecutive days). So while I won’t be going five times, it’s still super cheap. I bought their nice face/​tanning/​anti-​aging (is that an oxymoron?) lotion, the weird $ 3 eyeglasses, and it was all around $ 25 total.
Fortunately it was slow when I went, because I asked Jason every question that came to mind as he gave me a quick tour, from, «Is 5 minutes at level 5 the same as 10 minutes at a level 2?» (notsomuch) to the merits of the $ 250 bottle of tanning lotion (hahahaha).
For you professional tanners, they have everything from a level 5 bed with aromatherapy, an iPod dock, and a full-​on air conditioning system to that super fancy Obsidian or Black Throttle or whatever the name was lotion. For the newbies like me, they are very patient, clean, and affordable. Once I relaxed, I liked the sunny feel. :)
While I feel more encouraged to find a nude beach than to become a salon regular, I *will* be back during the next few days to cash in on my deal once… or maybe even twice… more.

i was hesitant to write a review because i don’t want anyone to find out about it; it’s generally a town secret… BUT since it’s so great, it deserves a good review. the manager is awesome & suggests which bed might best suit you. the beds are the NEWEST of the new and most have a maximum of 8 minutes because they’re that intense. they’re really high tech beds; one even talks to you (freaked me out at first) and «welcomes you to your tanning session» and you can adjust everything, it’s touch screen, etc. to sum it up, i’ve never left the place without a major change in color. i went for 8 minutes yesterday and fried but that was my own fault and the manager suggested otherwise haha. anyways — best tanning boutique ever. i’m obsessed. oh and they change the bulbs very frequently too! weeeee!
