Tanning Beds
Our tanning beds offer five intensity levels with advanced technology for customized tanning experiences. From beginner-friendly options to high-pressure hybrid systems, each bed delivers consistent results while minimizing UVB exposure. Features include facial tanners, cooling systems, and ergonomic designs for comfort during sessions.
Sunless Tanning
VersaSpa PRO spray tanning provides streak-free, customizable color without UV exposure. The system combines skincare ingredients with eco-certified tanning formulas for natural-looking results lasting 4-6 days. Sessions complete in under 4 minutes with odor-free, antioxidant-rich solutions that enhance skin health.
Red Light Therapy
Medical-grade red and near-infrared light therapy promotes skin rejuvenation and muscle recovery. The Revive PRO IR system uses FDA-cleared wavelengths to stimulate cellular energy production, reducing inflammation and improving skin elasticity. Sessions address anti-aging concerns and support overall wellness through non-invasive treatment.
FIT Bodywrap
The FIT Bodywrap system delivers far infrared heat therapy for detoxification and wellness. Targeted heating zones stimulate circulation, burn calories, and relieve muscle tension during 45-60 minute sessions. Benefits include improved skin tone, cellulite reduction, and stress relief through deep-tissue penetration.
Red Light Anti-Aging
NASA-developed red light therapy stimulates collagen production for reduced wrinkles and improved skin texture. Non-invasive 15-minute sessions use specific wavelengths to enhance cellular activity, addressing fine lines, sun damage, and uneven skin tone while promoting natural healing processes.

I have been a member for over a year now and I can compare it to a couple of different tanning facilities and this is by far the best I have come across. The owner is professional and the ladies Brandy and Kayla are very professional. I highly recommend this place even though I don't want them to get overly busy because I'm just being selfish.

I love this tanning salon. The people who work there are all SO nice and always welcoming, and willing to help in every way possible. The packages are reasonable, and the beds and booths are always spotless and working perfectly. I highly recommend this salon!

Best tanning salon I have ever been to. I would recommend it for anyone who wants a welcoming environment and a fantastic tan. Everyone is genuinely nice and knowledgeable. Almost never a wait and it is very clean. Noticeable difference in just a few sessions in the Max10.

I LOVE that they do email coupons and discounts. Even if I haven't been in the salon I feel like I can still get the best deals! It is always clean and the people that work there were always friendly and helpful. Can't wait to go back and get rid of my winter whiteness lol!

Sun On the Run is Great. My husband and I are both loyal costumers. Anytime we walk in we are properly greeted at the door with our rooms ready. I have tried different tanning businesses but always felt like I was getting hussled but not here. At Sun on the Run they are very clear about the contract. i have heard a few people upset but cause thet felt the were getting charged properly but honestly if your an educated adult that can read a contract befor you sign you would understand all the rules are very costumer friendly. And the location is perfect right of the freeway and lots food and shopping nearby.

I love Sun on the Run! For one, it's close to my house, but beyond that it's clean and the staff is very friendly and knowledgable. They have a great boutique in the waiting area if you have to wait for a few minutes (which I rarely do), and a great selection of lotions and other tanning products. The rooms are always nice and clean and each room has a mirror along with deodorant, freshening spray, wipes, etc. As a little bonus they give you a Jolly Rancher along with your towel and eye protection. What's not to like? I highly recommend. :)
