Clients receive personalized guidance on session duration and skincare preparation. This service caters to those seeking gradual, long-lasting color through controlled UV exposure.

Sunless tanning delivers instant, healthy glow without UV exposure. Our advanced formulas develop naturally, suiting all skin tones. The process takes minutes with no downtime, ideal for special events or maintaining year-round color safely and effectively.

Utopia has many options of tanning depending on what you're looking for. I did the spray tan the staff was great they walked me through how to do it they have two different results options immediately you can have clear or color the tan is the same but the color you see instantly when you leave fantastic. If you are going on a trip or to a wedding or a party I would highly recommend the spray tan they have multiple color options as far as intensity.
I do recommend doing a trial before your event to see if you would want to go darker. Looked very clean as well. But definitely go again I think even if I don't have an event feeling a little tan in the winter feels great.

There isn't enough positive and amazing things I cold say about utopia tanning and spa. The owner is incredibly sweet and helped me through the process. It was my first time getting spray tanned, the facility is clean, the room with the spray machine is spotless and they sanitize between each client. The monthly subscription for unlimited spray tans is so worth it! I'm hooked, I wish I could give them more stars. Will definitely be a life long customer with them. :

I am so happy I found Utopia! I love that they are open 7 days a week and they offer perfect hours for my schedule. Pricing for packages is comparable to other salons. The ladies that work the front desk are very friendly and keep me up to date on any upcoming deals. I have not needed to buy lotion, but it seems like they usually have a sale on those. My only experience is with the stand up tanning bed (in the first room). It's awesome!
I literally saw color after one tan. 9 min max. I will say the one negative about this salon (as other Yelpers have mentioned) is the fact that they don't take appointments. That is annoying if you are on a tight schedule. I've been fortunate enough to not have any issues with walking in and having the bed I wanted be available.
