I absolutely love this whole concept! Anytime you can get the ladies together especially before a big event to all relax in silky robes and get gorgeous. Plus they have drinks and ENCOURAGE hanging out there! -- WIN!
They have online booking abilities, which is very nice especially since the four times I called I always got their voicemail. Unfortunately there wasn't an option to cancel your appointment so I had to leave a voicemail for that and once it was addressed (almost 24 hours later..) I rebooked online for same day.
The lady who gave me the tour was super sweet, helpful and knowledgeable. I have spray tanned custom and in booths many times but even if I had been a first timer I would have been very comfortable.
I tried the Pura Booth. I am a light olive skin tone but have absolutely no base right now. Usually in custom tans I do a medium-dark spray and in Mystics I do a level 1 or 2. Never a 3! I said I wanted to get pretty dark for The Open so she suggested a level 3. I was a little hesitant but she assured me that would work or I could "double-dip" and get twice the amount of color. I erred on the side of caution and stayed with a basic level 3.
The spray process was so nice and the booth itself is really high tech and left me not feeling sticky or drippy (yay no streaks!) it's nice that the booth does a PH balance spray and the color solution is heated so it was a welcome surprise! I left with just a slightly bronze color and showered the next morning for maximum development.
I was really disappointed with the color. Nobody noticed I had gotten a spray tan. I didn't FEEL tan. It was almost like using a self tanning lotion like Jergens for a couple weeks. Very subtle but natural I suppose. I ended up getting a custom the next day from another place because it was THAT light.
I understand getting a double when you have some kind of base tan but I don't think my tan was "Level 3" dark. I won't be back but I might send all my fairer skinned friends there.
