$5-$25 for Totally Tan & Spa Add-On Prices, from 2 documented prices. Includes cost drivers, metro tiers, gratuity tables and annual cost of ownership.

Source-separated pricing Reviewed August 2026 U.S. focus

Direct answer

Totally Tan & Spa Add-On Prices runs $5–$25 for the services documented below. That figure comes from 2 separate published amounts, not a single quote. The wider set of charges on this page spans $5–$25 once fees, add-ons and package items are included.

The single most useful habit is to ask for the service name and the tier together. "UV bed - level 1" on its own can map to three different prices on the same menu.

Documented price lines, service by service

Everything below was published by a source listed at the foot of this page. Grouping matters: 1 of these 2 lines are actual services and the rest are add-ons, plans or policy charges that should never be averaged together.

National price context for these services

Use this as a sanity check. If a quote lands well outside the national band below, ask what is included before concluding it is poor value — scope differences explain most outliers.

The same service, four different markets

Before deciding a quote is high, check it against your own market rather than the national number. A $16 quote is expensive in a tier-4 market and unremarkable in tier 1.

UV bed - level 1 by metro cost tier
Market tierPlanning rangeMultiplierExample markets
Tier 1 - highest-cost metros$15–$191.35–1.75×Manhattan, San Francisco, Boston, Seattle, Washington DC, Miami Beach
Tier 2 - large metros$12–$151.10–1.32×Chicago, Los Angeles suburbs, Denver, Austin, Atlanta, San Diego, Portland
Tier 3 - mid-size metros$10–$120.94–1.10×Columbus, Kansas City, Charlotte, Nashville, Phoenix, Indianapolis
Tier 4 - small metro and rural$8–$100.70–0.93×Smaller cities, county seats and rural markets

Derived by applying regional cost-of-doing-business multipliers to the $11 national median. Treat as a sanity check on a quote you have been given.

Where the extra money goes

Ranking these matters. Nearly everyone compares the headline price of two salons and overlook the four lines below it that really determine the bill.

  • Contract term and freeze ruleschanges the contract, not the price

    Minimum terms and freeze policies change the true cost.

  • Lotion purchase+$25–$90

    The largest and least-expected line on a first visit.

  • Bed level+$8–$40

    Level 1 through level 5 is the primary price ladder.

  • Enrolment or annual fee+$15–$60

    Charged in addition to the monthly rate at many chains.

  • Membership tier+$15–$70

    Each tier unlocks a different set of beds and spray inclusions.

What people get wrong here

These are the errors that show up repeatedly in pricing complaints. Every one is avoided by asking once asked before the service starts rather than after.

  1. 1Not asking about the enrolment or annual feecosts $15–$60

    Charged in addition to the monthly rate at most chains.

  2. 2Joining before checking the freeze policycosts $60–$300

    A plan you cannot pause bills through the off-season.

  3. 3Assuming the membership covers every bedcosts $10–$40

    Higher-level beds are usually an upgrade in addition to the plan.

  4. 4Buying lotion at the counter without checking the pricecosts $25–$90

    The single largest surprise on a first visit.

What to say on the phone

Ask these when you book rather than on arrival. Once you are gowned and in the chair, declining an add-on becomes socially much harder — which is precisely why they are offered there.

  1. "If this runs longer than booked, does the price change?"
  2. "Is removal of my existing product included, or is it a separate charge?"
  3. "Is a shampoo, blow-dry or finish included in that price, or billed separately?"
  4. "What add-ons do you normally recommend for this service, and what does each cost?"
  5. "Which provider tier is that quote for, and what does the next tier up cost?"
  6. "Do you take a deposit, and does it come off the final balance?"
  7. "Can you email or text me the quote before my appointment?"

Finally: get the quote on paper. A text or email costs the salon nothing and removes any argument at checkout.

The sensible total, worked through

This is the gap that surprises people. Starting from a $14 base, here is where the money goes by the time the card is out.

Worked example of a single appointment
LineAmountNote
Base service$14The line you see on the menu
One typical add-on$8Accepted at the chair without a stated price
Subtotal$22Before tax and gratuity
Sales tax at 7.4%$1.63Varies by state and city; services are taxable in some states only
Gratuity at 20%$4.40Calculated on the service, not on tax
Sensible total$28.03100% above the menu price

Illustrative. The 7.4% tax figure varies by state - several states do not tax personal services at all.

Takeaway: budget $28 when the board says $14. The difference is $14.

Prefer not to do the arithmetic? You can run the numbers for your own service.

What uv bed - level 1 costs you over annually

A single $11 appointment is easy to justify. Maintained twice weekly in season, uv bed - level 1 becomes a $528 annual commitment at the national median — and that is the number worth deciding on.

Annual cost at 40 visits (twice weekly in season)
Provider levelPer visitVisits/yrService spendGratuityAnnual total
Budget provider$640$240$48$288
National median$1140$440$88$528
Premium provider$1840$720$144$864

Gratuity is included at 20% because it is expected rather than optional. Deduct it if you track tips apart from service spend.

The lever most of us reach for - switching salons - is generally the weakest one. Moving from the $11 median to the $6 budget end saves $240 a year, but so does simply stretching the interval by a quarter.

Membership break-even: the only maths that matters

A membership is worthwhile above one number: monthly fee ÷ per-visit price. Below that visit count you are subsidising the salon. At a $11 per-visit rate, here is where each plan level breaks even.

Break-even by monthly plan price
Monthly planPer-visit rateBreak-evenAnnual visits neededAnnual costVerdict
$15 / month$111.4 visits16 visits$180Worth it above 1.4/month
$24 / month$112.2 visits26 visits$288Worthwhile above 2.2/month
$35 / month$113.2 visits38 visits$420Worth it above 3.2/month

Excludes enrolment and annual fees. Add those before comparing plans over twelve months.

Before signing, check the maths on your quoted rate.

Tipping: the numbers rather than the etiquette

Percentages are awkward to compute at the counter. Here they are converted to dollars at the low, middle and high end of the national range.

Gratuity on uv bed - level 1
Gratuity rateOn $6On $11On $18When it applies
15%$0.90$1.65$2.70Standard for a satisfactory service
18%$1.08$1.98$3.24Common default in mid-size and large metros
20%$1.20$2.20$3.60Typical for a stylist you intend to rebook with
25%$1.50$2.75$4.50Reserved for complex colour, long appointments or a rescue job
  • Card tips may be pooled or delayed to the next pay run. Ask if you want it to reach one person directly.
  • Cash gets to the provider quickest and is still preferred in most independent salons.
  • Assistants who shampoo or rinse are often tipped separately, generally a few dollars.
  • Do not tip on membership dues, booth rent, deposits, annual fees, gift-card loads or cancellation charges — no service was performed.

Your other options, and when each wins

Price alone rarely settles it. Compare scope first — what is actually included — then compare the number.
