Direct answer
Zoom Tan Prices: budget $9.99–$179 per service. Anything below $9.99 in the documented set is an add-on or a partial service rather than a full appointment, and anything above $179 comes down to an extended or premium booking.
The menu price is rarely the checkout price. Tax and gratuity alone generally add 25% on top of uv bed - level 1, before any add-on is accepted at the chair.

How this compares with the wider U.S. market
Context, not a price list. The point of these numbers is to tell you whether the quote in front of you is routine for the U.S. in 2026.
| Service | Market low | National median | Market high | Unit | What drives it |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| UV bed - level 1 | $6 | $11 | $18 | per session | Base-level bed, longest exposure time. |
| UV bed - level 2 | $10 | $16 | $26 | per session | Faster bronzing bed. |
| UV bed - level 3 | $15 | $23 | $36 | per session | High-pressure or hybrid equipment. |
| UV bed - level 4/5 | $22 | $34 | $55 | per session | Top-tier beds and stand-ups. |
| Spray tan (booth) | $25 | $45 | $75 | per session | Booth is cheaper; hand airbrush costs more. |
| Unlimited tanning membership | $20 | $45 | $110 | per month | Tier determines bed access and spray inclusions. |
These bands describe the national market, not this page's subject. Use them to judge whether a quote is reasonable, not as a price you can book.
What uv bed - level 1 costs in your metro tier

Where the extra money goes
Ask about these when you book, not at checkout. Every one of them is easier to decline before you arrive than halfway through a service.
- 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.
- Enrolment or annual fee+$15–$60
Charged in addition to the monthly rate at many chains.
- Bed level+$8–$40
Level 1 through level 5 is the primary price ladder.
- Membership tier+$15–$70
Each tier unlocks a different set of beds and spray inclusions.

Tipping: the numbers rather than the etiquette
Working out a percentage on the spot is a nuisance. Here they are converted to dollars at the low, middle and high end of the national range.
| Gratuity rate | On $6 | On $11 | On $18 | When it applies |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15% | $0.90 | $1.65 | $2.70 | Standard for a satisfactory service |
| 18% | $1.08 | $1.98 | $3.24 | Common default in mid-size and large metros |
| 20% | $1.20 | $2.20 | $3.60 | Typical for a stylist you intend to rebook with |
| 25% | $1.50 | $2.75 | $4.50 | Reserved for complex colour, long appointments or a rescue job |
- Assistants who shampoo or rinse are frequently tipped separately, normally a few dollars.
- Missed-appointment charges are penalties rather than services. It is not tipped.
- At a resort or hotel spa, check for an automatic service charge before adding another tip.
- On a package or prepaid series, tip each visit on the value of that visit rather than once on the whole package.
What people get wrong here
These are the ones that generate complaints. Each is prevented by one question asked before the service starts rather than after.
- 1Buying lotion at the counter without checking the pricecosts $25–$90
The single largest surprise on a first visit.
- 2Not asking about the enrolment or annual feecosts $15–$60
Charged in addition to the monthly rate at most chains.
- 3Joining before checking the freeze policycosts $60–$300
A plan you cannot pause bills through the off-season.
- 4Assuming the membership covers every bedcosts $10–$40
Higher-level beds are usually an upgrade in addition to the plan.

The booking script, word for word
Read these out. They take about ninety seconds and they are the gap between a quote and a surprise. Save the last one for emphasis — a written quote settles any dispute at checkout.
- "If I join the membership today, is there an enrolment or annual fee on top?"
- "Is removal of my existing product included, or is it a separate charge?"
- "What add-ons do you normally recommend for this service, and what does each cost?"
- "Is a shampoo, blow-dry or finish included in that price, or billed on a separate line?"
- "Are taxes added at checkout, and do you have a card-payment surcharge?"
- "If this runs longer than booked, does the price change?"
- "Do you take a deposit, and does it come off the final balance?"
One more at the desk: ask for the itemised total before you tap the card. Every line should match something you were told about on the phone.
What the bill looks like at checkout
Work it forwards once and you will never be caught out again. A $86 service does not cost $86.
| Line | Amount | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Base service | $86 | The line you see on the menu |
| One typical add-on | $22 | Accepted at the chair without a stated price |
| Subtotal | $108 | Before tax and gratuity |
| Sales tax at 8.4% | $9.07 | Varies by state and city; services are taxable in some states only |
| Gratuity at 18% | $19.44 | Calculated on the service, not on tax |
| Sensible total | $136.51 | 59% above the menu price |
Illustrative. The 8.4% tax figure varies by state - several states do not tax personal services at all.
The rule of thumb: add roughly 59% to any menu price for uv bed - level 1 to get your sensible out-the-door number.
Prefer not to do the arithmetic? You can run the numbers for your own service.
Twelve months of uv bed - level 1, priced out
Most budgets break at the cadence, not the price. UV bed - level 1 maintained twice weekly in season works out to roughly $528 per year once gratuity is included.
| Provider level | Per visit | Visits/yr | Service spend | Gratuity | Annual total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Budget provider | $6 | 40 | $240 | $48 | $288 |
| National median | $11 | 40 | $440 | $88 | $528 |
| Premium provider | $18 | 40 | $720 | $144 | $864 |
Cadence comes down to typical maintenance intervals. Your own interval is the largest variable.
The lever most people reach for - switching salons - is usually the weakest one. Moving from the $11 median to the $6 budget end saves $240 annually, but so does simply stretching the interval by a quarter.
When a membership actually beats paying each visit
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.
| Monthly plan | Per-visit rate | Break-even | Annual visits needed | Annual cost | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $15 / month | $11 | 1.4 visits | 16 visits | $180 | Worthwhile above 1.4/month |
| $24 / month | $11 | 2.2 visits | 26 visits | $288 | Worthwhile above 2.2/month |
| $35 / month | $11 | 3.2 visits | 38 visits | $420 | Worthwhile above 3.2/month |
Break-even = monthly fee / per-visit price. At $11 a visit the maths is simple enough to do at the counter.
Use the quoted rate rather than the market one and test this against your real visit count.
