Anyone know of a place that has the UVA sunbeds for tanning in Seoul?

Cheers

My hairdresser has a tanning bed business on the side.
He's in England now but will be back in Seoul by mid-April.
Remind me to send you his contact information later.

Cheers will do

Can you PM me the details?

There are places all over the place. However 99.9% of them haven't changed the bulbs on their beds ever, rendering them useless and a waste of money.

Just a heads up.

i found a really great place here in apgujeong near the station. it has the best beds i've seen (or experienced) here in korea. the drawback: it's extremely expensive - $20 per session, but they're the professional quality beds (with the bulbs changed regularly) that you'd find at home (i'm from the states). really nice place with lots of good lotion choices. it's called california tan. if the cost doesn't deter you, i'll PM you directions.

Please, that would be great.

Thanks

i'm just interested in meeting some women, and the tanning bed is a great place to find the hot ones

[echobelly]

Hey still waiting for those directions....

Can you post them or PM me?

Cheers

sorry for the late reply, guys - here goes:

apgujeong station, exit 4. make a right as you come out of the station (on the dunkin' donuts/body shop street) and take another right at the smoothie king (a few yards down the street from dunkin'). go straight and take a left at the cafe pasucci (sp?). keep going straight down the road. you'll pass a subway sandwich shop, a mark's and spencer dept. store, and a papa roti (all on th right). when you see the twotwo chicken on the LEFT, look up. the california tan is on the third floor above the flair bar. here's a website for those of you that speak/read korean:

www.tancalifornia.com

again, the packages are absurdly expensive (at least $20 per session for the stand-up beds), but after two sessions, my pasty-white ass saw a big difference. it's a great place.

never used one..just laid down...listened to music..popped the little plastic eyes they gave you over my eyes and slept away...lol
not much fun standing up..any tanning beds that you lay down in?

[echobelly]

Great...thanks for that.
I will give it a try.

Cheers

Plynx:

Does Tan California have eye protection? Many tanning salons in Seoul don't, and aren't even aware of why they might be a good idea.

Also, you really saw a difference after only two sessions? Wow! I wish it were cheaper, but if it works...
