BeetTan Traverse City – Spray tans

BeetTan Traverse City is a tanning salon in Traverse City, MI, located at 1151 S Garfield Ave. The studio specializes in healthy sunless tanning using a plant-based, beet-derived solution. Owner Brandy Heiges, who describes herself as an emotional support spray tan artist, serves the Traverse City area and surrounding communities. The business focuses on providing a natural tan without the risks associated with sun exposure, a concern that became personal for Heiges after a spot was removed from her face due to sun damage. The salon also participates in the Munson Employee Discount Program and partners with local cancer and skincare specialists to provide non-toxic spray tans to patients and individuals at high risk for skin cancer.

The tanning process utilizes Beettan, a solution powered by beet extract. The sugar from the beet reacts with the skin to bring out a color similar to a natural sun tan. Combined with other natural ingredients, the DHA beet extract helps achieve a bronzed glow by interacting with the outermost layer of the skin. The studio uses state-of-the-art spray tan equipment and a universal solution that suits all skin tones. By removing cosmetic bronzers, the process avoids staining, mess, and the need for barrier cream, ensuring no orange results. For preparation, clients are advised to shave and exfoliate the night before or the morning of their session, avoiding these steps within two hours of the tan. The studio recommends using Beetit Buffing Sugar, an oil-free dry exfoliant containing Vitamin C, and instructs clients to keep lotion off their skin for two hours prior to the appointment.

It is situated near several local landmarks, including Arbutus Court Park, which is about two tenths of a mile away. Boon Street Park is located about three tenths of a mile from the studio.
