I've always been nervous going to a new tanning salon, because most of my previous experiences were so negative, with dirty beds and rude employees. I was so relieved to find this place, because the employees remember your name and are always more than willing to show you the ropes and answer your questions. The beds are in great condition, the employees are knowledgeable, the place is clean and welcoming. I absolutely love Bask!

This tanning salon was the only place I found in Portland that wasn't trying to sell me something I wasn't going to use. I don't tan often and was getting ready for a trip for Hawaii and wanted to get a tan before I left. The lady at Bask in the Sun was so helpful and nice unlike other experiences. She also helped with questions I had about tanning since I'm not a regular tanner. I even got my first tan free! Plus I could get to the salon after work and not feel rushed since they don't close until 8. At first I thought the pricing was alittle high, but after going and seeing how clean and friendly they were, it was well worth the price! Bask in the Sun is the only place I'd recommend or go back to here in Portland.

Convenient location, friendly professional staff and new clean beds and rooms. I don't do the airbrush tanning but I can always count on getting a tanning bed right away when I walk in without an appointment. Right next to nail salon which is convenient as well as being close to southeast portland and lake oswego. The salon is spacious and nicely decorated, doesn't feel claustrophobic like some small tanning rooms do. All in all the best tanning experience around.

I found Bask by browsing the internet. I really wanted to get a "spray on" tan for my Vegas weekend. I decided to try there airbrush tanning. It was my first experience with this type of service. It was 100 times better than I ever imagined. The tan was the perfect tone and looked natural. They are very friendly and professional. I also used there bed prior to my airbrush tanning. The bed was great! I would defiantly recommend Bask to anyone. It is truly the best tanning place I have been to since I have moved to Portland!!

Pros: Friendly, Professional, Great Beds and Advice

Finally - a place that does a great airbrush tan! I have very fair skin that doesn't tan - what a perfect solution! Jessica did a fantastic job creating a natural looking glow. It was flawless! She made me feel very comfortable and was super nice. Very cool atmosphere too - I will definitely be back.

I was brought into by Bask by a friend who raved about the "Air Brush" tanning. Never been a fan of the Mystic or Spray tan and she promised this was SO much better. Upon arriving the owners are there to greet you, and make you feel like you are their only customer. No heavy pushes, just nice friendly conversation. I had the airbrush tan, which made me feel like a celebrity. All areas I was comfortable with exposing, were maticulously airbrushed by hand and I had a few places "accented" to hide a little celulite and define my calves..Then they offered me a free tan to try out the facilities. I was so impressed. Their prices are far more affordable when you realize the quality of beds, customer service (no teens chomping their gum, saying "last name" and talking on the phone), and the amount of service making sure your visit was the best. I had just bought a package elsewhere the week before, but I am sold the next time I need a new package. You get what you pay for in this salon AND the prices are MORE affordable than clubtan, or other salons I have been disappointed by. I support this company and will happily return! Oh, my airbrush tan lasted a solid 10 days!

The staff at Bask is very knowledgeable. Brant took the time to walk me to each room and described the performance of each "bed" in depth. He wasn't pushy, not at all a salesman. He offered a wealth of information and was very professional. I tried to the stand up bed, and was thrilled with the results after just two visits. I highly reccomend Bask!

Pros: Service, quality of tan.

Bask is great. Super nice staff, really good beds, a little expensive but totally worth it. My first time to bask I got to go in a high pressure bed and it only cost $10!

Pros: Nice Place and Staff

Cons: Expensive

Bask tanning is a cut above the rest! They have a first class salon.. The staff is exceptionally friendly and the beds are clean and comfortable. This has been my most positive and enjoyable experience yet and I HIGHLY reccommend them :-)
