Classic Tan

@Bridget....I must say your opinion of tanning salons is very harsh, however the marketing dept for said salon had certainly done it's job! Not only do you remember the ad, can quote some of them, but you remember what the business is. Then took measures to look up every location and post them. It seems you put a lot of energy into this, why don't you just change the radio station you awake to? Maybe some classical, soft music would give you a more calm approach to the day. :) more

Okay I have never tanned in my life. I think the idea of paying someone to potentially give you skin cancer is ridiculous. But tanning salons exist and people actually seem to use them. Classic Tan is a chain of tanning salons in the Champaign-Urbana area. The addresses and numbers are below. I have no idea what they are actually like on the inside, this review is just to complain about their horrible advertising campaign. They have produced a number of radio ads each about 5 minutes long where they talk to supposed customers about why they tan. They are played in the morning on my radio station, so I have to wake up and listen to someone who dislikes their pasty white skin, usually every 20 minutes. Or how tanning helps seasonal depression disorder, and doesn't cause skin cancer, and how tanning three times a week is perfectly reasonable. But the worst ad is the most recent with some middle-aged woman talking about how brown fat is better looking than white fat, like she was a turkey or something. I would never consider paying for a tan anyway, but these ads make me want to picket their salons and encourage others to tan at less annoying establishments. Please tell anyone you know who works at Classic Tan that this campaign is the worst idea ever. Classic Tan 114 N. Vine - Ste. Q Urbana , IL 61802 (217) 367-3707 Classic Tan 1733 W.
