Planet Beach franchise locations recognized in LOOKING FIT’s Top 250 included  outlets in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Carolina, New York, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Texas.

Honorees were selected based on a comprehensive survey and interviews designed to identify the most innovative, professional and fastest-growing salons in the industry.  Criteria ranged from the types of services offered, skin-typing of clients and average price per session to year-over-year growth, participation in certification programs, ongoing staff training and education, and various measures of commitment to customer service.

In addition to tanning services, Planet Beach offers facial rejuvenation, massage, and skin hydration treatments with automated equipment enabling clients to get pampered in privacy without the need for an attendant.

Clients at most locations have their choice of Luminous Facial treatments that combine light therapy with topical skincare products to improve skin tone and texture, full-body Aqua Massage treatments that ease aching muscles with pulsating water jets, and whole-body Hydro-Derma treatments that moisturize the skin as well as prolonging the life of a tan.  The company is currently in the process of adding a fourth spa service that forms a unique mist to diminish fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and brighten skin.

The LOOKING FIT 250 list for 2007 was published in the magazine’s February 15 issue.
