Franklin has a square, a river, a factory full of shops, and more spray options than most Middle Tennessee towns. Some of those options are studios. Some are chains. Toasted Tans is the tent that comes to you. This guide is for people who searched Franklin because they live off Hillsboro, Columbia Avenue, or Mack Hatcher and do not want another Cool Springs parking job before photos on Main Street.
Downtown versus Cool Springs. If your life is Fourth Avenue, the square, Pinkerton Park, Fieldstone Farms, Westhaven, or Hillsboro Road, use the Franklin city page and this guide. If your mail says 37067, Carothers, McEwen, Mallory Lane, or you can see the Galleria from the balcony, use the Cool Springs page. Same Evie. Same prices. Google likes a clean slug. Your driveway cares which turn we take off I-65.
What the appointment is. Private Norvell tent. Custom mix. Classic 8 to 12 hours or rapid 1 to 3. Weekday singles before 6 PM $65, rapid $75, premium $80.

No tanning bed. No storefront on Main.
Wedding and Pilgrimage math. Franklin weekends fill. Book before the square is already a construction of white dresses. Classic 48 to 72 hours before portraits if you can. Rapid if the rehearsal dinner moved. We have set up in suites near the historic district and in garages a few streets off the Harpeth. Tell us about white carpet and HOA rules. The tent is the room. Your hallway is not.
Prep is the same PDF we send in Columbia. Exfoliate the night before. Skip lotion, deodorant, makeup. Dark loose clothes after. Franklin humidity and a long dinner on Main will still fade you if you scrub at midnight. Moisturize. Shorter showers. Skip the hotel pool in Cool Springs the night before pictures. 7 to 10 days is the usual life with decent aftercare.
Franklin is crowded on purpose. Other people tan here. Some of them are good. We do not invent a ranking. We do not paste awards on this page. The offer is mobile at the published price with a mix matched to your skin. If you want a chair in a studio, book a studio. If you want the tent at a house off Hillsboro, text 931-350-0826. Instagram toastedtans931. Email ToastedTans931@gmail.com.
Groups. Bridal parties, pageants, homecoming, the office that insists on looking even at a Saturday event. Stack them. One driveway. One mix family. Flash photography on the square is the test. Mismatched legs fail it. Send the prep PDF to the group chat. Count heads before you text so we bring enough time. Two-hour slot on the 5+ bridal line.
How to book without a mystery calendar. Call, text, or the form. Say Franklin, the cross street, classic or rapid, and the event. If you are actually Brentwood on Concord, use that page. If you are Leiper’s Fork on Old Hillsboro, use that one. Maury and Williamson only. Columbia is home base. No street address to pin. We will pop the tent, toast you, and let you walk Main looking like you went somewhere with a beach.
Factory photos, Harpeth walks, and a Friday on the square all look better when the mix is even. If your party is split between Westhaven and Cool Springs, pick one driveway. If you are actually in Brentwood on Concord Road, use that city page. Franklin is busy. The tent still fits in a garage off Hillsboro. Text the window and we will say yes or full.
