We have received several messages regarding the passing of Judy Wilson.
First, our thoughts and prayers are with Judy’s family and loved ones during this difficult time.
We would like to clarify that Judy Wilson was the owner of Tropical Tan in Neosho and was not affiliated with Tropical Tan Joplin. Tropical Tan Joplin remains locally owned and operated by the Graves family.
We appreciate everyone’s concern and ask that you keep Judy’s family in your prayers.

Did you know we have a 10-minute leg tanner called the Legacy? ☀️✨
Our Legacy Leg Tanner is designed specifically to target those hard-to-tan areas and help you achieve a deeper, more even glow on your legs in less time. The powerful high-performance bulbs focus on boosting color while helping improve the appearance of uneven skin tone for smoother-looking results.
Benefits of using the Legacy Leg Tanner:
• Faster, darker color development on legs
• Helps create a more even tan from top to bottom
• Great for stubborn areas that don’t tan as easily
• Quick 10-minute sessions fit easily into your schedule
• Perfect add-on to your regular tanning routine for that summer-ready glow
Whether you’re getting ready for vacation, shorts season, or just love having bronzed legs year-round, the Legacy can help take your tan to the next level! 🌴✨
