🩷FREE TAN for new customers Hot Chocolate has been established for over 20 years and is situated on the Carlton Centre in the North of Lincoln. All our tanning beds are serviced and maintain to the highest standard. We only use the very best 0.3 compliant tanning lamps in all our modern sunbeds to ensure our customers achieve maximum tanning results at all times. We provide a clean, friendly, professional tanning experience with free parking, 7 days a week. To achieve deeper, darker, longer lasting results we recommend that customers always use a tanning lotion before their session. It is essential for your skin to be moisturised before you tan otherwise your skin will reflect up to 60% of the UV light. We offer a wide range of tanning lotions to suit all skin types including tingle, bronzers, maximisers and accelerators. Our fully trained staff are happy to advise on a lotion to suit your skin type and requirements. We look forward to welcoming you to our salon!
⚡ SPOTLIGHT ON BED 4 ⚡
Our Dynamic Power standup ☀️
Prefer to stand while you tan? Here’s why Bed 4 could be your next choice 👇
☀️ Tanning from all around – lamps surround you during your session.
🙌 No lying-down pressure points – you aren’t resting your back or shoulders against an acrylic surface.
🧍 An upright tanning experience – ideal for customers who prefer a standup to a laydown.
✨ Freedom to adjust your position – follow the guidance in the room to position your arms and body during your session.
Ask for Room 4 on your next visit! Our team can help you choose suitable minutes for your skin type 💜

☀️ WHY DO WE LIMIT YOUR FIRST SESSION? ☀️
It’s all about your safety 🤍
When you first visit Hot Chocolate, we may limit the number of minutes you can tan for — even if you’re already an experienced sunbed user.
Every salon and every sunbed can be different, so your first session allows us to see how your skin responds to our tanning equipment and tubes before increasing your tanning time.
Think of it a little like having a patch test before certain beauty treatments — it’s a sensible precaution before going further.
Your first-session time is based on your skin type, and our team will advise you on a suitable tanning time when you register.
Please don’t be disappointed if we recommend fewer minutes than you normally use elsewhere. We’re not trying to restrict your tanning — we’re looking after your skin and putting your safety first. 💗
Tan responsibly. Tan safely.
