Macomb Township residents will soon have a chance to capture a suntan without traveling to the tropics. They'll also be able to enjoy a massage in the process. 

Tiki Tan & Massage will open Dec. 22 at 21481 21 Mile, just west of Card Road. The business is located in the former Electric Tan site near Kroger. 

Owner Craig Tullio's brother, Chris, currently operates Tiki Tan & Massage in Shelby Township. Craig, a Macomb Township resident, decided to move Tiki Tan to his hometown. 

He remodeled Electric Tan and hopes customers will enjoy the new location. "I am excited about the changes and the new equipment," he said. 

The business offers all levels of tanning, two forms of spray tans, and massages, including Swedish and deep-tissue. Special packages are available for bridal parties, corporate functions and couples. 

Tullio will honor gift certificates, packages, etc. purchased in Shelby Township at the new site. 

In July, Patch readers picked Tiki Tan & Massage as their favorite tanning salon in the 2012 Readers Choice awards. The business received 62 percent of the 48 votes cast. Patch reader Marianne Wojcik said that Tiki Tan is “Best place around... clean, great bulbs etc.... LOVE TIKI TAN!”
