Open for Business

Angye Sawyer and Julie Brandt opened Downtown Tans and Oxygen Bar on Feb. 7 at 431 S. Jefferson Ave., Ste. 124. They operate eight tanning beds and an air-brush tanning room, and they sell 90 percent pure oxygen in 24 aromas. Sawyer said the oxygen speeds up metabolism, heightens concentration and increases tanning efficiency by 20 percent through greater melanin production. Patrons breathe oxygen through tubes inserted in their noses. Monthly tanning memberships start at $20. A 20-minute oxygen session is $9. Hours: 10 a.m.–10 p.m. Monday through Saturday and noon–6 p.m. Sunday. Phone: (417) 832-8267.
