In this sizzling series premiere, go behind the scenes at Sunset Tan, one of L.A.'s most successful tanning salons, as they cater to the who's who of Hollywood, including Britney Spears, who stops by for a quick touchup. But not everyone is used to the glitz and glamour the salon has to offer, especially Erin, an import from Oklahoma who is trying hard to adjust to her new life in Hollywood. But can this small-town girl cut it among seasoned staff members like Nick and Janelle? Or will she end up getting burned? Meanwhile, Nick is fed up with his regional manager Lisa, who always seems to be M.I.A. when he needs her. After a company meeting, Lisa decides to leave the company and Roxanne takes over her position. But her relationship with Nick is rocky at best, and soon these two are butting heads. Who will come out on top?
Due to the salon's exponential growth over the last five years, co-founders Devin and Jeff have decided to open a new salon in Sin City, and it has all the managers clamoring for that coveted top spot. But as the competition heats up, Nick, who's currently the top salesman in L.A., finds out that Las Vegas is proving itself to be an entirely different beast. Does he have what it takes to become the Sin City salon manager? Meanwhile, back home, Janelle heads for Miami, dumping all of her leftover work on Erin, which doesn't make the owners too happy.
Tired of all the stresses of the salon, Erin decides it's time to head back to her hometown for a much-needed vacation to visit her father and to get closure on her relationship with her ex-boyfriend, whom she still has feelings for. But things don't go as planned and Erin discovers that he's already engaged to another girl. How will she handle the heartbreak? Meanwhile, a Mystic Tan machine breaks as Nick's salon, costing him a lot of money in commissions--and possibly his shot at managing the new Sin City salon.
Time is running out, and Jeff and Devin are busy finalizing all the details for the new Las Vegas salon. But are they any closer to narrowing down the stiff competition? Meanwhile, the official casting occurs for Miss Sunset Tan 2007. Which bronzed beauty has what it takes to win the crown? See what the Olly Girls have planned to steal the show! Also, Keeley is starting to get frustrated with Roxanne's managerial skills.
The competition between the Sunset staffers heat up as Jeff and Devin take the all (sans the Olly Girls) to Las Vegas to see who would be the best fit. However, not ones to be left out, Holly and Molly cook up a plan to get themselves to the Strip. After a good day of sales, the girls pack up the shop a few hours early and make their way to Sin City--all on the company dime! But not everyone is happy to see the Ollys, especially Jeff and Devin who are fuming that the girls could make such a stupid and costly mistake. Will they end up getting the boot? Meanwhile, tempers flare when the managers weigh in on who should (and shouldn't be) the new manager of the new Sin City salon.
The winner of Miss Sunset Tan is finally revealed, along with the new Las Vegas manager. Who will head up the new Sin City digs? And how will the other staffers react? Plus, Erin tries to figure out if she wants to stay in L.A. and Nick decides if he will continue on at Sunset Tan.
