Meet Team Tan

Alli Parks 
​Proprietress

In the Spring of 2011, with only a hammer and a dream, Alli Parks transformed an itty-bitty 216 square foot office suite into The Painted Lady.  Located in Saint Helena, CA, the first Painted Lady contained only a desk, a Mystic Tan booth, and a couple of free restaurant benches that she found on the side of the road.  Miss Parks used to lock herself in the Mystic Tan booth and sob due to lack of clients, money, or hope of any kind.  Miss Parks often reflects on these hideous times while wistfully gazing out the window of The Painted Lady's G6.  But then the flight attendant arrives with a frosty glass of Dom Pérignon and an exquisite cheese plate causing Miss Parks to quickly forget about her struggles of yesteryear.  These days Miss Parks' business thrives at it's expansive, shimmering pink palace at 1643 Jefferson Street.  When she's not painting the town bronze, Miss Parks enjoys champagne, lounging, remodeling her luxurious penthouse and instagramming her cat/soulmate, Francine. 

Michaela Daw
Lieutenant Tan 

Youwza!  Watch out for this one!  Meet Michaela, also known as "Seacrest" due to her superhuman number of jobs and activities.  Besides boasting the highly prestigious title of Lieutenant Tan at The Painted Lady, she is a Hairstylist at Pamela Dawson & Co, an Esthetician at The Marriott Reserve Spa, and she’s currently enrolled in nursing school.  Do you feel like a loser, just reading that?  Wait, there’s more!  She also competes in triathlons and is a loving mother to two beautiful kitties, Pickles and Ash.  Come see this bronzing beauty Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at The Painted Lady or summon her to your home for a mobile airbrush tan.

Kateyln Young

Stephanie Azevedo
Massage Therapist &
​Junior Tanning Associate

I knew from the time I was a child that I wanted to be a massage therapist. I would massage my mom's feet after a hard days work and see how relieved and gratified she would be. I graduated from National Holistic Institute in Emeryville in 2011 and have been working full time as a massage therapist since. I specialize in a relaxing, therapeutic Swedish massage and find that a lot of my clients benefit from the soothing warmth of my hot stone therapy. My naturally warm hands will enhance the relaxation you deserve.

​Julie Deuker
​Massage Therapist

As a Napa native, I enjoy living and working in the beautiful Napa Valley! Massage is a wonderful way for the body to heal itself! Mind, body and soul feel rejuvenated, ridding the body of the toxins and increasing circulation. Making massage affordable is so important to me. No contracts or commitments, just therapeutic massage when you want it. Come in and let us pamper you!  When I'm not spreading joy and relaxation at The Painted Lady,  I like to spend time with my two sons, my boyfriend Steve, and my new puppy!
