UV Tanning
Always remember the safest way to tan is every other day and never exceeding once in a 24 hour period.
Our three levels of UV tanning include:
Our Bronze level features 15 minute beds that provide a slow and gradual tan.
The Silver Level features 15 minute turbo beds that have dedicated facial bulbs. These beds are approximately twice as strong as our bronze level beds.
Our Gold Level features our Ergoline 950 bed. This bed provides quick results and can boost your tan to the next level.
So How does the skin Tan?
Skin tans when it is exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light. Common sources of UV are the sun and a tanning bed. The tanning process itself occurs in two phases. First is the darkening of the skin which begins during UV exposure, and is immediately visible. The second phase is most obvious in people who already have a darker skin type or a base tan. This is delayed tanning and is requires both UVA and UVB rays, UVB is primarily responsible for visible effects 72 hours after exposure.
And here's an Indoor tanning tip
You should always use a good quality indoor tanning lotion. It will help your skin absorb the UV light. There are also special ingredients that stimulate melanin production, such as Tyrosine, which will give you the most out of every tanning session. And Your skin tends to dry out during the tanning process and if you don't use a good quality indoor tanning lotion, your skin will exfoliate faster, become more dry and flaky, and you will lose your tan faster.
So the bottom line: for a deeper, darker, longer lasting tan, you should use quality indoor tanning lotion. It's best to apply indoor tanning lotion immediately prior to your session or 1-2 hours prior is even better if you can. Applying it ahead of time allows your skin to absorb the lotion better so you will get the best results from your tanning session.
