FALL ~ As summer fades, don't let your tan fade with it; hang onto your tan with our simple, inexpensive maintenance program.
WINTER ~ Escape the "winter blues" with a mini vacation tanning session and enjoy a beautiful tan even in the winter. You'll look and feel fantastic!
What is the tanning process?
UVB stimulates the melanocyte cells in the skin to produce melanin ( a pigment) which is then oxidized by UVA, turning it brown. As the outer layer of skin sheds, cells are lost and your tan will fade. Therefore, to maintain a tan requires continued exposure to ultraviolet light. The degree of coloring depends on the amount of melanin you have, your individual reaction to ultraviolet light and the length of exposure.
What are the different sun rays?
The sun emits three kinds of non-visible ultraviolet light: UVA, UVB, and UVC. UVC is the shortest, most harmful light but is primarily stopped by the earth's ozone layer. UVB is the medium wavelength of light and is necessary to trigger the tanning process, but too much UVB may cause sunburn. UVA is the longest wavelength and is responsible for the oxidation of melanin in the skin which leads to a suntan.
Are indoor and outdoor tans the same?
Just like natural sunlight, an indoor tanning system produces ultraviolet rays. The difference is that only UVA and diminished UVB ray are emitted and no UVC. Other factors of outdoor tanning such as; time of day and year, altitude cloud coverage, pollution, reflective surface, etc. can radically change proper exposure times outdoors. The tannin process is the same indoors, however, there is definitely more exposure control.
How long will it take to get a tan?
Many skin types will show color change after the second or third. Most can achieve a beautiful tan after 8 - 10 sessions. After that, only one or two times per week will maintain your golden tan indefinitely.
What are indoor tanning lotions?
Indoor tanning lotions are scientifically designed for a tanner's skin. They are formulated to work with your melanin, speeding up the tanning process and creating a natural deep tan. All tanning lotions are divided into a 3 step system and are exclusive to tanning salons.
