Facts & QuestionsAn estimated 30 million North Americans used tanning salons in 2006 as a smart and controlled alternative to outdoor tanning. Studies consistently have shown that once indoor tanning customers begin tanning in a professional salon, they are less likely to sunburn than they were before they started tanning. Studies have also shown that indoor tanners are less likely to sunburn outdoors as compared to non-tanners. (The International Smart Tan Network, 2006.) The question arises then as to how much sun exposure is good for each individual. That’s where our knowledgeable tanning experts can counsel you on your tanning needs. Although some people may see a skin tone change after only one or two sessions, most people need 6 - 10 sessions to develop a nice golden tan. It is recommended that you start tanning every other day, or possibly 4 days per week. After you have a good base tan, a couple of tanning sessions per week will have you looking good with a glowing deep tan throughout the year.
Does tanning indoors have the same effect as tanning outdoors? YES!, ONLY BETTER!! The advantage to indoor tanning is “control”. You can’t know the strength of the suns rays when tanning outdoors, but indoor tanning at Tan Aloha offers a controlled UV exposure so that you’ll have a healthy looking tan without burning. Being outside in the sun long enough to burn is very damaging to your skin. Developing your tan indoors is much safer, more even, and will help to protect you if you are out in the sun. Is indoor tanning SMART? YES! For individuals who can tan, this is a smart way to maximize your tanning color while minimizing the risks of sunburn. Our tanning experts will offer tips for timing and lotions so that your skin will stay healthy longer. In addition, tanning is a great NATURAL way to get the amount of vitamin D you need to stay healthy on the inside! If you are unable to tan outside, you’ll not get a tan from our tanning beds either. Take the time to learn to tan SMART! What is all the new information about VITAMIN D? EDUCATION about sun tanning, Vitamin D, and Sun Screens is more important than ever. Various governments are doing lots of jawboning about what’s good and not good about tanning. NOT being in the sun is now found to have serious negative side effects. Controlled and responsible tanning is a terrific answer for those who want to be healthy. If you have any questions about tanning, please send us an email.
