The sun’s rays, (UVA and UVB rays) damage your skin. This leads to early wrinkles, and other skin problems. Being in the sun over time, even if you don’t burn, can lead to skin cancer. Tanning booths use ultraviolet rays. Makers of the booths may claim that they use “harmless” UVA rays, but both UVA and UVB rays cause skin damage. While UVA rays take longer than UVB rays to damage the skin, they go deeper into the skin than UVB rays.

We offer a wide range of tans to suit our clients requirements, Sun FX, St.Tropez, Fantasy Tan and more in their full range of shades.

SOME HINTS & TIPS FOR YOUR TAN
Pre Tan Preperation
For the healthiest tan, start with the healthiest skin.
- Exfoliate your skin the night before. This promotes an even coverage and lengthens the duration of you tan by removing dead skin that would otherwise flake off.
- Do not injure the skin by overdoing it.
- Wax or shave a minimum of 24 hours before your tanning appointment.
- Remove or avoid moisturizer and deoderant as these act as barriers and can alter the process from working properly.
- Wear dark, loose fitting clothing and undergarments to your tanning appointment. The cosmetic bronzer may rub off on clothing, it will wash out of most fabrics, but may stain nylons, lycra and silks.
Maintaining Your Tan
For the most beautiful longest lasting tan – develop a healthy skin regimen.
- Wait at least 8 to 12 hours after your tanning session before washing.
- Apply moisturizer morning and evening after your post tan shower. Avoid moisturizers with DHA’S (alpha hydroxy acid) because they promote exfoliation.
- Avoid long, hot showers and baths, and scrubbing the skin. If you use a wash cloth when bathing, choose one that is as soft as possible. Execssive friction on the skin may fade your tan prematurely.
- Chlorine in swimming pools and hot tubs can remove or shorten the longeivity of your tan.
- Take care when excercising as friction and excess sweat may cause your tan to fade prematurely or unevenly.
