What You Need to Know About Tan Times

by Victoria - 21. May, 2013 08:00

So you’ve been tanning somewhere else and are new to Sun Tan City or you haven’t tanned with us in a while. You come in, and the Tanning Consultant tells you that you cannot tan for an extended amount of time. It’s natural to feel a bit frustrated, but try to remember that we’re regulating your time for your protection.

Protecting my friends from overexposure to ensure they have the ultimate tanning experience is one of the most important aspects of our friendship. To do that, our expert Tanning Consultants set limits on your tan times. I know that sometimes upsets you, but I promise this is for your protection.

As you know, you should gradually build up your time in our sunbeds in small increments – one to two minutes at a time. We base your tan time on skin tone and carefully test your susceptibility to burning. Once we know that, we go with the suggested times for your skin.

The biggest rule I have for all of my friends is that you do not tan more than one time per day in our sunbeds or sunless booths. If you disagree with me, there is nothing I can do. This is a strict rule, and I won’t allow anyone to bend it. It’s tough love, my friends. But again, these rules are in place for your protection.

I appreciate your understanding of these rules when your Tanning Consultant makes the best decisions for your unique – and beautiful – skin!

Build Your Base Tan Before Summer!

by Victoria - 16. May, 2013 08:00

If you’re planning on getting any sun this year at the beach or pool, you’ll want to build a base tan to help prep your skin for the summer months.

It may have been awhile since you last visited us. If so, be sure to update any of your contact info so you can get back into the E-Club! Why? I’ll send you exclusive updates for our promotions that will help get you a bit more bang for your buck!

After you update your info, be sure to discuss what your tanning goals are with your expert Tanning Consultant. That way, they can determine when you need to have your base tan ready for action!  Also, tell them a bit about your lifestyle and budget so they can make some recommendations to match your tanning goals.

We will always recommend your exposure time to build gradually. For instance, our Fast level sunbed is typically 20 minutes. With this bed, we would recommend a very short tanning time. Shorter tanning times will help prevent burns and help us be sure your skin’s melanin develops properly. Another important reminder about tanning with us is you can only tan once every 24 hours.

Some tanning tips and tricks to follow throughout your tanning journey are to always exfoliate before your tanning session and always use one of our tan extenders after every sunbed visit. If you use a Sunless tanning booth, there are other guidelines to follow. Be sure to ask your Tanning Consultant for more details if you are interested in Sunless options.

Last but not least, always wear your eyewear. The FDA requires eye protection to be worn while utilizing any sunbed. We do sell temporary (one-time use) sticker eyewear or you can purchase goggles, which can be used multiple times.

If you have any additional questions about tanning at Sun Tan City, please be sure to send it to us by posting on our Facebook page or by tweeting us.

Mix Up Your Tanning Routine

by Victoria - 14. May, 2013 08:00

Ever feel like you’re in the same old routine, day after day? If you’re anything like me you love to change it up and tan in different sunbeds. When you do, you’re experiencing different levels of our sunbeds, which is great for your skin and helps you develop a deep, golden tan. Why? When you tan in different beds, you’ll be indulging in different light formulations, all of which have different benefits.

Our Fast level is our introductory sunbed. The lamps are high-quality and have been carefully selected to help you get a great tan. Many of the Fast sunbeds are used in 20-minute sessions, a tan time that allows you to have a long, relaxing tanning session.

Our Faster level is a slightly higher intensity sunbed, which is about two to three times better than the Fast level. This higher intensity makes sessions slightly shorter than those in the Fast sunbed. Overall, the Faster sunbed is a great option for a rich, even base tan with a reasonably faster turnaround time for results.

Our Fastest level sunbed is a fabulous way to get a deep base tan in four to seven sessions, depending upon your skin type. Another great feature is that the tan time in this sunbed is shorter than a Fast or Faster level bed. So, if you’re having a busy day but still want to get in and tan, this is a perfect option. The Fastest sunbed is equipped with several upscale features that include a high-pressure facial tanner, shoulder tanners and reflector lamps.

Our Instant level is our highest-intensity and highest-quality sunbed. Sessions can take up to 12 minutes, or less time if you choose. Tanners who use this bed can get a dark, natural base tan within two to three sessions, which makes it the absolute fastest way to get a natural, golden brown glow.

Finally, we have our Sunless tanning booths. These amazing tanning booths can give you a glow that can last four to seven days within a matter of minutes. Some of our salon locations include VersaSpa and MyMyst tanning booths. Be sure to check with your favorite Sun Tan City tanning salon for details on their Sunless booths.

Mixing up your sunbed routine will give you the results you want in a short—or extended—amount of time. Speak with your expert Tanning Consultant today, and make sure to tell them what levels you believe will fit your lifestyle, budget and tanning goals so they can assist you in the proper sunbed plan.

Tanning Gift Cards for Mother’s Day

by Victoria - 9. May, 2013 08:00

Need a gift for Mother’s Day? Sun Tan City Gift Cards are Easy and Affordable!

You only have 3 more days to find her a present. If you don’t already have something for her, give her the gift of tan! The number one reason a lot of moms tan with us is because they want to escape, relax, and have their “me” time in a tanning salon and spa-like atmosphere.

She’ll not only appreciate your gift, but she’ll be happy you took the time to think of a gift that helps her relax while looking and feeling great! Our tanning gift cards are awesome gifts by themselves, or they are the perfect to give with one of our OPI nail polishes or any of our tanning lotions, body washes and tan extenders.

We know it’s silly to think that you’re actually giving someone confidence when you give her a Sun Tan City gift card. But we also know it’s the truth.

Give the gift of beauty and relaxation this year.
