Top New FAQs from Sun Tan City – Is the Use of SPF Lotion Recommended?

by Victoria - 31. January, 2012 08:00

As we mentioned earlier this month, we will be bringing you new frequently asked tanning questions each month.

So without further a due, the second question for January – Is the use SPF lotion recommended?

Not necessarily. SPF tanning lotions are engineered to protect you from prolonged exposure to UV rays. At Sun Tan City, your exposure in our state-of-the-art tanning beds is controlled and minimal. Instead of SPF lotions, we recommend the use of our indoor tanning-specific lotions that promote skin moisture and help to prolong the life of your tan.

Remember, each month we’re looking to answer questions from our tanning clients just like you. If you have a specific question you’d like to have us answer publicly, please feel free respond to any of our blog posts or write your question to us on Facebook. That way, we can share the questions and our knowledge with others tanning connoisseurs just like you! And as always, feel free to talk to your local tanning consultant directly. We’re always available to help any of our clients in need!

Find Out Your Skin Type to Plan Your Tan

by Victoria - 19. January, 2012 08:00

Whether you are a seasoned tanning veteran or a newbie to the tanning lifestyle, it’s important to know what kind of skin you’re in. At Sun Tan City, our expert tanning consultants can help you develop a personal tanning plan that will maximize your time at the tanning salon and the life of your tan. In order to better assist you, we suggest taking a short quiz to better identify your skin type.

To take this foolproof quiz, visit our trusted friends at Be Bright. This site provides helpful resources as well as the Fitzpatrick Skin Type Chart, a very helpful skin quiz that can define what skin type you have, and determine the best type of tanning you could be doing at Sun Tan City.

Visit Be Bright to participate, and at the end, pay special attention to the numeric scale. It provides a range for each of the six skin-type categories. Bring in your total points and skin type to Sun Tan City, where our tanning consultants can recommend the appropriate tanning bed and tan time based on your skin sensitivity score.

We’re excited to start developing a tanning program with you! Stop by any of our 200+ tanning salon locations to get tanning!

And don’t forget, we’ll be at the Ramada Hotel on Bluegrass Parkway, Louisville, KY on Saturday, January 22 during the Special Occasions Bridal Show. Stop by and see us! We’d love to talk about your wedding and see how Sun Tan City can help make you the most beautiful bride!

Tanning Salon Consultant Tips – Skin Care

by Victoria - 17. January, 2012 08:00

We tan to look and feel our best, so why wouldn’t you go the extra mile to lengthen the life of your tan?! Here are some easy skin care tips that you can incorporate into your daily regime to help extend the life of your tan and that healthy, natural glow.

Moisturize! The process of tanning reduces the natural moisture levels in your skin, so using sun tan lotions before and after tanning is paramount. Sun Tan City is an exclusive carrier of the innovative Blend skin care line. Just ask your local Tanning Consultant to see which product is best for your skin type and the level of tanning you are doing.

Invest in a good face lotion, and use it! Your facial skin is the most sensitive and prone to wrinkles, blemishes and dryness. By keeping your face moisturized and clean of dirt and residue during the tanning process, you can help guarantee a healthy facial glow.

Drink plenty of fluids! Moisturizing your skin from the inside is equally as important as from the outside. The average recommended daily fluid intake is about 1.9 liters, which is roughly eight 8-ounce glasses. It’s a simple rule to remember – “8 x 8.” Just keep in mind water is best, but all fluids count towards the 1.9 liter goal.

Consider Sunless tanning! The VersaSpa and Mystic systems are the most sophisticated sunless tanning booths on the market, and at Sun Tan City you have cost effective access! For the rest of January, you can benefit from our Double Dip sunless tanning special. One UV tanning session and one sunless tanning session for only $49!

If you still have questions, our expert tanning consultants are always available for you at any of our tanning salon locations. Or, please feel free to reach out to us on Facebook and Twitter – we’re always available to chat up our favorite topic…tanning!

Which Tanning Bed Makes the Most Sense for Your Tanning Needs

by Victoria - 10. January, 2012 08:00

At Sun Tan City, the mission of our Tanning Consultants is to give you the results you want in the right amount of time. With five tanning beds to choose from and tanning experts on hand to pair your skin type with the right equipment and tanning lotions, you are sure to leave Sun Tan City feeling perfectly golden with a personal tanning plan that fits your tanning style.

In order to figure out which bed makes the most sense for you, it’s best to have a few questions outlined and answered before you head into Sun Tan City for the first time…

  1. What’s your budget? Sometimes, knowing what you are able or willing to spend on your tan will help us figure out an appropriate package deal. We want to ensure that you are maximizing the outcome of this important investment.
  2. What timeframe do you have for your tanning session? If you need to get in and out of our salon quickly vs. taking your time and having a spa-like experience, our tanning consultants will direct you to one bed over the other.
  3. How quickly do you want to see the results of your tanning session? Our tanning beds provide different levels of UVA and UVB rays, which translates to different types of tans. Some will take time to build and become apparent, while others are immediate. Depending on when you need to show off your glow, we can work with you to put you in the right bed!

This January we’re making it even easier to develop your perfect tanning formula! Take our Facebook “Which Bed Fits You” quiz as the first step to discover the tanning bed that fits your style. Then sign-up for Tour of The City and you can try each of our five tanning beds (Fast, Faster, Fastest, Instant and Sunless), to see which fits your tanning style and tanning needs. It’s a $9.99, 5-bed, 5-visit package worth over $100! This offer is valid for any Sun Tan City client, limit one per person, and visits expire 14-days after date of purchase.
