Is protective eyewear recommended during tanning sessions?
It’s not recommended – it’s demanded! You must wear goggles that protect against 99% of UVA rays and 99.9% of UVB rays…and it’s a super smart idea. This specially formulated lens protects your sensitive eye tissue from exposure. Too much exposure could lead to permanent damage to your vision. Serious consequences include cornea burns or degeneration, loss of color vision, loss of vision at night, or even cataracts.

So, whether you purchase a pair for multiple use, or just use the temps we provide on-site, goggles should always be in your tanning repertoire.

Until next time, feel free to send us a note on Facebook or talk to your local tanning consultant directly. We’re always available to help a client in need!

At Sun Tan City, you can get a great tan any time of year, so you need to know how to tan in order to maximize your experience! Here are some thought-starters…

- Pick the appropriate apparel to wear during your visit. If you have a lot of halter-tops or strapless tops, then you want to avoid straps in the wrong spots.

- Wear approved protective eye wear during every visit. State and federal regulations require that every time you tan, you wear eye wear that protects against 99% of UVA rays and 99.9% of UVB rays. We offer temporary and multi-use goggles at every Sun Tan City location.

- Tan in a bed that is right for you! Any of our tanning consultants can gauge your skin type and recommend a length of tanning session and appropriate tanning bed that will be the best choice for you.

- Use approved lotions for tanning. Outdoor tanning lotions are not OK in the beds, so ask one of our expertly trained tanning consultants to guide you through our products and explain how they can help your tanning experience.

And lastly, ask questions! We are always here to help and guide you through the process. Tanning is our passion and we love to talk about it!!

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!

First up this month – Can you tan if you are pregnant?

It is best to talk to your OBGYN directly to discuss what he or she thinks is the best option for you and your baby. At Sun Tan City we work hard to develop a clean, safe and knowledgeable environment for our clients. We’re happy to work with you to develop a safe and comfortable tanning solution during your pregnancy!

We’ll be bringing you new Q & A’s monthly, but in the meantime, feel free to send us a note on Facebook or talk to your local tanning consultant directly. We’re always available to help a client in need!

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!
