How do you tan safely?

Knowing your skin type and limiting your sun exposure time is key to tanning safely.

The very benefit of using a tanning facility is that we are able to deliver what we call a smart tan. Going to a tanning salon enables the person with that fair skin type to gradually build up their exposure in a non-burning fashion. That is, in a way that's simply unlikely outdoors because of all if the variables involved in outdoor tanning. Outdoor tanning delivers an experience that changes every day and every month, it's a little bit different. It's difficult to go outdoors and know how much light you can get without burning. Indoors, we understand based on your skin type exactly how much ultraviolet light you should be receiving in each subsequent session. You slowly build up your tan and tanning is the body's natural protection against sunburn. It is what your body is designed to do to prevent sunburn and help you maximize the benefits of getting sun exposure and then minimizing the risks.
