Tan Smart This Summer

Tan Smart This Summer

Tanning is a natural way to darken the skin, and many people feel more confident when they are less pale. While some tanners wait for the sunny summer months to acquire the tan that makes them feel the most secure, anyone can maintain the bronzed look year-round by utilizing tanning salon services.

What is Tanning?

Whether tanning indoors or outdoors, the melanocytes within the epidermis produce melanin that is absorbed by other skin cells. The melanin gets even darker when exposed to UVA light.

Skin cells are constantly rejuvenating themselves, and newer cells push up on the tanned ones after about a month of decreased exposure to both UVA and UVB light. Therefore, outdoor tanners quickly lose their summer glow as winter approaches.

Protection is Key

Ultraviolet protection is crucial whether the tan is being acquired indoors or outdoors. A sunblock should be used any time there is to be UV exposure. Depending on how deep the base tan is, the SPF necessary can vary for individuals. Indoor tanning facilities give clients access to seasoned professionals who can consult them toward the lotion that will be most effective for them.

UV Control

Strong UV rays can severely damage skin. Unfortunately for outdoor tanners, they have absolutely no control over the levels they are being exposed to. This can lead to serious sunburns. Indoor tanning facilities give the tanner the ability to adjust the UV levels, and a consultant is on staff to make sure those levels are appropriate.

Indoor Tanning Safety

Although the UV levels are controlled, there are still a few safety precautions that should be followed by the indoor tanner. The facility provides goggles, and it is important to wear them. Furthermore, the lips do not tan, so a lip balm containing SPF provides added protection.

A beautiful, year-round tan is possible. To find out how you can start, visit your local Smart Tan certified tanning salon for more information or to visit smarttan.com.

Tanning Truths

How Skin Tans

tropicaltanjoplin

How Skin Tans

Dark, glowing skin has an undeniable allure. The secret to beautiful bronzed skin is within our own skin cells, waiting to beunlocked by natural or artificial sunlight.

What Exactly Is A Tan?

Tanning is your body’s method of increasing your natural protection against sun exposure. It is caused by your skin being flooded with melanin, the pigment that gives color to your skin, eyes and hair. The uppermost layer of your skin, called the epidermis, contains specialized cells called melanocytes. Melanocytes react to UVB exposure and produce pinkish melanin. UVA rays then react with melanin, turning it darker.

Getting A Beautiful Tan

A gorgeous tan relies on exposure to UVA and UVB light. Both summer sun and tanning beds contain about 95% UVA and 5% UVB wavelengths. Tanning beds, however, provide more consistent exposure and much stronger concentrations of light. This lets you tan quickly and evenly. Prepping your skin for tanning can help you achieve the color and glow you desire.

Avoiding Sunburn

A sunburn is the result of your skin being damaged by overexposure to UV light. The red color is caused by blood rushing to the surface of your skin to help repair it. Tanning beds make it easy to control the intensity of light you are exposed to and for how long you are exposed. This can help you avoid burning.

Prolonging Your Tan

It takes about a month for your body to shed and regrow new skin, taking your tan with it. However, if your skin is dry and unhealthy, it will shed more quickly. Keeping your skin hydrated is key for prolonging the life your tan. Moisturize your skin and drink plenty of water.

For an even, long-lasting tan, take a trip to your local Smart Tan certified tanning salon. Not only will tanning beds give you consistent results, the salon technicians can help you prep and hydrate your skin to maintain the tan you want.

Tanning can offer a person many benefits, especially in climates where the rain is ample or the days are short for long periods of the year. In order to optimally take advantage of the benefits that tanning can offer a person, the facilities chosen should staff employees that are adequately trained to help a client gain the most out of their tanning experience.

One way salons are able to make this happen is through the Smart Tan certification process for their employees. This process teaches providers sanitation standards in addition to the proper tanning procedures to help keep clients from becoming burned on their skin or eyes.

These high standards ensure that operators are able to educate their clients on the proper method of tanning for the absolute best results possible. This certification is not only a big deal for the salon or facility, but should be equally important to the tanner as well. Knowing that you are tanning properly and with adequately trained staff will put your mind at ease and allow you to enjoy the experience. Our salon is the only one in the area that has obtained this certification and proudly stands behind the quality expectations that it carries along with it.
