Services » Sunbeds

Tanning within a salon is far safer than both home use sunbeds & outdoor tanning in natural sunlight because in a Tanning Salon the usage is controlled.

Tanning Salon operators can advise on skin types & ensure that the client does NOT OVER EXPOSE THEMSELVES

Persons with sensitive skin or no existing tan should restrict their first few sessions to a maximum of 3-6 minutes, in our opinion nobody should ever exceed 12 minutes. Never repeat UVA if any signs of redness remain from previous sunbathing.

Know your skin

Most skin cancers are completely curable if detected in the early stages. Look for progressively changing moles or other skin discolouration. If you have any doubts, consult your doctor. Don't delay. There are other benefits from using Sunbeds in a salon Apart from the obvious cosmetic reasons that people use sunbeds/ natural sunlight, there are also other benefits.

VITAMIN D

Vitamin D is essential for good health and sunlight is the most effective way for the body to manufacture vitamin D. Yet in the UK, this is only possible during the months of May to October. Out side these months, the sun is simply not strong enough.

Sunbeds offer an alternative to natural sunlight for stimulating the production of Vitamin D. By using a tanning salon your sessions are controlled by the operator/salon owner. Home use sunbeds allow users to overexpose themselves.

Natural sunlight allows sunbather to overexpose themselves not just because of the period of time they spend in the sun but also because the amount of UVA/UVB is unknown due to time of day, clouds, etc.
