Hey guys…
Wow!! We’ve been open for 2 ½ years now, where has the time gone?! We have loved every minute of it and appreciate all of your custom and support.
We’ve certainly learnt a lot about tanning, sun beds and lotions, mainly because of feedback from our awesome customers as well as attending some pretty cool Tanning Seminars held around the country, they’ve proved to be very helpful! We have a full understanding of which lotion is best for each skin type, various individual results required, benefits to your skin (antiaging, skin firming etc.) right down to the right smell! Have you tried a lotion? If not, why not?! They are so beneficial for gaining a gorgeous glow! Sunbed Tanning Lotions speed up the process…in fact, it gets to work as soon as you’ve applied it, before you even get in the sunbed it’s working hard on boosting your melanin (the tanning pigment!) so, if you’re only having 3 minutes on a sunbed, your lotion will make it seem a lot longer! We have so many to choose from too, ask a Spa Coordinator for the best one for you, try a sachet to begin with…now there’s no excuse…get a lotion!
Our team can advise you on how many minutes you should have to get the perfect result ensuring the information provided is tailored to suit every individuals needs. Your safety is our priority so we provide a Tanning Guide leaflet with contraindications, so pick one up if you haven’t already. There are lots of DO’S and DON’TS and BEFORE, DURING & AFTER tips. There is also Skin Type information so if you’re unsure on your skin type, you can find it in the leaflet.
We have learned that sunbeds are pretty much the same and do the same job…we just have no gimmicks and like to keep it real and simple. However, we will never slack in luxury…just press start and enjoy 🙂
On the rare occasion we get asked a few questions, or a few concerns are raised. We love getting questions, we love to research so if we don’t know the answer to your query, you can be darn sure we’ll find out! We love hearing your feedback too so keep it all coming!
Our staff have recently come across a Myth Busting Guide from The Sunbed Association, very interesting! We’d like to share some with you here and we will also have a poster up for all to see, plus leaflets if you want to take it home and show the sceptics!
Here is a little sneak peek at our findings…
Myth 1
Sunbeds cause melanoma.
Myth Busted
There is NO evidence that moderate use of a commercial sunbed will increase your risk of melanoma. This has actually been carefully and scientifically reviewed and found to have significant flaws!
Myth 2
There’s no such thing as a safe tan.
Myth Busted
Tanning is the body’s natural reaction to gradual, moderate UV exposure.
Burning is an uncontrolled, over-exposure to UV and must be avoided.
Myth 3
Sunbeds are not a safe alternative to sunbathing.
Myth Busted
Under professional supervision, sunbeds provide a specific dose of UV in a controlled environment, avoiding the risk of burning. UV levels from the sun will vary significantly according to geographical location, time of year and time of day.
So…there’s just a few Myths Busted!!
Check out our poster in the Tanning Spa for further information and a few more busted myths. Or take home a leaflet!
