Question 1

What are the differences between your UV tanning bed/booths?

Accepted Answer

Our KBL is our laydown bed offering top of the line tanning. This is a combination tanning bed providing both UV and red light therapy. There are 3 settings when it comes to UV. Basic, Caribbean, and Mediterranean. Most of our customers will first start off using the Caribbean setting as this feature allows your skin to produce melanin and build your base tan. The Mediterranean setting is to help deepen and darken your tan, as well as lock in the base tan you already have developed. Basic is most like the UV in our stand up booths. Red light therapy is known to help inflammation in your body, combat aging, and more. The bed also contains some other fun features as well!

When it comes to our stand up booths, we offer a few different levels. The Ultra is our highest, followed by the 60, and then the 54. The difference between these three is the wattage in the bulbs. The higher the wattage the faster you tan. We also have one high pressure stand up that falls within the same package and line of pricing as the Ultra. The high pressure contains more UVA which hits a deeper level of your skin allowing you to deepen and darken your tan. We usually recommend this booth once you establish a base tan.

Question 2

How often can I use the tanning booth?

Accepted Answer

You may tan once during a 24 hour period per the FDA regulations. For example if you tan at 2pm on Wednesday, you cannot come tan again until 2pm on the next day, Thursday.

Question 3

Do I need to use eyewear?

Accepted Answer

YES! Eyewear is required when tanning in a UV booth/bed. UV light can penetrate the skin on your eyelids causing damage. It is not sufficient to simply close your eyes when tanning. Same concept as wearing sunglasses when you're outdoors.

Question 4

Why should I use lotion?

Accepted Answer

Using tanning lotion not only enhances your tan, but it also provides nutrients for your skin. We like to keep inventory of tanning lotions that contain top of the line skin ingredients to help with anti-aging, color correcting, hydration, and more. Keeping your skin moisturized is key to maintaining a longer lasting tan.

Question 5

How many minutes can I tan for?

Accepted Answer

If it is your first time indoor tanning or you haven't tanned in a while, we recommend starting at half the time or based on your skin type per the Fitzpatrick Scale. After that, we recommend increasing your time by 1-2 minutes as long as your skin is not burning.

**If you believe you can tan for the full time and it is your first time tanning with us or you haven't been tanning in a while, you may sign a Full Time Request waiver to bypass our recommendations.

Question 6

How old can I be to tan?

Accepted Answer

The FDA law requires a person to be at least 17 years old to UV tan. Those who are 17 will need a parent or guardians permission and signature at their first visit.

Question 7

How do tanning memberships work?

Accepted Answer

Tanning memberships are the most cost effective for those who tan regularly! Our tanning memberships require 3 full monthly payments (HT to Go requires 6 full months) . After you fulfil the the required payments, you may cancel at any time as long as it is before the 25th of the month.

For example, if you sign up on January 12th you will be pro-rated for the rest of the month. Your 3 payments will then be February, March, and April. You will be debited on the 1st of each month. If you decide you do not want to continue tanning after April, you will need to cancel by April 25th. However, if you did want to continue to tan after your 3 months, you may keep your membership rolling as long as you like!

**Please keep in mind, if your credit card is declined on the 1st of the month for whatever reason, you will be assessed a $25 decline fee due to the charges the salon will incur. You may change the card that we have on file on your account at any time.

**As stated above, HT to Go memberships require 6 full payments.

Question 8

When do I need to cancel my membership?

Accepted Answer

After you fulfill 3 or 6 payments depending on your membership type, you are eligible to cancel by the 25th of your third or sixth month. If you are continuing past month 3 or 6, it is by the 25th of each month there after.
