Tanning Q & A

What is a Sun Capsule?

Stand and tan comfortably in our Sun Capsule VHR Euro Series tanning bed. Standing up allows you to completely eliminate any tanning lines on the sides of your body and any other hard to reach areas.

How long does a session last?

Tanning sessions typically last between 5 and 12 minutes, depending on your skin type. Our staff can help assess your skin type and recommend the ideal exposure time and tanning schedule to minimize the risk of overexposure.

How often should I tan?

For the best results and to protect your skin, we recommend waiting at least 48 hours between sessions. It’s important to follow safe tanning practices and limit overall UV exposure to maintain healthy, glowing skin. 

Is it tanning safe?

Like all UV tanning, using a tanning bed carries some risks. Overexposure to UV rays can contribute to premature aging and increase the risk of skin damage. However, when used responsibly—by following recommended exposure times, spacing out sessions, and wearing protective eyewear—it can be a safer way to achieve a natural glow. Our staff is here to help you tan safely and responsibly.

What should I wear during my tanning session?

Most people choose to wear minimal clothing, such as a swimsuit or underwear to avoid unwanted tan lines. Since the room is completely private, you’re welcome to wear whatever you feel most comfortable in—whether that’s more or less.

Do I have to wear eye protection?

Yes, it is mandatory to wear protective eyewear during your tanning session to safeguard your eyes from potential damage. UV light can cause serious long-term effects, including cataracts, corneal burns, and even blindness. We have both disposable and reusable eye protection for purchase to ensure your safety.

Can I use tanning lotion?

Yes, we highly recommend using a tanning lotion before your session to enhance and deepen your tan. We offer a variety of high-quality products designed to optimize your results and give you the most even, natural-looking glow. We have a wide selection of different products to help you achieve the best results possible.

Can I tan my face?

Yes, you can tan your face during a session. However, to protect your skin, most people choose to cover their face with a towel or apply a facial SPF to prevent overexposure to UV rays. This can help minimize the risk of premature aging or skin damage.

How do I maintain my tan?

To maintain your tan, it is important to keep your skin moisturized and avoid exfoliating too frequently. We suggest using a special tanning lotion to help extend the life of your tan.
