Tanning

The benefits of spray tanning

Spray tanning is the preferential tanning treatment in many beauty salons across the country, in part because of the lower cost and higher safety profile of the treatment. Some of the benefits of opting for a spray tan compared to a tanning bed or other alternatives include:

• No UV exposure means it’s safer than tanning beds
• Spray tans result in a natural look with no streaks
• They’re fast and the results are immediate
• You can choose exactly the shade of tan that you want
• If you want to boost your confidence, feel happier in a bikini, or just get your body beach-ready in time for summer, a spray tan could be just the thing you need.

If you already apply artificial tanning lotions at home, a spray tan can give you much better results for only a slightly higher cost. Spray tans last for 7 to 10 days depending on how dark the shade of tan you choose is – but don’t forget you can always top it up by spending an afternoon soaking up some sun.

A safe tan with a natural glow

Spray tans are a fantastic option if you want to maximise safety without compromising the aesthetics of your tan. Spray tans look natural, and don’t leave unsightly streaks and patches like many DIY tanning solutions.

When you opt for a spray tan, you also skip out on all of the health risks and side effects that come with UV tans – either from tanning beds or just too much sun. Spending too long in UV light can increase your risk of skin cancer and accelerate the effects of ageing, which leads to more wrinkles and skin damage.

If you want to achieve the best results, always see a professional, experienced spray tanner. Choosing someone that you know and trust to carry out your spray tan minimises the risk of streaks and inconsistencies and ensures that you can achieve the perfect shade for your
skin.
