| Q:
Is indoor tanning the same as outdoor tanning? |
When you tan at an indoor tanning facility,
your skin produces a tan
the same way it does when you lay out in the sun through ultraviolet (UV)
light. There is one important difference. When you are out in
the sun, you cannot control the amount of UV light you are exposed to,
because it is a controlled environment. You can gradually increase
your exposure time to make sure you do not sunburn. Our certified
staff will help you with this |
 |
| Q: Is it dangerous to tan? |
| There is nothing dangerous about getting a
tan. In fact, your body needs ultraviolet rays to live. And now,
research is unlocking the secrets of vitamin D, which is naturally produced
by the skin when it is exposed to sunlight or indoor tanning lights. |
| |
| Q: Do I need to wear lotion when
tanning? |
| You don't need to wear SPF lotion when
tanning indoors because these lotions are designed to allow you to spend a
longer amount of time in the sun. When you tan indoors with a
controlled expose time you don't need SPF. You should avoid using
outdoor lotions and oils when you tan indoors. These products will
make the acrylic shaded and will hinder your tanning. Using indoor
tanning lotions are not a necessity, but they will dramatically increase
your results while keeping your skin moisturized. |
| |
| Q: If I have a base tan, is it
still possible to burn outdoors? |
| Yes, having a good base tan does provide a
defense mechanism, but if you overexpose whether it's indoors or outdoors
the chance of burning is possible. A base tan gives your skin 4 times
more protection than it would normally have. You will need to a number
of times to slowly build up a base tan. |
 |
| Q: Is indoor tanning more
dangerous then tanning in the sun? |
| Just the opposite is true. Unlike
tanning outdoors, indoor tanning is designed to match your skin type and
desired tan in a well-regulated, controlled environment. The vast bulk
of scientific research indicates that indoor tanning is a safer alternative
to tanning outdoors. |
| |
| Q: Can I wear contact lenses while
tanning? |
| Because tanning naturally draws moisture
from the body, eyes can lose moisture too. Even with
protective eyewear, eyes can dry out a little. If you tan with your
contacts in, it is recommended that you use moisturizing drops prior to just
after tanning to prevent any temporary discomfort. |
| |

certified by the American Tanning Institute? |
| All the staff at North Shore Tanning have
successfully met the requirements of the certification for the American
Tanning Institute and earned a certificate as a "Certified Tanning

| Protecting your eyes in one of the most
important things you can do while tanning indoors. North Shore Tanning
will give you Wink*Ease's, which are a completely CLEAN EASY disposable eye protection.
Don't take any chances with your eyes - wear eyewear! |
| |
| Q: Does tanning cause
Melanona? |
| Recent research indicates that the benefits
of moderate exposure to sunlight outweigh the hypothetical risks.
Surprisingly, there is no compelling scientific evidence that tanning causes
melanoma. Scientists have proven, however that exposure to all forms
of ultraviolet light-both indoors and out stimulates the natural production
of vitamin D. And research has proven that vitamin D protects
against heart disease and many types of cancer, in addition to providing
other important health benefits. |
