Why tan indoors?
Modern indoor tanning facilities strive to offer many more benefits than just being safer due to more controlled exposure to indoor tanning rays. Indoor tanning is cooler than sitting in the “blistering” sun, as well as far more likely to limit sunburn due to the emphasis on education and moderated exposure. The privacy of an indoor tanning bed or booth allows more complete exposure to the benefits of the tanning rays, allowing a more even, golden tan than uncontrolled outdoor tanning. All without any sand clinging to your skin, and no insects with which to contend.
When you tan in an indoor tanning salon, your skin produces a tan in the same way that it does when you tan outdoors – through the absorption of ultraviolet light. One of the many benefits of indoor tanning is that it allows you to control the amount of ultraviolet light that your exposed to, to help avoid a sunburn. At Maui Beach your tanning session is determined by the equipment manufacturers recommendation as well as our trained staff that take into account your tanning history and individual skin type. Convenience is another consideration when choosing to tan indoors. Outdoor tanning is often limited by seasons, location, and weather. Indoor tanning offers you convenience, control, and dependable results.
We know that outdoors we are exposed to a wide range of the sun’s UV light, including the most intense rays. Indoor tanning systems do NOT utilize these potentially harmful rays. Tanning indoors also eliminates many environmental factors that are present outdoors, allowing us to carefully control each client’s UV exposure and reduce the risk of sunburn. The design of the tanning system allows the UV light to reach all parts of your body for an even tan. The indoor tanning industry is at the forefront in educating the public about how to successfully avoid sunburn over the course of one’s life. In fact, studies have consistently shown that indoor tanners, once they begin tanning in a professional salon, are up to 81% less likely to sunburn than they were before they started tanning indoors.
