Tanning Tips

Redlands Beach Tanning's indoor tanning facility offers a year round, convenient, controlled environment for people of all types who want to enjoy the look and feel of a tan body. We want you to understand the tanning process so you can know what to expect from your visit to our salon.

The tanning process depends on whether you use our UV free products or one of our tanning beds. When using one of our beds some see results very quickly, but for others it can take up to several sessions before a noticeable darkening of the skin is evident. For beginning tanners, initial exposure times should be short. It may even seem like nothing happened, but remember, it can take up to 48 hours for a tan to develop. When building a base tan, 48 hours is the recommended time between sessions. Depending upon the bed type, it usually takes from 1-3 sessions to notice results. Once you have an established tan, it is usually only necessary to tan two or three times a week.

Redlands Beach Tanning requires that you use some form of eye protection when using our beds. Simply closing your eyes eyelids does not provide adequate protection from ultraviolet radiation!

You'll get better results from your tanning session when using a tanning product! The lotion moistures your skin, helps open the pores of your skin and increases the effect of UV exposure. If you are already very dark you can break through your tanning plateau by using a high quality lotion. Our tanning products help the tanning process by magnifying, moisturizing and conditioning your skin.
