A: YES! Our eyes dont have the capacity to produce melanin for protection like our skin does. UV light can be extremely damaging to your eyes- the ultra-thin eyelids dont block ultraviolet rays, and neither do coins, cotton balls, or anything other than federally approved eyewear for indoor tanning. Without the right eye protection, you take the chance of developing loss of color perception, poor night vision, cataracts, and eye growths like pinguecula or pterygium.
Q: How do I prevent "raccoon eyes?"
A: You can adjust your protective eyewear during your tanning session. Dont lift the eyewear off your eyes- just slide it gently, making sure your entire eye is covered. Another obvious trick is minimizing the effects with make-up or by using self tanner!
Q: Can I tan when I'm pregnant?
A: UV light does not travel beyond the top layers of the skin, so no UV reaches an unborn baby. The main objection to tanning pregnant women is the increase potential of becoming overheated. Other common concerns include hormones that may cause you to tan unevenly and also constricted blood vessels as a result of lying on your back. Talk to us and we will explain our policy on tanning while pregnant.
Q: What are the causes of white spots?
A: White spots have several causes, so it’s best to check with a trained tanning operator for verification of your particular situation.
Vitiligo is irregularly-shaped white patches of skin that do not tan. It is caused by a condition that causes melanocyte cells in the affected area to degenerate and die off. Your physician can help reverse the effects of vitiligo.
Tinea versicolor, or “sunspots” is dandruff-like fungus that flakes off the scalp onto the upper body. This condition is very common and has nothing to do with cleanliness. Extra-strength dandruff shampoo is often used to treat it. Pressure Points are seen on skin surfaces that contact the equipment, such as shoulder blades, the backs of calves and upper arms. To avoid this, shift position during session so that all skin receives oxygen.
