Why Tan At Electric Sun
What is the differece between our tanning salon and others? Recently a previous customer stopped in at our Lenexa store and asked a question that advised us that customers don't know the difference. "Why is it that when I tan at Electric Sun I receive a tan that lasts longer? I recently tanned for 30 days at another salon and my tan fadded so fast. But when I tanned here my tan lasted longer. Why is that?" Well here is the answer. Salons have the choice of what bulb to equip in there tanning equipment. We choose a more expensive bulb that is higher in UVA (bronzing) and less in UVB (burning ray). A high burning bulb or UVB, is a cheeper bulb for salons to purchase. While bronzing bulbs are more expensive for a salon to purchase. Electric Sun chooses a more expensive bulb that gives the user a deeper golden tan that simply lasts longer and that is more gentle on the skin being lower in UVB. High UVB lamps are more abrasive on the skin and breaks down the dermis (upper level of the skin) allowing a longer healing time of the skin and faster exfoliation. UVA (bronzing ray) penatrates deeper into the skin where more of the malanicite cells produce a golden tan. This is why a tan from Electric Sun will last longer than other tans. Goes back to the saying "You get what you pay for". Quality does cost a little more, but well worth it!
