SUNBED FAQs

What is indoor tanning and how does it work?

Indoor tanning uses UV sunbeds to give you a natural-looking glow.

Indoor tanning, also called UV tanning, takes place in a sunbed that provides controlled light exposure. At Baja Beach Wellness, our Certified Wellness Experience Specialists will adjust your session time using the Fitzpatrick scale, so your tanning plan matches your skin type and tone. Our salons follow all PA Department of Health guidelines for Indoor tanning.

Can you tan nude in a tanning bed?

Yes — and everything is sanitized between each guest.

 

Many guests choose to tan without tan lines. At Baja Beach Wellness, you’re welcome to tan nude if you’d like. All of our tanning equipment is thoroughly sanitized between every session with hospital-grade sanitizer, so you can feel comfortable during your visit.

 

 

 

Do I need lotion when tanning indoors?

Yes! Lotion helps you tan up to 50% better.

 

Using lotion during tanning can improve results by up to 50%. Our exclusive product lines contain advanced skincare ingredients that help hydrate and nourish while enhancing color. Our Wellness Experience Specialists are happy to recommend the best lotion or aftercare product to fit your goals.

 

 

 

How long does it take to see results?

Results vary by skin type and session frequency.

 

Many guests begin noticing a difference after just a few sessions. Your results depend on your skin type, tone, and how often you tan. Our staff uses the Fitzpatrick scale to guide your exposure schedule and recommend products to help you reach your goals at a comfortable pace. Remember, never rush a tan - for best results leave a minimum of 48 hours between sunbed sessions.

I’m going on vacation — how do I build a base tan?

Start early and go slow for the best vacation glow.

 

Heading on vacation? That’s so exciting! We’ll create a tanning plan just for you, based on your skin type and tone. The key to building a base tan is consistency and patience — slow and steady wins the race. Rushing only reduces the quality of your results, so we’ll guide you with the right exposure schedule before your trip.

 

 

 

What if I have sensitive skin?

We adjust sessions based on your skin type.

 

Guests with more delicate skin tones can still enjoy indoor tanning, with shorter and carefully adjusted and monitored exposure times and sensitive skin approved lotions at Baja Beach Wellness. We also offer VersaPro spray tanning (over 90 combinations available) for a non-UV sunless option. Our staff will always recommend what works best for your skin and goals.

How old must I be to tan?

You must be at least 17 years of age with parent consent to UV tan in Pennsylvania.

Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian on their first visit to Baja Beach Wellness to sign necessary consent forms for their minor. Anyone under the age of 17 are prohibited from using sunbeds however we offer a variety of spray tan options to deliver a natural looking glow.
