Benefits of Sunbeds

The Benefits of using Sunbeds during colder months

Sufferers who use sunbeds on a regular basis, autumn through to winter not only see the benefits of a sun-kissed appearance, but the warm lighting for short, regular periods of time will: 

  • Increase Vitamin D levels and combat Seasonal Affective Disorder

  • Boosts mood – the UV light encourages our bodies to produce more endorphins & Serotonin 

  • Exposure to UV light can also aid in a healthy sleep cycle. 

  • Boosts Immune System – UV Light reduces your chances of getting the cold & flu and can prevent several types of autoimmune diseases.

Identifying Skin Types

In tanning there is no ‘one-size-fits–all’. The amount of UV exposure needed to acquire a tan varies according to your skin type. Hence, the fairest skin type cannot tan without burning and should not use a sunbed while darker skin types are less likely to burn. That is why tanning professionals are trained to determine the appropriate amount of UV exposure for each client while minimising your risk of sunburn.                   The following table identifies skin types and the corresponding recommended tanning practice.

Skin type 1: Very fair skin, freckles, red hair, light grey / green / blue eyes

You have light features and are very sensitive to light. You always burn and cannot tan.

Skin type 2 : Fair skin, blonde or light brown hair, grey / green / blue eyes

Skin type 3 : Beige skin, brown hair, grey / light brown eyes

Skin type 4 : Light brown skin, dark brown hair, brown eyes

Skin type 5 : Brown skin, brownish / black eyes, dark brown hair

Skin type 6 : Black skin, black hair, black eyes

Skin type 2 -6 can benefit from sunbed exposure. Of course the individual exposure time on a sunbed will be different due to the skin type. The darker the skin the longer it can be exposed to sunlight without damage (burn).
