You can use a tanning bed once per day. We recommend allowing your skin adequate time to recover between sessions.

This depends on your current skin type. We take a cautious approach and will typically recommend starting with 3–5 minutes, based on your skin type, and gradually increasing your exposure time from there.

 

Yes, you certainly can! We recommend starting with a shorter session time and gradually building your exposure to help develop your color while minimizing the risk of burning.

 

Yes! Indoor tanning lotion can help enhance your tanning results while also providing skincare ingredients that help replenish and hydrate your skin during your tanning routine. For better results and added skincare benefits, we highly recommend using a quality indoor tanning lotion, like the options available at Totally Tan & Spa.

 

No. We do not recommend using outdoor tanning lotions in our tanning beds. Many outdoor tanning lotions contain oils and ingredients that can damage the acrylic surfaces of our equipment and may create a slippery, unsafe environment for our staff and guests.

Outdoor tanning lotions also may not provide the same benefits as products specifically formulated for indoor tanning. Indoor tanning lotions are designed to help maximize your tanning results while providing skincare benefits during your session.

 
Yes, you can shower after tanning. If you use a bronzer tanning lotion, we recommend waiting at least 2–4 hours after your session before showering to allow the bronzer to develop. When you do shower, avoid very hot water and harsh soaps, as these can dry out your skin and cause your tan to fade more quickly.
You must be at least 18 years old to use a tanning bed in Minnesota. Minnesota law prohibits anyone under the age of 18 from using tanning equipment at a tanning facility.
