7 MOST IMPORTANT TANNING STEPS!

Often I hear people saying, "I don't feel like i'm getting color," or my personal favorite, "How do YOU get so dark?" Sometimes I even hear people literally come in for the first time, tan, then come out and say, "I didn't get any color." WRONG. Tanning is a process with steps you must follow in order to achieve your maximum results!

7 STEPS THAT WILL GET YOU DARK:

1. COME OFTEN! There is no way you can achieve an amazingly dark color starting off pale, and only coming in once /  twice a week. Come every 24hrs (at LEAST every 48 if you're busy....) until you reach your desired color. This is how you will get tan, and fast. Once you've achieved your desirable color, it is then safe to come in moderation just to maintain.
2. EXFOLIATE! You should exfoliate at least every 10 days. Don't think of it as loosing your color..you are loosing icky flakes that dull your skins beauty and prevent your skin from attracting necessary moisture, this will make the tan uneven, patchy and look harsh and unattractive!
3. MOISTURIZE! Dry flaky skin does not tan and can prevent your skin from absorbing up to 50% of the light produced! We all know tanning dries out your skin each session, so just as you SHOULD apply lotion before, you SHOULD apply a lotion after! 
4. USE SALON QUALITY LOTIONS! Lotions designed specifically for tanners replace the vitamins and minerals lost during the tanning process. They are also specifically formulated to intensify the tanning potential of the UV light using natural ingredients such as Taurine and Tyrosine to produce the best possible tan! Cheaper lotions sold at sally's and Walmart contain inferior ingredients. Lotions sold cheaper online can be diluted with other product, and even stored in a completely different environment then called for - creating bacteria. 
5. DON'T BURN! Burning damages your skin and shortens the life of your tan! Peeling can also give you unsexy unevenness! 
6. VARIETY! After some time, you're going to want to switch your lotions up to avoid hitting a tanning plateau! I also always hear, "I was getting color, but now I don't feel like I'm getting anything." Thats because you need a more advanced lotion! Change can sometimes be GOOD!
