Here is a list of the myths most commonly associated with tanning.
Myth no. 1: Too much tanning 'fries' your internal organs.
The Truth: The reality is that this is scientifically impossible. UV rays penetrate about .2mm into the skin and do not go beyond the first layer.
Myth No. 3: Any kind of sun exposure can lead to skin cancer.
The Truth: This statement is not completely false; however, it is also not completely true. Sun exposure does not lead to skin cancer; but rather, sun burn, that is the culprit. Human beings need a certain amount of UV exposure in order to maintain overal health.
Myth No. 4: Indoor tanning is riskier than outdoor tanning.
The Truth: Overexposure to UV light, whether from the sun or a tanning bed, can prove to be harmful. Fusion Tanning Studios offers a controlled tanning enviroment. All Fusion Tanning Studio Tanning Consultants are trained to ensure that our clients are not overexposed and maintain a healthy tan.
Myth No. 5: I must burn first in order to tan.
The Truth: Sunburns cause only damage to the skin and provide no aid in the tanning process. All tanners should consult with their salon specialist to obtain a recommended tanning schedule to prevent burning.
