What's the Difference Between Spray Tanning and UV Tanning?

Spray tanning provides a sunless option, using a mist to give the skin a tanned look without UV exposure. UV tanning involves exposure to ultraviolet rays, either in the sun or a tanning bed, which stimulates the skin’s production of melanin, the pigment that gives skin its color.

How Do I Prepare for a Tanning Session?

To prepare, shower and exfoliate to remove dead skin cells for a more even tan. Avoid wearing makeup, moisturizers, or perfumes to the session, as these can create a barrier on the skin.

The duration of a tan varies depending on the method used and your skin type. Generally, a UV tan can last for several days to a week.

Yes, even those with fair skin can tan, but it should be done more cautiously. glo Spa Consultants can help determine the best approach and exposure times to minimize the risk of burning and maximize the effectiveness of tanning.

To maintain your tan, moisturize regularly to keep the skin hydrated. For UV tanning, gradual and consistent exposure helps maintain the tan.

How Often Should I Tan?

We recommend tanning once a week, doing the Perfect Tan In One Day™.

What is Red Light Therapy?

Red light therapy (RLT) is a treatment that uses low-wavelength red light to improve skin health, reduce inflammation, and aid in healing various conditions. It’s a non-invasive method that exposes the skin to red and near-infrared wavelengths.

How Does Red Light Therapy Work?

RLT works by emitting low-level wavelengths of red light that penetrate the skin. This light is absorbed by the cells, stimulating cell regeneration and repair.

What are the Benefits of Red Light Therapy?

Benefits include improved skin health (like reduction in wrinkles, scars, redness, and acne), enhanced muscle recovery, pain reduction, inflammation control, and possibly improving symptoms of certain medical conditions.

Is Red Light Therapy Safe?

Red light therapy is generally considered safe. It does not contain UV rays and is not invasive. However, it’s always recommended to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new treatment.

How Often Should I Use Red Light Therapy?

It is recommended to use red light 2-3 times per week, skipping a day in between and in conjunction with Red Light activated products.

Can Red Light Therapy Cause Side Effects?

While RLT is generally low-risk, some people might experience mild irritation, redness, or discomfort. It’s important to follow instructions for use provided by the glo Consultants.

What services have Red Light Therapy in them?

100% red light: Beauty Angel (full body) and Poly (more concentrated/face only)

Hybrid (Red Light & UV Tanning): Prestige 1600, KBL 7000, KBL 8000, Vitality, P9, Sunrise 7200 Hybrid Stand Up

and Infrared Light?

have different wavelengths and, as a result, different properties and uses:

01

Red Light is visible to the human eye, whileInfrared Light is not.

02


Red Light is effective for treating skin-related issues such as wrinkles, scars, and acne while Infrared Light is more effective for treating muscle issues, deeper tissues, and joints, as well as for promoting overall healing and pain relief.

03


Red Light generates less heat, focusing more on delivering energy to skin cells, while Infrared Light is often used for its warming effects, beneficial in muscle relaxation and improving circulation.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

- Fort Worth, Texas

First time going to glo for a spray tan. Immediately fell in love with all the amenities! I had gone to Palm Beach Tan a few times for a spray tan and this place blew them out of the water! Whitley helped me with not only making me feel comfortable and welcomed, she easily sold me on getting all the extra lotions and prep products. I don’t feel sticky at all. Highly recommend!

- House Springs, Mo

The spa services are off the charts for the money that you pay monthly. The individual that showed me around was so knowledgeable and hooked me up to what I needed/wanted. They have a bed that has red light, blue light (for hydration) and Tanning all in one. Oh AND it has misting capacity, if you get too hot. It’s just awesome place.
