i live in Ohio and i just got a job at a wash n’ tan where i am required to get certification to work in the tanning part, but i’m only 17. what are the age requirements to get certification? PLZ HELP?
If they are requiring you to get this certification, they should be giving you all the details. Ask the management to give you all the information.
i have an iguana and i bought it a sunlamp that’s supposed to mimic outdoor light… will i get a tan from that? if i lay under it i mean.
Ummm, no you actually can’t. A sunlamp mimics the heat and the kind of light that reptiles need, but not the UV radiation the sun gives off that makes you tan.
Will a Tanning bed increase Vitamin D absorption like the sun does?
Indoor Tanning is not an advisable source of vitamin D. Both the sun and Tanning Beds emit two types of ultraviolet light rays, UVA and UVB. The skin absorbs both types, but in different ways. UVA rays have longer wavelengths that penetrate into the deepest layers of the skin, whereas UVB rays’ wavelengths are short and only reach the surface layers of skin. Both types of rays contribute to the health risks associated with excessive sun exposure, such as the risk of developing skin cancers. However, UVB rays also trigger the synthesis of the vitamin D precursor in the skin, and thus are solely responsible for the healthy benefits of sunshine. For most people, exposing one’s arms and face to sunshine for about 20 minutes per day provides the skin with enough UVB rays to eliminate vitamin D deficiencies, without causing long-term damage to the skin.
However, while UVB rays account for the health benefits of sunshine, tanning Salons are more interested in UVA rays. This is because overexposure to UVB rays, which affect the surface layers of skin, quickly causes sunburns. On the other hand, UVA rays are responsible for the golden-brown tan sought after by most Salon patrons. As a result, most Tanning Salons calibrate their tanning beds to emit approximately 95 percent UVA rays. This calibration maximizes the tanning effects of the machine and minimizes the risk of burning. Unfortunately, it also minimizes the amount of vitamin D that can be metabolized relative to the exposure to damaging ultraviolet rays.
Most tanning beds put you at risk of unnecessary, excessive exposure to dangerous UVA rays, and are by no means a substitute for old-fashioned sunshine.
Will a sunburn from a Tanning bed turn into a tan?
