Check out my lovely tan. Doesn’t it look like I just returned from an island getaway? I have never, ever been so tan, especially as a red-head! I feel amazing and love how the color gives me a healthy glow and makes me look slimmer. I’m not even wearing makeup in the below picture! All this is thanks to Save Your Skin Tans in Akron, OH!

My Spray Tan Experience from Save Your Skin Tans in Akron, OH

There is nothing like having a tan. It boosts self-confidence and self-image. Studies even show that after getting a self tan, people feel more relaxed and have a more positive self-image comparable to how you feel after relaxing in the sun. Plus, a tan can make you look thinner because of the optical illusions of darker colors are perceived smaller by the human eye.
Save Your Skin Tans is located in beautiful southern Akron, OH in the City of Green. It is a quick drive from anywhere in Summit County as well as up from Canton as it is right off of I-77 and Arlington Rd. Exit. They are located in the James Place building.
The office and staff are very welcoming. I was nervous getting my first ever spray tan. I didn’t know what to expect. I did read their pre tan instructions to shave and exfoliate the night before. This prepares your skin for the best application. They put me right at ease from the moment I arrived.
There are several small rooms to get your spray tan at the Akron, Ohio Save Your Skin Tans. You’ll go inside the room and get undressed. You can wear a swim suit or whatever you feel comfortable in. You can even go topless to avoid tan lines. I chose to wear my top but just pull the straps off my shoulders. The room is very private and toasty warm. As you can see, they use state-of-the-art equipment.

Your certified airbrush specialist will come in once you are ready and begin the spray tan. Your specialist with customize your sunless color to compliment your skin
tone and tanning preferences. I chose a medium shade so that it would look natural for me as a red-head.
You’ll stand with your arms held out, then she’ll have you rotate your arms and legs to get a smooth, streak free finish. It takes less than 10 minutes.
I saw immediate results although it takes a good day for the DHA development process to complete.

I can’t tell you how excited I was with the immediate results. I was actually quite giddy. I loved the way my skin looked and how it made me feel. I was 100% sold on spray tans from the moment I saw my tan in the mirror and it only got better!
If you are wondering how sunless spray tans work, here is the quick answer. They use dihydroxyacetone (DHA) self tanning formula to create a tanned appearance. The DHA develops a brown color on the surface of your skin, or the upper layer. The DHA has a reaction to skin proteins and oxygen that produces brown compounds. They even have organic options.

How long you keep your spray tan is ultimately up to you and how you take care of your skin afterward. For the first 8 hours, you aren’t suppose to get wet or it will halt the DHA development process. I waited until the next day to shower. One thing that I was pleasantly surprised about with spray tans is that it didn’t stink. I’ve used self-tanner lotions in college without much success – I had orange, streaky skin and smelled awful! With Save Your Skin Tans, I have a smooth, streak-free finish with no after-smells.
The most important part of keeping your spray tan longer is to moisturize. It’s best to moisturize your skin twice daily, which I do already, especially during colder weather! I’ve had my spray tan for 11 days now and still have a tan, although fading by now.
I have had so many compliments and I feel great! While at Save Your Skin Tans, I saw a variety of people getting spray tans. People get spray tans for many different reasons. While there, I saw a young man, young women who felt too ghostly white, an elderly woman getting ready for vacation, and another lady that looked my age. I was surprised by the variety of customers that seek out spray tans. They also have clients that come in for spray tans for special occasions, dances, weddings, and even body builders.
Here are a few of their happy clients:
During the holidays, we’ll all be seeing friends and family that we haven’t seen all year long. Look and feel your best with a spray tan. Christmas is the time of year that people take the most pictures, you’ll look your best with a beautiful tan.
