Professional UV Tanning in Lakewood, Colorado

UV tanning has been part of Snazzy Tanz since we opened our doors in October 2022, and owner Beth Shull brings more than 30 years of tanning industry knowledge to every recommendation. Our Smart Tan-certified staff help you pick the right equipment and session plan for your skin type, so you can build color gradually and responsibly instead of guessing.

Our salon offers lay-down bed tanning, stand-up tanning booths, hybrid stand-up UV tanning beds, high-pressure units and dedicated face tanning. Many clients finish a UV base with a custom spray tanning session before big events, or balance their routine with red light therapy. Flexible tanning packages and memberships make it simple to keep your glow consistent.

As a locally owned, woman-owned salon voted Best Tanning Salon in community awards for 2024 and 2025, we take pride in clean equipment, honest advice and a friendly welcome for every client, whether you are brand new to tanning or a longtime regular.

How often should you use a tanning bed to build a base tan?

Most people build a base tan best with short, spaced-out sessions rather than long, back-to-back ones. Your ideal schedule depends on your skin type and the equipment you use, which is why our Smart Tan-certified staff create a plan with you before your first session.

Fair skin usually needs shorter sessions and more rest between visits, while skin that tans easily may progress faster. We always encourage clients to avoid burning, wear protective eyewear and use a quality indoor tanning lotion. As your color develops, we can adjust session length or suggest a different bed or booth so you keep moving toward your goal comfortably. Most clients also find that consistency matters more than session length.

Is a stand-up booth or a lay-down bed better for me?

Both deliver beautiful color, so the choice comes down to preference. Stand-up tanning booths eliminate pressure points, which can mean fewer pale spots on the back and shoulders, and many clients like that they never lie on a shared surface. Lay-down beds feel relaxing and familiar. Our hybrid stand-up UV tanning beds add another option to the mix. We are happy to let you try different units and see which one you enjoy most.

What is high-pressure tanning?

High-pressure tanning units use lamps designed to emphasize a different part of the UV spectrum than standard beds. Many clients find they develop a deeper, bronze-toned color that tends to fade more gradually. Because these units work differently, our certified staff help you choose a session length that fits your skin type and tanning history. High-pressure sessions are a popular upgrade for clients who already have a base and want richer, longer-lasting color.

Deeper Bronze
High-Pressure Tanning

High-pressure units are designed to create a deeper, bronze-toned color that many clients find fades gradually. They are a favorite upgrade for anyone with an existing base. We guide session timing carefully so you get rich color while respecting your skin.

FAQ

UV Tanning Questions, Answered

New to indoor tanning or curious about our beds and booths? These answers cover what clients most often ask our team at our salon in Lakewood, Colorado. For anything else, call us or send the form and we will gladly help you plan your sessions.

    Do I need protective eyewear for UV tanning?

    Yes. Protective eyewear is essential for every UV session, because closing your eyes alone does not fully protect them. If you do not have your own pair, ask our team when you arrive, and we will make sure you have proper eye protection before you start tanning.

    Should I use tanning lotion in a tanning bed?

    We recommend a quality indoor tanning lotion for every session. Lotion keeps skin hydrated, which can help your color develop more evenly and look better over time. Avoid outdoor sunscreens and oils designed for the beach. Our staff can point you toward a lotion that suits your skin and goals.

    How long should my first tanning session be?

    Your first session should be short and based on your skin type. Our Smart Tan-certified staff will ask about your skin, how easily you burn and your tanning history, then recommend a starting session length for the specific bed or booth you choose.

    Can I tan if I burn easily?

    If you burn easily, talk with our team before tanning. We may suggest very short sessions with longer breaks between them, or recommend a custom spray tan instead, which gives you color with no UV exposure. Your comfort and skin health always come first at our salon.

    What is the difference between a stand-up booth and a hybrid stand-up bed?

    Both let you tan upright with no pressure points, which helps create even color. Our hybrid stand-up UV tanning beds offer a slightly different design and experience from a traditional booth. Try each one to see which you prefer, and our staff can explain the differences in person.

    Do you offer tanning packages?

    Yes. We offer tanning packages and memberships so you can stay consistent without deciding every visit. Package options can change, so the easiest way to compare them is to ask our team in person or when you book online through our client portal.

    Can I combine UV tanning and spray tanning?

    Yes, and many clients do. A UV base can make spray tan color look even richer, and a spray tan before a big event adds instant depth. Ask our team how to schedule both services so each one works well with the other and fits your timeline.

    Are walk-ins welcome for tanning beds and booths?

    Yes, walk-ins are welcome, and we also offer same-day appointments when available. Booking online through our client portal helps you secure your preferred bed or booth, especially during busy seasons at our salon in Lakewood, Colorado. Just let us know if it is your first visit.
