Quick Tanning with Vertical Tanning Beds

The vertical tanning bed, also known as a stand-up or cubicle, has become the popular choice in tanning. This type of tanning bed is constructed in the shape of a cylinder and its walls are lined with ultraviolet bulbs. Tanning is simple; all you have to do is stand inside the booth and close the door. Because of the way this tanning bed is designed, you are able to achieve a tan much faster and more evenly.

Another advantage to the vertical tanning bed is that it is more hygienic than the horizontal tanning beds. The new innovative technology that is used in the vertical tanning beds cuts down on the time you spend tanning. It is possible to spend as little as three minutes in a tanning session and see noticeable tanning by the third session, which drastically cuts down tanning time.

The walls of a vertical tanning bed are lined in a 360-degree pattern with ultraviolet bulbs. With this type of design, the whole body receives exposure at the same time, which eliminates the need to turn over partway through the session. This also allows the person to receive a more even tan in less the time than it does in a horizontal tanning bed.

Vertical tanning beds take up less space and can be stored easily, unlike its counterpart, the horizontal tanning bed, which lies flat and takes up more space in a room. However, it is important that you monitor how much time is spent in the vertical tanning bed; because it tans faster, you may be inclined to stay in longer. This overexposure is not recommended for the skin, and it can lead to signs of early aging of the skin, more wrinkles, and skin cancer.

Your vertical tanning bed should come with a manufacturer manual, which will give you specific guidelines on exposure timing and it is important that you strictly adhere to these guidelines. The manual will give the different timings that are in accordance with the different skin types. Another possibility is checking with your local tanning salons that use vertical tanning beds, so you can get advise on proper use, and even give it a try with the assistance of a professional.
