Ever wonder how the idea of Indoor tanning came about?
It was actually invented for health reasons for men and women that were Vitamin D deficient in the 1900s. The lack of sunlight in many European countries was causing diseases such as Tuberculosis and Rickets, so artificial sun lamps were designed to mimic the fabulous benefits of sunshine!
Thanks to scientists such as Friedrich Wolff, (Yes, of Wolff Tanning Beds!) studying UV rays turned into the ever popular bronze glow of indoor tanning. CoCo Chanel also had a hand in the matter, sporting the first tanned face model in an issue of British Vogue. Ever since, tanning has revolutionized into one of the most popular trends of our century!
I wonder what Wolff and Miss CoCo would think of our Sun Angel and Velocity beds?
So whether you're looking for a deep sun kissed glow, or just needing some happy Vitamin D rays on this gloomy Monday afternoon, stop in and see us to brighten up your day! Now you might be just as educated on tanning as we are!
