Sun Bar offers both VersaSpa and UV tanning as walk-in services. VersaSpa uses a cosmetic mist to darken the surface of the skin. The beds and stand-up units use UV radiation, which carries health risks.
Compare the practical details
For an event on a set date, Sun Bar suggests spraying one to two days ahead. The application takes about a minute, followed by several hours of color development.
- VersaSpa spray
A temporary, UV-free cosmetic color. Sun Bar estimates five to seven days of wear with preparation and care. The introductory new-client price is $17.99.
- UV equipment
UV exposure can darken skin over time. It also increases the risk of skin cancer, premature aging, and eye injury. Sun Bar has seven levels, plus single sessions, packs, and month-to-month plans.
- Time before an event
For a spray, plan prep the day before the visit. Get the exact first-rinse time from the desk and allow the color to settle before you dress for your event.
For a first spray tan
Arrive without lotion, makeup, deodorant, or oil. Bring loose clothing and ask how to protect your eyes and lips and avoid inhaling the spray. After your first rinse, moisturize daily and minimize scrubbing or long soaks.
Going outdoors afterward
A tan offers little protection from UV. Plan to use your usual sun protection on vacation or for an outdoor event, regardless of how you got the color.
