Depending on your skin type, your natural tanning ability, and which sunbeds you use, you may start to see results after your very first session. In Basic beds, it can take 10-14 visits to develop a base tan. Luxury beds will work twice as fast and in an Instant bed or the Sun Angel, you can go from zero to tan in just 2-3 visits.
A tan occurs in the outermost layer of your skin, the epidermis. Cells in the epidermis are constantly reproducing and pushing older cells upward toward the surface of your skin where they are eventually sloughed off. This process of exfoliation occurs naturally every 28-30 days. As your skin replaces its cells, the cells laden with melanin are removed. Therefore, a tan can only be maintained with repeated exposure to UV light.
Specially designed lamps in high pressure beds, like our LED beds, produce UVA and UVB in different ratios than conventional sunbeds. High Pressure beds emit just enough UVB to stimulate melanin production and a much higher concentration of UVA to oxidize that melanin and turn it to a golden brown. Because the UVB output is extremely limited in high pressure sunbeds, most all skin types are able to enjoy the full session time without burning. The lower UVB output of the Instant beds also means that it doesn’t cause as much drying of the skin or accelerate the exfoliation process like conventional sunbeds. The result is a deeper, darker, and longer lasting tan.
Tanning takes place in the skin’s outermost layer, the epidermis, with special cells called melanocytes. When exposed to UVB light (short wave ultraviolet), melanocytes produce the pigment, called melanin. The pinkish melanin travels up through the epidermis and is absorbed by other skin cells. When exposed to UVA light (longer wave), melanin oxidizes or darkens. This is your skin’s way of protecting itself against too much UV light. The tanning process is optimized through the use of professional indoor tanning products.
You need more than UV light to achieve a beautiful and long-lasting suntan. Naturally, your skin will try to reflect UV light in order to prevent sunburn. So when you are tanning in a controlled environment like a sunbed, you want your skin to absorb the UV light in order to oxidize melanin (turn brown) in your skin. Professional tanning products (AKA “lotions”) are designed specifically for this purpose.
The indoor tanning products we carry play an important role in the tanning process. Indoor tanning lotions provide critical moisturizers, amino acids, and melanin boosters to your skin to help you achieve a faster, darker, more beautiful tan. Tanning lotion also works to replenish moisture in your skin that is depleted from the tanning process, which, in turn, helps you maintain a longer lasting tan. Remember, healthy skin is the foundation of a beautiful tan.

Speed. Control. Climate. Convenience. It doesn’t take all day to get a tan indoors. Depending on your skin type, just a few minutes, not hours. Indoor tanning provides a controlled environment. Our state-of-the-art equipment allows us to monitor and scientifically control your UVA and UVB exposure so that you tan, not burn. Outdoor tanning is often limited by season, location, and weather. Whether it’s overcast, rainy, or 90 degrees in the shade, you never have to worry about the weather in our pleasant, climate-controlled environment.
Tanning is natural, and it works the same whether you tan outdoors or in a sunbed. The advantage of using sunbeds is having complete operator control over the intensity and duration of a session, which results in minimal risk of an uneven tan or a sunburn.
When it comes to UV light, both summer sunlight and most sunbeds produce pretty much the same kind and mix of sunlight: about 95% UVA and 5% UVB. The difference is that most sunbeds are 2-4 times more intense than summer sunlight. That’s the reason you only stay in a sunbed a few minutes.
Keep in mind, everyone’s skin is different. This is why we conduct a complete evaluation, using the Smart Tan Skin Type System to determine your skin type and set your exposure schedule accordingly. Our system is designed to get you the best possible tan while minimizing the risk of sunburn. You can’t get that outdoors.
Neither tanning outdoors nor tanning indoors is completely safe. However, controlled and responsible exposure, preventative and nourishing skin care products, state-of-the art tanning equipment, and expert Smart Tan Certified staff education makes indoor sun tanning at Slick Rock the most control over your body’s natural tanning process you can get.
Tanning is your body’s natural defense against sunburn. It’s what your body was designed to do! But going from a body of sun-deprived skin to a gorgeous, natural tan isn’t always foolproof. That’s why we educate our tanners with what we call “Smart Tanning.” What, you may ask, is the golden rule of smart tanning? Simple: Don’t ever burn!
Exposure to UV from sunlight or from a sunbed means something different for a fair-skinned red-head than it does for someone of southern European or African descent. It’s not one-size-fits-all.
At Slick Rock, we use a process called skin-typing to determine how sensitive your skin is to UV light. This allows us to determine a proper exposure schedule for you based on your skin type, including which equipment and lotions will work best for you.
We aim to deliver the results you want in the time frame you need while helping you avoid the unnecessary discomfort and damage to your skin that comes with sunburn.
Sunburn is completely different from a tan. The red color is increased blood flow sent to the skin to help your body repair the damage done from overexposure. If you are experiencing any signs of sunburn (red, pink, itchy or sensitive skin) you must avoid tanning until the burn has completely healed. Better yet, follow the golden rule of Smart Tanning and don’t ever sunburn.
Definitely! There is no current scientific and/or biological reason why a pregnant woman cannot tan indoors or outdoors. In fact, some researchers believe the production of vitamin D caused by exposure to UVB may be beneficial to both the mother and the fetus.
The only potential concern for tanning while pregnant is heat. Although heat is inevitably produced by tanning units, all of our sunbeds are ventilated and engineered to maintain temperatures below 100 degrees. As well, several of our sunbeds at Slick Rock feature Temptronic technology, which allows each guest to control the climate during their tanning session and maintain a consistent ambient temperature between 68-82 degrees Farenheit.
As a pregnant woman may find it uncomfortable to lie on her back for an extended period of time, many of our sunbeds feature multi-relax acrylics which provide more support and comfort for guests. Keep in mind, though, switching to a stand-up tanning booth is also an option!
We always recommend consulting your physician and making a decision that feels right for you.
Absolutely! You can build and maintain a tan while being mindful of your body art. Because the ink of a tattoo exists within the layers of your skin where UV light triggers the tanning process, it’s important to take steps to protect your ink from fading.
In order to keep your tattoos as vibrant as your tan, we recommend using a high SPF on any tattooed areas. We offer a variety of tanning lotions which contain Tattoo Fade Protectant as well as SPF sticks designed to be used on tattoos. Please talk to a Tanning Consultant for details.
Your tattoo is an investment, just like your tan, and it’s a good idea to let your tattoo heal completely before continuing the tanning process. Skin that has been recently tattooed is trying to complete the cycle of healing, and exposure to UV light from the sun or a tanning bed may affect the results. Please consult your Tattoo Artist if you’re not sure if a tattoo is completely healed.
You may only tan once per 24 hours. For best results, we recommend waiting 48 hours between suntan sessions. Since 1986, the Food and Drug Administration guidelines suggest that a 48 hour time interval should pass between tanning sessions. Pigmentation and/or erythema (sunburn) may not be fully visible for between 12-24 hours. Thus, two tanning sessions within a 24 hour period could cause unintentional burn.
A base tan is nature’s sunscreen! Building a gradual suntan actually creates two different forms of natural protection against sunburn:
The value of a base tan is that it adds another layer to your sunburn protection arsenal, making sunscreen worn outdoors even more effective at preventing sunburn.
Here’s how that works: The effectiveness of sunscreen products are measured in what is called “Sun Protection Factor” (or SPF). An SPF 15 product means a user can spend 15 times longer in the sun while wearing sunscreen before they would sunburn.
Say, for example, a sunbed user begins tanning under the direction of a Smart Tan Certified Tanning Wellness Consultant at Slick Rock with 3-minute sessions. After several sessions and gradually increasing the exposure time, that tanner will work her way up to 12-minute sessions. At that point, she has become naturally FOUR TIMES more resilient to sunburn than when she first started tanning. (3 minutes x 4 = 12 minutes). So that tan has an SPF 4 value.
When someone with a base tan uses sunscreen outdoors, they essentially multiply the sunburn-prevention effectiveness of the sunscreen. In other words, an SPF 15 product applied to the skin of a person whose base tan has already made her four times more resilient to sunburn creates a net SPF of 60. (SPF 15 x 4 = SPF 60).
Sunlight is absolutely essential to all life on earth. There are various reasons, both biological and psychological, why exposure to light is desirable. In addition, most people believe they look better with a tan. Thus, having a tan may provide a psychological uplift for some.
Slick Rock welcomes anyone 18 and older to come in to experience our state-of-the-art tanning services. However, we do employ strict age guidelines for those under the age of 18.
The minimum age for tanning is regulated by individual state laws.
In Washington, persons under eighteen years of age are prohibited from using an ultraviolet tanning device without a written prescription for ultraviolet radiation treatment from a licensed physician. Proof of age must be satisfied with a driver’s license or other government-issued identification containing the date of birth and a photograph of the individual.
In Idaho, if you’re between the ages of 14 and 18, and would like to enjoy our UV tanning options, you’re welcome to do so provided that your parent or legal guardian co-signs for your Slick Rock Tanning & Spa membership and provides his or her informed consent for you to use our UV tanning equipment and other services by signing our parental consent form.
No one under age 14 may use UV tanning beds at this time. However, guests of all ages are welcome to use our sunless tanning booths.
Yes! Your eyelids are too thin to block out UV light, so wearing protective eyewear is a must. In fact, it is so important that we will check to make sure you have your goggles with you before tanning—every time you visit.
Sorry, but a towel or your shirt just won’t cut it. Not only do these materials provide very little protection, blocking only 30% of the UV light from penetrating through to your eyes, but they are not FDA approved. Protective eyewear must be certified and approved by the FDA to block at least 99% of UVA and 99.9% of UVB. We offer a selection of goggles that meet federal regulations.
*Also keep in mind that your lips don’t produce melanin and therefore cannot tan, so it’s always a good idea to wear lip balm with SPF when you are tanning. We provide a SPF lip balm to all of our guests for this reason.

The most commonly stated reason for not wanting to wear protective goggles while tanning is the concern for developing unsightly tan lines around the eyes, also commonly referred to as “raccoon eyes”. You can avoid “raccoon eyes” by:
Just remember, there are a number of touch-up products available to camoflauge tan lines, and if you wear eye protection, your tan lines will fade with time, but your vision won’t!
Wearing goggles every time you tan is a requirement. State and federal regulations require that every time you tan, you must wear eyewear that protects against 99% of UVA and 99.9% of UVB light. Your eyelids, sunglasses, towels, or other non regulation compliant items will not filter out UV light. It takes a specially formulated lens to protect your delicate eye tissue from UV exposure. Too much exposure can cause permanent damage to your vision, including cornea burns or degeneration, loss of color vision, loss of vision at night, or even cataracts. We care about your safety, which is why we make absolutely certain that you have federally compliant eyewear each time you choose us for your sun tanning experience.
Our goal is to make sure you have complete peace of mind while you’re enjoying time at a Slick Rock Tanning & Spa location. That’s why we take sanitation of our facilities and equipment very seriously. You will never be left wondering about cleanliness when you choose Slick Rock for your tanning experience. After each guest completes his or her session in one of our tanning, sunless or spa units, our team members prepare the room and the equipment for its next use. All tanning equipment, both sunbeds and sunless booths, are sanitized using hospital-grade disinfectant which is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). But we don’t stop there. Any and all additional furniture that could come in contact with one of our guests during their visit is properly cleaned prior to use. This includes head rests, chairs, handles and acrylic surfaces. Finally, once a Slick Rock team member has properly sanitized all applicable equipment, the cleaning is recorded in our computer system and marked as complete. We will always have a record of the room and equipment being sanitized prior to your visit.
In fact, we have a 100% cleanliness guarantee or your visit is free!
At Slick Rock, you can achieve a great tan any time of the year! Year-round access is one of the major benefits of indoor sun tanning and sunless tanning. Unlike tanning outside, indoor tanning in a sunbed is completely controlled and regulated, meaning even, bronze color all year long. In regards to the best time of day to tan, outdoor tanning exposes your skin to different amounts of UVA and UVB during different times of the day. Weather conditions and the thickness of the ozone layer are always changing throughout the day, making your outdoor UV exposure unreliable. Therefore, you may tan very well between the hours of 12 p.m. and 1 p.m. one day, but sit outside for four hours on another day and not get a bit of color. With indoor tanning, you can tan at whatever time of day you like, and your UV exposure will be equal and consistent each time you tan.
Your room at Slick Rock is private, and team members and other guests will not interrupt you during your tanning session. You are welcome to wear whatever you like to make the most of your tanning experience. Many of our guests prefer to tan nude, as it provides the most even coverage and eliminates the possibility of tan lines. However, because certain areas of your body that are not accustomed to being exposed to sunlight will be exposed to UV light during your indoor tanning sessions, we recommend introducing those areas to UV light from our sunbeds at a moderate pace. For those with concerns about sanitation or modesty, you are welcome to wear undergarments or swimwear of any coverage level. The choice is yours!
It takes a little bit of extra care in order to keep your tan looking its very best, but not a lot of time. All of the products we carry are formulated specifically for tanners and will not only keep your skin well-nourished, but replenish essential moisture, vitamins and amino acids to keep your tan glowing and vibrant. Ask your Wellness Consultant which products are best for your skin type! When showering, consider using the gentle ingredients of a tan-extending body wash. It is a great way to cleanse your skin while also nourishing and extending your tan. After showering, liberally apply one of our tan extenders. Our tan-extending lotions feature special enhancers that will help your tan last longer while nourishing and softening skin. For maximum tan effectiveness, be sure to drink plenty of water to replenish your skin from the inside, too. Finally, always wait a full 24 hours for the tanning process to complete before coming back to tan again. As long as your skin stays soft and healthy and shows no signs of reddening, we welcome you to come back in and continue to deepen your color and maintain your perfect golden hue.
There are several reasons why white spots become noticeable on the body once the tanning process begins:
1) Patches of skin which do not tan could be the result of genetic determination. The melanocytes in that certain area may simply not be efficient at producing melanin.
2) White spots could also appear due to the presence of a fungus which lives on the skin’s surface. Everyone’s skin has this fungus—it occurs naturally, even on healthy skin. While the fungus is harmless (the patches are not painful or contagious), it does absorb UV light which would normally penetrate the skin. It is important to note that the fungus did not appear as a result of tanning, it merely becomes noticeable once tanning occurs. It can be remedied through the use of prescription drugs or some other topical lotions. We recommend Selenium sulfide 2.5% strength to be used on the body to treat tinea versicolor.
3) White patches of skin, which are often prominent on the shoulder blades and just above the buttocks, can be caused by pressure from the body as it reclines on a hard surface. This pressure inhibits the flow of blood through that area of the skin. Since blood carries oxygen which is essential to the tanning process, this area does not tan. The solution is simple: periodic shifting or wiggling will make the white patches disappear.
4) Certain medications can react unfavorably with exposue to UV light. For example, birth control pills can cause blotches and uneven pigmentation of the skin.
Phototherapy (or use of UV light) has been effective in easing the skin problems common to this condition. There are many drugs, including tetracycline and Retin-A, which are also widely used for treatment of acne. Because these drugs can render the skin photosensitive, one must avoid UV exposure when medicated. Furthermore, the use of UV light for acne treatment should only be administered by a qualified physician. The Food and Drug Administration prohibits indoor tanning equipment operators from asserting that equipment use is beneficial for any purpose other than obtaining cosmetic coloring.
There exists a growing body of scientific evidence which suggests that some people actually require more light exposure in order to function properly. Exposure to bright light, such as that emitted by the mid-day summer sun, causes the brain to suppress the release of the hormone melatonin. Melatonin acts as a depressant in the body if generated during the daytime. Thus, when affected people are exposed to longer hours of bright light, the feel happier, euphoric and more able to enjoy life. Bright light sources emitting only visible light are now frequently used to treat Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and Sub-syndromal Seasonal Affective Disorder (SSAD). Again, the Food and Drug Administration prohibits indoor tanning equipment operators from asserting that equipment use is beneficial for any purpose other than obtaining cosmetic coloring.
The Food and Drug Administration forbids making representations regarding the benefits of indoor tanning other than its cosmetic benefit. Therefore, one may not make medical claims about indoor tanning equipment.
However, phototherapy (or UV light treatment) can be used to ease the symptoms of psoriasis. The treatment is rendered by a trained physician with equipment specificallt designed for such purpose.
Vitamin D, the “Sunshine Vitamin“, is produced by our skin when we expose our skin to UVB light emitted by the sun and by the vast majority of sunbeds used in indoor tanning salons. While the Food and Drug Administration forbids making representations regarding the benefits of indoor tanning other than its cosmetic benefit, an undeniable physiological side effect of UV expsure is vitamin D production.
While you do not have to become tan for your skin to make vitamin D, peer-reviewed studies have established that sunbed users as a group have significantly higher vitamin D levels when compared with non-tanners. One Canadian study showed that sunbed users in Canada have the highest vitamin D levels in that country, and that most Canadians are vitamin D deficient.
Excessive exposure to UV light can destroy the resilient fibers of the lower skin layer, thereby causing the top skin layer to sag. Thus, elastosis or wrinkling appears. Excessive being the key word here. At Slick Rock, we promote moderate exposure for your face and body in order to maintain a healthy, youthful appearance. We don’t just want you to look great now, but 10 years from now! Thus, we encourage you to be mindful of the areas of your body, such as your face and décolleté, which may receive more exposure on a daily basis simply from driving or walking to and from outside. For this very reason, we aslo suggest using a full-spectrum SPF on days when you will be tanning indoors as well as receiving UV exposure outdoors.
If one makes the decision to tan their face, it is recommended to use a professional tanning lotion designed for the face to protect the delicate facial skin, promote elasticity and fight the chronological signs of aging. Talk to a Tanning Consultant about which tanning lotions are best for your skin type.
Note: All sunbeds at Slick Rock above the Basic level provide optional facial tanners, so those who prefer not to tan their face may turn the facial tanning off during their sessions.

“Skin typing” is a method for determining one’s natural ability to produce melanin. Skin types are hereditary and cannot be altered by outside influences.
At Slick Rock, all of our Wellness Consultants are certified in Skin Typing and will perform a skin type analysis for you before you are ever able to step foot into a sunbed. Based on your skin type and tanning goals, your Wellness Consultant will create a customized tanning plan, called your Perfect Tan Plan, which combines the best UV and sunless tanning equipment, lotions and skin care prodcuts, and exposure schedule in order to help you achieve your desired level of bronze.
Skin types range from Skin Type I (albino) to Skin Type VI (African American). Skin types are classified according to a person’s tendencies to sunburn and/or tan. While all of us, regardless of skin type, have about the same number of melanocytes in our skin, we vary in our ability to product melanin. It is this production capability which results in a certain skin type.
Normally, a person tans indoors only as well as he/she is able to tan outdoors. Yet, those fair-skinned people who generally cannot tolerate the uncontrollable rays of the sun often achieve some color when tanning indoors. This can be attributed to a different spectral output as well as carefully timed tanning sessions in a controlled tanning environment. Skin type, heredity, and individual photosensitivities determine who will have success tanning indoors.
SPF stands for “Sun Protection Factor” and is the standard means of expressing a sunscreen’s effectiveness in protecting the skin. It represents a ratio of the minimal erythemal dose (MED) to the MED on unprotected skin. The SPF valie is the length of time a person can be exposed to UV light when a sunscreen is applied compared to when it is not. For example, an SPF of 15 means one can be exposed 15 times longer with a sunscreen than without it.
Sunblocks are opaque formulations which absorb, reflect and scatter up to 99% of both UV and visible light. They are often used on localized, sun-sensitive areas such as the nose, lips, ears and shoulders. Because they are messy and may stain clothing, sunblocks may not be practical for application over large areas. An example of a sunblock is zinc oxide.
On the other hand, sunscreens absorb specific wavelengths and are classified as drugs by the FDA. Sunscreens are considered more cosmedically refined due to their pleasing consistency and are, therefore, more commonly used to protect from sun overexposure. Sunscreen chemical agents are divided up into three groups: those which absorb UVA, those which primarily absorb UVB and those which absorb both wavelengths. It is preferable to select broadband or full-spectrum sunscreens, as they protect against both UVB and UVA penetration.
At Slick Rock, we carry a few different sunscreens which are formulated with the best skin care ingredients, and will not only protect your skin from overexposure when outside, but promote the longevity of your tan with tan enhancing skin care benefits and no-oil, no-sulfate formulas.
Excessive exposure to any UV light source may increase the risk of skin cancer. If one is predisposed to skin cancer or has a hereditary link, exposure to UV light (indoors or outdoors) should be avoided. It is recommended that all UV exposure be moderate.
There is no conclusive evidence which substantiates that malignant melanoma is caused by gradual, moderate UV exposure. However, those who are predisposed to develop melanoma due to hereditary factors may intensify this condition with exposure to indoor or outdoor UV light.
While some studies have suggested a link between severe sunburn and malignant melanoma, there are other studies available that prove and inverse relationship. In a study published in the International Journal of Cancer in 1989 (known as the Western Canada Melanoma Study), Canadian researchers found a significant inverse association between melanoma and chronic or long-term occupational sun exposure in men, with the lowest risk in those with maximum occupational exposure. This suggests that repeated exposure may be protective. Gradual, moderate exposure is not believed to be a strong influential factor as melanoma generally develops on those areas not normally exposed to UV light.
Photosensitivity can be defined as a chemically induced change in the skin that makes an individual unusually sensitive to light. Photosensitivity may be caused by diseases, allergies, cosmetics and/or medications.
Medications such as psoralen, diuretics, birth control pills, tranquilizers, antibiotics and high blood pressure medicine may also affect one’s photosensitivity. Certain substances such as citrus fruits, celery, cosmetics and soaps can also increase photosensitivity. Harsh disinfectants, some lotions and sunscreens may also cause sensitizing reactions.
For a complete list of photosensitizing agents, see next FAQ.
If you are taking any medications, please consult with your doctor prior to tanning.

Spray tanning is the spray/mist application of tanning solution to your body. When applied, DHA (the active ingredient in Sunless tanning solution) reacts with the proteins in the skin’s superficial layer to form a golden brown color that leaves your skin looking healthy and refreshed. Your skin begins to darken two to three hours after application and reaches its peak color within 16 hours. The color will gradually fade through natural exfoliation, just like a tan from the sun.

No! Slick Rock’s professional and retail sunless tanning products are formulated to provide a natural, bronzed tan. Your Tanning Consultant will help you select the proper level of tanning solution to match your skin tone.
With that said, high pH levels in the skin can sometimes give individuals an undesirable, ‘fake’ or ‘unnatural’ looking sunless color. To prevent this from happening, there are a few things you can do:
Do not use bar soaps before your sunless session. Using a pH balancing skin cleanser will result in more ‘golden brown’ sunless tanning results.
We recommend applying pH balancing Sunless Primer prior to any sunless application. This product is formulated to lower the pH levels of the skin giving a more golden brown color, and maximizing your sunless results.
Do not over-apply sunless products. In general, the darker your natural skin tone, the higher the concentration of DHA (sunless product) you can apply to the skin and still maintain ‘natural’ color. Generally, those with fair/light skin tones should apply less DHA (sunless product) to the skin to ensure natural-looking results.
No. If you are using a sunless solution with a cosmetic bronzer, some of the bronze color may rub off on clothing or bed sheets, but the sunless solution is water soluble and will be removed after the next wash in cold water.
In some instances, DHA in the sunless solution may permanently stain undergarments worn during the spray session, so it is recommended to avoid wearing wool, spandex, lycra, silks or other fine fabrics during or immediately following your sunless visit.
To minimize the chance of the bronzers transferring to clothing, we recommend you wear loose-fitting, darker clothes after your sunless visit. As well, try to refrain from physical exertion that could result in your sweating until you shower and wash off the cosmetic bronzers.
A Sunless tan can last up to 7 days, depending on the formulation you choose and the condition of your skin.
The lifespan of a sunless tan depends on your skin’s natural rate of exfoliation and how well your care for your tan following your Sunless visit. The faster your skin turns over, the faster the sunless tan will fade. The tan created by the DHA affects only the top layer of the skin and will begin to fade after 4 to 5 days as the skin naturally begins to exfoliate.
Following a good skin care regimen before and after sunless tanning will help a sunless tan last longer. Exfoliating prior to a sunless tanning application and keeping skin moisturized afterwards are essential. Sunless tan-extending products with a light self-tanning bronzer help hydrate skin and maintain even, natural-looking color longer. Talk to a Wellness Consultant about our full line of Sunless maintenance products.
Many individual factors can contribute to patchy or uneven wear-off, as each person’s skin is different. It is best to follow our preparation and maintenance guide for maximum sunless results.
Be sure to gently polish the skin before each sunless session using an oil and sulfate-free exfoliant.
Keep skin hydrated on the inside and out. Use a tan-extending formula desgined to enhance and extend your professional spray tanning results.
It is also recommended that individuals not tan more than 3 times in a 2 week period to avoid build-up of tanning solution that will contribute to uneven wear-off. For frequent sunless tanning clients, we recommend using an Exfo-Mitt or professional salt scrub 1 to 2 times per month to remove sunless tanning build-up.
Talk to a Wellness Consultant about our full line of Sunless maintenance products. We recommend sticking with our professional maintenance products as they are formulated with the same ingredients as our sunless solution and will help maintain consistent, even color. Over-the-counter products are not formulated with the same ingredients and may create uneven or blotchy post-tan fading.
We recommend that you sunless tan no more than 3 times in a 2 week period, to avoid build-up of DHA (sunless tanning solution) in the skin that will contribute to uneven wear-off.
This allows a complete cycle of natural exfoliation and eliminates patchiness or uneven areas of wear, such as around the waist, inside the arms where the elbow bends, underarms, and backs of knees. These are natural areas of the body where friction from clothing and daily activities may cause premature exfoliation.
In addition, sunless spray tanning too frequently may cause the skin to exfoliate more rapidly (decreasing the longevity of your sunless tan), as over-application can alter the skin’s pH levels, causing it to shed more frequently.
Most people will not see any affect to the color of their hair; however, those with light blonde, gray or platinum hair may see some temporary discoloration from the cosmetic bronzers. This discoloration will easily wash out the first time you shower.
For those with lighter hair we recommended wearing a hair cap during your sunless session.
Note: when wearing a hair cap, make sure to pull the cap back to expose the edge of hairline and tuck the cap behind the ears. Otherwise you will create an unnatural tan line around the forehead and temples.
Our Sunless solutions are non-toxic and utilize only the best DHA which has been rigorously tested before entering any formulation. All of our sunless solutions are:
With all of the above being said, Slick Rock does not staff licensed physicians; therefore, as you would before using any product on an expectant mother, we recommend each guest consult with their physician before receiving a DHA sunless spray tan application.
Sunless color is not a “cover-up”, but rather a blend. It is important to remember that areas of untanned skin will become darker following a Sunless tanning session, but so will already-tanned areas. Therefore, while a Sunless tan will help camoflauge any tan lines by blending the natural skin color and the sunless color, the areas may remain two-toned. Guests looking to darken only the lighter skin will need to take care and apply solution to these areas only, and may be best served with any of the retail self-tanning products we carry. Please talk to a Wellness Consultant for details.
Yes! Since sunless tanning is UV-free, you are welcome to tan either before or following your sunless visit. In fact, we recommend it. At Slick Rock, we call this combination of UV and sunless tanning a “Tanning Cocktail”.
First, you’ll spend a relaxing session in our LED bed. The LED bed uses revolutionary UV tanning technology and is the very best Slick Rock has to offer for those looking to achieve a deep base tan in the fewest number of visits. Once your Instant session is complete, you’ll immediately follow it up with a sunless session. The warmth of your skin will help the sunless solution to be absorbed more effectively, dry faster, and the boost of color you get from the LED bed will help your sunless tan last longer and look even better!
Tanning Cocktails are perfect for achieving flawless, instant color when you need it most, like prepping for a wedding or event, or even helping deliver the immediate results you want while building a base tan.
If you are concerned with a possible allergic or skin reaction to the solution, we recommend you first patch test a small area of the skin prior to a full-body session. For a full list of ingredients, click here.

The floatation experience is delivered through a super-saturated Epsom-salt solution, 10″ deep and containing 1200lbs of magnesium-rich Epsom-salts.
The solution is heated to skin temperature (96°F) and the environment in the tank is controlled so that the air is also skin temperature. Once you are settled, it is impossible to tell which parts of your body are in the water and which are not.
This creates an environment similar to that of the Dead Sea but without the sensation of temperature or movement, which lets you float effortlessly on the surface of the water, enjoying a feeling of total freedom & weightlessness!
Our float pods are specifically designed to block out all external distractions including sight, sound, tactile sensations, and gravity. This environment brings long-lasting and transformational experiences.
Floating has become increasingly popular as more people have learned about floatation therapy’s remarkable benefits.
Your first float might feel like magic, however floatation therapy is the result of thirty years of mainstream scientific research in human performance and wellness.
Best of all, the effects of floatation are cumulative and the more often you float, the better it is for your health, happiness, and performance.
Research consistently demonstrates that floatation therapy has a significant impact on mood enhancement. Suggested reasons for this increased level of happiness include elevated levels of dopamine and endorphins, through to the deep meditative state achieved during floatation therapy.
The National Institute of Health (NIH) supports meditation as a means for lowering blood pressure, easing symptoms of anxiety and depression, and more. Research from fMRI studies shows that meditating causes activity in parts of the brain associated with attention and decreases activity in the amygdala, which is responsible for our flight or fight response.
The latest floatation therapy research shows that during floatation, the amygdala basically shuts off, ‘turning down’ anxiety in the brain. The more you float, the better you get at achieving this state. Floating delivers the deepest of meditative states to those who are not experts in meditation, so that everyone can enjoy the benefits.
Floatation can specifically be used to target pain and trauma. Studies have shown floatation to successfully relieve the painful symptoms associated with PTSD, relieve the strenuous elements of pregnancy and help with chronic migraines.
Simply put, floating calms our overly stimulated systems and restores the body’s chemical and metabolic balance.

The high saline content of the floatation environment ensures that nothing harmful can survive within the tank. The water within the tank is automatically filtered between each customer (and 24-hours a day when not in use). The water is filtered through a 1 micron pool filter (that’s 1/100th the diameter of a human hair!) and is sanitized with a small amount of disinfectant and UV light.
Epsom salt is actually magnesium sulphate, a pure, time-tested mineral compound with dozens of uses. Health benefits include soothing muscle aches, reducing inflammation and treating sunburn.
Many clients do fall asleep in the pods, either purposely, or due to the deep relaxation. Just one hour of floating is equivalent to 2-3 hours of deep sleep. Many of our clients who suffer from insomnia or jet lag get immense relief from floating.
We provide white fluffy towels, earplugs, organic shampoo, conditioner and shower gel, and a packet of Vaseline to protect any small cuts or scrapes.
What you need to bring: any personal toiletries such as hand or face creams and a comb if required. If you wear contacts, it is always a good idea to bring contact solution and a case to store your contact lenses.
Swimsuits: many people ask us if they need to bring something to wear in the pod. You have your own private room so we suggest floating without anything on to be completely free—but it is up to you!
Of course. Just follow the same process you would for swimming.
The more regularly you float the better. Just like any activity, the more you practice the better you become, and the more cumulative effects you will see.
Please inform us of all health conditions. If you have a heart condition or wear a pacemaker, asthma, allergies (particularly to salt, bromine or magnesium), or very low blood pressure, we recommend that you seek approval from a medical practitioner before floating.
If you suffer from epilepsy or schizophrenia, we’re sorry but you cannot float as it is too risky. If you have an ear infection you should wait until it is cleared up and then make sure you use the earplugs provided. If your health condition changes at any point, please let us know.
People with claustrophobia consistently report no problems with floating. You’re always in control of your environment and can choose to float with the pod open and room lights on.
The high buoyancy of the water makes it impossible for the individual to go beneath the surface. Once settled, it even becomes difficult to touch the bottom of the pod with your hand just beneath you.
Most people don’t wear anything when floating, and this is what we recommend as well. Anything you wear while floating will become heavy with Epsom salt and cause a distraction during your float.
Not only is it safe but it’s encouraged! Some say floating is “a pregnancy must!” Floating allows you to escape the added stress and weight of pregnancy by being in a weightless environment, taking the strain off of your body. We have also heard testimonies that it is an awesome way to bond with your baby.
You must be over the age of 16 (children under the age of 16 are not permitted to float due to health and safety requirements).
A 15-minute session, 1-2x per week is ideal and can really ensure that you realize the benefits of HydroMassage—including increased circulation, decreased blood pressure, reduced stress and tension, and better sleep. If you have an injury, complete a tough workout, or participate in a strenuous activity that causes you pain and soreness, it is the perfect time to use HydroMassage in order to minimize soreness and help speed your muscle recovery.
HydroMassage is “The Best DAILY Massage” for the following reasons:
You can have an unlimited massage for less than $20 per treatment. Compared to hands-on-massage, HydroMassage is substantially more affordable.
You don’t have to get undressed. You can enjoy your massage fully clothed and comfortable.
You can enjoy HydroMassage in just 15 minutes; so enjoy one before or after work, during your lunch break… or anytime!
With the HydroMassage touchscreen, you can watch videos and listen to music during your massage.
HydroMassage provides many of the same benefits to health as conventional massage; plus the added bonus of heat via the warm water.
A 15-minute HydroMassage provides comparable benefits to a 60-minute hands-on massage.

Red Light Therapy is defined as wavelengths of light between 620nm and 700nm. The Beauty Angel emits light in the 611-650nm spectrum.
Visible red light is capable of penetrating the skin to a depth of about 8 to 10 mm. Once absorbed, the light energy is converted to cellular energy, stimulating the body’s natural processes on a cellular level and kicking off a whole series of metabolic events, including:
All of these things work together to produce many benefits for you in the areas of anti-aging, the healing of wounds and injuries, and the relief of pain.
Learn the top 5 Benefits of Red Light Therapy, and deep dive the 7 Reasons Medical-Grade Red Light Therapy Is the Next Evolution for Skin, Recovery & Wellness.
We’ve all seen those before and after pictures, but let’s set the expectation properly. After a Beauty Angel treatment, certain things happen right away while other things take longer. For example, you may have a healthier, more radiant glow within minutes following each treatment.
Over time, Red Light from the Beauty Angel will:
It is important to remember that any imperfections that were gained slowly and over time will fade in the same way—slowly, over time. Gradually, uneven redness and spider veins will diminish. Collagen and elastin will increase with each treatment, slowing smoothing out any fine lines and wrinkles. These changes happen so gradually you may not notice, but others will. It will take about 8 weeks of consistent treatment to realize any significant, visible “before and after” type results.
It is recommended to use the Beauty Angel 2-3 times per week for best results.
Based on clinical trials, significant anti-aging benefits and skin rejuvenation are achieved after a period of 12 weeks, completing 2-3 treatments per week.
Both systems utilize infrared heat, so engaging in these two the same day would present a risk of overheating and/or becoming dehydrated. Thus, for liability purposes, these treatments may not be utilized within the same day.
Both are beneficial!
Enjoying a skin hydration treatment prior to tanning will help prepare the skin for UV light, allowing increased absorption of the applied tanning accelerator as well as better penetration of UV light, thus results in better tanning results.
Doing a skin hydration treatment after a tanning session will help prolong tanning results and protect the color by replenishing moisture in the skin and promoting long-lasting hydration. Remember: Moist skin accepts, dry skin reflects, and healthy, hydrated skin is the foundation of a beautiful, glowing tan.
Deep dive into our Skin Hydration solutions.
We recommend 1-2 Skin Hydration sessions per week for best results. Since each treatment combines heat and steam, which open and cleanse the pores, removing toxins and environmental build up, more frequent treatments may lead to removing the natural oils and moisture in the skin, resulting in drier skin. This may seem counter-intuitive since this treatment is called Skin Hydration; however, much like shampooing hair, we want to cleanse and replenish, not cleanse and deplete. So for the best results and longest-lasting hydration, stick to 1-2 sessions per week.
Yes, sauna sessions are booked privately. If you’d like, you may bring up to two (2) guests to join you in the sauna for just $5 additional per person.
Make yourself comfortable! A bathing suit or birthday suit is appropriate. We’ll provide you with a robe and towels for your convenience.
Definitely! Our saunas can accommodate up to three people, so you may bring up to two additional guests to enjoy your sauna session with you for just $5 per guest.
Near-infrared (NIR) is the shortest infrared wavelength and promotes skin renewal, cell health, wound healing, and tissue growth.
Mid-infrared (MIR) is a longer wavelength that can penetrate deeper into the body’s soft tissue where inflammation occurs and speeds up the healing process.
The longest wavelength, far-infrared (FIR), reaches deepest into the body, where toxins are stored. This is the primary wavelength emitted by our saunas at Slick Rock.
Click here to learn more about the benefits of our Halo Infrared Sauna.
It is safe to use the infrared sauna every day, however, many of our members partake in a 30-minute session 3-4 times per week, as their schedules allow.
We recommend using the infrared sauna at least 2-3 times weekly to enjoy its detoxifying benefits. You may wish to start your detox regimen with just one or two sessions per week and for only 10 to 15 minutes maximum. As you increase your comfort level in the infrared sauna, you may increase the time and frequency of use.

Anytime after your first automatic payment, you can talk to a Wellness Consultant (in person) where you’ll sign a form and they’ll freeze your account. Please note, the last day to make account changes is the 25th of each month in order to take effect by your next billing cycle.
While your account is frozen, an automatic $5 freeze payment (plus tax) will be applied to your account on the first of each month.

If you wish to reactivate earlier than 6 months, simply come in and talk to a Sales Consultant.
The freeze payments you made will be credited back to you in the form of Freeze Credit. Freeze Credit can be used toward products or service upgrades once you unfreeze your membership. That’s it! No penalties, no new enrollment fees, and no change of terms. You’ll get right back to tanning and wellness just as you had before.
Note: after unfreezing your membership, additional changes such as another freeze period, cancellation, or downgrading can be made after your first autopay goes through.
If you need to take a break from tanning, we offer a convenient freeze option for up to 6 months. Anytime after your first automatic payment, you can talk to a Wellness Consultant to freeze your membership. While your plan is frozen, an automatic $5 freeze payment will be applied to your account each month. When you’re ready to start tanning again, simply come in to re-activate your plan. (If you wait the full maximum of 6 months—don’t worry—your membership will automatically reactivate on month 7.)
The freeze payments you made will be credited back as Freeze Credit, which can be used toward upgrades, spa services, skin care products and more. That’s it! No penalties, no new enrollments, no change of terms. You’ll get right back to tanning just as you had before.
Still need to cancel? In order to completely terminate your autopay plan, you will need to stop into any Slick Rock location and talk to a Wellness Consultant.

If, in the off chance, there is a billing error, we will need proof of cancellation to process any refunds. Please note, the last day for account changes such as membership cancellation is the 25th of each month. Be sure to stop in on or before the 25th of the month to avoid incurring a final monthly charge.

Our services are designed to promote your well-being and support you in looking and feeling great all of the time, not just before special occasions like an upcoming vacation or wedding. That said, because our no-commitment membership plans require just one automatic payment before freezing or cancelling, you are welcome to enjoy our services short-term by enrolling in your choice of membership, and then freezing or cancelling after your first automatic payment. You’ll still pay our annual facilities fee, of course, as well as any applicable enrollment fee, but even with those additional fees considered, we’re confident that you’ll receive the best value for your time and money with our state-of-the-art equipment, expert team, convenience, and 100% Cleanliness Guarantee.
Once you’ve enrolled in the membership plan of your choice, the rest of your payments are set up to be handled automatically each month. We can bill automatically to a credit card or debit card—just make sure to bring the necessary information when you get started. Then, we’ll bill you at the same time each month, so you can relax when you come in for sessions, knowing you’ve already paid!
Automatic payments are processed on the 1st of each month. We like to keep it simple, so this is the only automatic billing date.
Pre-payments are welcome and must be made prior to the first of each month. If you would prefer your monthly membership dues to be paid on the 15th, for example, all you need to do is pre-pay for the following month on the 15th of each month.
You are welcome to pay as many months in advance as you would like.
We may re-process dishonored payments up to five times during the month. You may see your payment post to your account on a date other than the 1st of the month if the automatic payment is declined on the 1st attempt.
Of course! It’s easy… just stop by one of our spa locations and speak with a Wellness Consultant. Bring your credit card or debit card with you, and the Wellness Consultant will help get your account updated so you can get back to your wellness routine. For any problems or questions, please contact our Client Support team.
