Island Time Tanning Opens in the Gorham Area with Tanning Options Available

Island Time Tanning announced today the opening of a new Island Tanning Salon serving Gorham, Maine. Island Time Tanning already serves the greater Saco and Biddeford area. With the new Island Tanning in Gorham, visitors can now enjoy Island Tanning's many options in Gorham. 

With four successful years at the Saco/Biddeford location, Island Tanning Gorham offers consumers many tanning programs and a professional staff of tan advisors to make the tanning experience fun and successful. The new Gorham site is meticulously clean and the staff is friendly and educated. 

Island Tanning's on-line process takes customers through a pre-exam to identify gender, skin tone, skin sensitivity to light and skin type. After ascertaining the experience level of the customer, Island Tanning proceeds to establish a personal shade goal to work toward. This creates a time frame the visitor feels comfortable with and takes into account the customer's natural hair color. It also establishes the reason for getting a tan. Island Tanning offers different monthly specials, time memberships and unit charges spelled out on their site. 

Rather than send customers through a one-tan fits all tanning solution, Island Tanning treats each individual as a unique set of values. A fair, sensitive skinned male with blond hair who wants a quick tan for a hot date will get a different treatment than a dark-haired woman with medium skin planning a vacation in the Virgin Islands in three months.

The analysis also includes some tips for better tanning, like use cross tanning to avoid tanning lines. Plateauing can be avoided by using a cross lotion. For visitors who are really tan, Island Tanning Gorham recommends using a tan extending lotion that includes a bronzer.

Recommended equipment ranges from 15 minute superbed to high pressure units for instant tans. In total, there are four levels. At level three, visitors can experience nine minute turbo booths, and at level two, they can try simple turbo booths, and each successive level gives visitors a deeper, darker tan. 

The tanning bed offers an even all around tan and the visitor enjoys cool air from a circulating fan. Overall, it's a comfortable tanning experience. The cost is nominal for a tanning bed and can be part of an Island Tanning's monthly special or a membership price. The upright super turbo booths are as powerful as a tanning bed times four, and a typical ten minute visit is only two dollars more, or it can be part of a monthly special or a membership price. The upright, 200 watt Diva Tower gives visitors a remarkably dark tan in four to six visits. The cost to visitors is three dollars more than a sunbed and a visit and can be part of a monthly special or a membership package. Finally, to get an instant tan, a high pressure tanning unit with engineered 360 degree is available to deliver the ultimate tanning experience. At the price of $15 a visit, it is affordable, and it can be part of a monthly special or a membership package.

Memberships and monthly specials can put the tanning experience easily with reach of many visitors. With a charge taken from a debit or credit card every month, a visitor can use many if not all of the available equipment under their membership charge. There is a four month minimum membership requirement. Prices start at 19.99 for students and 24.99 for visitors for a basic membership, and go up from there to a price of $64.99 for visitors at the top of the membership. The basic membership includes full access to a tanning bed and lotion. The top membership includes full access to any machine, 20% discounts on lotion and a guest pass.
