Live offers the services of a ‘lay down’ solarium. The room is available for use during club hours (6am to 9pm weekdays) which makes your tanning experience more convenient and private than ever before.

At Live we recognise that as an informed adult the use of solariums for their convenience maybe advantages in our ever increasing busy lifestyles.

We strongly endorse all industry guidelines and abide by them. We encourage users to be well informed by providing all relevant information on solarium use.

What do I need to know?
The first thing you need to know is that sun beds omit similar ultraviolet light to the sun, so if your skin is very fair or sensitive and sun burns easily then the similar effect will occur with a sun bed. You will be asked to fill out a ‘skin type analyses’ before using the sun bed, if your rating is unsuitable than we do not recommend tanning in the solarium.

For most other skin tones you will need to start with a short exposure time and then increase it very gradually so that you don’t experience burning.

You can tan up to once every 48 hours as this is the amount of time you will need to allow your tan to fully develop. You can build up your tan by going to an indoor tanning facility three times a week. When you have achieved your tan, you can maintain it by tanning once or twice a week. It will usually take a few tanning sessions to notice your tan, so if you’re planning a trip away we recommend starting your tanning sessions up to three weeks prior.

EYE PROTECTION is compulsory at our centre and you will be required to purchase or supply your own on commencing tanning. Closing your eyelids is not adequate protection as your eyelids are too thin to stop ultra violet light.

TANNING LOTIONS are highly recommended as they are specifically designed for the indoor tanning industry; they contain ingredients to assist in achieving maximum tanning results. These lotions are designed not only to maximise and accelerate great tanning results, but most importantly replace essential nutrients, minerals and lost moisture to your skin. Lotions also contain antioxidants to shield free radical damage.

What do I wear? Please feel free to wear whatever you are comfortable in (or nothing!) during tanning, your bathers or underwear is fine.
