Hold your breath, close your eyes, assume the position, tan! At Sun 7 they offer booth tanning, professional spray tans and unfortunately solariums. This isn’t a salon but a hardcore tanning studio. I would avoid the solariums(also known as cancer machines) and for the less health yet beauty inclined they cause wrinkles, moles, freckles, discolourations, sagging etc. Used the mystic booth, got the extra dark for $ 25. Gives a medium tan. Private room. Tan dries quickly, they have a fan, moisturiser, shower caps, baby wipes and towels for your use(there is a basket outside the door to put your used towels in). Friendly customer service, they explain to you what to do. Bring flip flops, loose dark clothing and don’t go when it’s raining. Make sure you exfoliate and shave/wax before hand. Put the moisturiser heavily on your palms, soles of your feet, cuticles and nails and lightly on your elbows and knees. I also use the baby wipes to wipe any tan off my face as I prefer to use bronzer to make my face look tanned. Decide whether you will use the shower cap to cover your ears or not. The tan can last a week if you exfoliated properly, keep body wash and swimming in water to a minimum and avoid scrubbing the skin. To keep your tan looking fresh, apply moisturiser morning and night(I prefer non-tanning moisturiser). Pro tip: When using the booth, if you have big boobs make sure to lift your arms up high to get underneath them as well bend over so the spray can get under your butt cheeks. Great for when you want a mess free, awesome spray tan without anyone seeing you naked. Has website with prices, under eighteens get a discount. Open 6 days a week and late during the week until 7 pm except for Thursday and Friday which is open until 8 pm and on Saturday they close at 5 pm with all last session ending 30 minutes before close.

Always one to be weary of having another person spray liquid over me which has the potential to stain my skin a brilliant shade of orange, I feel 100 percent at ease at Sun 7. Having decided that my skin was a tad too blinding after emerging from the depths of winter, I ventured to Sun 7 to create the illusion that I’d spent the past three months on a tropical island. The place is always buzzing with beautifully tanned bodies, so it’s good to book at least a week in advance to ensure you can secure a session. The appointment takes about ten minutes all up(including drying time) and is surprisingly enjoyable(similar to standing outside naked on a rainy day…). Be sure to wear loose clothing afterwards or you risk indenting unslightly marks on your skin. A gradual tan will build up over about four hours, and after a shower, you will be left with a beautiful, sunkissed tan. Skin cancer-free and without a splash of orange in sight! Well priced as well — $ 30 for a spray tan. It lasts anywhere between one and three weeks(depending on where you put your skin).
