Summer is the time for beachy hair, less makeup, and that sought after killer bronzed babe glow. There is no fooling around when it comes to the tan competition. You know, that silent competition that nobody talks about buy everyone is aware of? Yeah, we all want to claim that title of the bronziest babe in the girl squad.
For me, I am the girl who will sit in the sun all day and let my skin absorb the UV rays like no other…without sunscreen. It is gonna come back to bite me in the ass sooner than I would hope, but I just love being tan, there is no other excuse. That is why I have fallen in love with the airbrushing at Cactus Club Tanning.
Cactus Club Tanning in Burien isn’t your big commercial tanning salon, and that is one of the reasons I love it there. The staff is super friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating and the whole place is very clean and inviting. Not only that, but the results of my tan were far better than any experience I have had at Seattle Sun Tan, where I have previously gotten my spray tans.
I decided on the airbrush tan by the technician followed by a quick 4 minutes in the Diva Stand Up. Seriously, best tan I have ever gotten. The whole process was super easy and quick and I left glowing. I followed up a week later with another airbrush to lock in the first tan which they recommend for the best long lasting results. I can say my tan lasted for almost 3 weeks and eventually just naturally faded.
If you are looking for a quick tan, or if you are too impatient to wait and bake in the sun, or just looking for a glow, this is your place. I am hooked. I can’t wait to try the redlight therapy which is supposed to have many great benefits!
