Tan Topping
Tan topping is a strategic approach to maintaining a desired skin tone, particularly relevant for individuals using sunbeds or spray tans. Unlike a full tanning session which aims to build a base tan or achieve a deeper colour, a tan topping session is significantly shorter and often uses a lower intensity setting on a sunbed. The primary goal is to replenish the melanin that naturally fades over time or to boost the colour of a spray tan that has started to diminish. This technique is highly effective for clients who want to prolong the visual impact of their tan without overexposure. For spray tan clients, it can mean a light misting over areas that fade fastest, like hands and feet, or a full, light application. For sunbed users, it's about maintaining the colour achieved from previous sessions, preventing the tan from completely disappearing and keeping the skin looking consistently bronzed. It's a cost-effective and time-efficient way to manage tanning results.
