How long should a typical tanning session last for novice clients?

For novice clients, a typical tanning session should last between 10 to 15 minutes. This duration is recommended because new tanners have more sensitive skin and may not be accustomed to UV exposure. Starting with shorter sessions helps minimize the risk of overexposure and sunburn while allowing them to assess their tanning response. It’s essential for beginner tanners to gradually build their tolerance to UV light, making short initial sessions a safe and effective approach. This strategy also promotes healthy tanning practice, allowing clients to achieve their desired results without compromising skin health.
