"Hi, I'm Harvey Woodyatt, owner of Perfect Tan here in Orem Utah. We're a full service tanning salon with over twenty tanning beds as well as a state of the art spray on tanning system. I often get asked, "How do I get a fake tan?" You know a fake tan could be anything. You know, you can get a real tan in a tanning salon by using these tanning beds. But, that's something that's a process. It's going to take some time. If you want a fake tan quick I suggest a spray on system. A lot of tanning salons have them out there. There's different variations. Our tanning system if state of the art. It has a four pass system with blow drying systems, dry you off nice and neat and everybody gets a good deep, dark tan without having to tan outside or without having to tan in a tanning bed. A lot of people use these for either dates, dances, weddings. We get a lot of spray on tan. Or even people that just want to look good. Usually a good fake or spray on tan will last you a good seven days. We always suggest again that, you know, you stay moisturized at home. You know, it will actually hold your tan a little bit longer if you do that. But, a fake tan would basically be a spray on tan and those are readily available at many tanning salons."
