Hybrid UV Tanning at Island Glow
Smarter tanning. Science-based light. Faster results.
​
Welcome to the next generation of tanning technology. In 2026, Island Glow is proud to introduce the most advanced UV tanning experience available — a Hybrid UV + Red Light system designed for clients who want beautiful color, skin-supporting benefits, and efficient sessions.
Island Glow offers the ONLY KBL Hybrid Tan Tower in all of our local markets — making this the smartest, most innovative way to tan in Central Virginia.
​
What Is Hybrid UV Tanning?
Hybrid tanning combines controlled UVB exposure (to stimulate natural melanin production) with red light therapy (to support skin health, recovery, and collagen activity) — all in one session.
Instead of traditional tanning that focuses only on color, hybrid technology tans smarter, helping your skin respond better while supporting long-term wellness and appearance.
​
Beautiful Color in Just 2–11 Minutes
With the KBL Hybrid Tan Tower, you can achieve a deep, even glow in as little as 2–11 minutes per session, just a couple times per week.
Why hybrid tanning is more efficient:
-
Optimized UVB wavelengths stimulate melanin more effectively
-
Red light supports circulation and cellular activity
-
Shorter sessions = smarter exposure
-
More even, longer-lasting color
Less time. Better results.
​
The Science of Tanning Smart: Sunburn Prevention!
Tanning smart means working with your skin — not against it.
Hybrid UV technology supports:
-
Controlled UVB exposure for natural color development
-
Red light therapy to reduce oxidative stress
-
Improved skin response and appearance
-
Better color retention and fade
This science-based approach allows clients to tan more efficiently with fewer sessions, while supporting overall skin wellness.
​
Built-In Red Light Therapy Benefits
Every hybrid session includes red light therapy, known in the wellness world for its recovery and anti-aging benefits.
Red light therapy helps:
-
Support collagen and elastin production
-
Improve skin texture and tone
-
Increase circulation
-
Reduce inflammation and skin stress
You’re not just tanning — you’re giving your skin supportive light therapy at the same time.
​
Tan & Tone at the Same Time: Vibration Floor Therapy
Island Glow elevates the hybrid tanning experience even further by combining each session with Vibration Floor Therapy.
While you tan, vibration therapy helps:
-
Activate muscles
-
Improve circulation
-
Support lymphatic movement
-
Enhance muscle tone and engagement
It’s multi-tasking wellness — tan, tone, and stimulate the body simultaneously.
​
The “Cocktail Tan” Finish: UV + Spray
For clients who want the ultimate glow, we recommend finishing your weekly UV sessions with a custom spray tan add-on.
This “cocktail-style” tanning approach:
-
Builds a natural UV base
-
Adds instant depth and perfection with spray tan
-
Enhances color for weekends, events, or vacations
-
Creates a richer, more polished finish
It’s the glow upgrade your weekend plans deserve.
