Not only can airbrush tanning give you an attractive bronze veneer, but it also is a safe alternative to virtually every other method of tanning. Tanning beds expose us to damaging UV rays. There are two types of UV rays, and they both can be detrimental in their own way. 

UVA, or long wave radiation, are the rays that penetrate deep into the body and can create a host of medical problems. The more damaging rays, however, are more likely UVB, also known as short wave radiation. These rays are the ones that cause sunburn and create the most severe skin cancer, malignant melanoma.
