Which clients should avoid tanning altogether?

Clients with skin conditions should avoid tanning altogether because tanning can exacerbate or trigger skin issues, leading to potential complications. Conditions such as eczema, rosacea, psoriasis, and other dermatological concerns can become inflamed or worsened by UV exposure. Additionally, certain skin conditions may be more sensitive to sun exposure, resulting in painful symptoms or adverse reactions.

For individuals dealing with such skin-related concerns, it’s crucial to prioritize their skin health by avoiding tanning, which can ultimately lead to more severe medical issues. Consulting a dermatologist is often recommended to develop a safe skincare routine tailored to their specific condition, which may include avoiding tanning and protecting the skin from UV rays entirely.

In contrast, clients seeking a natural tan, those looking to tan for a specific event, and clients who only use sunscreen are more focused on the desired effect of tanning and may not necessarily be considering the health implications that apply specifically to clients with underlying skin conditions.
