Take your hair style to the next level

I can almost guarantee you; your hair stylist cannot give you the hottest hair style if they lack a real-world learning environment – It takes more than knowing the latest trends and techniques – just as critical are scheduling and communicating effectively with clients.

How to Avoid the Dangers of Tanning Beds

Sunlamps and tanning beds are big business because they promise you a bronzed body year-round, but the ultraviolet (UV) radiation you receive from these devices poses serious health risks to your skin.



FDA scientist and international experts on UV radiation, explain why it's important to avoid exposure to UV radiation from devices such as tanning beds, tanning booths, and portable home tanning units – May 24, 2010

You may experience both short and long term effects of UV exposure. 2.3 million teens visit tanning salons in the U.S. every year and risk the dangers of tanning beds. Because the FDA estimates that about 38,000 people will be diagnosed with melanoma this year in the U.S. and 7,300 people will die from this condition, it is important that you know the facts about UV radiation and find a sunless tanning solution near you.
Exposure to UV radiation, whether from the sun or indoor tanning beds, can cause:

• Skin cancer
• Skin burns
• Premature skin aging
• Eye damage (both short- and long-term)

We use Bronze Biologic tanning solutions at Troy Richard Salon to help you avoid the dangers of tanning beds and sunless tanning has been one of our core services for many years. Our sunless tanning consultants are well trained and experienced at sunless tan applications with the ability to give you recommendations that make sure you receive a sunless tan that last longer.

Make your sunless tan appointment of call Troy Richard Salon at 214-618-8071 or send email to hair@troyrichardsalon.com for more information.


Love your look.

Troy Richard Salon : Safe Tan Experience in Frisco

The safe tan experience in Frisco

Tanning and and keeping your healthy looking, bronze skin has become a way of life for more than 1 million people a day who are baking themselves under tanning lamps.
The July 1, 2010 Tanning Tax may not be of much concern to you, because you will do whatever it take to have that "just back from the beach" tan. Because others might want to bypass the Health care bill tanning tax, sunless tanning can still keep your skin bronze and become the safe tan experience you will adopt.

The Health care bill imposes 10% tax on tanning salon customers and will apply to electronic products designed for tanning that use one or more ultraviolet lamps with wavelengths between 200 and 400 nanometers. Because sunless tanning options such as spray tans and tanning lotions are not included in the tax, some tanning salons will of course be looking for sunless tanning products to satisfy disappointed customers who don't want to pay extra for tanning.



At Troy Richard Salon, we use Bronze BioLogic sunless tanning products. Because sunless tanning has been one of our core services from the beginning, our sunless tanning consultants are well trained and experienced at sunless tan applications.

There are many health benefits after going sunless. For starters, because your sunless tan will last for 7 - 10 days you will not have to visit several times a week. Here are more Bronze BioLogic Sunless Tan advantages you will enjoy:

• Bronze BioLogic solutions are safe for your skin because they are manufactured with a proper ph and contain only natural occurring preservatives, for stability and shelf life, which is an important factor that many companies overlook and may be the reason why many of them turn orange, green, or some other un-natural looking color.

• Bronze Biologic is NOT an ordinary airbrush system because it can be applied by your tanning technician in about 5 to 8 minutes. And you will experience a new revolutionary application technology that will ensure your tan is applied evenly and properly. The Bronze Biologic system is much more sophisticated than air brush technology because it covers your body much more effectively.

• Bronze Biologic is a fully integrated company with headquarters, warehouses, and offices in Dallas, Texas. They control and manage every aspect of our business from manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution.

• You will receive an immediate, all natural looking tan that will continue to develop and become darker over the next 6 to 12 hours. The tan will reach its maximum color within 24 hours.

Troy Richard Salon offers you purity, safety, high quality ingredients, and state of the art sunless tanning technology. Make sunless tan appointment here or call the salon to speak to a sunless tanning consultant.

Love your look.
