🔴 Let's talk about the Beauty Angel: honestly.

We're not going to tell you it'll erase your wrinkles or transform your skin overnight. That's not how it works, and it's not how we operate.

Here's what the research actually suggests:

The Beauty Angel RVT 30 uses 633 nm red light: a wavelength studied in multiple peer-reviewed clinical trials. That research found it may activate fibroblasts (your skin's collagen-producing cells), support cellular energy production, and help reduce post-UV inflammation. Several studies observed real improvements in skin texture and elasticity with consistent use over weeks.

The key word is consistent. Occasional use probably won't do much. Regular sessions , 2 to 3 times a week over 90 days, is where the evidence points.

What we won't promise: specific results. Skin is individual. Results vary. This is a wellness tool, not a medical treatment.

What we will say: it's UV-free, non-invasive, and well-tolerated by all skin types. Pairing it with your UV tanning session — tan first, red light after — is supported by the science around post-UV skin recovery. We call it the Beauty Cocktail. Your skin works for the glow. The Beauty Angel helps it recover.

12 minutes. Zero UV. Your skin doing what it does: just with a little help from the right wavelength of light. ☀️

⚡ Why does Chinook Glow start sessions so short?

Short answer: our bulbs are powerful. Like, really powerful.

Our Sun Capsule X7 and X8 both run 220-watt VHR high-pressure lamps : the same commercial-grade technology used in the strongest stand-up booths in the industry. Most tanning studios in southern Alberta run equipment that maxes sessions at 9–12 minutes. Ours cap at 7–8 minutes : because they don't need to run longer.

So when you come in for the first time, here's what to expect:

🟢 New or infrequent tanners — we start you at 2 minutes
🟡 Experienced tanners — we start you at 3 minutes

Even if you've tanned regularly somewhere else, our equipment is likely stronger than what you're used to. We build up your time gradually once we know your skin is responding well.

We also strongly recommend 48 hours between sessions (Alberta's legal minimum is 24 hrs — we go further because these bulbs earn it). Bookings that are too close together or at unapproved session lengths may be cancelled — no exceptions. We'd rather adjust your schedule than have you leave with a burn.

Your glow is worth doing right. We'll make sure of it. ☀️

✨ Thank You, Raymond! ✨

The response to our Founder’s Memberships has been incredible, and we are so grateful for the support from our community.

Our UV Glow Founder’s Membership will no longer be available to the general public for purchase by **end of day WED, June 3**

The exception to this:
Raymond Fitness members
• Bridge City Fitness members
• Anyone who placed a UV Glow Founder’s deposit before we opened on June 1

Founder’s Memberships with spots still available are:

✨ Wellness — 4 spots
✨ Silver — 2 spots
🔥 Sauna Sanctuary — 7 spots
✨ Gold — 4 spots
🌾 All Access — 3 spots

These Founder’s rates will remain available to the general public until **Thursday, June 4th** and will remain live on Vagaro until that time. Afterward, all memberships will return to their intended regular pricing.

Not looking for a membership? We also offer session packages & tanning minute packages, allowing you to enjoy Chinook Glow on your own schedule.

Our SunCapsule X7 and X8 tanning units feature powerful **220W VHR HP lamps**, allowing for efficient tanning sessions with maximum session lengths of just 7 and 8 minutes. Significant session times are not required to achieve results.

Both SunCapsule manufacturer exposure schedules and Health Canada recommendations (minimally 24 hours) **48 hours between UV tanning sessions**. This gives your skin time to develop colour while helping reduce the risk of overexposure; especially with our VHR Bulbs.

If what you're really craving is additional warmth, relaxation, &recovery-focused wellness experiences on your non-tanning days, we encourage you to explore our Infrared Sauna or Recovery Room: featuring a PEMF Infrared Heat Mat and Compression Boots..

For those interested in the technical details, we also provide additional information comparing our SunCapsule equipment to tanning units currently available in Lethbridge.

For complete Founder’s and regular pricing details, please visit chinookglow.ca*or book through Vagaro

Thank you all so much for your support on opening day June 1st! 💛

If you're interested in still interested in a membership, please don't hesitate to reach out!

If you've already locked in a Founders rate but haven't finished signing up yet, no worries at all! You can go ahead and book your appointments through Vagaro. When you book, it will show prices and prompt you to check out, but you will not be charged : everything is set to Pay in Person.

It will, however, walk you through the forms you'll need to sign before your appointment, which gets a big chunk of the paperwork out of the way! That means when you arrive, you can browse the products and finish your membership enrollment in person without the wait. 😊

After the whirlwind of yesterday, I have appointments available TODAY: Tuesday, June 2nd from 9:00am–2:00pm: so please come on over if you need extra help with Vagaro setup or want to finish your membership enrollment. And if you'd like a little tour before deciding on your Founders membership, feel free to ask questions!

I truly encourage and appreciate all feedback on Chinook Glow: including our current hours of operation. Your input helps me better serve our local community, so please don't hesitate to share your thoughts! 🙏

A huge thank you to everyone who came in Yesterday, your patience and grace as we worked through all the first-day forms, payments, and products meant the world.

Once you're all set up, it's smooth sailing: slide into your appointment and enjoy every session. You're Unlimited: enjoy it! 🌟
