Dennard - Certified Airbrush Tanning Technician

I attended the best airbrush training class in the world and am thankful to bring that knowledge and skill here to Alaska.

Spray tanning is gradually gathering momentum in America amongst men as a rewarding career path. Dennard Hegna, an experienced construction manager and ironworker from Fairbanks, Alaska has just completed his training from the Hollywood Airbrush Tanning Academy with an aspiration of making it big as a tanning salon and airbrush tanning business owner. This Southern California based training center has gained immense popularity throughout America for their hands on certification program. Many of today’s successful spray tanning business owners have been a student of this academy in the past.

In spite of the rapidly increasing popularity of spray tanning in the country, the industry is run mostly by women. Dennard Hegna has recently purchased a tanning salon and found out that there were no airbrush tanners in Fairbanks, Alaska. As a result, he decided to learn airbrush tanning from the Hollywood Airbrush Tanning Academy. Simone Emmons, the founder and chief instructor of the academy found Dennard extremely talented and feels that he has a bright future in the industry. “He did such a great job in learning my spray tanning technique quickly. I think what helped him is because he already knew how to use a spray gun from the construction field he was in. He was extremely talented and also very thorough when tanning the models,” she says.

Talking about his decision to learn airbrush tanning, Dennard said, “I am a huge supporter of clean living and when the opportunity to purchase the tanning salon became available I jumped on it! I am now able to share my other favorite thing - CHAGA tea with all of our clients and they too are beginning to fall in love as they see the amazing health benefits. Combining that with our newest red-light therapy treatment, clients can be healthy, happy and have a beautiful tan throughout the year!” He also added that his ultimate goal is to become the “furthest north airbrush tanning trainer in the world.”

Dennard's tanning business "Tans N Tea" will offer Hollywood style airbrush tanning services covering areas such as Fairbanks, Anchorage, Wasilla, Palmer, North Pole, Delta Junction, Valdez and other adjoining areas in Alaska. His tanning salon is located at 3594 Airport Way, Fairbanks, Alaska 99709 and can be contacted by calling 907-687-8711 or by visiting the website at http://www.tansntea.com.

Describing the most important benefits of getting trained by the Hollywood Airbrush Tanning Academy, Dennard said, “I learned so many important things! It includes safety and ventilation, paying attention to each client’s skin type and mastering Simone's technique. Entering this industry with little knowledge outside of personal tanning, I knew I had picked the right instructor. After meeting Simone and participating in her class I no longer have any doubts in my airbrush tanning abilities. I attended the best airbrush training class in the world and am thankful to bring that knowledge and skill here to Alaska.”
