The growing awareness of the dangers posed by spending too much time in the sun has led to more and more people turning to tanning salons to meet their needs and help them get a nice, sun kissed glow. Recently, a new piece of tanning equipment which takes the form of a Standup Tanning booth has become very popular because of its numerous advantages over the traditional tanning bed.
The Advantages Of Standup Tanning
There are many reasons why tanning booths may be preferred to tanning beds.
-More Hygienic – Tanning beds can be very dirty and even spread diseases if not cleaned and disinfected properly between sessions, because of countless users lying full-length on the bed and sweating. In tanning booths, however, the user stands on the floor while being tanned, and there is less danger of catching someone else’s disease. You can even wear flip-flops if you feel like.
-More Complete Tanning – Tanning beds tan the back and front of your body, but what about the more hard to reach places like the inside of your arms and legs? In a tanning booth, you can hang your arms and legs on special straps and handles, to be sure you get an even tan on every part of your body. It also helps you to achieve a more natural looking tan, because you are standing up instead of lying flat.
-More Powerful – The lamps installed in tanning booths are even more powerful than the ones used in tanning beds, making for a shorter session required.
-Lower Maintenance – Standing Tanning Booths are a lot easier to maintain than tanning beds, which is another reason why they are a wonderful piece of equipment for salons to invest in. They are very easy to keep clean, because they don’t have to be disinfected between sessions like tanning beds, and even though their lamps are extremely powerful, they have a low electricity cost because they are run by 30 to 40 amp breakers.
Tanning booths use UV rays, which means that if you are taking prescribed medication, you need to talk to your doctor before going to the tanning salon, to make sure your medication isn’t making your body sensitive to UV radiation. UV rays can be very damaging to the eyes, so you should take the proper precautionary measures to protect them.
