Looking for spray tan equipment? It beats using lotion that can leave your skin orange and splotchy. The spray system uses an airbrush gun. Don’t worry if you have never used an airbrush gun. The home systems are easy to use.
Unlike professional airbrush painting, spray tanning leaves room for mistakes. As long as you keep the brush at an even 6 to 8 inches from the skin and apply with a consistent motion you will be fine. Just make sure not to spray one spot too long and remember to overlap to prevent streaking.
A home system includes a compressor and airbrush gun. A good online search will give you several options. Make sure you take all factors into account before making a decision. How much do you want to spend? Is this going to be a business venture? Are you going to use it in your home only? Will this be a mobile unit? If you plan on making money, what will be your rate of return?
Lets talk about starting a business. You can practice on friends and family. It only takes a few trials before you know what you are doing. Some people will throw ‘Tanning Parties’, offering free tans to build a customer base. This is an excellent way to get started because now you have people who want to maintain the tan you just provided. Once you have a good base of repeat customers, repeat business will be no problem.
You will also need to have a booth to contain the spray. If you have a permanent home system a simple booth can be set up with tarp purchased from a local supply store. If you want it to look nice try using shower curtains instead. It can easily be set up in a bath tub and then take down when not in use. There are also several suppliers that offer inflatable booths. The professional booths are quite expensive and are only worth the money of you plan on opening a salon.
With the advent of spray tanning products you can achieve beautiful looking skin without the damaging effects of the sun.
