The Things You Should Remember Before Buying A Commercial Tanning Bed
By Barney Garcia
Did you know that personal care industry has emerged as one of the biggest industries in the 21st century USA? Apart from the services like haircuts and facial, salons are booming in this personal service sector. Are you young and enterprising? Then why not try your luck in this sector that is expanding like crazy? Starting a new business is always challenging with its unique requirements. You have to invest in a set of furnishing and equipments associated with service. But the foremost of all is the commercial bed which is the most essential part of the salon. You need to have fundamental understanding regarding the operation and uses of beds and the extent and effects of ultraviolet radiation coming from it.
If you hop the market in search of beds you will stumble upon mainly two types of Commercial beds: Horizontal beds and Vertical beds.
The horizontal, capsule like beds allow you to simply lie down on the glass or plastic "bench" meant to give you maximum relaxation. Now close the lid and let the UV rays shower your skin. Only turn aside from time to time to get an even tan.
The vertical styles are also referred to as booths or stand-ups. These types of beds are lined with ultraviolet light bulbs in a 360 degree pattern in the interior. You have to step inside and close the door and UV rays will envelop you from all sides. So you do not have to turn your body halfway through the session. This is the reason a
booth works much faster-almost twice-than a horizontal bed.
In the High-pressure beds, your body will get more exposure from rays of UVA than the burning rays of UVB. These beds come with quartz lamps, which have higher internal air pressure than conventional ultraviolet lamps. Thus they are better capable of filtering out more unwanted UVB rays. High-pressure beds are sleek in appearance and they come with an "open cage" construction with no doors. They produce better result with intermediate and dark skin tones.
In most brands of commercial beds you will find high-pressure lamps at least in the face area.
While buying the bed for your salon, just check the UVB percentage on the UV lamps. Suppose, a lamp is marked 5% that means the bulb emits five percent UVB rays and ninety-five percent UVA rays. This percentage is the most widely accepted standard which ensures; you get a tan from these bulbs that will be brown and not burned.
Remember the FDA rules; always buy commercial beds that are attached with an auto-timer that automatically turns off the lamps after the required time. Author Barney Garcia writes about on The Things You Should Remember Before Buying a Commercial Bed to visit :- tanning bed, tanning bed lotion
