Hi everyone,
I've come here looking for answers from the people that do this stuff every day! I currently work in a traditional tanning salon w/LP and HP units. We do not offer any sunless services and over the years I've noticed an increasing amount of people coming in looking for airbrushing or spray booths. I know where the Mystic tan booths are and turn the customer away to someone else’s doors…. But now I want a piece of the action!
I'm starting to research the possibility of opening my own mobile sunless spray tanning business. I would like to offer spray tans in the comfort of the clients home as well as spray tan parties and a regular clientele.
It's my understanding the HVLP systems are the new thing in sunless. I would greatly appreciate any information anyone has on what machines they are using and like best or dislike as well as what all I would need for start-up.
My biggest concern is the DHA solution itself. What is everyone using? Are there different levels of DHA concentrate for different skin tones? What do you have on hand every day at your salons? What about barrier creams and other pre/post sunless products?
Again, I'm a newbie and I'm just trying to soak in as much knowledge as I can before I start calling the manufactures.
Please email me at

Thanks in advance,
Cori Papuga
