Re: Hawaiian Tropic Tan2Max

I found an empty bottle of this **** in my garbage this morning before opening. Usually I check the garbages when I go in to clean the beds specifically for this reason, but I wasn't working last night when it was thrown out, so I really have no idea who it belongs to.

Are there any ingredients in this product specifically that are not good for the skin or the acrylics? I'm asking because I had an arguement with my mom about why I don't want people using these types of products in the salon, even though they say tanning bed proven. All I could come up with is they're not good for the skin and they wreck the beds, but that wasn't a good enough reason for her. She said I can't really tell people they can't use the product when it specifically says it contains no mineral oil and it says it's for indoor use. I said I can tell my customers they can't use it because it's my salon and right now, I can't afford to be replacing acrylics on beds that are less than a year old.

So if I were to confront a customer about using these products in my salon, what kinds of things can I do or say other than "It's bad for your skin" or "It wrecks my beds" to convince them to even try something I sell? Because I know one day I'll get a customer like my mother who will argue to the death that it's okay to use.
