Re: Negative publicity, recession and less volume. (The elephant in the room) B is the correct answer. My salon also does hair, and I think that salon owners that only do tanning (including spray) are buffered against just how bad it is. They are surrounded by like minds and do not realize that the ratio of "anti-tanning mindsets" is increasing year after year. The bigger issue is the degree of disgust for tanning beds. That Jersey mom could face 10 years in prison and her bail was something like $10k. Even if her kid went in to the room with her, it should not be a felony! In the late 90’s we had many pre-teens that would tan with their parents just before a vacation to a tropical area. This saved many pale white kids from Indiana from major, damaging burns. Now this is a felony! Now you are told to slather chemical sunscreen all over you child… but trust them… It’s safe ;)
