the reason I thought about starting with 3 beds is I have a beauty salon I'm putting them in so I thought starting with 3 would be good since it's built out for 3 already with the electric, but what size beds ?

Do you know what the competition in your area offers? I personally wouldn't put anything less than about 28 bulbs for a standard bed since most of the home units come with around 24 or less. Also, if you expect a higher volume then you may want equipment that tans more quickly so you can cycle people through faster.
