hair under the acrylic.....grrr - tanTALK

tantimeflorida · 12-08-2001, 01:49 PM

Does anyone have any idea why or how the hair gets under the acrylic?? Its driving me crazy!!! I have brand new beds 2002 model, we have only been open a week and already there is hair under the acrylic. I dont want to remove the acrylic everytime I see a piece of hair. Is there a way I can prevent this from happening?

I have experienced the same thing. High power fans just draw in whatever is in the air I guess. It's **** breaking down a bed for one hair!!

Some beds have filters. UWE beds do i think. Some beds have hinged acrylics too.

This happens frequently and I have tried to tap the acrylic to have the hair fall away from sight, but then I say...why and just go ahead and take the acrylic off and get whatever yucky thing I may see off.

It's best to remove the acrylics frequently and wipe away all the dust that accumulates on the under side of them. The unit will tan better.

Yeah, boy do I know what you mean. I was ready to close one down today because some nimrod had a freakin' haircut and then decided "Hey I think I'll tan..." and got hair all over the bed. It was EVERYWHERE! I couldn't believe it. But, we're getting the lamps changed tonight... so I cleaned it as carefully and thoroughly as I possibly could. We were just too busy to have a bed down for four hours.

Those dirty messy tanning beds are yucky.
