Has anybody seen them, or ever used them?
Are they any good?

A Hollywood tan is opening up near me, and I wanted to know about them...

Thanx

Hollywood Tan lotions
look close at the shape and color of the bottles,,,,is it a clue who makes it for them?

The black bottles look like AG accelerator...the same EXACT bottle....

But, did u have another line in mind???
Swedish Beauty bottles also, all made by ETS...

I wrote to their website, and a guy named Vince Abate wrote back.....Does that name have anything to do with John Abate?????

Lets dig a little deeper!
It may be a suprise........And not a good one!

The unit they use is called the HT54 it is a complete knock-off of Suncapsule. The lamps they use are a private label ETS lamp similar to the Cosmolux VHR. They are very successful in providing a fast tan. They don't offer much to the More experianced tanner.

Let See I checked Out hollywood tans.....
HT60 stands for Hollywood Tan 60 bulbs
sorry to say 8 mins what a joke ...there bulbs are only 160 watts... lets see I have the sun capsule 200 watts 60 bulbs 9 mins.
Also known as the (200 60/9),(starship)
& (cylcone) all the same ..
HT60 won't give you a better tan it just cheats you of time and money ....
find a sun capsule in your area
another thing the ad they run tan for less then $2.00 a tan, that over $900.00 fee @
365 day a year. you would need to tan every day .. not a good idea.

I've been to one in NJ. It was ok, their booths are exactly like my Sun Capsules. They keep them in pretty good condition and they had a variety of lotions at the one I went to, CalTan for sure. They had beds too but I didn't look at those. I got some decent results there, used the 200, but I am a known franchise hater so thats what bugs me about it. Not personal to Hollywood Tans, just a professional opinion with some personal background.
