Crabs at Tanning Beds and Saunas

Be sure discounted tanning beds are doing correct sanitation on tanning booths with the correct tanning bed cleaning supplies.

The popularity of indoor tanning continues to grow by leaps and bounds, and the risk of disease can be real. Crabs at tanning beds and saunas is no joke. It can happen! This means the sanitation of tanning booths has become more important than ever. Reputable salons will have a regular cleaning schedule. For salons that offer discounted tanning beds, be sure to check their cleaning procedures. A discounted price is no savings if you become sick. Proper sanitation of tanning beds reduces the risk of contracting a disease or infection to a minimal.

Reputable tanning salons have a proper cleaning regime in place. This will include wiping the bed down after each use with a germicide that is comparable in strength to what a hospital uses. It will also include a cleaning process for the end of the day which covers all the nooks and crannies.

Before using a salon, feel free to ask the attendants what their cleaning regime is, what type of cleaners they use, and how often they clean their beds. They’ll be happy to provide you with this information. Prior to using a bed, check it yourself. Look for dust and dirt that appears to have been there for awhile. Use your sniffer to see if you can catch a whiff of a disinfectant smell.

Discounted tanning can be discounted maintenance, including over used bulbs. Beds that are not properly maintained can make you sick, and you will not obtain the optimum tan because the bulbs are too weak. Dirt and dust build up on the bulbs and casings reduce the effectiveness of tanning by up to 30%. So you could be wasting your money.

Do some comparison shopping. Ask friends and families that tan to recommend a salon they have been happy with. Check with the BBB if you like. Don’t purchase a long term package until you’re certain. Try two or three different salons that are convenient to you, priced right, and have the equipment you are looking for. Then you can make an educated decision about which salon you want to use long term.

Remember the old saying; you pay for what you get. So make sure that discounted tan is really a good deal and not just a waste of your money and a risk to your health.
