Getting a spray on tan is a great alternative to lying out in the sun for hours on end trying to get that beautiful bronze color. However, there are many ways that a spray tan gets applied to your skin. There are rub on lotions, these are often very streaky looking when they dry. There are stand up, all over body spray machines that you can stand in at your typical tanning salon. Beware of these, as the chemicals generally found in these systems can be harmful. There are also two types of hand held spray on tan machines that many salons use that often times get confused. They are "airbrush" and there are "HVLP". Let's talk about the differences and why one may be better than the other for you to seek out when you get your next spray on tan.
First is the airbrush machine. This is very similar technology to what you would paint a car or exterior of your home with. This is relatively older technology in the spray on tan community. It consists of an air compressor that compresses the air and shoots it out in very high pressure through a nozzle that sprays out a fine mist onto the body. This is often the system that you will see that is accompanied by an exhaust system to eradicate the enormous excess of solution that is often expelled out of this system. In its day, this was a good way to apply tanning solution to the body. Thankfully, times and technology have changed!
Secondly, and often times mislabeled as airbrush, is the HVLP system. There are dramatic differences for the salon owner and consumer. Lets talk about a few basics. First, HVLP stands for High Volume, Low Pressure. This means that you still have a perfect amount of air flow necessary for a good tan, it's just that the pressure needed is far less. This is beneficial on many levels.
One is, far less solution is needed. This is great for the salon owner, and also for the client, as they will not be subjected to the massive fog bank created by the airbrush system. Secondly, the amount of over spray is dramatically reduced thus there is no need for expensive exhaust systems. Salon owners will also find that they will not find solution all over the walls, ceilings and other parts of their shop. HVLP has become the go to system for anyone that is serious about getting into the spray on tan business. It is also the best option for owning a mobile system.
HVLP has revolutionized the spray on tan industry. These spray tan systems are less expensive, more mobile, better return on investment and more requested by the salon owners and consumers alike. Get your next spray on tan from an HVLP system... you will be glad you did!
