Tanning bed accessories stand for the second category of supplies after tanning units. Even though we are under the impression that sunless tanning via artificial Uv rays is provided exclusively by tanning beds, there are additional items which contribute to the adequate completion of the tanning process and, in general, all such items are known as tanning beds accessories.
In essence, manufacturers and tanning salons’ personnel are aware of their significance, while customers who undergo professional tanning sessions do not pay enough attention to the benefits behind the adequate tanning bed accessories and most importantly, to negative consequences that might appear in the event that such items lack within a regular tanning session. “Tanning bed accessories” designation is extremely comprehensive; this is why, a classification in accordance with their use is necessary so that we will have a full understanding of such terms.
- equipment
This element distinguishes a special class of clothing that is necessary during all tanning sessions comprising equipment for personnel or special items for customers. For instance, the second type of equipment might be a special bonnet so that clients can put on so that the tan will not be affected, more precisely, they will not get tanned with marks over their shoulders or over their neck. In addition, by wearing such bonnets, customers and personnel comply with hygiene regulations that are generally applied in all commercial beauty salons.
Special pairs of glasses are of high interest because they are specially manufactured to increase eye protection during exposure to UV rays. These glasses have special design and are easy recognizable due to their pattern and vivid colors. We outline the fact that their role concerns exclusively this tanning method and they should not be used for other purposes.
- maintenance products
This category refers to all devices personnel might make use of in order to maintain properly tanning beds functionality. Actually, replacement parts might also be included in this category. All tanning bed accessories increasing control over the tanning process impact significantly the level of performance.
- cleaning solutions
As mentioned above, all beauty centers providing tanning solutions as commercial services must comply with specific hygiene regulations. This is why, all businesses must consider carefully this aspect. This division of tanning bed accessories are developed and manufactured as cleaning formulas for tanning equipments. Even though such solutions must be very performant, manufacturers have taken into account the fact that too aggressive formulas might affect or deteriorate superficial layers of tanning beds.
It is worth mentioning that the majority of tanning bed accessories are mainly developed and adjusted to commercial purposes, therefore, such items are not necessarily promoted so customers could buy them. Yet, some of them accompany the offer of tanning beds developed for residential use.
All in all, previously detailed divisions of tanning bed accessories are the major categories, yet, manufacturers have the tendency to expend their production lines with various solutions so as to attract their prospective customers.
