What Is Spray Tan Equipment And What Does It Do

By Sam Jones


Before purchasing spray tan equipment, make sure you know your reason for making the purchase. This will help ensure that the equipment you purchase is exactly what you need. For example, use in a salon is going to require different devices than use in the home.

When looking for what you need, the most popular manufacturers tend to offer devices that suit any market sector. However, there are some well known companies that only produce for one area of the market. For instance, one company may be well known for their mobile and home equipment, while another popular company may be well known for their semi-pro and pro systems.

Before buying, however, be sure to set a budget and talk with friends or salons about the devices they are using. This will help you to learn about their experiences and can assist in making a good buying decision. Be sure to ask about the pros and the cons.

So how does this type of tanning work? A very gentle mist of diluted Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) is applied to the skin using a spray gun or an airbrush. This is a non-hazardous chemical that is in all reality a sugar that is odorless. When applied to the skin, it reacts to the amino acids that are present in the outer layer of the skin. It can take several hours before the results of the tanning visit are seen.

The quality of this bronze sheen is going to depend upon the quality of the device and the skill behind it. The tan solution also has a grade and the higher the grade the better. The bronzing looks very real because there are different tones and finishes that can be used based upon skin type. Some solutions even have anti-aging additives and skin protectants.

Using spray tan equipment is the safe alternative to lying in the sun or going to the tanning bed. Airbrush systems for home use or air guns used in salons work quite well in giving the skin that perfect freshly tanned glow. It is virtually impossible to tell the difference between an actual suntan and an airbrushed one.
