When you're looking for a tanning salon be sure to pick one that is reputable with a trained professional staff that has been in business in your community.  Take a walk around the salon to see the atmosphere and see for yourself the cleanliness, the choices of equipment and talk to the staff.  Not all tanning salons are the same.  They vary in many ways as to the equipment, performance of tanning lamps, operational hours and prices.

The price does not reflect the quality as some salons.  Single sessions in a average salon can range from four to twelve dollars depending on equipment and exposure time.  It is always better to get your moneys worth which could mean you spending a little more but needing to tan often for a better healthier tan.

Cleanliness  is one of the most important things when choosing a salon. That is why visiting a salon or getting a referral from someone you trust versus just getting prices over the phone is very crucial.  They should be only using approved sanitizers (hospital grade).

Staff Members  should be highly trained in the tanning process and be able for you to  ask any questions you may have regarding the salon, equipment and any specials they are having.  This will help to evaluate their knowledge and training.   They should be able to provide to you the personal attention you need to make an informed decision.  

Tanning Equipment  should be looked at for the type, for the cleanliness and to see how many tanning lamps are in each.  A tanning bed with more bulbs with give you more comfort and a better tan.  Ask when bulbs are changed.  They all should be regulated on some sort of system for usage and all tanning beds should have a specific rotation so all equipment is used evenly.  Larger salons will offer different levels of equipment and pricing.  A professional salon should take the time to explain the differences and help you in deciding the best choice for YOU.
