Yes you can get a kit with spray tan training for around £149, but is cheapest always best?
We only sell the best world class quality Iwata Airbrush system, which has huge impact on the results achieved, and is very reliable machinery, our is now 11 years old NOT ONE PROBLEM!
What is the difference?
The cheaper spray tanning courses with kit have HVLP machinery with their tanning kits, which are ALOT cheaper to buy!
The Airbrush Tan system that we use, uses a gun that is shaped like a pen and driven by a compressor. The compressor can also be used for airbrush nails/ body art and airbrush make up. This cannot be said for HVLP machines. A pressure of 20psi is generally plenty and a higher pressure can be too much for your clients skin. Most compressors have a regulator on. Generally an airbrush application takes about 15 to 20 minutes and it gives considerable control to the technician.
Yes HVLP are quicker, but are found to be extremely noisy and we have found on our courses where students bring their own HVLP machinery that runs can occur due to speed of solution and amount of solution from gun, as an HVLP is a blower , NOT A COMPRESSOR, similar to a reverse vacuum cleaner.
Also clients don’t necessarily want speed they want an accurate streak free tan!
The reason HVLP systems are cheaper, is that it is an air blower not a compressor! Just be sure you buy the machinery that will deliver you the results you need for your business with no hassle!
