Operating a tanning salon is subject to various laws and regulations that vary by location. Common regulations include state and local health codes that require proper sanitation and equipment maintenance, as well as age restrictions that prohibit minors from using tanning beds without parental consent. Additionally, some jurisdictions mandate the display of warning signs about the risks of UV exposure and may have licensing requirements for salon operators. Compliance with the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act is also necessary, as tanning devices are classified as medical devices.
Getting a safe tan from a tanning bed may be somewhat of an oxymoron. However, if you are determined to use a tanning bed, limit your time in the tanning bed and ensure your salon follows FDA regulations.
You can find an indoor tanning salon in Hawaii at the Sun Splash Tans website. Alternatively, you can find an indoor tanning salon in Alabama at the Club Sun Tanning website.
Licensing varies by state. Some states require you to be licensed and certified to operate a tanning salon...some states have virtually no regulations. Since tanning is now taxed by the Federal Government(they now access a 10% excise tax on tanning) you do need to get a Tax ID# for your business so you can pay your quarterly Tan TAX taxes.

In Wisconsin, individuals must be at least 18 years old to use tanning beds at a tanning salon. Minors aged 16 or 17 can tan but require written consent from a parent or guardian. Additionally, children under 16 are prohibited from using tanning equipment altogether. It's important for salons to adhere to these age restrictions to ensure safety and compliance with state regulations.

At my work all the girls who work at the tanning salon get free tanning. I'm sure it depends from salon to salon. The reason we get free tanning is so we can look tan, if a customer comes in to tan, and they see someone pale behind the desk, they will think the tanning beds at that salon don't work. Basically giving us free tanning makes us a walking billboard, someone will ask me where I tan and I will say my work name, and then they will go there because I look so tan. Simple
