"Tells them that with 4, maybe 5 visits they can get a great base tan in about 10-12 days max."

I don't see that as being a SELLING POINT as ANY tanning bed should be able to do this. (well in my place at least) I can get people a base in 3-5 visits NO PROBLEM.

"Why salon owners don't do whatever it takes to put in HP, I will never understand. But, to each their own."

For the above reason. I can't sell someone on that when I can get people just as tan in the same amount of time, for a whole lot less on both sides of the table.

It may cost me $10K on top of the HP bed just to get the thing up and running. On top of the increased cost to run it, broke *** people paying in change, new LP technology that kicks serious ***, and I can't see any reason to bring it in other than to JUST HAVE IT.

It really depends on YOUR PERSONAL SITUATION though. If the area calls for it, give it to them.
