Burning Clients in Leonardo. - TanToday - Helping Salon Owners, One At A Time, Since 2000!

Natureboy · 28th March 2008, 12:58 PM

Ok, so I have myself already burnt 3 clients in the Leonardo already. And that is with them only doing 8 or 9 minutes and they had a decent base tan already. Great way to piss of customers.

I hope the bed calms down after it breaks in a bit.

Definetly is not traditional HP. But the hardcore clients love it.

7.0 MED Meter would answer all those questions.

Natureboy · 28th March 2008, 01:08 PM

Nice plug.

Not if we are putting them in too long anyway.

7.0 will tell you time to 4 MEDS. what your staff does with that info requires more training at times.

Ha....James, did these customers tan recently? I have many doing the full session and loving it. Actually...when I did start a few of them at 8 minutes, they quickly asked to be moved up to 10 or 12.

Now... even though I find that the bed is quite a bit more agressive than the magic, SS Platinum King etc... I don't think people NEED to tan as much as they do in a VHR with a mod. 3-3.5% lamp.

I myself tan in the leo once every 7-8 days and my colour stays as much as when I tan in the platinum with mug6 every 10-12 days. Only diff. is that with lenny I look like I just got back from vacation, while the platinum has given me the punjabi rep.

Natureboy · 29th March 2008, 08:30 PM

Yes, I personally think that the tan will not fade much faster because of the extra B.

Tammy, glad you are here to teach me about indoor tanning.

The shorter session works great and the thread was not about customer habits, how long their tan lasts in this bed and if my customers are going to stop spending money on it. The thread was about you have to be careful with new clients when the bed is brand new.

Sorry I didn't buy a Mastersun. As you are obviously insinutating.

This was only a few customers that burnt out of dozens already. We do that in the Magic at times too, I am probably just concerned because of the extra B.

And if it hasn't happened already, it will, people will get pissy paying that much $$ on HP and Can't go a full session anymore. I'm not sure if you have a bunch of skin type 3-b's and 4's in your area, but most canadians are white white white asses.

Oh c'mon Tammy, you know you need a good burn to get a tan.

OMG enough already! She didn't even mention the Mastersun. You're the one that posted about your bed. Do you want her to never reply about HPs at all???

SHEEEEESH!

So you just wanna HER not to comment no matter what threads are started? I don't think she wants to beat the dead horse either and in this thread she didn't say anything comparing it to her bed etc.

I've had people burn in the Magic, it's been EXTREMELY rare so far, one lady just told me her one side was red but no where else. First thing I checked for was a "hot" column, did not exist. I think she was just strange.

I'd be worried about using the LEO for the average person, you should sell it to your hardcore HP users as HP on steroids. Long lasting tan with more instant color

uv2021 · 30th March 2008, 10:52 AM

The Leo will settle down.This is the same glass and lamps and voltage as my 07 saturn.It was a little wild out of the gate ,but after a 20-30 hr break in period ..no problems.We can take a person who has the abilty to tan and give them 9-12 min from the get go.
