Sun-bed safety: How tanning salons can improve the safety of their business by switching to salon software…

Sunbeds continue to be a topic of focus with health executives and the media, especially with the rise in skin-cancer and melanoma diagnosis.

The increased health risks linked with sunbeds have encouraged Trading Standards to tighten their approach on laws and businesses in recent years. Salon Tracker is a salon software provider specialising in the tanning industry as well as hair, beauty and spa businesses.  Our software was created with the regulation laws taken into strong consideration.  Considering this, Salon Tracker’s business aims involve the attempt to get every salon in the UK and Ireland abiding by these laws which is why we are debuting our software this year at Professional Beauty North.  Our software has rapidly grown to become one of the tanning industry’s leading software providers due to the features implemented within the software to protect salon businesses.

The initial obstacle is making the switch to salon software.  From there onward, our software offers an array of benefits.  Some of the features include T-Max Integration, essential in the monitoring of minute usage.  We also provide a fingerprint reader, enabling a smooth welcoming process and signature pad, allowing salon owners to attach a disclaimer confirming legal requirements for sunbed use, such as age and general health.

An area which does prove popular is the ‘client notes’ section where staff can add and track conversations and small details to enhance the V.I.P service.  The system prompts for pre-tan health checks, age identifications and allows the ability to forbid clients to book another tanning treatment within a 24 hour time period.  The system will also prompt for the technician to set a client skin type, so they can suitably advise creams and give professional advice.

So if you are a the owner of a tanning salon and feel that Salon Tracker software could improve your tanning business, then visit the company at this year’s Professional Beauty North held in Manchester!  The software ensures you are abiding by all the regulations, and we even offer it at subscription price, saving you from a nasty fine for a small amount per month!  Head to stand B35 this September for more information.  Hope to see you there!
