That’s right. Not in January or February. Now!
Has your team completed a salon operator certification program? If your answer to this question is “no,” then IST Magazine asks, why not?
Among the reasons used most often for avoiding salon certification are staff turnover and cost.
- “Why train them if they may not stay on as staff?”
- “It’s too expensive.”
- “I even have to pay them while they’re on the clock taking the class and the test.”
Well, IST Magazine is blasting these reasons out of the water!

So, what’s the big deal about salon operator training? Some states, such as North Carolina, actually require all salon staff to be certified and all indoor tanning certification programs offered there must be approved by the North Carolina Radiation Control. The Food and Drug Administration maintains that health claims regarding indoor tanning services cannot be made. IST Magazine has taken a firm stance against making health claims in our industry, and the state of North Carolina takes that same stance. No certification programs taken by North Carolina salon operators can promote health benefits of UV tanning. Sun is Life is proud to be an approved program in North Carolina, as well as all states that have this “no health claims” requirement.
Even if your state doesn’t require certification, you NEED it! Clearly, if you are going to be in the business of indoor tanning, you should be educated on the facts about the subject – and your staff needs to be on the same page. Over the years, there have been so many media reports (most of them spreading misconceptions) that have negatively influenced the public, as well as your current customers. So, take a stand and do something about it! Become the salon in your town that is known and trusted for its professionalism. For a limited time, IST Magazine will make it as easy and cost effective as possible, so don’t miss out on our incredible offer!
