If you are offering a UV tanning service in the salon it is best practice to adhere to the National Occupational Standards set by Habia. This incorporates guidance on all areas from consultation with the client to practical advice regarding the equipment and client records. Habia has recently revised the NOS standards, which are available to view via here.


Recent developments have been to consider the banning of under 18s from using UV tanning equipment and Habia have provided support and guidance to government regarding implementation of such legislation. Many salons now offer alternative services such fake tanning and discuss this option with their clients during the consultation period.
