A new type of beauty business may be about to hit the road in southern California - The Tanning Van. It’s like a mobile spa, designed to bring spray tanning services to the consumer’s doorstep.
The fully mobile spray tan studio operates on its own power source, and will feature two interior booths equipped with spray tanning machines that are virtually silent.
The Tanning Van is still just in the idea stage, however - the company’s co-founders Staci LaMar and Michelle Bouras have launched a campaign on the crowdfunding site, Indiegogo, to help raise money to start the business.
LaMar explained, "As SoCal natives, we know that a flawless, year-round tan is important. But people today understand that too much unprotected sun exposure is unhealthy. The mission of The Tanning Van is to give our customers the look they want without the risk, in a comfortable, convenient setting.”
LaMar and Bouras have partnered with South Seas Skin Care, which will provide all of The Tanning Van's machines, tanning solutions and tanning-related skin care products.
South Seas Skin Care has been the tanning provider of choice on "Dancing With the Stars" for the past 7 seasons, and their products are used on over 40 Hollywood sets.
