What is the difference between HVLP (turbine) tanning and airbrush tanning?
The equipment is the difference. Both spray the sunless onto the skin but the airbrush does this with high pressure (from a compressor) while the turbine, or HVLP (high volume low pressure), does so with a larger volume of air and motion in a highly specialized spray gun. They both do the job very well. The airbrush tends to be used more in shops or spas that don’t have such a high volume. The turbine is ideal for high volume, enabling one to complete a spray tan in about one third the time or less. Airbrush systems are typically much more quiet that HVLP systems.
