Tanning salons are regulated by the state, so I'd be surprised if they'd hire anyone that's less than 18. You should consider calling a few salons on the phone and asking them.How old do you have to be to work at a tanning salon in missouri?
Missouri's Division of Labor Standards states that:





';Young people 14 to 15 years of age are permitted to work in a number of different types of businesses, with the majority working in some form of retail or food services. A work certificate is required during the school year.';





It also states:





';Prohibited occupations (for your age) generally involve dangerous equipment (cookers, slicers), dangerous materials (such as toxic chemicals), or dangerous duties (driving, roofing).';





Tanning salons are likely within the ';prohibited occupations.'; You'll find more information about this on the site linked below.





Did you know that your state has a jobs Web site for your age? It's also linked below.





I hope you find a job and a career that suits you.
