How to tan in a tanning bed?
The ladies at the Salon should be able to tell you how long to lay the first time. Then if you are not red the next day you can increase your time by a minute or two. Depending on how tan you want to be this is going to take some time, at lest a month or two so be prepared. So, starting out you should go two or three times a week and decrease it the closer you get to the tan you want to be. You want to also buy some good tanning lotion from the salon, again they should be able to tell you what one will be the best for your skin tone. Also remember to use regular lotion often. This helps you tan faster and keep your tan longer. Oh, if you lay in a regular bed you will need to go to the Stand-up bed to even out your tan and get rid of the white lines after you get a base tan. Typically you can go ever other time to keep up on it. Happy Tanning!

I am pretty sure they can show you how to do it. And that is so funny. I wanna look good for the last time.. HAHA. i love it
Reply:yes a few minutes at a time, then you can gradually go more
Reply:hi,


you normally go for 8 minutes to start then 10 then 15. if you go to a stand up you will most likely burn the first couple of times. your first time wont tan so you notice it, but as your skin adapts to the light you will get darker. you will burn at least once but its not as bad as sunburn. but you have to go about 3 times a month to keep up your tan. its not scary just turn on the radio in the room if your scared and need to get your mind off of it. i got to a tanning bed once a week for cheerleading. but if you would rather get a spray on go to a tanning bed it least twice before you go or it will turn you orange.
Reply:ok....when i started tanning i went for 8 min, and i have blonde hair, blue eyes, and fair skin too. you just put tanning stuff on if you going to use it, lay down, and pretty much just lay there for however long. but if you have contacts make sure you take them out before hand. in the rooms they usually have a radio or something so you wont be really bored.





hope this helped at all

If you don't like the look of a faux tan, why not buy a dress in a colour that enhances your naturally fair skin, buff on some soft shimmer powder and rock the pale? It will be a lot safer, in the long run. And you will look refreshingly different from all the other cookie-cutter girls, all doing the same, boring over-tanned, over-done look.
