Tanning???

1. What is worse to go tanning in a tanning bed or to lay in the sun?


2. Is it bad for your skin if you got burnt, but not like really burnt?


3. Is it still bad for you if you only go tanning for special occasions once a year?

Tanning is never really good for you... and a burn is always bad, even if it is minor. if you tan indoors, be sure to start out with fewer minutes than you think you can handle to avoid burns, and build up to it slowly. If you are tanning your entire body, plan to cover areas not used to exposure earlier - they will be the first to burn. If you are tanning outdoors, be sure to use sunscreen. You will still tan, it will take you longer to burn. SPF 2 is hardly worth while - try at least 15. The self-tanning lotions and sprays are pretty good - not orange and streaky - you may want to consider that as an alternative. If you must tan, it is best to do so for special occasions, not all the time if you can avoid it. Take care of your face and chest - those are the first to show aging, which tanning will make worse.

well from what i know i think that tanning bed is better than to lay in the sun but whats better than both of those is self tanning creams u can use them at home or at a beauty salon

it is bad if u go only on occasions but it is better than daily
Reply:1. neither here or there


2. yes, a burn is a burn and your body still has to heal itself


3. if you are only going tanning once a year, it really isn't doing alot of good so why bother?
Reply:1) I think the bed is worse then laying in the sun. But im not positive


2) Burns arent good. You dont want to get burned. You go tanning short amounts of time a couple times to BUILD a tan. It isnt Instant.


3) i think its fine. I went twice the first week and now i only go like every 2 weeks, just till summer cause i dont wanna be like a ghost. USE LOTION!!! it drys your skin out





But dont over do it- tooo many girls walk around looking like a piece of leather.
Reply:Sunshine is good stuff but a quarter hour per day provides all the vitamin D - the best kind - our bodies needs for health. More than that and we might as well get a season pass to a radiology room.
Reply:1 a tanning bed is better 4 u


2.no not at all


3.once a year is fine but just dont go like 3 times a year
Reply:I don't know which is worse-prob both bad. I hate getting burnt! I go to Sun Tan City-don't know if there is one where you live? They have a bed called 'The Matrix' - I never get burnt in this bed. There is only a 3% burn rate. 97% of the burn rays are filtered out(UVA or UVB?) Max time 12 minutes. I can get a really good-dark tan in 2 weeks. Regular tanning beds-it takes a month or more to achieve same results. It is very expensive. Worth it to me! Sorry I could not really answer the question-but I wanted to share.
