Tanning bed or not?
i am not sure but i would try!:-) i mean whats going 2 happen?:-)
Reply:Tanning beds always burn me for some reason, and they aren't good for your skin. There are some tanning salons that do the spray tan and it looks amazing - maybe you might wanna try that.
Reply:Tanning beds are very dangerous. They lead to skin cancer, but I'm sure you already know that. You should get some sunless tanning lotion or consider spray on tan to even your tan lines.
Reply:NO. They're bad. Dont' do it.
Reply:i really don't think you should go - i've always heard really bad things about them. personally, i have a weird tan from track (sock tan and shorts tan) and so i just use lighter SPF sunscreen on the paler parts, or cover the tan parts while sitting outside, and i bet spray-on tan does a pretty good job (from what i've seen).
Reply:Tanning beds are fine. Just don't make a habit out of using them!!!
Reply:if u tan to much it may make u look good now but later u will have horrible wrinkles, maybe skin cancer, and who knows what???so no,no tanning bed-
Reply:tanning beds are very bad you can get skin cancer use a self tanner insed
Reply:No
Reply:get 30 plus protected tan cream so you won't get cancer and then get sunless tan cream it is great for you skin and you still can lay in the sun but now you are protected
Reply:Tanning beds are so gross! Think about it: you are going to lie on a piece of glass that other people have lain NAKED on, with goopy stuff all over their bodies, sweating their behinds off on! It's disgusting. I know so many people that have worked at gyms where they have tanning beds, and they all say the same thing: they're DISGUSTING! If you want a good tan, go to a tanning BOOTH. You don't have to put your body on anything that other people have been naked on, and you still get a really good tan.
Reply:they cause cancer after you using them, skin cancer, and they also make you orange,


i think you should go tanning a couple more times in the sun and just keep moving around your bathing suit.
Reply:Don't use a tanning bed. It's not worth it. Use a tanning lotion or something like that.
Reply:welli i dont think that you should because all my friends went there and they got burnt really easily, so i think that you should try things like mystic tan, which would even it out really good.
Reply:Try every other day for a week for 5-8minutes. Cover up the the already tanned parts with sun block. Maybe that will help with the farmers tan.





I think it's when people get burned in the beds or do it everyday, or continuously do it over a long period of time...is when problems start to arise
Reply:i once heard a tanning salon employee say that we need to get tanned at least twice a month in the winter time so that we can keep on the vitamins for our skin.


maybe she was referring to carcinogen-B12?
Reply:Tanning beds can be bad for you. The UV rays do damage your skin and promote the chance of getting skin cancer, a very bad cancer.





One or two sessions a season won't be that bad, but I think that your best bet is to get an artificial tan. They have sprays, gels, and even wipes. That way you can even out your tan.
Reply:I have gone tanning and it's kind of nice. I always fall asleep. It's bad for you if you go alot but once in a while it's bad for you, just put lotion on. They have really good lotions at the places where you tan so try it.
Reply:I've heard bad things about tanning beds also, and I've seen the effects on my cousin and a few friends. My cousin used to go at least once a week, and she started to get white bumps on her skin, and they haven't gone away...they look like scars now...not attractive! That was a year ago and she still has the scars. One of my friends went, and she got an a virus called mollecosum contagiosum. It is a virus that gives you a nasty rash. It took several treatments for it to go away (4 months!) and all because the tanning beds weren't sanitized...So, my recommendation, don't go! Lay out in the sun more and it will eventually go away...It just might take a little longer!
Reply:well yeah it can be bad. but there is now one with no UV rays, or so I heard. and theres also the spray... that atns u


but hey if u just go to even the tan i dont think it can be that bad!
Reply:No tanning beds. So bad for your skin. Try self tanning. I use Neutrogena Instant Bronzer. Works wonders!
Reply:When the process of indoor tanning is respected it can be more effective than tanning outdoors. Indoor tanners are exposed to a scientifically controlled dosage of UV light carefully formulated to tan you with a minimal risk of sunburn. That kind of control is virtually impossible outdoors, where variables such as seasonality, time of day, location, geography, and weather conditions make sunburn much more likely. Overall, the results and convenience of indoor tanning allows a year round healthy looking tan without concerns or prolonged exposure to the burning rays of the sun.
