About xkatiex



Hey, my name is Katie. I live in Australia with my fiance and 2.5 beautiful children. In my 24 years i have had many ups and downs. I've lost loved ones, I've suffered depression, I've been in an emotionally abusive relationship which ended badly, I've cheated and been cheated on, I've been homeless, I've had cancer... Thats just the tip of the ice-berg. I think I'm pretty well qualified to answer pretty much anything you throw at me.

I'm naturally very fair skinned and don't really tan. If I'm out in the sun long, enough my shoulders and back will burn (like a lot of people). So I figure it's probably pretty pointless for me to try using a tanning bed, because I know they say "if you don't tan in the sun, you won't tan in here." But I've never really tried to get tan. Like, it doesn't happen easily, so I've never really tried that hard, or laid out for very long. So maybe if i was in the beds where it is so concentrated and stuff, I'd actually be able to get a little color? Is it easier in the concentrated beds than it is normally? I'm from Michigan, so that's part of why I don't get to try than much.

With all the new information out about tanning beds and skin cancer now, it is becomming 'uncool' to have a tan. White is the new tan. Get a fake tan. You can get spray on ones that you do yourself that are pretty cheap and dont look like you did it yourself.

Do your research if you are going to use a tanning bed. A lot of people where i'm from have contracted skin cancer from using them.

(Rating: 4) Thanks. I'm not considering using tanning beds all the time.. I don't want to ruin my skin. It would just be nice to know if it'd work if I had a special event I wanted to get a little color for, like a wedding or something.
