about

I'm a med student, so health related questions I can usually answer pretty well. I also like to think I'm somewhat decent at giving advice. I can also give you an honest opinion.




"I love waking up in the morning not knowing what's gonna happen or, who I'm gonna meet, or where I'm gonna wind up. I figure life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You don't know what hand you're gonna get dealt next."





"I believe in colors. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner.I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles."


advice

I was thinking about tanning over the winter. I have never been before, I was wondering what to expect, what levels I should use, what I should wear, how often I should go and stuff about costs, etc.

I'm already dark skinned, a bit.
Thanks!

Well no one actually answered your question so if you really want to know about it there's usually a few levels (depends where you go) usually it's 1, 2, and 3 (sometimes 4 and 5). If you're somewhat dark-skinned i would start off with 2 or 3 then gradually move up in levels if you want to. It's hard to tell what level because people have different definitions of "dark skinned" (the people that work there will suggest a level for your skin better than I can). Don't wear any clothes obviously except maybe underwear because sunburn down there hurts alot. Buy tanning lotion at the salon only (lotions from walmart and CVS will crack the beds and then they'll make you pay for them). When I went I went twice a week for a month which gave me a nice tan. The people working there will tell you alot more about it so you know what's going on.


BUT, I'd advise you not to go, or at least only go for a special occasion. It's expensive, dangerous and addicting if you start to get into it just to do it.
