Tanning
Hey, Im 13 and a female. I would like to start tanning because I am very white/pale. She says that 13 is too young to start tanning and that I should wait until I am 16. I really dont think that I would be willing to wait until I am 16. I mean come on that is 3 years! Is there anything that I can say or do to make her agree. Please dont say you should wait till your 16. Ill rate high. Molly ♥

Maybe give some free advice about: Fashion and Styles?
you're not too young. there's not an age for tanning, but the longer you do it the higher the risk is for cancer.if "she" wont let you go to the beds just get a self tanner. or lay outside for 30 minutes on each side every other day..good luck

tell her ( who is her?)but anyways say anything like how old were you when you tanned , say anything that may have dealed with her past , so she can see your really serious about this, and she still says no try making a compromse it may be your only hope

You don't have to go to the tanning bed. Get a spray on or a tan lotion that tans you. Besides, who wants that fake bake look anyways.

maybe you can talk to her about doing a spray on tan? they have some really good spary on tans.
or you can tell her that tanning beds are safe, if you wear the right cream. and it gives you a base coat so when you go out in the sun you dont burn as badly.
that's what i do. when im about to go on a trip i go to the beds and i tan, so i ahve a base coat and then when i get there i dont burn.
best of luck! ♥

Considering tanning is not the safest thing for your skin, I suggest creams or lotions with bronzer in them, sold at any drugstore. These creams tan your skin gradually. By 2 days you will start to see a difference, and you just keep building it up. They make it for fair skin tones and medium and dark, so whatever your tone is, there is one right for you.

You really should wait. Tanning is absolutely horrible for your skin. It causes cancer and premature wrinkling among other incredibly unappealing things.
BUT your skin is your own and you can do whatever you please to it. If you are hell bent on actual tanning, at least wait until you are older (I know you didn't want to hear it) to avoid that "I swear I'm 16 even though I look 45" appearance.
Why don't you meet your mother in the middle and ask her if you can use something sunless until then? Check into whether or not any tanning locations in your area provide mystic. If not, there are a lot of products out there (to quote earlier advice I gave) that will work if you select the proper color method for your natural skin tone.
If you have very light skin and choose a deep tanner, you're going to look very unnatural and teeter dangerously close to orange. Also, make sure to wash and moisturize your skin before applying it. The color should come out just fine with no streaking. It's best though to build your color over time to avoid the orange/streaked look.

im 13 & i tan.
But really just tell your mom, that Your only going to go every so often (13, you dont need to tan every weekend i go every once a month)
It made my mom feel better knowing i wasent planning on tanning alot.

Your mom says your too young? To be honest... no one wanted me to tan either, i eventually convinced my mom into letting me. Now she makes me tan cause she says i look good. Try like on your next vacation.. tell her you wanna tan and just try it out, just that one time. and see if it works. If not then you can get the spray stuff at longs or walgreens rite aid. idk any of those. They work good as long as there not the totally cheapy brands. Good luck (:

you cant be too young to tan honey. but if you overtan, youll get skin cancer (or possibly). you dont necessarily have to tan, you can be swimming, and you can get tan

Tanning in the beds is extremely unhealthy for you. So unless you want to get skin cancer, i'd do MYSTIC TANNING :] . I'm 15 and i just got my first mystic tan 2 weeks ago and it was really easy and took 5 minutes and only cost 14 dollars. I would look up tanning places that do that in your area. I went to TAN ETC, so maybe there is one of those where you live.

you shud get self tanner. it works really good but you have to be careful not to use too much. u dont want to be orange.
