DON'T STAY IN FOR MORE THAN 12 MINUTES!!
Anyone who tells you more obviously never been on a bed before. Did you burn the first time you went? You have to go every other day for about the first 6 sessions (depends on your bed) to build a basic tan (one that won't fade away). Depending on your skin tone, for your first time you stay for 4-8 minutes and increase by 2 minutes (until you reach 12 minutes). Only increase your time if you don't get burnt. A little redness is fine, if it disappears before your next session. After you build a basic tan, you only need to go 2 times a month to upkeep it. Again this depends on your bed.
What you wear in there is your choice. I prefer to go topless with a string bikini bottom. Most people go in with a bikini on. You can get very sweaty on the bed so make sure you wash your bikini before using it again. ALWAYS WEAR THE GOGGLES THEY PROVIDE. What you do is you press it against your face and push the arch down until the goggles suck against your eyes.
In addition, it's better to wear tanning lotion about a half hour or more before you go tanning. You actually tan better when your skin is moisturized/wet than dry. Tanning will dry out your skin quickly so put on lotion everywhere you tan at least twice a day. If your skin dries and peels, you'll basically have to start all over again.
It's definitely fine to go bowling afterwards, make sure you bring a hand towel to wipe down with and keep hydrated. You might feel a little light-headed first.
Make sure you don't try and boost up your time to fast, a full tan time is 12 minutes, no one goes for the full 12 their first time. The art of tanning is all about building it up layer by layer. Think about it, if you burn, you'll have to start all over again. You can go as dark as you want and tanning takes a bit of practice. Make sure you lie down with your legs apart and turned out. Also make sure your arms are not touching your sides or you may end up with white stripes. Someone once told me you tan better with your knee and arm lifted up a couple inches.
If you have anymore questions drop me one in my in box. Good luck!

You stay in 15-20 minuts, if you burn easily I recommend 15 minutes! You go in naked if you dont want any tanning lines -- dont worry they clean the beds! But you could wear a bathing suit or just go in your bra/underwear. Yes its okay to go bowling afterward but make sure right when you come home, to take a shower. The tan doesn't show the first day or two so dont worry but if it doesnt show later, I recommend going tanning again for another 15 minutes. Have fun ! =D

you stay in however long you want (anywhere from 10-20 mins (on 99% of tannings best levels 1 and 2 20 mins in the max you are aloud to do no matter what) ussually if its your first time in a while or you have fair skin they start you on like 13)
alls i wear is my underwear but i know people that wear their binkinis its basically the less you wear the better
Make sure you take off all your makeup and moisturize first for best results
makesure you have no metal on!
if you burn make sure its all gone before you go again
it takes a few times to see good results
and doing anything afterwards is fine although you may have a slight burn and maybe be a little sweaty!

First, how long you can stay in depends on your skin tone to start. You state you've been there once before so use that as a guide. how long did you stay in for and did you burn. Some people have no problem starting at the whole 20 min (which should be the max in a 24 hour period)
Others have to start at 10 min and move up slowly. The tanning place should help you make that decision.
As far as what you wear. Like others have said it depends on if you mind the tan lines or not. It will not hurt to tan nude. Choose a tanning accelerator that's best for your skin tone. Again ask the salon for advice. There are "tinglers" that accelerate your tanning They work by bringing your blood closer to your skin and you will feel a burning during and for about an hour after tanning so be careful with those.
As far as bowling, thats fine as long as you put your cloths back on :)

You can stay in for 15-20 minutes is best, depending on just how tan you want to get. Make it 15 if you want a lighter tan, and 20 if you want it a little darker. No more than 20 minutes though!
You can wear your bathing suit, if you want. I think that is the most conveniant. If you want no lines, then I guess you could go naked, but you should probably go with your bathing suit.
I think Banana Boat dark tanning oil is the best, and you might also want to wear some sunscreen. Definitely check out Hawaiian Tropic products, sunscreen and lotion. It is a good idea to apply a mosturizing lotion after tanning so that you have not just tan, but radiant skin.
And it is fine to go bowling afterward!

stay in there for about 20 minutes..the more you go the longer you can stay in.
you dont have to wear anything at all but you can just wear underwear if you dont mind the tan lines.
i use a lotion called tropical hawaiian(dark), it works pretty good and you can get it anywhere like walmart or target.it smells really good too.
and its deff ok to go bowling afterwards!

okay
-maybe 20 minutes (thats how long i do)
- im a girl n i wear just underwear because you really dont want to have tan lines
- wear some self tanner with sun activation before you go in there...it works more
- yeah thats fine... bring some deoderant tho because you may be sweaty

Actually, its rare to get skin cancer from a tanning salon. Ok, first off, you stay in for about 20-30 minutes, You should wear a bathing suit {bikini} or just put on a bra and underwear. Have the person who works there recommend a tanning lotion for you. Make sure before you go in, you or the person who works there wipes off the tanning bed with a clean towel. Yes, its fine to go bowling afterward. Hope I Helped!
