im 16/f. i try all the time to safely tan outside, but i just do not tan! i usually dont tan or burn at all, or i burn a little and thats it. i use spray tan bottles but i want a natural tan! my mom use to go to the booths and now shes tan, and although it can cause cancer, i only am choosing to go maybe 2 or 3 times, just to get a little color. theres a tanning booth place by my house where you stand instead of lay. i know it depends, but for anyone whose had those tans, how good do they work the first few times and how long do they last? thanks!!
oh plus, ive got stretch marks and being more tan than i am now will help hide them a bit =P

I've been tanning for a pretty long time, and I realized that I tan much faster in a tanning bed rather than outside in the sun. The first like 3 times I went, I got a little burnt though..because my skin wasn't use to getting rays that close to my skin. But after that, I had a nice dark tan. Depending on a person's skin type, a tan from a bed can last up to several weeks.
