Tanning


Question Posted Saturday July 26 2008, 10:33 pm

I want to start tanning in a tanning bed..Im 15 years old and my mom is fine with it..I don't want any answers like "you can get skin cancer" or "you can die" BECAUSE there are so many things you can die from and i already know that..i just want to know how dark would you get going tanning 4 days a week? and i would be using a lotion to deepen your tan.. and how much does it cost monthly? please answer quickly

expensive

one session is usually $7 minumum. when you start going dont go for very long. you need to start with maybe 5 minutes..then gradually youll be able to go in for longer. monthly packages are usually around $40. this means you can go whenever you want for a month.

tanning made me feel better about myself because i normally have very fair skin...now that i have a pretty good tan from the summer, im not going to use a tanning bed anymore. in reality its NOT worth it. i know you dont wanna hear it but it isnt. im going to start using a self tanner and getting tan from the sun instead of artifical, deadly tanning beds. whatever you do, do NOT go tanning twice in one day. girls have died from this..your insides will literally cook.

be smart and safe

Okay, there are a lot of things you can die from yes. But sweetie, skin cancer is completely preventable, especially in your case. You're taking for granted the fact that you don't have it. And you know what? If you go to a tanning salon, you're bound to get it. I know that this isn't what you wanted to hear, but somebody had to say it.

I'll try to actually answer your question though...

Might I suggest using a self tanner instead? It's a lot better for you than exposing yourself to unnecessary UV rays.
But anyways, the cost of the appointments really all depends on which place you are going to. If you absolutely must go, check with them first. As for how dark you would get, that all depends on your complexion, the amount of exposure (i.e. how long your appointment is), and how 'powerful' the tanning beds are. So honestly, if you want answers, check with the salon your going to.

I know this isn't what you want to hear but I'll say this in closing: You only have one body. Why destroy it?
