I personally wouldn’t recommend this. I once went tanning to days in the row and developed this nasty itch.

Sometime that happens when you first start tanning. It happened to me when I started tanning but I dont have a prob with it now. It could also be the lotion you used or that you didnt use a lotion at all.

eek, skin cancer and leather faces. tanning isnt a good thing. Im irish, and if i even think of the sun ill get burned.

you should try the spray on tan. it actually looks pretty good on a lot of people. and it will help protect your skin against the sun.

Marcus, dont go more then once a week… you will burn and look like shit.  
10 minutes first 3 times… less if they just changed the bulbs. Use a lotion before and after. After you have a base you can go twice a week… I would not go any more then that

Man, I miss my tanning bed back home. My mom had one in the garage because she “has” to stay tan all year long.

I used to go at least 3 times a week during the winter, but not now.

Usually I’d go the first time 8 minutes, then 2nd 12, and then the rest 18-20 and I’d be fine. But of course it all depends on the bulbs and how your skin reacts.

Yup, works on all sorts of skin issues as well; I know if I go for a month or so, I’ll have a nice tan, and my skin will be clean and clear.

That might work for some people, but it really depends on his skin and his tanning history.

I worked for both total tan and sun plus. I have to say, I wouldn’t recommend total tan (lots of shady shit going on there), but do what you want.

Marcus, when you go in, (if they actually know what they’re doing) they’ll tell you how long you should go for after answering questions about your skin.

If you, or anyone else, has questions, let me know. I pretty much know the tanning industry inside and out.

Depends on what one you go to. I worked at a few different stores to get some extra hours. You can definitely tell which places care and which don’t ☹
