Tanning?

ad

So I was wondering on how many people Tan in tanning salons? I am pretty white let me tell you and it seems that people with some more color always appear to have more definition even if we are close to same stats. Also its supposed to be good to keep oil in skin lower and dry you out some. Just curious on how does it and how long you do it since I am thinking about starting? Also of you do how do you start put do I don't fry myself 1st time in? Lol

when i was thinking of joining my gym the guy was using the tanning bed as a serious selling point. he was talking about the tanning beds for like 5 minutes, i hated to be rude but I interupted him and said "you do realise im black right" lol. he moved on to something else then lol. thing is id actually like to be darker than I am but a black dude on a tanning bed, thats freaking rediculous!! Thank God we get like 5 or 6 good sunny months where I live so I tan naturally instead of using a bed.

Melanotan II is no joke. It works very well. I use it every spring but have to be careful of getting too dark. I'm of English descent and this stuff will make me look like an islander and then friends start telling me to stay out of the tanning bed. LOL!

You said it bro. God damn Gaelic ancestry fucked me naturally so I use this every spring. By the end of summer it looks like I belong on "Jersey Shore" haha

my wife works for the derm doc. she used to tan and ever since she started working there several years ago she WILL NOT tan at all. she sees what it does to your skin and body. i am against it too. she now does those lotion/spray tans.

Bed tanning is out with the new Melotan 2 nasel spray and subcutaieous injections. Check it out and get out of those bed that are bad for your skin. This stuff works great and the only side effect is you get horney. trust me this shit works and you can buy it anywhere on line.

Melotan 2 is the bomb, iv'e used it before.. I have a type 1 skin so that means im pasty as fuck.. did a cycle of thats stuff, which is about two to three weeks, and wwwwaaammmo.. a nice light brown and the tan literraly lasted over a month.. and I only went tanning like one or twice a week.. only downfall is that I had to inject before bed because the shit gave me the worst headaches.. but besides that the shit was mint.

I don't go to tanning studios in summer, but in winter I visit them once or twice a week, depending how much free time I have left. I'm not fond of tanning lotions, I never got a good effect when I used them.. maybe I've used the wrong product? Has anybody a recommendation?

k thanks.. No I do not insist on tanning bed, i would just prefer it to the sprays because i can't stand the smell of them and they tend to streak and run(correct?). Im not trying to get super dark just a little tan going on, usually i can just go outside in swim trunks for a hour or so a day and in a couple weeks have a little color, but its too cold out right now for that. Might just suck it up and try the spray thing out and hope i don't smell for too long haha

I try and only do it when my skin gets really oily. Keeping a tan all the time is not worth the long term effects of tanning. Yes you do see more muscle definition and striation, but in the long run tanning will age your skin much quicker and make you appear much older.

I tan. I ran easily so I go 3 times every 2 weeks.

Damn sorry to hear, hopefully all is well now. Yea it's still not for sure I'm not trying to get super dark or anything just a little color besides white lol.. Maybe spray tan but that shit stinks and come off after water n stuff, plus makes you look more orange than tan

What's up my man? I would of thought you would of used melanotan.

If you are wanting to remain healthy stay clear of tanning salons. I would rather take A bombs for 12 weeks than spend that much time in a tanning salon

I actually do it to make myself feel better lol, and for women. Women love a bloke with a tan. But yes the skin is darker so you appear more defined. Also stops me breaking out with too much acne. If I'm pastey white I will go on 3-4 times first week. After that I'll go on once a week to keep my tan. But i only need a 40 watt lightbulb to tan. Its up to you how you do it but do it in moderation, try 3 minutes first since you have never been on and make sure you dont come out like a lobster, then I usually only do 6 minutes a time its all I need.
