I GO TO THE TANNING BED EVERY OTHER DAY, ONCE YOU GET A BASE TAN BUY THE NEW SWEDISH BEAUTY BLACK DIAMOND SHIT! IT COOKS YOU AND GIVES YOU A GREAT TAN!!! IP: Logged |

Although I hate to admit it, I go once a week or so, because I am too lazy to lie out in the sun. If you don't wear boxers or underwear, make sure you put a sock on your cock, otherwise you may get a sunburn that you will never forget. IP: Logged |

How long does it take? I've been doing research on some local places and they say it only takes @ 8 to 12 minutes because of "new" and "better" technology, blah blah blah. Also, I read somewhere that there are certain supp's that will help retain the tan, is this correct?? IP: Logged |

if you are very white start out at 4 mins or 7 mins. then go up to 10 mins, then go up to 15 and so on, until you reach 20 mins that is the max, unless you go into the high powered 10 mins. beds!!! and they are very hot!!! depends on how you tan, me it only took a few days but I am Italian ...

I go to 2 times a week, and usually chill by the pool or the beach on the weekend. The Tan you get is real looking - Booths are better than beds - they tan more evenly. With beds you will end up lighter skinned on the side of your body unless you do some crazy moves. I don't use any supplements and I got a nice golden tan, do you guys that use the creams and shit, do you KNOW it to help or do you just throw it in in case it helps? Slopain IP: Logged |

just a little piece of advise, wipe off the tanning beds with disinfectant before you get on them, yea the staff says they do it, but yea right, I worked in a tanning booth for 6 months, we rarely cleaned them. ------------------ IP: Logged |

some people don't have the time Romeo. I love it, blast off the zits when cycling, makes you look better, doesn't take long, and at about $25 a month I could spare the change. Slopain IP: Logged |
