Okay, here is a safer but effective way to tan:

1. Start off your tanning for short periods with high-SPF sunscreen.
---If you don't have a tan, that means that your skin is more sensitive and exposed to the damaging UV rays (they cause skin cancer).
---You will still get a tan but just more slowly this way (aka more safely too).

2. As you get darker, you can reduce the SPF of the sunscreen and perhaps even stay out a bit longer. The darkening of your skin is your body's response to the sunlight... You body produces that darker pigment to protect your cells' DNA from the UV light (so with darker skin you are somewhat more protected from the UV rays).

Hope that this helps you tan a bit more safely (although no tanning is very safe; go and learn about a very dangerouse skin cancer called melanoma and then decide whether or not you want to try some of the tanning products).

Cheers :)

go outside and chill in the sun for a while. wear a very low spf subblock like a 5...that will keep you from burning but allow you to tan more.

Easy, grab the phone, a magazine, and a radio, and lay out in the sun for a few hours each day and before you know it, you'll be golden. Word of advise: NEVER, no matter what ANYBODY tells you, DONT put baby oil all over you. It will just burn you very very badly.
