I tan at Darque tan aobut 3 times a week if not 4 and i know they want you to use their upgraded beds at an additional cost of like $6 to $14 each tan plus the $24 it costs me a month for being able to go to any bed i want (cause i live far away from where i work). I don't really use lotion cause i have heard that it is really no help, but i am not getting darker without it either!! I am Irish, german, sweedish and american indian if this helps so I am a naturally light skinned person! does anyone have any tips for me so that i may tan less and get datker?

I am a redhead who can tan with dedication. LOL. I don't burn easily but I don't tan easily either. Strange combo I know. It does not matter if I get in an upgraded bed, stand up or regular bed I have to use a product called "Heat". I'm not exactly sure why it works. It does something like open up pores or stimulate the blood vessels or something like that. It makes my skin easier to tan. Yes.....the product is called heat.....the 1st time you use it you will think you are on fire. You will come out of the bed RED. You are not burnt tho.....it goes away in a couple hours...sooner after you use it a few times. It's the only way i can get some color on me using a tanning bed. It will help if you can suck it up and use it.
I don't like to go to the tanning bed all the time....I do 4-5 the 1st week when I start going. 3-4 the 2nd and 3rd week. Then, about 2 times a week for another 2-3 weeks. By then I'm done and it's warm weather. Using the heat makes it where I don't have to go as much just to get some color before bathing suit/shorts weather.

I have the same problem you have. I use to go to the tanning bed and all the times I went I never got any darker. Instead of going in that direction, why don't you try to use the tanning lotions that you put on everyday after you shower? Try Jergens or Neutrogena or some brand like that. They do work pretty good. And not to mention, they are a lot safer too.

Just stop tanning! Why would you want to pay money to conform to the media and increase your risk of skin cancer and heavy wrinkles?

Ever heard of melanoma? You'll be sorry when you either get cancer of look like a handbag at age 30.
Use self-tanner. There are tons of them out there.
