Question

I have always wanted to go and use a tanning bed but i have no idea what its like. can u listen to music while ur in there? do u wear a bathing suit? how long do u stay in? please help.

Answer 1

When you are in a tanning bed, usually there is a radio and headphones to listen to. You wear eye goggles to protect your eyes, and you can wear a bathing suit if you wish - I don't. You stay in the bed for a length of time determined by the attendent usually based on how tan you already are and your skin type. There are enhancers and lotions you can get also.

well the common types of tanning beds are probably wat uve seen on tv and stuff, that u close ur self into laying down.
what ya do is when u get in the room, put ur lotion and goggles on and push a button and get in the tanning bed.
i muchhh prefer the standup beds tho. they give u a much more even tan and they tan me better. the standups have little handles u hold onto so it gives u a nice even tan.
u can wear a swimsuit if u want to, but i dont..i mean do u really want tan lines?? another reason i like the standup ones r because most people dont wear swimsuits and they lay down on the tanning beds. i mean even tho the staff clean them..still. lol
and yeahh theres radios in the rooms and u play those. theres speakers like actually in the standup beds. and in the laydown beds the radios usually pretty close to ur head in all of the places ive been to.
okay so the standup beds usually let u tan fulltime which is 12 minutes, and the laydowns 15 minutes for fulltime.
i naturally get realy dark, so when i started out i tanned for 8 minutes. when u get to the tanning place just ask them how long u shud be in there for. and then eventually u will move the time up until u tan for full time.
also u needa make sure ur using a good lotion and spreading it on evenly.
the 2 best are definitely peek-a-booty (which is in a green bottle) and dangerously dark (which is in a brown)
they both are accelerators with bronzers in them. peekabooty is a quad bronzer so it works really well. and then dangerously dark is a triple bronzer, but it has a higher accelerator in it. i like to switch back and forth between the 2 so i get a nice dark tan. u can buy those 2 types of lotions in almost any tanning salons. but like the first time i went i used a lotion called brown envy. thats just an accelerator and u shud prly use sumthin like that ur first time...so ur less likely to get burnt
and NEVER use hot action lotions! lol wow ull look like a lobster!! what those types of lotions do is make u look very red, but then it goes down and ur not even that tan. its gay lol


and if ya wana be extra tan, buy loreal sublime bronze tan towels and like kroger or walgreens.
i go tanning about once a week and in the middle of the week i use a tan towel. its a fake tanner but i SWEAR it doesnt make u orange! it gives good color. and with going to tanning beds too..ull be dark!!
theyre just little towelettes u rub all over ur body.





okay i hoped this gave u all the info u needa know.. i know a whole lot about tanning beds.


woahh i wrote a lot. haha

Some tanning salons have music systems. You can either choose to tan while standing, or lying down, depending on the type of beds the salon has. You apply the special lotion they have which you have to buy, and try to stay extremely still while tanning otherwise it will come out looking blotchy, not even. The other option is to get a spray tan. Warning not all tanning salons have the best bulbs, in there beds, so do your research b4 you select one.

Answer 4

whoa....... a million. you will likely get a metamorphosis after one bypass to, purely confirm you do not bypass in too long and get burnt! 2. i might say around 5-7 visits reckoning on the flexibility of the bulbs on the tanner you are going to. 3. Tanning beds supply you an analogous tan. 4. i might continually tan interior the sunlight if I had time! you may continually do the two. 5. Tans from a mattress final a on an identical time as as quickly as you have been often going i might say a pair of week before you're going decrease back to everyday. 6. not something fairly occurs once you tan in the two place different than that it is going to actual will positioned on off or in case you get burnt it is going to peel off. Thats why you're able to bypass fairly often and for ideal quantities of time.

Answer 5

if you use the bed, you can have music, and sometimes spray if you need cooling down, you also have control if you want the fans on, and how much air they blow out, i prefer just a little so i dnt get red faced, you can also control how hot you want it, i leave it on full, no point in been there other wise, but of course this depends what type of bed your using as there all different, i prefer to get naked, no tan lines, put on safe goggles, or close your eyes, once leid down pull the lid down, it fosn't come fully down! and press go. you will then need to turn half way, there should be a timer or a clock for how long you have been on for inside the bed. if you have never used it, then start of with 6 mins then build yourself up, you can also get factor 0 sunscreen, just to protect you from the rays, thats what i use. if you go on the standing up 1s they are sometimes stronger, they either have a button inside or out, step into it, it will start by it self, there are poles to hold onto at the top, just stand and wait. never go on longer then you have to, you might burn, not nice if you burn private parts. there are also a button if you want it to stop, and you can get out at any time.
in the standing up ones you don't get to control like a bed, but they always play music

Answer 6

Have a professional spray tan done.
