Answer 1

i use the regular bed, for 20 min. a session 7x/week...in my opinion, the bronzing beds are overrated (which i think u are refering to as the "tropical bed")...i have been told that u will get a more bronze skin tone, because these beds emit more uvb than uva light & it is deeper in the skin tissue...the regular beds are supposed to give more of a pink skin tone, more like the regular sun, because they have more of the uva light...i have used the bronzing beds before, but i was not satisfied as i actually lost some of my color, even when i alternated with a regular bed at the same time, doing them on alternate days...so, in my opinion, i think u could just use the regular bed & have a good color...i am super-dark just by using the normal bed...u might want to try one of the "tingle" lotions, that`s what i use & u will get very dark, because they contain ingredients that increase blood flow & help u tan much darker...some good ones are made by swedish beauty, pro tan & fiesta sun...my favorite is "hot tottie", which is produced by pro tan...hope this helps!!! happy tanning!!!

Hi Becky, are you aware of the dangers of tanning salons? I've done so for a number of years and was lucky enough not to have contracted melanoma; however, there are other ways to safely get that awesome tan you long for. Have you tried tan towels (I got them through either QVC or HSN) and they actually do work. It takes a bit to do it right so you don't have streaks anywhere but in the long run, they really work. I read the one answer where a member suggested to lay out in the sun for the next two weeks. Obviously, she lives in an area where that is possible. Not so here in VA! We've had awful weather in the past weeks and aside from today, no way to lay out. I assume the same goes for you. If you do decide on tanning beds, make sure you do spend the extra money on protective lotion. The tingling kind works best. I sure understand about the low money, but try Walmart or other big department stores, they have it cheaper than the salons and it works just as well. The cheapest I have found was at "Big Lots" but again, I am not sure if you have one in your area. As far as the difference in beds, the tropical ones have stronger bulbs and usually are equipped with a facial bronzer. If you already have a base tan, than the tropical beds will surely work a lot faster, and your tan will remain longer and deeper on your body. Like I said, never ever without protective lotion though. Always keep your bottoms on and clean the beds before going on. I even began taking a small bottle of lysol with me! The 50 dollar difference shout not really be an issue if you spent 1K in one day. Forget it Hon, I am just jealous :) But please do invest in a good protective lotion, as well as goggles. While I know of the dangers of tanning salons, I do believe that the natural sunlight isn't much better in the health department either! Enjoy your tan, I know it makes me feel better every time. Beside, I started tanning for medical reasons, believe it or not. I have a disease that becomes easier to endure when my muscles get a real good warm up, especially before exercise or massage; however, it has kept me incapacitated for the past 4 month (cold weather causes havoc on my body!). I can't wait for the sun to return and once I have my tan back, I know that will help me a lot, at least it will help my mood and bring back the fighter in me (no, not a real fighter :), just enough strength to fight my disease). Go enjoy your tan... Hugs, MsB.

Answer 3

I would suggest spray tanning as opposed to a tanning bed. It costs about $25 for a full body tan, you can get it as light or dark as you want in one day, it only takes one application, and depending on how well your skin holds the color, it stays anywhere from 5 - 14 days. Spray tanning does not harm your skin, but it can feel sticky for a little while, and it is good to make sure you shower earlier in the day, as if you get wet too soon, it could wash off quickly. However, you may wish for a trial run first on your arms or legs if you've never spray tanned at this place before, to make sure you enjoy the way they spray, get used to the feel of it (it feels like you're getting spraypainted, and it's chilly at first), and that it doesn't turn your skin orange. I've spray tanned many times, some of which came out better than others. It's honestly the cheapest, least time-consuming, and least harmful to your skin. If you're going to a formal event on a certain day, the best time to spray tan is 2-3 days before the event. Good luck!

Answer 4

In my experience, regular beds are good to get started, but the stronger beds will give you a nice tan much faster after you have a good base tan. You also spend less time in the bed, which is great for me, because I get bored in there pretty quickly. I'm sure your salon offers upgrades. If you get the one month membership for the reg. bed, you can upgrade once a week to the tropical. Just look into it and see if it will actually save you money. Happy tanning to ya.

Answer 5

Yes! Use the regular bed, but just make sure they give you more minutes! Try doing like 15 minutes on the regular bed because it's about the same as 9 minutes on the tropical bed. Make sure you use a good tanning lotion before you get in the bed and exfoliate and moisturize everyday! Good luck!

Answer 6

whoa....... a million. you'll likely get a replace after one visit, in basic terms make positive you do not bypass in too lengthy and get burnt! 2. i ought to assert round 5-7 visits reckoning on the flexibility of the bulbs on the tanner you're going to. 3. Tanning beds provide you a similar tan. 4. i ought to continuously tan contained in the solar if I had time! you are able to continuously do both. 5. Tans from a mattress very last a lengthy time period upon getting been in many circumstances going i ought to assert about per week formerly you're going decrease back to typical. 6. no longer something truly takes position once you tan in both position except that it will genuinely will placed on off or in case you get burnt it is going to peel off. Thats why you're able to bypass extremely in many circumstances and for perfect quantities of time.

Answer 7

Lay out in the sun for 30mins a day for the next 2 weeks...you will have an awesome tan!

Answer 8
