no fake tanning isnt safe. my mom did it for a while..like every friday with my aunt (her sister) and it just makes ur face look aged and fake. it also increases ur chances of cancer by 50% every time that you di fake tanning or get sunburned. I would put on some fake tanner and deal with it or use sunscreen and go get a tan outside without burning.

No No No NO!!!! Tanning of ANY sort is NOT SAFE! Tanning booths are actually more dangerous than natural sunlight, as they are so much more intense. Tanning WILL NOT cover stretch marks, and may make them more visible! If you want a sunlit glow, instead of going to a tanning booth, use a self-tanner. Use the money you would spend on a booth to get a great self-tanning system like Fusion Beauty's system or go to a professional airbrush salon. Get your glow on that way, then use the highest SPF you can find on a daily basis. Your skin will thank you in 20 years, believe me!

No use my English teacher for example. She has been going to the tanning salon for 10 years and now she is 30 and looks like shes 40. Use some of that tanning oil stuff.
I'm a guy and this is what i've seen.
fyi Getting a little tan over the weekend isnt bad ;)

devoid of shifting into the lame arguments approximately IARC, seventy 5% BS and style one million cancer agents (all bunk - see sources under), it boils all the way down to this: Any in charge tan parlor won't enable her close to a solar mattress devoid of parental consent. Plus, in some states it incredibly is banned for every person under 18 so there may well be no argument right here.. no count number if it incredibly is authorized, it incredibly ought to be as much as the mummy and dad to do their study to make an informed decision on no count number if or no longer they sense a base tan in the previous the trip will preclude a serious burn later - and it incredibly is those burns that are the difficulty, no longer the tanning itself. each and every of the study quoted by making use of different responders say that in the event that they look previous the sensationalistic headlines and get into the beef of the comments. mom and dad: do the the final option ingredient - do your study, discover out if it incredibly is even allowed the place you reside, and make an sensible, knowledgeable decision.

No unfortunately it does not cover up stretch marks, and its not safe. But that does not stop us girls. The best thing to do is just only do it for a short period of time and DONT LET YOURSELF BURN!! That is bad. But do not expect to be tan on your fist time, you will see results in about 5 tans.

It's not safe, it's actually one of the worst things you can do to your skin. Besides increasing your chances for skin cancer, it will age you prematurely. Your skin will look like dried up leather. It will give you wrinkles, discolorations, and age spots. If you want a tan use sunless tanning lotions. And, always use sunscreen.

NO! Tanning beds and any kind of unatural tanning (except spray on) is SO bad for you. It increases your skin cancer risk by over 30x. To answer your three questions, sometimes, no, and no. So you're better off being in the sun or using a spray on tan.

No, Not if you want skin cancer.
The lights they use are ultra violate rays and, well, them are the same radiation lights as the sun has. It works but at a bad cost. No it does not cover stretch marks. Do not go tanning unless you want skin cancer and surgery.

It is not safe, it usually makes my stretch marks darker, but
look up Melanotan. It is an injection that stimulates you melanin and helps your skin darken and protect itself. It is not really legal or illegal just has not come out on the market yet. I tried it ...it worked. I was pleased I am going to do another cycle soon.

Actually tanning is not really good for your skin. It is like a light sunburn. Just don't get to tan or you'll get cancer!
