Answer 1

Sunbed? Are you nuts? Spray tan all the way, unless you want to age early and die young. See the link to convince you:

Answer 2

This is the best question for me, as I just had my first spray tan experience. Let me explain: I am really fair and I do not like the effects of a tanning bed. A side order of skin cancer? No thanks. So I decided to have a "mystic" brand tan. Its different from a tanning lotion because it really does distribute a very even, natural looking tan. It's also better than having a spray tan "air-brushed" which can take 20-30 minutes. A mystic tan takes about 1 minute. I NEVER LOOKED ORANGE. It was idiot proof in the sense that the machine actually talks you through the whole process. But there's always a catch, right? I found it nearly impossible to breathe in the mist that was spraying in the booth. I was literally choking on the taste and smell of this stuff. That said, its a very short process and I had a hot tan on my vacation. If you can take the awful taste or hold your breath while your in there, I would highly recommend the spray tan. It costs about 20 bucks and if you moisturize your skin, it lasts up to 10 days.

Answer 3

I would choose the spray booth versus a tanning bed. My mother died of skin cancer, the Melanoma. She didn't even lay out. She would get burned on her shoulders when picking blueberries when she wore a tank top. She had brown hair and brown eyes. I did a research on it and it showed that tanning beds are worse than the sun because it has more concentrated rays.

I have done the mystic tan booths. That makes me wonder if breathing that stuff in what it does to your lungs. It can't be good for your lungs, plus it never got the inside of my thighs even though I followed what the directions said to the Tee. Mine never lasted a week. I have fair skin and have tried it twice. It does not leave orange streaks. It made me look like I had a tan where it hit my skin at. I just do not do any of it anymore. If I did, I would probably buy something I could spray on myself.

Answer 4

Spray booth tanning is so much better for you than a tanning bed! Tanning beds are just as dangerous as being out in the sun and can cause skin cancer. Melanoma is a skin cancer that is caused by tanning beds/being out in the sun and it is the worst kind of skin cancer. There is also that risk. Much healthier to get a spray-on tan, and self-tanners also work really well. I recommend Natural Glow by Jergens.

Answer 5

The tanning booth does not damage skin but the beds will becasue of the UV Rays.
Say, Did you hear about the 27 yr old who died of skin cancer for using a tanning bed 2x a day for seven years between the ages of 14 and 21? It was on Yahoo News yesterday. So sad.

Answer 6

it was reported the other day that tanning beds are really harmfull to your skin and can cause cancer.My best advice for you is try a tanning lotion that has a bronzer in it and it helps you not have orange or brassy color lines. I do this all the time and most people think I have been to the tanning bed or that I have layed out in the sun.Good luck in finding a tanning lotion,oh by the way it is way cheaper than going to tanning bed or having them spray you down with the tanning spray

Answer 7

Spray booth. Tanning bed is just as dangerous as the outside because it uses bad rays. Hope I helped!

Answer 8

Booth! This is the safest way to get a tan. You get the tan color you want without wrinkles or skin cancer!

Answer 9

Neither. Spray tans ALWAYS come out orange, and just 15 minutes in a tanning bed can raise your chance of skin cancer up to 20 percent, depending on skin color. Neither look natural either. Get at home tanner. It looks natural (more natural anyway), and it costs WAY less.

Answer 10

Spray booth. If you keep going to tanning beds you'll get more wrinkles and it can potentially be dangerous.

Answer 11

spray booth!!!! Its last just as long, and keeps you from the danger of skin cancer you can get from tanning booths.
