when you're first starting your base, we often times recommend going 2 days in a row, then taking a day off, and going 2 more days (do this for a week)...after that, every other day, until you get the color you want, then once a week to maintain it. make sure you're not going in for too much time (especially since you're fair skinned). you can increase the timing if you haven't burned at the current time for 4 visits...also, tan accellerators work well, and also help moisturize (moist skin tans better than dry skin), but make sure you dont use one with a bronzer. because you have light skin, the bronzer might turn you orange and streaky. ask them for their recommendation.

Well i just started tanning a couple of weeks ago. I am really white to. When i first went i didn't go very long and wasn't burnt. So I went the next day for just a little bit longer and got a very slight burn, but by the next day it was gone. You can go tomorrow but don't overdue it or you can wait a day if you want. If you really want to get any color you are gonna have to burn, just a little though. I have only gone for a couple of and since i started i have gotten some good color. I usually go 2 days in a row then take a day off. Good luck getting tan.

Sooo glad you're asking this. I'm a tanning specialist in Beverly Hills. When I get clients for the first time with pale skin, I tell them to come back in a week. That way, their skin can get used to the tone it's in now. Try it. Go to the tanning solon once every week. You'll get good results!
Hope I helped! Good luck!

as to whe you should go tanning next? NEVER!! Do you want to get skin cancer? tanning beds are no safer than the sun. Use a bronzer instead. You may live longer; plus you'll look better as you age!

Wait until after you do some research into skin cancer and the terrible effects a tanning bed has on your skin....

you should wait at least a month or just because I'm black doesn't mean that i don't have friends who are (no offense). Like from 2weeks to a month because you don't want to look red. Or you could get tanners like banana boat everyones asking my gurl if shes Dominican now I swear all the boys are up on her after she used banana boat.

Save your skin, health and money and don't return.
