How long does a sun tan lasts??

Question

Is it necessary to use chemicals to get rid of sun tan or will it fade of its own?

Answer 1

my tan is like forever ...doesnt fade no matter what i do

Answer 2

Eventually, a sun tan will fade on it's own. I'm not sure how long it will take because I've always been on the paler side. It's not an overnight thing, though. Depending on how dark you are, it could take a few weeks or months to tone down the tan. Try spending minimal time in the sun if you want your tan to go away. I don't think it's necessary to use chemicals to try and remove your tan.

Answer 3

I fades away in a few months. Normally after 6 months is gone. You do not need to use any chemicals at all.  

Answer 4

I have had the tan on my arms since i was like 6 i am now 16, so lets just say they don't fade overnight...perhaps more like decades later
