Question about tanning beds?

Question

i went to the beach for 2 weeks on vacation, and i got pretty tan, but its pretty uneven. senior pics are in 2 days, and i wanna even it out plus look even tanner by then.

first off, i have never been in a tanning bed before (only spray tanning) so i have no idea what to expect. what do i wear or what lotions should i put on before?

second, would my tan even out and look darker if i went tonight?

thank you so much! please dont give me lines like how tanning is bad for you, i know all that. im only going this one time (hopefully!)

Answer 1

id say put sunscreen on the darker skin, maybe that might help to even things out. ask the people operating the salon

Answer 2

well from my experience, tanning beds do NOT work, you're better off with a spray on tan

you go in there with nthing but your bra and underwear on, but they dont even make you look NEARLY as dark as natural tanning would.

my advice would be that you get a spray-on tan

Answer 3

use a bronzer they usualy sell small samples at the front desk. and yes you can get dark-er after one session! it takes a few hours to set in. But if you want to even out go in the stand up booth! basicly you will even out more than not going so go for it and....

goodluck

Well one thing, a tanning bed isn't going to make that big of a difference going in once.  It atleast takes a couple times to get any type of color especially if you are trying to even out a tan.  Um if you do decide to go if you are talking about what to wear on your body, like clothes wise, you can wear underwear if you want but most people go in nude, just make sure you pick a really clean tanning salon.   I use a tanning lotion with a bronzer in it.  It will not turn you orange if its not a self tanner, but it gives you a little bit of instant color.  

Answer 5

normally you have to go about 3 times, to look somewhat darker. but you only spend about 3-10 minutes in one. you'd have to go to a place that ownes tanning beds, and ask them all this. tell them how dark you wanna get, and they'll tell you how long you need to be in.
