Is there a risk in tanning beds?

Im not sure if i should try it out or not. Some people have turned orange from tanning salons. So im not sure if i should just try it anyway. I've tried laying out in the sun but it doesn't really help much for me. I've also tried tanning lotions but that made my legs look orange! Can you give me any suggestions on tanning products or tanning salons?

Is there a risk in tanning beds?
i know for a fact that when using tanning beds, you could end up with brown spots on your body, and also, if you do not put on the safety goggles, then you could get some problems with your eyes, and of course the possible chance of getting skin cancer.But, other than that, tanning beds are actually safe. Unless you do excessive use of the tanning beds, then you most likely will not turn orange, or look like you had a fake tan. another good idea is using tanning lotions that give you the apperience of a tan, without the possible risks of skin cancer. if i were you, i would do this, because they are reasonably priced, are good quality, and don't have the risks.

tanning beds-best choice!





just go to a tanning salon and they'll explain everything to you! I've been there they'll tell you all the information you need to know and what each bed does. when you first go, you'll only be in there for like 5 minutes they'll check to see if it's okay then keep you going for more or something. It's also better because you will have people helping you who knows what to do! so you won't get any diseases and it will look more natural too
Reply:Yes there's a risk in tanning beds. Skin cancer, and looking alot older than you are...over time. Dried up, leathery, wrinkly skin just isn't worth it.
Reply:Well there are many risks but also many good things. The main risk is skin cancer. Second is addiction to Uv. Third is the whole orange thing, but that doesn't happen if you ask for a clear second coat thing. The good thing about it is it is faster and more convenient that laying in the sun.
Reply:try Jergens Natural Glow. It takes about 3 days to really get dark but it's even brown not orange and it actually works. Plus it's really good for your sick because it's doubles as a moisturizer. Hope this works for ya.

Reply:If you don't consider skin cancer a risk, then by all means, go for it!





There are some pretty good artificial tanning lotions out there now. They're not perfect, but they're better than cancer.





Happy New Year!
Reply:you shouldn't do it. you have a greater risk of skin cancer than if you where out in the sun. if you don't tan then you'll have less wrinkles when you're older
Reply:Yes, you can get skin cancer, and it ages your skin faster.
Reply:though tanning beds are for getting a tan skin in the absence of real sun, you are still risking your skin the harmful effects of UV rays. i believe sunblocks are not a guarantee you are safe from the UV rays, they just at least minimize but exposure to it still increases the risk of skin cancer, needless to say the pre mature aging formation of lines and wrinkles, now, who wants that??????
Reply:I've had no problem using tanning beds over the years. All you have to do is make sure that you limit your tanning time to only a few minutes at a time. Gradually tan yourself like you would at the beach and you'll be fine.
