TANNING
How safe is tanning? and is there any long term effects like skin cancer?
I love to TAN!!! even though people have lots to say about it....i dont think theres anything wrong with it...as "sophiasaba" mentioned it does make you look more defined!!! and if ur working out..why would u wanna look pale??? so overall its NOT safe...but is there anything safe in this world?? uhh NOPE!! oh and if ur in northern california..i would recommened California Sun Centers...they are the best!!!
My Husband is a pro bodybuilder and he tans to dry up the access water from the body and skin. Tanning helps him tighten his skin so it looks more toned and ripped.
I did the mystic tan before I went on vacation. I just had my legs done as my arms were already tanned naturally from driving and being outside, even with sunscreen. I loved it! It stayed on for a good two weeks. She did my arms a tiny bit for free. That hint of colour/glow on a pair of pale legs looked great.
I believe tanning is really not good for your skin. I did it for a few years, and yea it looks great but then I did some research so I backed off a bit. If you think about it in for a sec....a tanning salon gives you a tan in 10 minutes what a whole day on the beach still cant give you....
The beach tanning does not get me tan for some reason so I did the tanning salon for a while. Either way its a risk...its your own call after that
Over exposure to the UV rays of the sun & tanning beds can cause premature aging of the skin, wrinkling, freckling, and of-course increased risk of malignant melanoma & basal cell carcinoma. Tanning beds are a bit more of a concern as people don't use sunscreen/sunblock while tanning in them. Here's an informative link www.aad.org I personally love the beach, outdoors, and in the past have used tanning beds occasionally.
