Did the booth years ago, time consuming, but works. Never tried the spray tan. I'm trying to decide.
Pros and cons, which do you prefer?

One causes cancer, one doesn't.

Natural sun with lots of sunblock.

I know ( I'm always worried about that) that's why I asked about the spray tan.

Terri had a Wolfe professional tanning bed until she got a melanoma a few years back (she's OK now, thank god) and she had a chunk of her thigh chopped out, now she uses lots of sun screen and we bought a LVHP sprayer and I spray her once a week, usually I spray her Thursday night, it has to stay on for three hours, so I spray her around 7:00pm then she takes a shower at 10:00pm before bedtime, works great.

She has a beautiful tan all weekend and by Wednesday she's ready for a touch up the next day, she's use the same stuff that they use on DWTS, much, much cheaper spraying yourself.

Dahm, I'm smart.

Ok I'll look into it, does it look natural, does it fade evenly?

It's called South Seas skin care, it's about $200 for 4 liters, yes, if you apply it evenly, it will fade evenly, it doesn't take long to become a "master sprayer" like me, plus she's naiked in the garage, woo woooooo.

Studies have shown that those tanning booths are terrible for your skin. Time consuming? Ummm aren't you only supposed to stay inside them for only 5-10mins?

I wouldn't do it, and who knows on the spray tan will turn out? Depending on if the lady knows what she's doing? Personally, I'm just showing up to DS pale white, with a farmers tan.. Lol I don't care I'm working all week also, I don't have to time to be worrying about my tan...:wink: I'll just tan when I get to Havi!
The beds I used to go in were 30 min, it's probably less now. Us girls have to take care of ourselves!

What are you doing right now? I'm sitting in the sun using sunscreen with a bronzer. Sort of a combination of a spray tan with the sun :)

Terri was a sun goddess for years, was always super dark from her tanning bed and laying out under Mother Nature in the Summer, then one year a few back she went to her dermatologist, bad news, skin cancer, sold the tanning bed and started spray tanning, no one can tell it's a spray, a nice tan isn't worth dieing for, be careful ladies.

I used lay in tanning beds in the off season to fight the winter blues. Always felt great afterwards. Who knows if that's what caused my Melanoma.

I have two colors....white and red. White seems to hurt a lot less so I go with that.

I love spray tans!!! I just got one this weekend!! Works great for events or if you want a pick me up. You just have to follow the care steps they give to you make your tan last as long as possible.. Ive tried a few different places and really like the one I most recently went to. You have to be sprayed by a person, the machines suck.

Got my wife a spray tan set up. She'll use it if she feels too blanco, especially early in the season. Once some natural base tan is established she doesn't use it much. She's fair skinned and gets shit cut out regularly by her dermatologist so 40-50spf is the norm.

Laying out with babyoil applied is so outdated now...lol:p
