I am a guy and I am going back to school this fall and I haven’t had a chance to get a tan this summer. I’ ve decided to go to a tanning salon, but im worried,]. I tan easily, and I’m not extremely pale. I really want to avoid the “fake” tan look, I want to make it seem like its a genuine sun tan. How do I achieve this?
It will look genuine. Afterall, you’re getting the same UVA/UVB rays. BUT I don’t recommend it. Recent studies show that it increases your chances of Skin Cancer each time you use the beds. Try the mystique tan.. go for a few sessions. I’ve done it. Or just lay out in your backyard or something for a few minutes for a few days.
During the Bush Administration I receive tons of Bush jokes from my liberal friends and relative even in my home town of Atlanta the local cartoonist did Bush almost every day with huge ears(who has bigger ears than Obama). Now I have to search hard for anything making fun of Obama I like poking fun of everyone as long as it is of EVERYONE so what am I to conclude is making fun of the messiah blasphemous tan amount to treason…. anyone that have a good website could you please pass it along.
And every couple of weeks we would see a caricature of Bush as a Chimp. You’ll never see that in the MSM of Obama. That would be racist.

My fiance and I are getting Spray Tanning, the one where someone sprays you with an airbrush. Neither of us have done this before and the only technition theres is a woman. She said going nude for us both is ok. We don’t want tan lines buy my fiance is worried about his junk just getting sprayed on the one side. Do they move it around to get it evenly or is he going ot have some funky lines down there?
Just wondering if any men have done this or any of you ladies have boyfriends/husbands who have?
Let us know how it goes, and good luck. I’ve never done the spray tanning on the “junk”; we just go to the nude beach or out back by the pool and get the real thing!

I’m going to the beach for a week and I’m paper white. I want to get a tan, but I’m completely clueless. Do I need Taning lotion? Or is sunscreen sufficient?
Also, if i’m going for the whole week, and I don’t go Sun Tanning often, is it a good idea to go every day for that week? Or doesn’t it matter?
Thanks so much everyone! My tan is in your hands!
Sunscreen, every hour or so and whenever you get out of the water. Be careful of tanlines, and don’t stay out too long. Sunburns aren’t fun!
I am wanting to start a mobile Tanning business..?
who is the best distributor? what is the best solution?…cost efficient.. i think i might get a maxi mist … any thoughts?? i guess i just need to know the best and cheapest way to start the business..
A mobile Tanning Business is a Spray Tan… it is not a dying business,, it is actually a great $ making business because it does not cause cancer like the mom and pop shops that are closing!
if you need a cashier hit me up.
