Tanning Beds!?

Do any of you guys use them? -The reason i ask this question is because I'm thinkin of going on them... but due to all the 'Go on the sun-bed & get skin-cancer' thing, i dont really know what to do.? Thanks for your time, Cymraeg

Don't ever overdo one thing and you'll be okey (ask for more info at the gym proposing the sunbeds). -------------- - Nina :o) Les Victoires éternelles sont celles du coeur.

I dont burn, and even though i moisturize like crazy and exfoliate, i find my skin starts to look "old" and im only 28, so i dont use them anymore. I do miss having a tan but i'm not fond of using self tanners.Plus a lot of cancer runs in my family on both sides.

Was allowed to use it only every other day and for only ten minutes per session, but it worked, though no one seemed to notice. I don't tan easily, I usually burn, but that is probably because I over-exposed. You need to be aware of the possible side effects of skin cancer. I've never used the "lie down". They take longer--have to bake on both sides.
