  • Funny, many dermotologists use UV to cure skin disorders. Why is it good for them to use, but bad for tanning salons to use? Maybe because tanning salons are way less expensive (cutting into the huge income that Dermatologists make). Why would someone pay hundreds of dollars for a Dr's UV when they can get the same UV from a tanning salon for $10 (or outside for FREE)!

  • After watching Final Destination 3, who would even want to go into a tanning bed. lol.

Now 3 months later, i am very golden brown and you can barely see a pimple on my face. i get compliments on my tan all the time. tanning beds pretty much saved my social lfie, i used to be scared of going anywere based on mylooks..but no have a way increase in confidence and im loving it,
