sunbeds are just nice machines for giving idiots skin cancer.

some people get addicted to them, but occasional use isnt gonna give everyone cancer.

just the odd unlucky buggers who burn themselves to a crisp every time they use them
 
Go on you'll be fine

I am afraid to say that the high level radiation they output is dangerous regardless of how often you use it. It is just a matter of statistics before you get cancer, same as smoking.
 
As for tanning, forget the beds. To be honest you only need to worry about your face for your wedding day, the body tan shall come on holiday so I recommend this...

Loreal mens moisturiser , it isn't fake tan lotion but something a little more subtle. It perks your colour up a treat.
 
one of the reasons i bumped this is because i had a blast on a sunbed today to give myself a bit of colour, sick of looking half dead all the time...

i popped on for what was planned about 3-5 mins... so i bought two 3 min tokens.

i stood had a bit of a sing to some tunes on and before i new it the 6 mins ran out...

im like a flipping lobster right now. the redness is insane!

Hi all.

I'm getting married in a month and a half, and I'd like a little bit of colour so I look a little less pasty for the photos and have a bit of a head start for the honeymoon.

What are your experiences of them, in terms of are they actually any good or do they just make you go red for a few days? I have a normal Caucasian skin tone, i.e. not fair skinned or ginger, so as long as I don't go wild I should think the health risks are minimal.

There’s a local place that charges £3 for a 3 minute session I think, or £20 for 30 minutes spread over up to 2 months.

Any recommendations in terms of dos and don’ts and general opinions gratefully accepted!

oops, just realised this is a bumped old thread. oh well, my comments stand for any of you metrosexuals


I presume you are marrying a man because this is the gayest thing ever. If you are please accept my congratulations, if you are marrying a woman quit the tanning and go and get yourself a pro and 15 pints like anyone normal who is about to get hitched.

Ah I didn't notice the date of your last post. Oh well, bring on the melanoma
 
Telling you guys, its proper hillarious.

ive been on them in the past and normally i would do 4 mins, because 3 never seemed quite enough,

but today i lost track of the time and did the six...

i just had to slap after sun on all over me because im glowing like a beacon
 
I've done it quite a few times in the past and it's really not worth it. Not only does a sunbed tan fade waaaay faster than a normal tan, it also damages your skin really badly. Since I'm very fair, I'm now a bit worried for my skin.
