There are actually cases where moms give their daughters gift cards or coupons for tanning salons as presents... I mean, for a whole year, every single week... if that were me, I'd lose it. 😁
You ladies don't even have decent skin...
Personally, I think a tan looks way better than being pale, but I would never touch a tanning bed myself.
Me again. 😁
Look, people addicted to tanning lie. It’s just like people dealing with anorexia or bulimia. You're never going to hear someone who tans every single day admit they do it daily. They'll lie to you—saying it's twice a week, or once a week for thirty minutes... but you can tell by their color that they've been roasted like a lamb on a spit.
Second thing: there are different types of beds with different intensities. For instance, I never go to those Turbo or Walmart crap setups. You go to a basic beginner chair, and you can even turn off the facial lamps.
Personally, I don't turn them off, because that's exactly why I go—my face always clears up after a session. My acne disappears, blackheads clear out, my pores tighten up a bit... It's the same with natural sunlight, but since I don't get much of that here, my doctor actually recommended tanning.
Look, it's the same as marijuana—some people would never touch it or have no need for it, some have no self-control, and for others, it actually helps. 🙂
But grouping everyone who uses a tanning bed into one category is just pure ignorance.
