I went to the tanning bed for the first time today. How long before I see noticable results?

You should see results in 2-3 trips, if you are fair skinned keep the first few sessions to 5 minutes or so, to avoid burning.

it depends on your skin tone.. i have fair medium skin tone and you can see the results for me after about five times tanning...
Reply:Did you do a 15 minute session? I guess it depends on your skin tone. If you are fair or very fair, it might take 3 sessions before you actually note a good difference.





I don't tan very easily...I usually burn first, so it takes me 3-4 15 minute sessions before I start seeing a nice golden tone to my skin.





My half-sister is a bit darker than I am (still fair...but more pigmentation in her skin) and she usually looks darker after 2 sessions.





Good luck!
Reply:you probably wont see noticeable results unless you tan really really good. but you will have to go several times, atleast 3 or 4 before anyone else will notice a slight difference in your tan. try getting a tanning lotion also, it will help you tan faster.

Reply:It depends on alot of things....





Me~ I can go and get in a tanning bed and be blacker than the ace of spades in 4 visits. Its because I tan good, and I'm out in the sun all the time, I wear tan marks year round....





On the other hand, I have a friends child that goes...she's 17, and will not stick her head out in the sun because she is too "hot"..... All she does is turn pink in the tanning bed, even after a month of unlimited exposure, and the most expensive tanning lotions available, she's pink. ROT, I get tickled, because she compares her legs to mine...and then she gets mad. I just laugh and tell her, "Get your buns out in the sun, and you'd turn...but you hide in the house during the day Vampira"....





So..its all dependent on how well you tan, if your using a good product or not, (I tan better without a product) if your used to the sun, or have ever been tanned before....





If this is your first time...and your how old?____ You may not tan well...you may wake up tommorrow with burn marks that peel away to fresh skin again.....





Good luck!
Reply:Generally 24 hours is the normal rate. Of course this depends on how long you went for and your skin tone.
