Do you prefer to spray ta or to tan in a tanning bed?

Do you prefer to spray ta or to tan in a tanning bed?
Tanning bed= less risk of a fake tan, looks more natural, less maintenance.





Spray Tan= no risk of cancer, but if you go to the wrong place can look streaky around your ankles.





Spray tan is probably the safest option but if you're looking for an absolutely perfect tan, go for tanning bed. Personally I think that if you go to a great spray tan place you'll find that the tan you get is just as good. Just have to do some research.
Reply:tanning beds are better because spray tans can leave your hands all orange and even if you get a spray tan professionally done, your skin will start to crack with the oranginess after just a week or so.
Reply:I HAVE to spray tan. The last time I used a tanning bed (even though I enjoyed it so much!) I grew a black mole that had to be removed. Now there's an ugly scar there. I'd rather spray than get skin cancer!!
Reply:I prefer bed to spray...it lasts longer. I get a tanning bed base tan and then im ready for the beach and wont burn as easily. However, tanning bed doesnt camoflague stretch marks. They wont tan. So spray if you have those. But dont turn orange...you dont want to be an oompa-loompa
Reply:spary tan, b/c it has no risk of SKIN CANCER!!


(seriously, people need to start being aware of the risks w/ sun bathing...)


ANYways, they both will give you a tan look, but like I said the spray tan has no risk of deadly cancer,and it develops quicker ( you'll only need to use it once to get very tan, and with a bed you will have to go at LEAST a week to get the same results...).
Reply:hey forget tanning beds i saw final destination 3 and it looks like spray tans are safer
Reply:You should love your skin the color it is, if you're trying to look good, then sure you'll look good, but it's not you, it's you under a mask of deceipt.
Reply:i luv the tanning bed %26amp; have been tanning in one for 15+ years, also i luv laying out by the pool or at the beach...i just never got into that self-tanner stuff, but i think there are some good ones out there now that don`t give an orange appearance to the skin...it`s just a personal preference, really...it`s possible to camouflage stretch marks, my friend had some around her hips %26amp; all from when she was pregnant %26amp; when she started back in the tanning bed they almost disappeared...i think it depends, as everyone`s skin is different...
Reply:Okay so tanning either way will not hide stretch marks. It will only accentuate them more. Now spray tanning while it may be safer and a bit quicker doesn't look natural. It's more expensive and has serious issues with streaking. I've seen women look disastrous. Tanning beds allow you to control how dark you want to get and where you tan. I think it looks more natural, less expensive and less maintenance.





Oh and one last thing. If you do spray tan and then go outdoors you're going to FRY like bacon because you don't have a base tan. Where as with a bed tan you're secure to handle the rays.
Reply:i'm african american, i use the dove and malibu tanning lotion (i've only found this brand at wal-mart) the dove is prettier, and i turns me a nice bronze color without people even questioning it, plus its inexpensive, brings out great muscle definition and make u look slimmer, i'll never go without it, i wondered what would happen if i got in a tanning bed, but i think i'll pass
Reply:either way, its a fake tan.... its not a natural tan.
Reply:The "Tanning Bed" Will Last Longer BUT, You Run The SAME RISKS As "Convetional Suntanning" (Accelerated Skin Ageing And CANCER) The Sprays Are Safer But, Don't Last Very Long Or Work Very Well And Don't Always Produce "Natural-Looking" Results On Every Skintype. Besides Being Expensive. The Best Suggestion I Can Give Is Try Some Of Those "Tanning Accelerator" Lotions. They Give Your Skin A "Booster-Shot" Of The Same Raw Materials Your Skin Uses To Produce A Tan (Coppertone® Makes Several Types And There Are Ones By Esté Lauder And Others) These Give A "Triple Benefit"- 1) It Is Your Own Tanning Mechanisim So The Results Are Totally Natural And It Lasts As Long. 2) You Get More "Color" With LESS Sun Exposure You Save Time And Your Skin From Excessive Damage. 3) The "Tan" Helps To Protect Your Skin From the Sun And You Need Less Make-Up (I Guess That's Actually Four) Just Apply The Product After Your Shower For About 2 To 3 Weeks To "Prime" Your Skin. Then, Wearing A Good Sun Screen "Grab Some Rays". You Can Use Those "Instant" Tanners to Even-Out Your Skin And Enhance Your NATRUAL Tan. Good-Luck!
