fake baking

[wackoo22]

questions how many people fake bake before going to hedo or just fake bake to avoid the winter blues we just started doing it so we dont burn our asses off

I have been tanning for 6 weeks now and I leav for Hedo 2 weeks from tmw (OMG!!) . I am only doing it for the trip. I was SCARY white and would have fried in the carribean sun.

I prefer to think of it as an indoor bake rather than a fake bake. Fake would be a spray on that looks fake rather than a booth tan that is actually a tan. We use the booth for both the winter blahs and so things have a head start before our winter travels.

I start tanning about two week before love it and i don't burn.

I get a base tan because otherwise I fry. I fried the first year no matter how much I bathed in SPF 1 million. I was reapplying a LOT, staying mainly in the shade..hat. Fry. it was horrible! Since then I've gotten a base indoor tan, but still live in spf 1 million and lose a good bit of my tan.

The sun in the carribbean is ferocious, that whole equator thing. A good idea to tan prior, hell its mandatory!

[jeaniendevildog]

It's a really good idea to tan before Hedo. Your naughty bits are not likely to see the light of day any other time. A bad burn could seriously mess up a perfectly wonderful Jamaican vacation. I have a membership and tan year round, not so much in the winter and alot more before Hedo. Hubby just tans to get ready for Hedo.

I wish I could but Dr says no go on fake tans... so I will just have to be very careful in the sun SPF 1 million, but then that doesnt help one private place now does it... LOL

i gradually go up in minutes. By June, I'll be up to 10 minutes 3xs a week (for 1 weeks!) You should ask your doctor which is worse, mega sunburn or 2.5 hours in a tanning bed over the course of 6 weeks. I'm in harrisburg and in the same boat. FRY CITY! make sure you follow the shade!

[wackoo22]

well we are gonna try 3 times a week till we go on 21st about 11 minutes a time we sunburned the last time we went to hedo spent 2 days in the room

I've been tanning the past 5 weeks to get ready...I'm pretty fair skinned and if I don't get a solid base tan, I'll burn to a crisp. the next 2 weeks I'm going to try to get there 6 more times at about 13 minutes each. Happy tanning!!

We started the tanning bed a couple of weeks ago for our upcoming trip. She tans a lot anyway, but there are parts of me that rarely see the sun. It would put a damper on the trip to get those parts badly burned on the first day there! I've also been "shading" those spots in the tanning bed a little too, just so that they can slowly get used to the rays. A friend told me to put it in a sock for a while until it gets used to it. I haven't tried that yet.

I don't know anything about this subject.......however even as a darker skin person I Burn in the Jamaica sun so do what is needed to protect yourself.

We tried it once, tried the spray tan too- prefer that- and we just keep reapplying the SPF 30 all day and never get burnt. We have a little color year round because we have such nice weather at home- just a matter of getting the bits un-luminous.

So are we the only people who read the post subject and thought "People who don't inhale"?

That aside - unless you work in a field all day wearing a banana hammock, building up a base tan whatever way you can is essential in the Jamaica sun. Mr. Locogringo is about as English / Irish / German as you can shake a stick at, and can develop a sunburn in the presence of a glow-in-the-dark football - He starts tanning at least a month in advance if not sooner. Mrs. Locogringo is blessed with more a bit more Mediterranean heritage, but even still she enjoys the comfort of bed tanning (her description: "Wwwaaarrrmmmm... Good!").
