Fake tan

[Gibby]

OK. Saw this on a post so I gotta ask, how many people go get the fake tan befor going? We haven't yet and the wife says it's bad for us but I damn sure don't want to burn my giblets. A damn good trip would turn into a bad one reel quick if they look like a boiled lobster.

Definitely faux tan, fake bake, get your electric sun tan beforehand! We start about 2 months before trip and go gradually. That way we don't look pale when we get nekkid!

We tan before our trip. My wife goes all year but I'll go a little over two months then stop until a few months before our next trip. I really enjoy it. Really gets me in a Hedo mood and gives me 16 mins to think nothing but Hedo.

We def pre tan. Otherwise the strong sun is a shock to you and you may get badly burned which would be much worse then a few tanning sessions. Just my 2 cents

[Scott Moore]

Pre tan before you go. We start a few months before. Ramp up to the real sun.

[ScottGail]

We get a monthly unlimited rate and go every other day for the month before we leave. Much better than being in pain for the time your there IMHO.

Wife starts about 2 months out I do about a month before sun is strong there I got black and if I don't pre tan a little before going I burn.

I was going to ask the same question only 42 days till we are back

[brokenwife]

friend of your went down with us in nov she didn't and got 2 degree burns because she won't pre tan and stayed out in the sun. She was in her room for the last 3 days of the trip.

Wife uses tanning bed before I don't.
If you burn easy then def tan before.
If you don't, you can burn easy at Hedo, so apply sunscreen early and often.

Pre tan. You need a base so you don't look like a lobster the first day. Also use 75 to 50 spf.

I have fake n baked for years during only summer. Hubby tans a month before. He has only done this we started going to Hedo. It helps with a base in a major way.

I've had skin cancer-NO FUN!Tried pre-tanning but settled on just using the SPF 50.Keeps my neon white from going to blazing red!The problem I have is exposure to the sun + ALCOHOL and heat seems to wipe me out after day two or three days.Then lose a couple days recovering before it's time to go thundering down the back stretch like Secretariat for the big finish.......

We too pre-tan before we go to Jamaica. We have two seasons where we live. Winter and the 4th of July. And laying out on the clothing optional beach all day is what we do...so showing up lily white just begs for a major sun burn.
