This can result in skin cancer; therefore, the use of tanning beds is becoming very popular. Not only will your receive a beautiful tan but you will also be giving your body Vitamin D.
There are different types of indoor tanning beds. They come in an array of styles and price tags to match. You should learn about each type before tanning so you are sure you are using one that is correct for your skin type. All tanning beds use lamps or bulbs that emit the rays needed to tan your skin. The intensity of these products can be changed for your own type of skin.
Indoor tanning beds give you a safe way to tan because you can control the amount of UV light that you receive. This is not an option when you basking in the sun on your favorite beach. Indoor tanning provides you access to tanning any time no matter the weather conditions outside.
Remember, even with tanning beds too much exposure can be harmful. You do not want your skin to turn pink, red, or burn. Be sure to talk with an assistant at your tanning salon to ensure that the bulbs are adjusted for your type of skin and do not stay longer than is needed to tan.
When it comes to benefits of using a tanning bed over natural sunlight, you will be amazed to learn that their healthy reasons to tan indoors. Using tanning beds can help you tan your skin while minimizing the risk of sunburn and maximize the benefits of getting the best tan for your skin type.
When using a tanning bed for the first time, you should schedule around 10 to 15 minutes, 2 or 3 times per week, until you have achieved your base tan. Then you can slow down your sessions to around one or two visits per week. The most important thing to remember is that you will still need to use a moisturizer to give your skin back the added moisture it needs.

Are indoor tanning beds scary for clausterphobic people?
I dont like being shut into something that i cannot see out of. If i cant see light, and things going on around me i get scared. Im thinking of going ot get a tan but im nervouse that I’ll freik out when i get closed in the bed….can someone give me an idea of what to expect?
There are standing booths you can try instead. You can control how far the lid of the tanning bed comes down. I am claustrophobic too & I don’t have a problem in a tanning bed.

YES!if you are clausterphobic, i wouldn’t ever get in to a tanning bed, you might have a heartattack.

dont worry about getting closed in. Worry about getting skin cancer. If it will keep you out of them, then yes, they are suffocatingly small inside!! Spend your money on a good self tanner instead.
References :
There are beds that don’t close completely, you can get in stronger beds that you only have to stay into for 10 min.
Or you could just take a xanax

Tanning beds should be scary to everyone because scientific evidence proves that they are very harmful for your skin.
With so many sunless tanners out there today, I would start to look into those as a solution for you. Seriously. Then you solve the problem of your claustrophobia and you’ll still have a feel-good tan.
I’ve tried many sunless tanners, and I liked L’oreal’s the best. The Jergens made me break out, the Olay didn’t give me enough tan (it just made my skin shimmer), and the Aveeno was a close second, but also just made me shimmer. L’oreal’s sunless tanner made me look healthy and natural for the summer months, and I never have to worry about tanning making me pre-age or giving me skin cancer.

don’t use the lay down bed use the stand-up one the stand-up one has a much shorter time and a much better tan instead of 20 mins laying down you spend 10 mins standing up sometimes only 5 mins. you can’t really see anything anyways with the glass you have to wear, but just remember that you can’t get locked in and it shuts off.
