In regards to your recommendation to not tan naked, as long as a person builds up their time in a tanning bed, they can tan naked. At Sun Tan City, we recommend a person determines the time they tan based on their most sensitive area of skin. So this would be the skin that sees the least amount of sun. Covering skin with cotton material only provides a minimal amount of protection, and the tanning time needs to be adjusted because of this. I hope this helps! Nobody wants a burnt bum

Your tips are beneficial for all of us. Personally get tan under the sun is indeed will harm our skin if the necessary protection is not taken. What do you think?
I disagree – it’s ok for a person to tan in the nude. However, it’s important that when you start tanning that you tan for the most pale part of your body. While your arms and legs may be fine, the areas that aren’t exposed to sunlight on a regular basis will not.
