Can't tan for a month--HELP!!!!

MuscleUp101 · 12-23-2006, 05:01 PM

Ok, since I'm home for Xmas break, I cannot tan for about a month. I am pretty dark, have a pretty nice tan, and I was wondering how long will it last? Will it be completely faded by 4 weeks?

Also, how can I maintain the tan during this off time? Go outside for 20 min. a few days a week or so? Please help, thanks a lot!!! :)

I'm confused...why can't you tan at a tanning salon while at home? :)

Home for Xmas break??? Well, MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU! Go to a quality salon in your home town for a couple of days, THAT will feed your need for Sunshine and Vit. D.

I don't have the funding to be able to pay for a few sessions right now, it's pretty much out of the question untill about mid-January.

If you are in a sunny locale, get some sun. If not, you are pretty much destined to get pastey.

go invest in self tanner

If he could afford self tanner, he could afford a tanning session or two.

true but a cheap bottle will last longer than a few sessions

What does a self tanner do, and what is a good brand?

Also, I went out in the sun today and it seems I got a little darker, at least the half hour or so helped me to maintain. Is a half hour in the sun enough to help maintain?

I dont think we need to be suggesting a cheap bottle of anything. Isnt the party line usually visit your local salon to get a quality product.

Outside some a few times a week will be better than nothing.
