Maybe you need a better moisturizer. Are you exfoliating before you tan? I just found Skinceuticals for my face, but haven't found anything for overall moisturizing that works as well. It's an emollience with natural extracts and oils. It works for my dry skin. Take a look around at some products online. Maybe your tanning lotion is causing a reaction.

What tanning lotion are you using? How long are you tanning? How long have you been tanning? What is your skin type? We need more info in order to help

Just to throw out a few suggestions: Have you burned lately? Burns can cause itching when the body tries to get rid of damaged skin. If you're not using a tanning lotion, then that could be the problem. Tanning will dry out your skin, so its crucial that you use a good tanning lotion and an after tan moisturizer. If you are using both types of lotion, are you using a tingle lotion? If so, they can make people itch. Also, some people have reactions to the bed cleaners. It could be any number of things.

Re: ITCHY!
 
A couple of months ago I had the hives all over my body. If you know anything about hives they itch like crazy. What I used to cool the itching was a product called Plantolin 12 Hour Body Balm. I used it every 3 hours and you can't believe how much it help stop the itching. It's made from a plant extract grown in Australia and the aborigines have been using it for centuries. It works for them and it sure worked for me.
