uneven tan from sunbed

[Elite_Fry]

Hello. Ive been using a sunbed (one when you lie down), but ive noticed that the sides of me are not tanning as well as the rest. Is this normal??

yeah completely normal! once youve gone a few times, you got to rotate from time to time. Lie on one side for 10 minutes, then the other, etc. Sometimes I lie on my stomach too...Just move around a bit, they'll go away!

yeah try lying on your sides, it's pretty common... I do stand ups now tho... i'm hooked. the place i go has a 200 watt bed that just does not burn you, something to do with uva or uvb rays... not sure of the science, but I can go like once a week and stay a decent color 3 times a week and i can get dark as possible too, so it rocks. called a panther if you ever wanna look for a salon that has one.

I had the same problem - find a salon that has stand up beds. The bulbs are stronger so you're in there a shorter time, and you don't get those white sides or spots on your ass and shoulderblades.

You just rotate yourself during your tanning sessions...lie on your side and stomach as well. That should get rid of the white sides and white spots on the shoulder baldes and ass cheecks.
