Oooppss - I am going to upset some peeps but I voted sunbed - reason?? I have several/lots of clients with psoriasis and eczema who have had sunbeds prescribed by docs - so I believe that if a client can go on a sunbed which is so strong that they can only go on for 30 SECS then I can safely go on an everyday sunbed for 6 or 9 mins.

I don't sunbathe and do not go on the sunbed on a regular basis BUT I realise that our skin sheds and renews, so I will top up my tan on a continuing basis cos I don't like my skin colour to be as pale as Mortitia

hope that makes sense Deb xxx

Sunbed.
Preferance for the colour personally.
And preferance as to what my salon customers use the most also.
My cash flow wishes it was spray tan though.

Spray Tan - 09-10-06, 11:00 PM

Hi,

I voted Spray Tan, I used to use the sunbed but don't tan very well and I could never get that lovely deep tan that a spray tan will give you, its far safer too. A friend of mine had a mole on her leg which turned cancerous after over exposure of sunbeds.

Oh and I'm in Cardiff!
