can't get my head around this - 13-05-08, 02:15 PM

I have had this on my mind all morning now and I simply can't get my head around the fact that it is legal to sell home applid systems involving syringe needles to the general public in order that they can inject themselves at home without any qualification or supervision...I just cant see how trading standards would alow this....

This has got to be highly dangerouse..what if you stick the needle into an archery or inject an air bubble into your blood ....this cant be legal

Well collin this is why I posted this thread cos I thought too that it can`t be right that you can put this stuff in your body without proper trainning.
I now know of 2 men who have used an one is still using this stuff, but both have said it has made their facial hair black both are natural redheads!!!!

This realy is scary and shouldnt be allowed..cant be???? you cant go selling syringes for people at home to inject themselves with....what is the brand name as maybe I will have a look see at this issue??

if this stuff urns a red hair into a black one and although I am dark haired then maybe this is something I should try as could do with loosing some grey ...only kidding as certainly would not want to be going sticking needles into myself

Decreased appetite AND increased libido?.......where do I sign up?

JK-I'm not big on needles, so I'd never be able to inject myself. It's too bad though, it sounds almost worth it.

Hi, although this sounds good , it also sounds very dangerous too
what about any long term effects ?
I'm afraid my opinions are exactly the same as Collins ,
I would rather stick to a good old spray tan thank you lol x x minky

I prefer tanning pills and spray tans myself.

I hate needles and so thats a no go, and as collin said if you inject air into yourself its bye bye you as soon as that bubble reaches your heart!

Even tho I myself like collin can`t get my head round this barbaric means of getting a tan, on one of the links it says the needles are only 5mm long so there is no risk of getting air bubbles into an artery.

You don't put it in a vein... you just jab a fat bit!! The needle is tiny, just like a diabetics needle.

Gosh, got to agree with Collin, not my cup of tea and not sure I would want to encourage my customers to do it. Each to their own I suppose, people will sometimes do owt for vanity, sounds bit far fetched, what would you put on your advertising material, inject yourself with some of this and get brown or change your hair colour - oohhh noooo. Some side effects arent overly bad though ! lol

I heard about this from my hairdresser (fellow non-tanner) and though it sounded fab. He is very into anything aesthetic and had found out that paler people have a 'chemical' which blocks natural melanin production in the body and this product stops this which leads to a tan via UV exposure.

Do you guys know if this is correct or just shpeel?

Sounds right......
I mean the simple thing is, us pale ones just dont tan, so if that injection helps, why not? i can spend a fortune on sunbeds and nothing happen, and i worry how much i use them for little result.

I need to know where does this injection, i may just give it one shot and see if it does what it says.

Anyone in North east or East Anglia know anywhere?
