Don't be reedickuluss.

Actually, they had a big party, and wanted to tell people how they went to jamaica or something for their vacation.... and then they won the something or other award because they were stupid ;)

and it sounds like they just put new bulbs in. it shouldn't be that hot.

i had to pick my legs up and hold them in the air due to it being so hot. i'm pretty relaxed when it comes to tolerating pain but this was frickin HOT.
like i said... it shouldn't be that hot. did you say anything to them? you don't want to get barbecued. :p

my first time i did 5 minutes in the 8 minute beds, yesterday i did 6 minutes in the 8 minute bed. today i'm going for the full 8 minutes. i'm not burnt, a little red but it doesn't hurt.

i can tolerate it but i didn't think it would get that hot, i'll say something to the girl i know that works there.

One time, a friend of a friened wanted to get tanned before Prom, and so she went to multiple tanning beds a few days before prom, to get darker, and then she died, and then they found out that her insides were all cooked by the tanning beds.

True story.

Of those males who use tanning beds, how many of you put the sock over your equipment? I had to go to one of those deals before my honeymoon and I socked that bad boy to the extreme. Ixnay on the UV ray for Mr. Penile!

As someone who's never been to a tanning place, how do they work? Are the rooms private? Are you expected to strip down naked or just to underwear? Sock thing?! What about those goggles - do they do nothing?

Inquiring minds want to know!

Yes, the rooms are private. You can get as naked as you want. The beds are disinfected after each use. The googles are to protect your eyes.

kind of like a big closet, the glasses work fine. you can strip naked(i do) or put a banana on your chest so you will have a banana print after you get tan. they have beds where you can either lay down or stand up. the rooms are private, although the ones i go to you can look over in the next room if you jump on the tanning bed:evil:

So it's just a chamber with lots of long bulbs, right? You just lay down on the bulbs? Do you have to turn? Is is dangerous to tan your weenie? :p

i'll let ya know about the weenie part later on, just started. i walk in the tanning place i go to, tell them my name then tell them if i want a 8 or 10 minute bed, i told them i only wanted to tan 5 minutes my first few times so i woulnd't burn. i get in and there is a timer thing on the wall that gives me 3 minutes to get in the bed before it starts or i can start it before that if i'm ready. it shuts off after said minutes , get out, put your clothes on and clean the bed, then you're done.

other places could be different?
