Sunbed tanning is a cheap and effective way of achieving an all-over golden tan even when it's grey and raining outside. People will react differently to UV rays depending on the type of skin they have and their ability to tan which in turn is determined by hereditary factors. Before using a sunbed, get to know your skin type so that you can follow a tanning programme according to your skin's tanning ability. The skin of some very fair people contains very little melanin and they cannot produce it so they do not tan. They should not sunbathe or use a sunbed. A sunbed is designed to provide a gradual tanning programme without burning and accommodates different skin types. Find local tanning salons in your area and book an appointment today. Sunbeds emit ultra violet radiation in order to produce a tan. Sunbeds used to be beds and you would lie down in them but in recent years they are now standing devices. This is far more hygenic. It is important to note that Sunbeds can be damaging to your skin and have been linked to skin cancer.
