    i heard its good but you have to wait 2-3 hours to shower after taning .. but the increased blood flow helps w/ tanning

    I guess I'm not the only one with that problem.

    I think we mean in a bed. I know I've been told to wait 1hour the minimum to shower after I tan by the employees themselves for better results. Sometimes I wait like 3-4 hours and I get a way better tan then I would if I showered right away (a waste IMO) or an hour later.

    I heard is it becasue if you get into the shower right away, you will wash the away the skin that just got tan. but if you wait, there will be time for the new tan to set in.....

    alright. but why would it differ from the bed to being outside? either way it's the uv rays that're tanning your skin, it's just in a bed the rays are a lot more concentrated. right?? so why the difference?
