    this is funny, I was just talkin to some girls i know who work at the spa downtown and they are offering me to go tanning with them when Im out. I think I just may have to do this.

    starting to get pastey white again, gotta love the colder wet months of the year

    i tan twice somtimes 3 times a week. i use the shitty 5 dollar beds. they seem to do the job very well if u keep up with it.

    Dont do the spray tan, clogs the pors and makes you look orange

    Agreed. One of the marines (African American) in my unit got sunburned in Bahrain. If you got skin, regardless of color, you can get sunburned.

    BTW, I'm white as a sheet. Does it look like I should be using tanning beds? Hell no. I'll have to use some Melanotan II for a while before I shake n' bake.

    i wouldnt have said evil predator's comment was stupid, as id imagine the majority of people would think the same thing. he never said you wouldnt burn, just that he didnt think black people would need to go on beds.

    No, I'd go with stupid. I've had White people ask me why I would want to be darker as if being darker is a bad thing.

    The show I did a couple of weeks ago I did not tan enough. I was too light under the stage lights and looked a bit washed out. My last show I tanned for 3 weeks plus did 4 coats of protan and my color came out very nice. This time I only tanned for 2 weeks and did 2 coats of protan. Could see a big difference.

    White people just think of tanning as a way of getting a certain color and that is why people (white) think it's odd when black people tan. White people just assume that people of darker color don't burn. Trust me, I hear the same comments after a black person leaves the salon and a white member (usually women) will ask in a shy-like tone " do black people tan" then I have to explain it to them
