A tanning bed or sunbed is a device emitting ultraviolet radiation (typically 95 UVA and 5 UVB, +/3) used to produce a cosmetic tan. Regular tanning beds use several fluorescent lamps that have phosphor blends designed to emit UV in a spectrum that is somewhat similar to the sun. Smaller, home tanning beds usually have 12 to 28 100 watt lamps while systems found in salons can run from 24 to 60 lamps, each consuming 100 to 200 watts.There are also high pressure tanning beds that generate primarily UVA with some UVB by using highly specialized quartz lamps, reflector systems and filters. These are much more expensive, thus less commonly used. A tanning booth is quite similar to a tanning bed, but the individual stands while tanning and the typical power output of booths is higher.

Sunless tanning (also known as self tanning, fake tanning, or UVfree tanning) refers to applying chemicals to the body to produce an effect similar in appearance to a more traditional suntan. Sunless tanning arose in response to links between sun exposure and skin cancer discovered in the 1960s, along with other alternatives to natural sun tanning such as the use of a sunbed or tanning bed.The most effective products available are sunless tanning or self tanning lotions and sprays that contain dihydroxyacetone (DHA) as the active ingredient. The tan is not a dye, stain or paint, but a chemical reaction between the DHA and the amino acids in the dead layer on the skin surface. citation needed] This is similar to a reaction well known to food chemists called the Maillard reaction.

Tanning addiction is a rare syndrome where an individual appears to have a physical and/or psychological addiction to sunbathing or the use of tanning beds. The mechanism of the addiction is unknown at this time.In 2005, a group of dermatologists published a study showing that frequent tanners experience a loss of control over their tanning schedule, displaying a pattern of addiction similar to smokers and alcoholics.Biochemical evidence indicates that tanning addicts are addicted to an opioid release experienced during tanning. When frequent tanners took an endorphin blocker in a 2006 study, they experienced severe withdrawal symptoms, while infrequent tanners experienced no withdrawal symptoms under the same conditions.

A journey into the tanning bed
Artificial Tanning: Fake Tanning
Summer is fast approaching and everyone’s now occupied on having firm and sexy bodies, choosing their best pair of bikinis and beautifying their skin. People will notice if you’ve been to the beach because of your skin. Now, you can even go to the beach and have a tanned skin beforehand. There’s no need to stay for long hours under the sun just to have your desired summer tan.
Several things are already made not to stay permanent at present. It’s the current trend. From make-ups, lashes, lips, nose, body, and even a fake hair. Of course our skin is one of those: fake tanning or fake whitening . If you want to look fair, you may take supplements or have yourself injected with whitening products. If you want to look darker, there are various way to do so, too. Most are not permanent, and that’s the good thing with it. If ever you’ll change your mind about the decision, you just need to wait for a couple of months or years for the solution to fade and try another method again. Some even just takes days, and then the effect was already gone.
Our skin is an important part of our body. How we look depends on it, most especially our skin is our first line of protection from the environment. UV rays from the sun may harm our skin if exposed to it in such a long time. The worst thing that people are afraid of from too much exposure to these UV rays is skin cancer.
Tanning, naturally, is good. It’s priceless, easy and always fast. But the problem is that, it’s now dangerous to go under the sun without any protection since the ozone layer is already becoming thinner and thinner causing too much of these harmful rays to enter the earth’s atmosphere. That’s why skin experts are continuously thinking of ways on how to avoid skin problems from this cause. But there’s no need to worry if you can’t have your desired tan because of the dangers of the harmful rays of the sun.
Now we have what we call fake tanning. There are various ways to fake your tan. No need to worry if your friends will make a big fuss about it. It’s the trend nowadays. In fact, many consider fake tanning much better than the natural one since you can control how your tan will look like; the thickness or lightness of the tan. You may opt to applying tanning lotion, have an airbrush tan, tanning beds, and even tanning make-ups. Go to your nearest salon, or doing it by your own is just easy as one-two-three. Whatever will your choice be, expect that the result will be spectacular as long as you correctly followed the instruction on using the product. If you’re not so sure about it, ask a friend to help you apply the solution on your body just to make sure that it’s applied evenly.
With the wonderful tanned skin that you have, you’ll be confident to face the world. Be ready for the coming summer and decide now; how will I achieve my tan? Fake tanning is the fastest way to have it, so start choosing your tanning products now.
