I don't do it to get tan, although a little color is nice side effect. What you're doing is stimulating your skin, something to do with vitamin A and D, I think. Also your rods and cones in your eyes get somehow 'activated' by the UV(but do wear the protective goggles). It's just a little bit o sunshine, which increases your wellbeing. And I'm all about that.

If you buy a 'package' get a # of sessions so you can spread them out and save money. Unlimited Monthly tanning just makes you want to overdo it and get too tan, then you have to pay again next month. If you can get like 12-20 and spread em out, it lasts all winter.

Got to get on this excersize program though!
