There is one of my friend at work who has a 13 years old daughter. As a gift to her daughter she decide to pay for some session in a tanning room (not sure of the name in englsih :P). I told her that before 16 years old it can be dangerous, but she told me he only gonna go 5min once a month. Even for that, it's still dangerous. It,s not good to go to often for an adult, so just imagine kid.
Will you let your teenager go to a tanning room?

That's awful, it really is. I mean, if she were to do something like that, she should make it a spray on tan. They are so much healthier.
I don't understand why tan skin is so popular now. It's ridiculous.

You know that is starting to change as people are now realizing that it's not healthy, that and most people don't have time or money to tan anymore. I think most people who do the really tan look, have a fake look about them, kinda like there made of dull plastic.

I don't see that changing it here. More and more people I know go tanning.
But they want to have a law so kids under 16 or 18 (not sure) can go tanning. It's really unhealthy for kids skin.

I'm not a mom yet, but with all the problems with skin cancer I wouldn't let them go near one. There are so many good spray on self tanning salons now, (at least in the u.s) that I would rather they go there.
