Tanning for dudes

Im about to go tanning tonight, im sick of looking pale in the winter/ spring and I want to look somewhat decent by summer. I was just wondering if its normal for straight guys to go tanning. also whats the best amount of time to go for your first time. I’ve only been once before and it was like 2 months ago and I got burnt like crazy. It was for like 12 minutes. I tan pretty well too. Any help?

Answer #1

yes. its ffine for guys to tan but the sun or at a solarium/sun bed both cause skin cancer and prematurely age your skin and face if you dont want skin cancer get a fake tan because the only safe tan is a fake tan one from a spray, bottle, can, wipe, cream, ect

Answer #2

It’s ok for any guy to tan. :)

Since you are so pale, only go for very short times - 12 minutes is way too long, try 5 minutes maximum to start of with

or you could alternatively try sun tanning lotions, which are much healthier.

Answer #3

I am straight and I go tanning. I go on for approx 9 mins but 6 is usually better to start. I am in the same position I want to look better by the summer bcos I am alwayys pale

Answer #4

It’s definitely okay for guys especially straight guys to tan…you should go for 8-10 minutes your first time then gradually increase your time…[:
