Sure, but you’d have to put sunscreen on the part of your arms that’s already dark, or it’ll still look slightly uneven for the first couple of sessions.
You buy blocks of minutes (like $30 for 200 minutes or something along those lines), and use them in increments of 10 or 15 minutes each — depending on how well or quickly you tan, you might want choose the shorter session. Spread your sessions out over a long period — don’t go every single day or you’ll come out looking ridiculous. Go once every three or four days. Also, ASK before you even get assigned a bed if the bulbs are new or not. NEW bulbs will burn you faster than bulbs that have been in use for a while.
You’ll need to purchase goggles to protect your eyes — they’ll sell them at the tanning salon. DO NOT ATTEMPT to get away with going under those lights WITHOUT eye protection. I’ve got the type of goggles that are actually just two little “cups” that you set over your eyes once you lay down.
I have very fair skin and I only take two or three 10-minute sessions, spread out over a week, to put enough color onto my bod to not look like a zombie.
