Skin thing, never heard of it. Not wearing googles ruining you eyes is true though. From what I know tanning beds use UV rays which are damaging to your skin and eyes. People use sunglasses and sunscreen to protect themselves from it, but in real life it's not that much of an issue. In tanning bed however you kind of exposure you wouldn't natrually get, even if you were hanging out in a desert for a whole day. You don't need googles though, closing your eyes will also do the job
Your friends didn't notice it because it takes time.It won't make you blind right away. tanning beds are like sugar or cigarettes, they kill you slowly0 0 0 0I honestly don't know. I personally don't believe in tanning beds. They have been linked to far too much skin cancer for my taste. Plus seeing as a tan is actually skin damage I prefer to not wrinkly meself prematurely. The only time I think they are OK is I had a friend with really bad psoriasis and apparently since she couldn't afford the light therapy her dr told her that a tanning bed was very similar and it did help her skin quite a bit.

But just as a plug here - DONT get in a tanning bed, since it's introduction, the rates of skin cancer have spiked by thousands.0 0 0 0

My girlfriend's been on birth control for over a decade. It's never affected her ability to tan.
