Hi

I did some spray on 10 second tan thing there last year and let me tell you it was like an 'I love Lucy' movie.....I ended up looking like a raccoon. The girl was not experienced with the machine and I thought i was on candid camera....I swear. I was waiting for the spray to come out and it felt like I was waiting forever, I went to call her and got it right in my mouth and crack of my butt!! I laughed all the way home....You can definatley get some color. just go somewhere where they know what their doing!!! I dont suggest the spray thing....

I got the membership deal there before the wedding but started in May - I would go 1 to 2 times per week. I know you mentioned doing it in less time - but I think it should work. I had a good tan early on and after a while just went to maintain. I tan very easily but noticed the first few sessions I was a little red...after that it browned nicely.

Re: hollywood tans

if you tan easily then you should have no problem getting a tan in 4 days. You just have to go every day (unless you burn or get pink) until you have the desired color.
eta: once you have the color you want, you should tan 1-2 times a week to maintain. (yeah I used to work at a tanning salon)

If i just wanted a sun-kissed glow, could i go twice and get that?

if you tan easily and do not burn..probably. but don't go for the max time the first time you go. you need to build gradually. everyone's skin is different so the amt. of times it will take you to get the color you want depends....i would try to go once this week first and see how you feel
