I worked in cancer research for 4 years. Tanning beds can give you skin cancer.

Usually any of the cancer that comes up was damage done 10 years ago.
it is against the law for them to allow anyone to go tanning in a salon for more then the opted amount of time. Depending on skin color and how easily you burn ect. I had to fill out a HUGE thing befor I was aloud to tan At my tanning place. I Dont think you are more likely to get cancer from tanning in a tanning bed for like 7 min a week. I havent been tanning since last winter but I love going because it is so warm and cowsy .

Like I said befor everything causes cancer these days, and I rather not be all peranoid about it. I just do what I love to do, and tanning is one of those things I love to do ..
