Does a tanning bed tan last as long as one from the sun??

Yes. Tanning beds us UV-A and UV-B rays, just like the sun. The sun has another UV called UV-C. UV-B is the "burning ray" and tanning beds only include this UV to make the bed work properly. Sun lamps have all the same "ingredients" so to say, to create a tan as the sun, except it is in a much more controlled environment.





There is nothing fake about a tan in a tanning bed.

Does a tanning bed tan last as long as one from the sun??
It all depends on how dark you go. But on my body a Fake and Bake tan does not last as long as the ones I get in Vegas... So I'm not sure there could be many factors such as skin color and how well you take to the sun and fake sun. Hope this helps!
Reply:Yes they do. However the UV rays from the bed are much more intense than the sun. Unless Ur sunburned real bad. Be careful using a tanning bed. Being tan is not worth skin cancer when U get older. Not what U wanted 2 hear but that's the way that is. Good luck 2 you.
