The redness usually means your either burnt, or really hot. Some tanning beds that have poor ventilation can get VERY hot, Therefore turn you pink/red for a while. Otherwise, you are burned. I would recommend starting out at 6 minutes for the first week, then going up 3 minutes every other day. Once you get your desired color you only need to go once or twice a week to keep the tan up.

Good luck and be safe!

Where can you buy a tanning bed?

You can buy a self-tanning bed offline (see Yellow Pages) or online. Some use Wolff lamps and have the widest tanning surface of any home tanning bed. They have them in 120 volt and 220 volt versions and you can get them with 16, 24 or 32 lamps. Some can offer free shipping too which is a considerable savings. Some also let you choose what color you prefer, silver, black or red and they have an MP3 Player/Body Fan option which is cool. See sources and related links for further information.

Can contact lenses melt in a tanning bed?

No. Don't overdo the tanning bed. You can get skin cancer and die early. In the UK it is considered that over 100 people die every year from overuse of tanning beds. The answer is: absolutely yes! I met a lady, yesterday, at a department store, who sold hair products. She had one bright red eye. Starting a conversation I found out that she had both contact lenses melt onto her eyeballs in a tanning bed. She had neither a significant tan, nor was her face reddened, so the session could not have been excessively long. She was able to get one lens off, but the other one was still attached after three days. She did visit an eye doctor after two days, but he apparently was not going to attempt anything jeopardizing her eye. My guess is a chemical reaction of the UV light with the plasticizer in the lens plastic causing it to disintegrate. However, the lens manufacturers could answer this, but they won't for fear of law suits, with such an admission. Yes I do believe it can melt your contact lences. I remember watching a show about it on tv when a girl wore her contact lences into a tanning bed and it melted onto her eye and so she is now forever blind in that eye. But even if I am wrong its better to be safe than sorry and just take out your lences when u use tanning beds. But just to let you know tanning beds are very risky just by using a tanning bed once in your teen years you raise your chances of getting melanoma, the deadlist form of skin cancer, 75% research tanning beds before you decide to use them because what seems like a great idea now you might seriously regret later on in life.

What happens to white light when you are looking at a red strawberry?

White is not a color, it is all the colors. So when you look at something red, all colors but red are being absorbed and red is reflected. If it was black, then all colors would be absorbed. If it's white, then no colors are being absorbed..
