What's a good tanning regimen if you're pretty pale and want a dark complexion ? Also if you want to maintain how long/week should you go for ?

No one wants to be white anymore? Good for you...

Would the IFBB allow a competitor to show up in blackface?

if you are using a tanning bed go for 10-12 minutes every 3 days. after about a month you will hold a good tan as long as you continue to go.

any amount of exposure to the sun or to a tanning bed that causes the skin to turn red is doing long term damage. you want the skin to develop melonin without damaging the lower cells. short exposures are the key. start with 2-3 minutes a day in the stand-up tanning booths for a few weeks before working your way up to 4-5 minutes a day.

Tim is right, shorter is better, key is not to burn. If your fair to begin with, take it slow.
Stand ups are better eventually work your way to full time. If there is an event or something of that nature i reccomend getting airbrushed. It is very accurate and looks best after 1st shower. Its not like a mistic and smell or get everywhere. Aitbrush is fast and clean.

I'm black as hell right now. I have been spending about 3 to 5 hours in my pool about 3 or 4 days a weeks. The weather has been unreal. I'm in my pool by 8:30am and usually out around 1pm or so. I take my laptop and work while getting dark, watching the boats and parasailers going by. Once in awhile the dolphins will be jumping right in front of my pool.

My arms have been out in the sun for years and although still white it contrasts from the rest of my body which is pale white. When I start the tanning process I get a nice tan going but I lose if within and few months if I don't continue and become pale white again. I've learned to embrace my natural color now and just get airbrushed if I want to look tan. It is much safer than that damn sun or tanning beds which are just bad for you bottom line. How can you get rid of that color from your arms? Wearing long sleeves and going to Alaska? The arms are just like slightly tan but does not correspond with the rest of body which is not. So in essence I want to match again. I guess I need to put sunscreen on but I was wondering if anybody new of any creams with promote this.

Thats true. I'd much rather be tan and fat than white and fat. I just look like a fat local Hawaiian who just fishes all day, dives and body surfs. So I fit in good here ;D ;D
