More then likely if you are suffering from an itchy rash-like symptom in certain areas (elbows, shoulderbones, tail bones, etc.) then it is due to your pressure points. The pressure points are usually the parts of your body that are touching the bed causing the blood flow and melanin production to be reduced. A lot of times this will cause uneven tanning and will itch like crazy! If you must tan, try a stand up!
Oh My I was starting to think I caught chicken poxs or something from the tanning bed becuase I got it on my chest and tummy and thats all. But my stomach didnt touch the bed. And I didnt use any tanning lotion today either. Im going to tell the manager about it in the morning becuase I really think this is something that needs to be made aware. Especially with this being in the summer months and alot of military wives around here are going to the beds for our husbands when they come home and a pick me up from the gloomy winters :oops:

I get a hive like rash on the small of my back right above my butt crack after every time I tan! It hurts and itches and is really annoying and I don't know what it is, it goes away the next day after I tan, but comes back every time, does anyone know what it is? and how to make it stop.
