I believe there is a question about
catching warts from tanning beds here.
FYI- tanning is bad for the skin and
can weaken your immune system. If you
cover up down there YOU are fine.
Warts are spread by skin cells
sheading. The virus dies after being
outside th body, it needs ahost. The
salon SHOULD wipe down the beds before
a new customer, and tehrefore all your
cells would be gone. IF you could

catch it or spread it to tanning beds,
then you could on toilet seats, and all
my friends and family would have them
which is not the case. If you are
concerned use a stand up stall :-) Hey
keep your chin up and try to avoid the
winter blues... spring is only 2 months
away!!!!

I Would think that all that high
intensity UV light and heat would be a
hard environment for a virus to survive
in outside of the body. You might
invest in a few full spectrum
fluorescent lamps. Walmart sells them
for about $7 each. This might have a
similar effect as the tanning bed
however, the UV rays your body craves
break down from artificial
lighting pretty fast if your more then
a few feet away.

If you insist on using a taning bed,
just wipe it down with a lysol
disinfecting wipe or something..

The tanning salon has a disinfecting
spray that is used befor and after you
tan. If they don't have it ask and
always use it. If you could give it to
others by tanning think of what all you
could have. At a big salon 20 people
use one bed every day if not more. just
tan away.
