Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Total Tanning (But Were Afraid to Ask)George Hamilton used to be a famous figure in Hollywood in the 1960's and 1970's. He made a bunch of unforgettable films and equally unforgettable prime time television series, none of which I can remember the names of. Anyway, he was a lot more famous for something other than his acting. It was his tan! George Hamilton was known as "the tannest man in Hollywood". The king of total tanning. He would brag on whatever talk show would pay him that "he had a tan everywhere". Now "everywhere" is a subjective term and depending on your imagination it can cover a lot of territory. Personally I don't really want to know "where" so I'll take him at his word. But what good 'ol George was eschewing was the benefits of "total tanning". And this was a long time before total tanning or any tanning for that matter was in vogue.
Which brings us to the present. Full-figured models have made a come back! So all you pale skinned, emaciated, flat breasted, thin lipped fashion icons of five or ten years ago please step to the rear of the line. Thanks to the latest generation of mega-models, tanned skin is back in. Thanks to dresses with no backs and even less fronts, everything is in full view. Total tanning is where it's at now, baby! Total tanning takes so forethought and some effort if you're going to reach those "hard to reach" places. And you know what they are, so there's no sense in me repeating them! So let's make a total tanning review and take a short walk through all the total tanning methods.
There are two major ways of getting total tanning: indoors and outdoors. These two total tanning methods are competing among themselves. The indoor tanning industry has grown so much that now people are not very sure which one is better and safer. Of course, nothing can substitute for real sunshine. Sunshine is the most powerful natural antidepressant there is. Plus, a fresh air "high" makes your body healthier. Sun rays (if used correctly) may help in curing such diseases as skin cancer and fungal diseases or rash.
The most popular outdoor tanning method is a nude tanning. With nude tanning you will not get tan lines, a problem that many people complain about. Besides, it is useful for your health to let the "hidden" parts of your body feel the sunshine. For men it's important to keep your testicles at room temperature; for women air drying of some "intimate parts" prevents from some infections.
I don't know if George Hamilton was privy to these total tanning methods, but considering his Hollywood residence had a 12 foot surrounding wall, I wouldn't doubt that George was lying out "in the raw".
Now let's take a look at the indoor tanning and its benefits.
Indoor tanning allows you to get tanned despite any weather and season. Indoor tanning salons are working all year round and the "weather" there is always suitable. Besides, you don't have to worry about the quantity of time. Leave it to professionals working there. This kind of tanning helps you to recognize how your skin reacts to the sun and teaches you how to avoid sunburns. Such way of tanning is very suitable for business people.
How else can we get total tanning? By using mystic tanning. Mystic tanning is based on a person's type of skin, body size and the color the tanner is expecting. The program contains three steps. First - an instructional video that walks the person through the whole process. Second is the process itself. You strip down and walk into a "spray booth". Kind of like a car being painted at a body shop. Step three - in less than 60 seconds you get a uniform and beautiful tan!
Last but not least total tanning solution is a tan towel. This kind of tanning doesn't even force you to leave your house. It is rather new product but of very good quality. The usage of tanning towel is very easy. Simply wrap yourself snugly with the tanning towel and the action begins. No stained palms, orange skin or white elbows. All you have to do to keep your tanning effect is to repeat the procedures once a week.
A total tanning review on the internet might shed more light on this subject. Or ask George Hamilton. He could provide you with a total tanning review far greater than any website.
