How long should I stay in the sun for a tan?

Hi. I have quite a tan on my arms but my legs are pretty pale because I’ve never liked wearing shorts/skirts to show my legs from being self-concious. Now I’m getting more used to wearing shorts and have more confidence in my legs. The problem is that I’m worried it looks a bit weird: with tanned arms and pale legs.

How long should I stay in the sun for to get a tan on my legs? Please no hateful comments!

Answer #1

Ok Thanks for the answers =) I’m never gonna use a sunbed anyway and I’ll use some sunscreen while I’m out in the sun

Answer #2

You should never stay in the sun without sunscreen…I have to advise against sun tanning and, instead, promote a self-tanner.

Answer #3

ok first if you get a fake tan get a spray tan but not dark so get a shade that won’t make you look orange and you can ask the person too. don’t go to a tanning bed. those are bad for you, people get in there undressed with little on, and I think they are gross! if you don’t want a fake tan then spend like 20 to 30 minutes in the sun every day. if you go out more use sunscreen! if you do this every day, you will notice the difference after a week or two. if you go out more without sunscreen, you can get burned and peel which would be bad and embarrassing and you could get acne.
