Heeeeeyy!!! Be nice! *Strokes O-Town poster*
I think no one under age 21 should be allowed to use tanning beds. I asked my doctor about them and he said the majority (not all) of skin damage is done before age 21. And I'm sure there's a bunch of different statistics as far as ages go. But I think we can all agree that a 14 year old having the skin of someone almost double her age...not healthy.
I embrace my odd skin colouration (hurrah for being orange!) I've noticed a lot of blue contacts, blonde dye jobs and fake tans around my old high school. I think it's girls striving to be Barbie, subconciously. It's weird. I get told I look unhealthy for being paler...since when is being white unhealthy? And why is putting vanity over health so popular.
