Q: my daughter, fair skin 15 yrs old- wants to go to tanning bed- A good choice? or poor choice?
It's a horrible choice no matter what the skin type or age.
If you search Health Central's Skin Cancer site you will find a lot of information on tannings beds, all indicate how hazardous they are.
Here is one such article by Merely Me, A writer for this and the Skin Cancer site, called, Tanning Bed Myths. Also,
Personal Stories of Tanning Bed Users Diagnosed With Melanoma. I hope she reconsiders. Good luck.
