How to Tan Underarms in a Tanning Bed
A tanning bed provides a quick, easy, natural looking tan to a man or woman's body. The bed nearly triples your tanning time with the extra strong rays it provides. Unfortunately, since it is difficult to move around in a tanning bed, it is hard to tan every angle and crevice of the body, in particular the underarms. It is easy to change this by alternating your movements within the tanning bed throughout the session. Does this Spark an idea?

Turn on the tanning bed and lay down inside as you usually would. For the first minute, keep your arms next to your sides in the tanning bed.

2
Raise your arms above your head at the second minute, so they are laying parallel to your face. Your underarms will be exposed to the tanning lamp bulbs, helping them get a little more of a tan color.

Lower your arms two minutes after you raised them, back to your sides. Alternating in this manner will help create a more even tan on the arms, but still provide a little color to the underarms. The underarms are not supposed to be very tan, as that does not appear natural, so you want them to have just a hint of color.

Raise your arms parallel to your face again, two minutes after you lowered them. Repeat this procedure every two minutes until your tanning time is up.

Tips & Warnings
If desired, use tanning oil only on your underarms.
The underarms area is very sensitive to sun, so if you feel they are starting to burn keep them lowered the rest of the tanning bed time.
