Government officials and salons owners should work together and not against each other because along with certain risks there are many benefits!

When you burn...is when the problems arise. I do not feel that indoor tanning is anything like drinking alcohol or smoking cigarettes. I also feel that the media is very misleading to the public about indoor tanning. I think if someone is going to bash a service...they should do more homework.

That makes no sense what so ever. Teenagers are going to lay out in the sun and burn to get a simple tan when they can go tanning in a highly regulated timed bed.

It's time to start doing the right things for the right reasons. A 17 year old child can get very dangerous medications without parental consent that are far more dangerous than using a tanning bed as well a report by a well know scientist shows teenagers are more likely to die from riding a bike, swimming, car accidents and falling down than from skin cancer. It makes no sense to take this decision away from parents. Who is the Government to make these decisions, yet allow these same teenagers to take birth control which are on the same cancer causing schedule as tanning beds - it's obviously not a decision to protect teens as more teenagers are at risk from birth control yet there is no push to ban these dangerous medications - is it because the big pharmacies have power of our Government with thier deep pockets ??? Sad. You say you want to protect teenagers - you will save more lives from banning birth control ... so why don't the Government push for that ??? Another scientist declares more teenagers will suffer deaths from low vitamin d from too little sun tanning

Is it coincidence that the 'skin cancer' rate has risen in step with sunscreen sales over the past 30 years?

You can't regulate stupid and that's what happens when people of all ages stay in the sun too long, they burn. This is seen to be a causation but not the only issue in skin cancer. Red hair, green eyes, and numerous moles and freckles raise the chances astronomically, while those that can get a 'tan' have much lower rates than those that do not.

Coming to a professional establishment and tanning under the guidance of educated, certified salon workers is so much safer than tanning outdoors!
