    Looking to get the above treatment for Friday. Can anyone recommend anywhere that I could book into on short notice? One that is good (non-umpa lumpa) and not too expensive? Also would they have an issue with giving treatments for a guy?

    ah right, but surely with this lovely wheather a few days outside with the baby oil would do the trick?

    And ... no thanks ;)

    Well premature aging effects of the sun aside unfortunately your suggestion isn't for me. I have medium skin and would be red for too long after being in the sun. It would take me about a week to go brown.

    Has anyone ever used the tanning shop? What is their treatment like?

    If you have never done this before, I think that you should give it a miss. You're not sure of the outcome and then you're gonna be stuck with it for you photo shoot. I'd give it a miss if I were you..... we all know what happened to Ross on Friends!

    This is perhaps true. Luckily my life is not s sitcom.

    If I were to get it done - which at this stage I mightn't - has anyone used the tanning shop?

    Are U in Dublin?
    If u are I reccomend Blow on Leeson street
    Get the spray tan and ask them to do lightly and you should be grand.
    Wear a pair of y-fronts that you dont mind getting dirty or if you have a thong (though no guy should EVER have this in his wardrobe:) )then wear that instead.

    OOHHH a model on Boards.Whats the photoshoot for??

    Wouldn't Assets be a good place to ask for a recommendation? I'm sure their lads would know of the best place.

    Actually - you might be better off to get it done on Thursday. Tan can be quite orange especially in photographs for a few days.

    RAAAAWRRR!!!!!! To be honest, Stephanos. Try melanotan II. It's what a lot of the pro bodybuilders use to help tan. Only problem is you have to inject it.

    Does anyone know where you can get this melanotan II treatment? Are there any side-effects? I heard it has not been given the all clear by the FDA yet!
