I feel that tanning beds should be held accountable for luring customers in under false pretense (i.e. that it is healthy and safe to tan). I feel this is especially unfair to young girls, who are more likely to fall for these false forms of advertising. I have the scars of multiple biopsies to show what tanning does and the health risk that you take everytime you get into a tanning bed. I will see a dermatologist every 3 months for the rest of my life as a result of being a former tanner. Confidentiality requested.
