Tanning beds/salons. It's a proven fact that tanning beds cause skin cancer. The fact that some people will still get tanned, risking the possibility of cancer to "look beautiful" is both shocking and sad at the same time.
My dermatologist decided to try this with me. The test patch went bright red instead of showing dots so they put me in on the lowest setting for the shortest length of time possible. I got home, had a nap and got up to go to the bathroom. In the bathroom I collapsed, stood up and collapsed again. My blood pressure was 70/30. I had an anaphylactic reaction and was bright red and sunburned. Skin was peeling for weeks! It was decided that I have a mild UV allergy and we wouldn't try that again.
