you crazy, girl! Orange hair and a red face--nothing a little white rum won't cure. Tanning-- ya gotta start slow and build up-- 6 minutes every other day at most! The only time I have have ever used a tanning machine is pre-jamaica so I don't burn there or stand out as glaring white but I would never go in a machine twice in one day and wouldn't get to 12 mins till week 3. Blonde highlights? You are brunette, right? I am so confused but good for you for starting your adventure in style. Hope you can give us some pics and reports on-island.
