Can I Tan for 2 Hours?

Published in Sun Safety 1 min read

Whether you can tan for 2 hours depends on your skin type and how much sun protection you are using. Generally, fair-skinned individuals (Type I) should limit their sun exposure to 15-30 minutes, while those with darker skin tones (Type VI) can safely tan for up to 120 minutes.

Always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to protect against harmful UV rays.

Remember:

  • Tanning too long can lead to sunburn and other skin damage.
  • Reapply sunscreen every 2 hours, even on cloudy days.
  • Avoid sunbathing during peak hours (10 am to 4 pm).
