3 Shades Darker Tan

My goal for tanning was to get as dark as I could get. I did achieve this with all these tips from this site. But one thing I learned from tanning was when I got as dark as my skin would let me, I took a week or so off to kinda let my skin breath. And then when I went back to the salon and slapped on some tanning lotion, I came out almost 3 shades darker.
I dont know what my skin did but I think it was used to being that dark and by going back after a break it just bursted into a tan.
So if you are worried that you took a little time off, don't worry because your skin will reward you with a trip to the salon and proper tanning.
