How many days to get a great tan?
I have fair skin and I tanned two days for nearly 2 hours a day. The sun isn't THAT strong as usual, cause I live in Dubai and its usually really hot, like torture. But now since the weather is ok I tanned but it doesn't seem to show that much. Its my first time to do it. Now I have like really light golden tan and my cheeks seem a bit red. How many days more do I need? I wanna get a bronze color, and I'm using Nivea tanning oil.

With me it takes about two weeks, assuming I can get out there every other day. I can't stay out for more than a couple of hours or I risk frying my skin (as well as my brain).

It's different for different people. Used to take me about a week to get a good tan. You REALLY REALLY shouldn't tan though. It's very damaging to skin. You won't see the damage now but you definitely will later in life. I'm sure you don't want bad skin when you're older? And since you live in Dubai you should be extra careful. High factor sunscreen should be applied liberally every day!

everyone is different
if i were in sun for 4 hours i would be a deep golden colour
and i am white (and live in scotland)
tanning for 2 hours per day is only going to give you a very short lived tan and years of problems
