What's the safest way to get a tan?

Spray tan/self-tanner, without a doubt. Plus it's faster. You just need to go to a tanning salon and ask for a spray tan and they'll spray the color on without you even going near a tanning bed, plus you get an even tan and they know how to do the coloring so you'll look slimmer, too. If you don't want to pay that much, you can buy self-tanning spray or lotion at a drugstore. If you're new to self tanning and you aren't getting it done professionally, I'd get a gradual tanning lotion so you won't look streaky or orange. You put it on every day, and as time goes on your skin gradually gets more tan.

I got a spray tan from the woman who sprays the Cleveland Cavaliers girls and it was $30 and lasts 3-4 weeks and it looks completely natural (not fake AT ALL!) And it is also good for your skin because of the nutrients in the spray. I don't know if you live in Ohio, but if you do it's called Optima Sun Lab...But if you don't live in Ohio, a lot of dermatologists offer the same exact thing.

The safest tan comes from a can! In China, they all love white skin, and don't like their darker skin, strange isn't it, ppl want what they don't have... Model Co. has the best products I find.
