Couple risk health and resources on being brown

Chantelle Jones and her beloved Graham Thomas are self-confessed tanorexics
who revisit a salon adult to 6 times a week together — costing a startling
£100 a month.

The 22-year-old beautician says a dual of them are dependant to being brown
and get a genuine “buzz” from being tanned.

But a hum wasn’t adequate to prove a couple’s needs.

Willing to go to any lengths to prove their bronze cravings, a span inject
themselves with bootleg drug Melanotan.

Ordered off a internet and nicknamed “the Barbie drug” a injections
stimulate melanin, a skin colouring that causes we to go brown.

The dangerous drug is not protected in a UK and is bootleg to supply and the
couple have gifted a prolonged list of side-effects.

But Chantelle, from a Wirral, Merseyside, says she is so dependant to being
brown she doesn’t caring about a compared health problems — or the
financial implications.

She says: “I’ve had stomach heedfulness from injecting a drug into my tummy, felt
sick and had headaches though we consider my physique contingency be removing used to it as
these are reduction visit now.

“It does cost us a happening — since of a volume we spend on sunbeds and
injections we can’t means a summer holiday this year.”

They initial started regulating a drug 5 months ago. Chantelle says: “It helps
you go darker quicker and get a some-more even tan.

“The stomach heedfulness and other side-effects do cranky my mind though we still like
taking it so we lift on. we usually adore being tanned.”

Also happy to put his looks before his health, Chantelle’s beloved Graham,
23, believes they both demeanour improved when they’re browner.

The construction site workman says: “We both demeanour most hotter with a good
tan. Pale people demeanour ill though any colour to them.

“When we demeanour behind during cinema of myself before we started regulating sunbeds we look
horrible.”

But he added: “I’ve had bad headaches that can final adult to dual hours and get
really drunken after injecting it. Once it lasted 24 hours and we couldn’t go
football training, though we usually rode it out.”

As good as a terrible side-effects from a drug, a integrate also have
worrying early signs of skin cancer from their continued use of sunbeds.

Chantelle says: “I’ve started to get freckles on my arms that weren’t there
before, though we pull any worries we have to a behind of my mind.”

Graham, who has beheld a mole flourishing on his cheek, is equally as naïve about
the risks of skin cancer. He says: “The mole looks like a beauty spot, it’s
not unattractive, so we don’t worry about it. we don’t let cancer worry me.”

Chantelle’s mania started when she was usually 13 and she began experimenting
with feign tans during home. Enjoying how she looked with a darker complexion,
she had her initial sunbed event during 14.

She explains: “I started going to tanning salons with my friends. We had to
lie about a age to get in though we never got questioned and we desired the
colour we went after a five-minute session.

“I used my slot income to compensate for it each week. It cost £3.50 a time and I
always looked brazen to a weekend to get another one.”

Enjoying a comments on how brownish-red she looked from friends, even Chantelle’s
mum pronounced her daughter looked healthier with a brownish-red glow. By a time she
was 18, Chantelle was visiting a salon 4 times a week. She says: “By
this indicate we was totally addicted.

“I’d listened of skin cancer and seen a warnings though we usually put it all to the
back of my mind.”

A year later, aged 19, Chantelle met associate tanner Graham on a night out in
Liverpool, and her mettle was one of a things Graham favourite about her.

He says: “I consider she looks good with a darker colour and we know she likes my
tan too as it creates my muscles demeanour some-more defined.”

Once a span started a attribute they embraced their corner adore of
bronzing by formulation nightly trips to a salon together.

She says: “We used sunbeds about 6 times a week for 12 mins a time,
which sounds a lot though we were used to it so we never burnt.”

But, wanting to be as dim as possible, when Graham listened about Melanotan at
his internal gym, he jumped online to find out more.

Reading that it can boost tanning and say dim pigmentation for
longer, he showed Chantelle a video of an Australian alloy who prescribed
it to patients.

Feeling it contingency be safe, they found an online stockist and systematic a month’s
supply for £70.

Admitting she was shaken when she hold a needle for a initial time,
Chantelle says she shortly got over her fears.

She says: “I was frightened during initial as I’d never injected myself with anything
before and had to hang a needle into a fat in my tummy, though we get
used to it and it doesn’t harm or leave any marks.

“After my initial sip we had unpleasant stomach aches for dual hours and we worried
when we started to feel sick, though it wore off and now we frequency get them at
all.

“It usually took about 6 days for me to notice a difference.

“When we used a sunbed my colour was a lot richer and lasted most longer, so I
knew it was value it.”

Graham has also gifted impassioned passionate arousal true after regulating the
Melanotan.

He explains: “It’s a side-effect that doesn’t strike everybody though infrequently we get
erections for about an hour after I’ve had a drug so we have some-more sex than
we used to.

“We adore being brownish-red so most that a side-effects won’t stop us from using
it in a future.”
