Total body sunburns

[tothebeach08]

i looked in the mirror and i can't SEE a sunburn on my scalp but when i raise my eyebrows or touch my head...it HURTS really bad

You must be a fellow blond and you know if it is burned it's not going to tan up there it is going to peel and then your going to have these little skin flakes. It looks like you'll be rockin the headband this week. There are some really cute headbands around now, I have a ton of them. Seems like we will both have a painful recovery week. In the meantime, the only solution is to get drunk and post here for our entertainment.

I think you need some virtual aloe:

I remember this happening to me as a kid and it really, really sucked. Anymore I rarely spend more than an hour or two in the direct sun on any given day.

I bathe in aloe Vera for an entire week if I attend a day game without sunscreen, nevertheless I always begin to peel within a week. It always looks worse than it actually feels though. Try going to 3 different classes each day and have people make some lame joke in each one. I developed my own 'sunburned look' to give in order to explain exactly how I feel in a fraction of a second. Unfortunately the guys don't read body language well, and I end up having to re-explain my story half the time.

Is it one of nature's great ironies that an extract that gently smoothes and moisturizes skin comes from a plant I wouldn't want to be within five feet of? Look at the sharp points on that thing!
