Is there a noticable difference between a suntan and a tanning bed tan?

A reader has this question…

I’m pretty pale right now, and i’m in need of a tan. I think tanning in the sun is too time consuming and difficult so I want to go to a tanning bed.

If I went to the tanning bed maybe twice a week for 1-2 weeks..and then stopped and just stayed out in the sun more often. Could people notice it’s a tanning bed tan and not a real sun tan?

I heard if you tan to much in a tanning bed, you’ll get orange-ish, unless I’m wrong? What color do people normally get in a tanning bed and from the sun?

What do you recommend I do? like how many times should I do it? I just want some color, I don’t want to be dark.

Thanks.
