Re: Sunburnification

I'm excruciatingly white, with thin light blonde hair as well, and am light enough to have been dubbed "Albino Jesus" before in my days with longer hair. I burn extremely quickly, faster than just about anyone else in my family or that I know.

To make matters worse, I live in Arizona. I can start burning here in March usually, and will continue to be able to all the way through September (I already got a slight burn about mid-march of this year walking 3 miles one morning). On particularly bad days in the summer I've burned simply from walking to a friend's house who lives only 4 blocks away.

Band camp in August is great too. About a gallon of water per person, hats, as much outside time in the evening as possible, and SPF 40 for everyone (that 5 and 10 tanning is stuff is like shielding something from bullets with a piece of paper).
