Thanks Lisa! 😀 I remember well as a newbie PhD - was enthralled and inspired by your Kellogg's talk!

No way, that's my whole chapter 2! You would have been the perfect person to interview, which I really struggled to find at the time when looking at the 'fitness, health, sunbed' industry. Thanks for sharing! 😀

Oooo, thank you. Huge fan of your research, btw, especially your podcast (Henry Ford is my fave so far as I'm biased to business history)! 😂

🫣 How does tanning culture speak to class, gender, race, sexuality and age-bound stigma?

📈 Were the public health campaigns effective?

💉 Finally, when reflecting on the past, what’s the future of tanning (and marketing) technologies?

Some of the questions it answers are:

🌧️ Why are sunbeds more prevalent in North(-West) Britain?

🚭 Is the sunbed industry similar to the tobacco, nicotine and alcohol industry?

🔥 Can you trust the sunbed industry’s ‘skin’ and ‘health-enhancement’ campaigns?
