Eye Color: Gray/Blue – 1.46; Green – 1.52; Hazel – 1.24; Brown – 1

Freckles: Many – 1.90

Ever Used Indoor Tanning: 1.74

Burns from Indoor Tanning: 2.28

Note: You should never burn from indoor tanning. In this study 22% of the cases reported burning in a tanning bed and 14% of the controls. 1 in 5 people burned tanning indoors? This is questionable.
