will the injections themselves make you tan or are they basically just tan boosters/accelerators ?

Great question Sammy, welcome to the forum* 8)
The melanotan 2 injection itself will not tan a guy like me (skin type 1 would naturally burns in the sun).* However if you have skin type three and can tan without trouble (and you dont have pigmentation concerns) you may get dark via the injection only.
Results tend to be more a pigment change when tanning is not part of the equation
MT-II, synthetic melanocyte stimulating hormone, flips the switch in the cell to produce the dark brown dense melanin.* UV radiation accelerates results.*
Balancing the hormone, the UVR and the individual is the name of the game.* Too much sun and MT-II = foolish appearance.* MT-II and not enough sun = lackluster/wildcard results
If I may paint a brief story/timeline for MT-II usage]Inject MT-II slowly for a few days
freckles and moles darken considerably* =>* add strategic UVR exposure to tan skin that you want darker
friends/family/coworkers will compliment/comment on your tan before you take notice

i would come under skin type 2 or 3 so if i do .5mg every other day and one sunbed session a week do you think that would be a good idea?

Sounds like a solid plan, best of luck!* I would advise injecting low doses every day so in the beginning so that you avoid feeling certain side effects (such as lethargy from taking too much peptide and/or tanning).* desensitize to where you can inject every few days and just some quality sunlight and short sunbed visit (a long sunbed visit once a week would be poor...best to have a couple brief sessions - jmho & advise to those out there who dont ask) should have you on your way to a super tan this winter* 8)
