Every service I have had with Noelle and Bianca have been wonderful! They offer a variety of techniques to customize your experience. They are real, experienced women who always make you feel welcome and the Glow Up is a space where you belong. I always recommend them to all my friends.

First time here and I can’t recommend Bianca enough! I live over in Stillwater, but will be driving to Minneapolis for the spray tan with her now. I have had the same two people with excellent reviews do my tan over on the other side of town but the tan I just got with her far surpassed any of them!! Perfect color, looks great after two days …everywhere, amazing price, and very fast!! I will be back and bring all my friends :)

I love The Glow Up so much!! Been going to them for years and they always get me right I recommend them to anyone that’s looking for a good glowy tan especially during those dry and dull Minnesota winters.
