I just had one of the best experiences of my life at Glow Day Spa. I booked in for a bikini wax and facial, for my first time ever, and it was amazing! The girls there are incredible! I was understandably nervous and everyone made me feel so comfortable and so welcome. Claudia did my wax, which was obviously the more nerve racking one, and she was outstanding. Quick and painless, extremely friendly and supportive. Lindsay gave me my facial, she was so gentle and soothing, to the point I thought I could take a nap! Both ladies were very informative and knowledgeable as well. Every penny was worth the experience I had there today. 11/10 would recommend. I will absolutely go back! I plan on recommending all my friends try it there! Read Less

This has been my first time at Glow and I’m hooked!! I got my eyebrows tinted and waxed by Brooke a couple days ago and she did an amazing job. I am getting constant compliments about how natural they look and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Today I went back for a pedicure and a shellac manicure. Due to my mistake, I accidentally booked my appointment for next week. Without hesitation the wonderful woman at the front desk mentioned that they were all booked up but would try to fit me in as it is my convocation ceremony tomorrow. One of the aestheticians (Kendra) stayed after her shift had ended so that she could do my pedicure, which turned out beautiful. And Orla did my manicure which I love. Overall, this place has very friendly and pleasant staff who do amazing work. I will definitely be coming back. Read Less

I had upper & lower eyes tattoo. This was done May 2015. It was done by by Kimberly. She said, at the time, that since I wear glasses it should last 7-10 years. It is completely unnoticed for a few months now. When I called she told me that she never said that & gave me personal woes of her botox. After a long conversation with her she said she would redo it for $300 (originally over $700) I didn't want someone with her bad attitude putting needles near my eyes. Read Less

Yesterday was my first visit to Glow Day Spa in Barrie. As soon as I entered the spa I was welcomed by two very friendly staff. The spa was extremely organized and clean. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner Kimberly Crook. She took her time to explain to me several of the services that I was interested in. After our consult I decided that I wanted to have princess lash extensions. I'm extremely happy with my lashes! I'm looking forward to my next appointment in a few weeks to have my eyebrows done!

The person themselves and the services provided were above and beyond any cheap nail salon in town. The product itself (nail polish/top coat) is horrible. I get my nails done often and I have never witnessed polish chipping/flaking in the first couple days. I'm leaving for holidays and my finger nails look horrendous! It saddens me that after the great experience and the costly invoice that I'm left wanting to hind my finger nails. I have now taken the time to read through a few reviews and I see this may be a common trend lately. May be looking into another product line might be a good idea. Read Less

I came to this spa some time last year to have my lashes done for the first time ever. I actually loved the look and length of my lashes after leaving my first visit, but as days went by I noticed huge chunks of lashes missing and I was under the impression they were to last 2-3 weeks. I spoke with a friend of mine who does her lashes regularly and she stated that the spa probably doesn't use individual lashes. I called the spa and the receptionist confirmed that they do, so I booked back for a fill thinking I just wasn't caring for my lashes correctly. This was not the case, the same thing happened just days after my fill. It looked so bad I used coconut oil and took them off myself at home. I later discovered the glow does not use inidividual lashes they use what is a called a "fan" at least 4-5 lashes glued together and then applied to yours, which is more damaging to your natural lashes as they are much to heavy for a single lash to carry and clearly look awful as they fall out on their own as you will have noticeable chunks of lashes missing. If you're looking for lashes for a weekend or special event glow is definitely the place for you! As I said, they do look great at first, there is just no longevity to them. I am leaving this review now as I have recently found a very informative lash tech who shows you everything she uses, explains everything in detail etc. and her lashes have lasted me ages before requiring fills. Had I not have found her I wouldn't have known better. Best to do your research/ask questions before booking! Read Less

I received a pedicure from lacey last Monday and words can not describe how happy I am with the results. I asked for a french manicure and she went above and beyond when delivering this... she not only had an extremely steady hand producing flawless work, but she insured there were several coats of Glow Day Spa's "bubble bath" polish underneath so they look STUNNING!! I've always had mangled looking feet thanks to my athletic background, but lacy took her time and made sure she scrubbed and creamed every inch not to mention her massage at the end that left me drooling!!

this review was hard to rate because i like the actual spa itself. and the staff are really friendly. and the eyelash extensions have always been on point.. however with a "mix up" its left me feeling a little tricked.they recently brought in a dr who does injections. there was a promo first 40 people got injections for 7.99 instead of the normal price of 10$. i booked my appointment and asked a few times if it would be the 7.99 and how would i know if by the time i get to my appointment itd be over 40 people. i was told i was under the 40 people and would forsure get the deal. when i arrived the dr went over how many injections and price. i wasnt even thinking that the price she gave me didnt add up if they were 7.99 so i said thats affordable and away we went. i was never told it wasnt promo pricing anymore.today i looked at my bank statement to see i was charged and it seemed a bit high, so i called back to tell them i was actually over charged to be told i didnt get the promo price because i wasnt within the 40 first people.. first i found it a little hard to believe that 40 people have already booked and seen her within a few days but then i started to feel a bit upset that i drove from mississauga when i couldve gone anywhere because most dr's charge 10$, i thought i was getting a deal and if i liked her and it looked good . i could've gone back. when i called she only gave me a 25$ credit which is nothing compared to being over charged over 60$ and 25$ is 2 units of botox which is nothing! wont even show. so im supposed to be returning to glow day spa for my lashes with my sister before she leaves for cuba next week but i cant even use that credit towards them because the dr is her own show out of that spa.. a bit disappointed. she was nice but i dont like feeling tricked. it was never said that it was 10$ a unit or i wouldve noticed and mentioned the promo price i was told. i was told the price it would be for 25 units and i didnt figure out the math in my head that i was being charged 10 not 7....  disappointing to say the least. i didnt think this spa ran that way and i really used to like going there.. atmopsphere there is still great and the reception was really helpful and did the most they could on their end..mix up's happen but hopefully it wasnt just a trick to get people in..

I have gone to GLOW Spa before and enjoyed their Green Science Facial. Pedicure and manicures were ok.  The manicure station is very hard to get in and out of.Recently I decided to go in for the "works" waxing, manicure pedicure and facial.Waxing  - was fine.Manicure - Very uncomfortable station.  Every single person who came in (including staff) struggled with the chairs.  My manicure was okay - definately not worthy of the extra cost for the upgraded one - simply just parrifin wax.  I noticed while getting my pedicure my nails were bumpy (I had gotten shellac) when I showed the girl (I had thought it was wax) she seemed surprised and helped me try to wipe it off.  Eventually they peeled,  I showed her (no apology) and simply asked "do you want me to redo them?" Well - yes.  She said "I THINK I can do it." Right there at that moment they lost my business forever.  She was a nice girl but truly didn't seem to value the work she did, I would have been moritifed if I was her.  As I was getting them redone she kept sayng she didn't trust the "curing" machines and her collegue next to me said (like I knew nothing about shellac) that perhaps it was the oil in my nails.  I have been getting shellac (at many spas - around the world even!) for years I have NEVER had a problem.  I remained zen.  She then recommended to her colleague to try another machine as there has been trouble with other ones. Finally - about 30 min later it was fixed.Pedicure - ok.  Again not worth the extra cost for the special one.Facial - ok.  I have had it better there.  Worst part was I booked 90 minutes they did less than an 1 hour.  This is where the service just blew my mind.  I went up to the counter to check out and ensure I wasn't charged for the 90 minutes or the extra shellac.  The lady at the front desk was clearly not happy I was questioning anything.  When I explained the mistake they had made with my nails - no sorry, or apologies - she just said - we only charged you once.  Good service wouldn't have charged me anything but whatever I am not going to argue as long as it was fixed.  I then mentioned the 60 min facial (in face it was less than 60 min) verus 90 minutes.  The lady who did my facial was standing there and said "Oh, my bad.  People don't nomrally ask for 90 minutes so I didn't notice" That was it.  No sorry.  No accountability - clearly MY fault for asking for something that not a lot of people ask for.  The front desk clerk continued to be unimpressed.  I paid and got the heck out.  Never to return!Sad. It has potential.  But overpriced and staff (for the most part) aren't that qualified to ask for those prices.  And frankly even if they were, their service skills are subpar.  I see it in a lot of spas, who think they are cooler than the city they are in.  When the places that are actually cool - take BD North - are cool b/c they are about customer service and work with their team to always improve their skills.  Fingers crossed they open a spa portion soon! But there are other GREAT places around Barrie -that have GREAT service. Read Less

Glow smells nice, looks and feels very clean, and everyone seems to know what they're doing. They are kind enough to offer refreshments and sandals, and magazines (that are not outdated) as well which are nice added touches, and the over the counter products that they sell arn't so bad either (which says a lot about a place). I go there for waxing mostly but i have had other things done as well. Having extremely sensitive skin, I've tried so many different ways or removing hair and been to so many different places to find the right person and cleanest spa I can. I think this is the one in Barrie.Recommendations: make sure staff is awake before they begin working (had a sleepy pedicure once that wasn't worth the price), and on that note, maybe make a booking for after 10:30!

I just had one of the best experiences of my life at Glow Day Spa. I booked in for a bikini wax and facial, for my first time ever, and it was amazing! The girls there are incredible! I was understandably nervous and everyone made me feel so comfortable and so welcome. Claudia did my wax, which was obviously the more nerve racking one, and she was outstanding. Quick and painless, extremely friendly and supportive. Lindsay gave me my facial, she was so gentle and soothing, to the point I thought I could take a nap! Both ladies were very informative and knowledgeable as well. Every penny was worth the experience I had there today. 11/10 would recommend. I will absolutely go back! I plan on recommending all my friends try it there! Read Less

This has been my first time at Glow and I’m hooked!! I got my eyebrows tinted and waxed by Brooke a couple days ago and she did an amazing job. I am getting constant compliments about how natural they look and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Today I went back for a pedicure and a shellac manicure. Due to my mistake, I accidentally booked my appointment for next week. Without hesitation the wonderful woman at the front desk mentioned that they were all booked up but would try to fit me in as it is my convocation ceremony tomorrow. One of the aestheticians (Kendra) stayed after her shift had ended so that she could do my pedicure, which turned out beautiful. And Orla did my manicure which I love. Overall, this place has very friendly and pleasant staff who do amazing work. I will definitely be coming back. Read Less

I had upper & lower eyes tattoo. This was done May 2015. It was done by by Kimberly. She said, at the time, that since I wear glasses it should last 7-10 years. It is completely unnoticed for a few months now. When I called she told me that she never said that & gave me personal woes of her botox.

I came to this spa some time last year to have my lashes done for the first time ever. I actually loved the look and length of my lashes after leaving my first visit, but as days went by I noticed huge chunks of lashes missing and I was under the impression they were to last 2-3 weeks. I spoke with a friend of mine who does her lashes regularly and she stated that the spa probably doesn't use individual lashes. I called the spa and the receptionist confirmed that they do, so I booked back for a fill thinking I just wasn't caring for my lashes correctly. This was not the case, the same thing happened just days after my fill. It looked so bad I used coconut oil and took them off myself at home. I later discovered the glow does not use inidividual lashes they use what is a called a "fan" at least 4-5 lashes glued together and then applied to yours, which is more damaging to your natural lashes as they are much to heavy for a single lash to carry and clearly look awful as they fall out on their own as you will have noticeable chunks of lashes missing. If you're looking for lashes for a weekend or special event glow is definitely the place for you! As I said, they do look great at first, there is just no longevity to them. I am leaving this review now as I have recently found a very informative lash tech who shows you everything she uses, explains everything in detail etc. and her lashes have lasted me ages before requiring fills. Had I not have found her I wouldn't have known better. Best to do your research/ask questions before booking! Read Less

this review was hard to rate because i like the actual spa itself. and the staff are really friendly. and the eyelash extensions have always been on point.. however with a "mix up" its left me feeling a little tricked.they recently brought in a dr who does injections. there was a promo first 40 people got injections for 7.99 instead of the normal price of 10$. i booked my appointment and asked a few times if it would be the 7.99 and how would i know if by the time i get to my appointment itd be over 40 people. i was told i was under the 40 people and would forsure get the deal. when i arrived the dr went over how many injections and price. i wasnt even thinking that the price she gave me didnt add up if they were 7.99 so i said thats affordable and away we went. i was never told it wasnt promo pricing anymore.today i looked at my bank statement to see i was charged and it seemed a bit high, so i called back to tell them i was actually over charged to be told i didnt get the promo price because i wasnt within the 40 first people.. first i found it a little hard to believe that 40 people have already booked and seen her within a few days but then i started to feel a bit upset that i drove from mississauga when i couldve gone anywhere because most dr's charge 10$, i thought i was getting a deal and if i liked her and it looked good . i could've gone back. when i called she only gave me a 25$ credit which is nothing compared to being over charged over 60$ and 25$ is 2 units of botox which is nothing! wont even show. so im supposed to be returning to glow day spa for my lashes with my sister before she leaves for cuba next week but i cant even use that credit towards them because the dr is her own show out of that spa.. a bit disappointed. she was nice but i dont like feeling tricked. it was never said that it was 10$ a unit or i wouldve noticed and mentioned the promo price i was told. i was told the price it would be for 25 units and i didnt figure out the math in my head that i was being charged 10 not 7....  disappointing to say the least. i didnt think this spa ran that way and i really used to like going there.. atmopsphere there is still great and the reception was really helpful and did the most they could on their end..mix up's happen but hopefully it wasnt just a trick to get people in..

I have gone to GLOW Spa before and enjoyed their Green Science Facial. Pedicure and manicures were ok.  The manicure station is very hard to get in and out of.Recently I decided to go in for the "works" waxing, manicure pedicure and facial.Waxing  - was fine.Manicure - Very uncomfortable station.  Every single person who came in (including staff) struggled with the chairs.  My manicure was okay - definately not worthy of the extra cost for the upgraded one - simply just parrifin wax.  I noticed while getting my pedicure my nails were bumpy (I had gotten shellac) when I showed the girl (I had thought it was wax) she seemed surprised and helped me try to wipe it off.  Eventually they peeled,  I showed her (no apology) and simply asked "do you want me to redo them?" Well - yes.  She said "I THINK I can do it." Right there at that moment they lost my business forever.  She was a nice girl but truly didn't seem to value the work she did, I would have been moritifed if I was her.  As I was getting them redone she kept sayng she didn't trust the "curing" machines and her collegue next to me said (like I knew nothing about shellac) that perhaps it was the oil in my nails.  I have been getting shellac (at many spas - around the world even!) for years I have NEVER had a problem.  I remained zen.  She then recommended to her colleague to try another machine as there has been trouble with other ones. Finally - about 30 min later it was fixed.Pedicure - ok.  Again not worth the extra cost for the special one.Facial - ok.  I have had it better there.  Worst part was I booked 90 minutes they did less than an 1 hour.  This is where the service just blew my mind.  I went up to the counter to check out and ensure I wasn't charged for the 90 minutes or the extra shellac.  The lady at the front desk was clearly not happy I was questioning anything.  When I explained the mistake they had made with my nails - no sorry, or apologies - she just said - we only charged you once.  Good service wouldn't have charged me anything but whatever I am not going to argue as long as it was fixed.  I then mentioned the 60 min facial (in face it was less than 60 min) verus 90 minutes.  The lady who did my facial was standing there and said "Oh, my bad.  People don't nomrally ask for 90 minutes so I didn't notice" That was it.  No sorry.  No accountability - clearly MY fault for asking for something that not a lot of people ask for.  The front desk clerk continued to be unimpressed.  I paid and got the heck out.  Never to return!Sad. It has potential.  But overpriced and staff (for the most part) aren't that qualified to ask for those prices.  And frankly even if they were, their service skills are subpar.  I see it in a lot of spas, who think they are cooler than the city they are in.  When the places that are actually cool - take BD North - are cool b/c they are about customer service and work with their team to always improve their skills.  Fingers crossed they open a spa portion soon! But there are other GREAT places around Barrie -that have GREAT service. Read Less

Glow smells nice, looks and feels very clean, and everyone seems to know what they're doing. They are kind enough to offer refreshments and sandals, and magazines (that are not outdated) as well which are nice added touches, and the over the counter products that they sell arn't so bad either (which says a lot about a place). I go there for waxing mostly but i have had other things done as well. Having extremely sensitive skin, I've tried so many different ways or removing hair and been to so many different places to find the right person and cleanest spa I can. I think this is the one in Barrie.Recommendations: make sure staff is awake before they begin working (had a sleepy pedicure once that wasn't worth the price), and on that note, maybe make a booking for after 10:30!
