It's currently 92 degrees in Scott's Valley. Maybe turn the AC on? It's about 100 degrees in the salon. I have the decision of tanning or not but the poor girl working the counter is melting. OSHA requires that you keep the work place under 87 degrees. I'm not big on yelp reviews but I honestly feel bad for the employees. read more

Glimmer & Glow - Spray Tanning Near Me - Scotts Valley, California

$21 for 9 minutes in the stand-up tanning booth... Other places charge $15. Please update or repair the fans in the tanning booth. It was extremely hot and one fan was not working and the other two were barley blowing air. And there was only one fan outside of the booth. A/C or lowering the A/C in the building would help cool the rooms. It would be great to have a mirror and tissues in the room too please. read more

This review is based on Ashley's customer service. I'm not sure if she's from the SV location or SC. I called yesterday hoping to get an appt for a spray tan since the initial place I scheduled an appt with cancelled on me last minute.. boo!! I called and told Ashley my circumstances and she said she'll need to speak with the owner and call me right back. SHE CALLED ME RIGHT BACK! Y'all have any idea how many businesses would say that and you'll never hear from them again?? A lot! Ashley called me back and accommodated my request -- but unfortunately due to scheduling conflict the proposed time did not work for me but the fact that she tried and went above and beyond was truly impressive! Thank you to the owner who accommodated my request as well. I've booked my appointment for next week and look forward to doing business with you! read more

I went in for a spray tan. I was a first time customer so I was given 50% discount. The tan was beautiful and even. The staff was friendly and helpful and the shop was clean. They also have nice selections of jewelry and novelty gifts at reasonable prices. I highly recommend this place. I'll go back. read more

I used to live smack in the middle of Silicon Valley so there were always so many tanning places to choose from. I was so shocked when I moved to Scotts Valley that they actually had a salon. I have a trip to Jamaica planned at the end of November and the only way I can tan is in a bed/booth. Ashley was the representative who got me all signed up. She's so sweet, so personable and just has that southern charm that warms your heart. Every time I come in she greets me as "Miss Patty". It always puts a smile on my face. Many of the other gals there are so sweet. This one young lady has her cute doggy with her at the salon to greet you once you walk in. She's always got a towel in the room for you and she keeps things running very smoothly while making you feel very comfortable and welcomed. I'm looking forward to getting tan next summer at this salon. Highly recommend. read more

Went for my first spray tan. They did a fabulous job. Made me feel super comfortable and the spray tan looked amazing and lasted about 10 days. Will definitely be coming back. read more

I just finished my unlimited 2 weeks to tan for an upcoming vacation. Mackenzie & Ashley we're so knowledgeable, helpful, friendly and a pleasure to see everyday I went there! Give those girls a raise and be proud they work and represent your business! Clean, nice beds with new bulbs. read more

I have had about four spray tans from here now and have been satisfied every single time. I went to a new person recently and the color was not quite what I wanted at first but that was not the fault of the artist, I just vocalized what I thought I wanted but it was not. The second time I returned, it was the same artist and I told her what I did and did not like and she nailed it! You have to understand that you might not get it right the first time, but the technique is supreme, the tan lasts long and never comes off in a gross way, and the staff is super friendly! I believe my artist was Lauren and she is such a gem! She makes you feel so comfortable when you are naked in front of her and is just so real!! Thank you all! read more

Super nice vibe, really friendly and helpful and awesome service, really good light bulbs as well. thanks!!

I love this place!! Very high quality beds, air brush is silky smooth and flawless. Ashely the front desk lady is incredibly sweet and knowledgeable. The facility is spotless and very welcoming! I always leave glowing with confidence! read more

The place is clean and the people that work there are friendly; however - I started tanning at the beginning of June at 5 mins for session 1. I didn't notice a difference so I jumped to 7 minutes without question or issue for visits 2 & 3 and 8 mins at session 4 & 5. At session 6, they told me they got new bulbs and had to drop me to 5 mins for 2 sessions and then I could go back up to 8 mins. I understood safety and I didn't want to burn so I thought that was fine. After 4 visits and they let me go to 6 min. When I pushed back a little reminding what they told me "2 sessions and then back to 8", she said the owner is watching the time sessions and if the ladies that work there didn't do it 1 mins every other session, they would be in trouble with the owner. At this point, I'm 4 sessions in at the lower time of 5 mins so it's more than every other session and because they dropped me 3 mins and won't let me go back to 8 after 2 sessions as originally stated, my tan is fading. I now have to buy more sessions to eventually get my tan back to where it was a week ago. I overheard someone else complaining and the person at the desk said it was state requirement for new bulbs. That's weird.... I thought it was the owner monitoring the employees. At some point it becomes less about customer care and more about care for their bottom line. read more

Fantastic service & quality beds. Love going in for a quick glow. They have the cutest boutique items too.

I just started going here and I love it! The staff are so nice and friendly. Ashley is one of the staff that works there and she is a southern Belle that makes your experience one of kind. Shes honestly a breath of fresh air. They also have two location which is convenient! read more

I love Glimmer and Glow! I love the staff and the way I look. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I always feel welcome and I come away with a good feeling of health and vitality. The salon is clean and it is very easy to make an appointment. They even call me back right away if they miss my call. My favorite staff member is Ashley. She is on it. Ashley is always positive and upbeat and seems genuinely happy to see me and any other patrons who come through the door. Glimmer and Glow is the bright spot of my day! Oh, and did I mention how great I look? My tan looks marvelous!! read more

Pretty dirty and broken down. They put the cleaning rags right next to your head. The ladder is stored right where anyone can climb up and perv on your tanning session. Many bulbs don't work. The glass on lay down is cracked and covered with clear tape read more

See all

Had a great experience at the salon in Scotts Valley, great staff, love the lay down bed

This tanning salon takes their customers very serious! Staff is very nice and check-in goes fast. I like it that you can reserve your spot online at both locations! Very clean and friendly atmosphere. Beautiful decor! Nice owner! Thanks for trying so hard! read more

I come to Glimmer and Glow for all my spray tan needs. The girls here make me feel so comfortable and I always have great conversations with them! The tan lasts with the lotion I use from them, and the spray does not leave an odor. read more

I did a 30 minute session in the Cocoon Infrared Pod for the very first time ever. Not only was it cheap in price, it was amazing. I've never done a infrared treatment before and I think I may now be hooked. There's a massager built in for the legs and back in which you can control the intensity of it. You also can control the temperature. I was sweaty afterwards but they provide a towel and a bottle of water. This place is very clean and the owner was very nice. I highly recommend trying the Cocoon Infrared Pod here. read more

Glimmer & Glow - This Cocoon Infrared Pod is amazing and I highly recommend trying it - Spray Tanning Near Me - Scotts Valley, California

My good friend brought me here for the first time. I was nervous at first cause I never been tanning but I'm glad I went. The place was clean, the staff was nice and very friendly. They took care of me, making sure I was comfortable for my first time. read more

Thank you Bailey and Zack for being so welcoming and kind... I'll be back, this place is really nice! Staff are fun, warm and friendly!! ... and helpful, I was a bit nervous :) read more

NEVER OPEN. Also I went half an hour before it closed (which is 4 pm mind you) and they said no they were closed because there was a line, but I saw no one. If scheduling is hard for you like if you have a 9 to 5 job, don't buy tans by time period buy sets of them that won't expire. read more

The ladies here at the Scotts Valley location were excellent! They were very helpful with explaining the different tanning options as well as how to use the spray booth. The results were great and I received many compliments! read more

Glimmer & Glow is the best tanning salon I've ever been too in Santa Cruz, CA! They have the best service and all of the employees are very respectful and easy to talk to. They are well trained employees who do nothing but the best to keep the salon clean and in shape for all of their customers. I love going here and highly recommend trying it out!! You'll love it and never regret it read more

Scotts Valley staff is always friendly, knowledgeable of tanning products and they keep the tanning beds and stand up clean and ready for the next clients use. Thank you for making my 15 minute tanning experience pleasurable every time! read more

Until today I would have had good things to say about this place. All of the ladies that run the reception have been exceptional but then there's Bailey. She was rude unprofessional, giggling with other "girls" who looked to be 30ish. She had no time to speak top me about what my options were since it was my last day of a $50 2wk deal that I got. Which turned out not to be a good deal for me or anyone else that works regular hours. Being closed weekends sucks too. But Bailey and her posse were the icing. I got there at 6:15 pm. They close at 7 and there were 2 people ahead of me. She said that they were "unfortunately" unable to accommodate me last day or not. And that it was just too bad. Won't waste another $50 there. read more

Jalyn is amazing. She made me feel so comfortable and helped me with stand up bed. The place is clean and super cute and has really cool jewelry too!!! I will be back when I come into town. Thank you read more

Not even worth a rate. Awful service and no manners. Useless and pointless. Save your money and go elsewhere, unless you enjoy wasting your time and be mistreated. On top of talking with somebody who's supposed to sell "beauty treatments" to cheer you up and you end up sadder than before. :-( read more

Really sad to say this because I went to this salon a lot before this happened. I signed a three month contract with them for the wellness pod and decided I did not like or need it. They told me I couldn't get off my contract or else I would have to pay a $50 fee. So I kept paying for three months and I was so excited to not be charged again after that (also I have not been in the salon for two months they can check the records) so I basically paid for two months with no services. Then they charged me on the fourth month! I called to get my money back and I was totally shocked. They said I need to "write an email" and since I never wrote an email I can't get my money back -even though I called the month before and the worker never told me that. They stole my money and I can't believe it. Just because they are desperate to keep there business does not mean they have to take my hard working money that I need to pay my own bills with. Awful people and business :( read more

I loved the santa cruz store and was excited Sue opened the Scotts Valley tanning. Closer to home. Nice place. Prices are great. The only thing is if you come after work, they're is a wait for the beds. They offer spray tanning, UV tanning and infrared pod detox. read more

I love Glimmer and Glow! The first time I came in I was helped by the owner, Sue, who is amazing. She let me try a tanning session and a cocoon pod for free. The prices are very reasonable and the tanning beds are really high quality. I have tried one other tanning salon and I have seen results from G&G WAY faster. read more

So relaxing! I enjoy the staff and there cleanliness is so nice brought my bf here too and he is loving the cocoon wellness pod :)

Went in for a spray tan- super clean and nice salon. State of the art spray tan did a perfect job of getting me ready for a vacation. I'll be back!!! read more

I went in for my first time at the beginning of this week. I was so excited that finally we have another tanning salon in Scott's Valley. It's been years since I've gone to one and the owner made me feel right at home. She gave me a tour, helped me pick the best option for me and my skin type. She was awesome! I can't wait to go back! read more

I have loved this place for 2 summers now! Always friendly service clean environment. Hope they stay here a long time!!
