I would absolutely not recommend going to GLOW right before your wedding -- especially without a…read moretrial. I was rushed in and out of the Greenwich location like I was a last-minute add-on, not a bride days away from walking down the aisle. I was assured that the tan would be flawless and a light, natural glow -- exactly what I asked for. What I got was the exact opposite: a streaky, orange mess that looked anything but bridal. The spray tan artist told me she had "four years of experience" and that I'd be thrilled with the result -- right before hurrying me out to get to her next appointment. My knuckles and hands? Burnt orange. I spent hours scrubbing them in a panic, trying not to look like an Oompa Loompa in my wedding photos. I had to literally use a Brillo pad & dish soap The tan was patchy, uneven, and frankly, awful. Thank God for my gown being long sleeves -- but even with that, I still looked orange underneath and mg dress was entirely backless. I've had better results from a Mystic booth unfortunately To be fair, I do have friends who've had good experiences at GLOW -- so maybe this was more about the individual technician and the fact she was clearly rushing or didn't see the concern in this being my bridal spray tan, But the reality is, getting a bad spray tan two days before your wedding should have been taken more seriously. It wasn't. Brides don't need more stress before their big day

I moved to the Stamford/Greenwich area two years ago and I am so particular about my hair that I…read morewould drive all the way to Ridgefield just to get my hair cut at Adam Broderick's. I woke up feeling impulsive Saturday morning and had to get my hair cut and colored. I called a few salons in the areas and they couldn't fit me in for a cut and color, it was one or the other, me being the brat that I am wanted to get both done. I called Salon 221 and due to a cancellation they were able to fit me in for a cut and color so I was pretty happy before I even walked into the salon. I have very thick and dark Asian hair. Every time I get it dyed, it's never comes out the color I was hoping for. I showed Betsy a picture of the color I wanted and expected her to be like "nah girl, we can't do that in one session," but to my surprise she worked her magic and made it happen. I've never been happier with the results and the service. I'm so glad I found a new salon closer to home and I don't have to drive all the way to Ridgefield again for a hair (Shannon at AB, I will miss you dearly but it's time we part ways.) Betsy was also very informative. I had no idea what a balayage was or even how to pronounce it but she gave me a quick rundown and kept me updated on every step.

Do not have your child's birthday party here. When I spoke to the manager over the phone before…read morebooking the party, I was excited about the fun and activities that were promised. But what I received was completely different. The week of my 7 year old daughter's party, the salon was closed and my emails came back undeliverable. I panicked because I assumed they forgot about the birthday party. I had questions about the hair styling and other activities that was supposed to take place. The theme of the party was Kpop demon hunters and I wanted them to give my daughter a Rumi braid (being that it was a salon, you would think that was an easy ask?). When I finally received a call back, I was never given an answer about the hair. The day of the party, not only were there no extensions (for the birthday girl or anyone else), but the girl doing the hair looked like she's never done hair a day in her life (She even told me she was not a stylist!). She just did a simple braid on my daughter and I was really upset. For some other girls, she put a few curls with a curling iron and did nothing else. I am assuming based on my experience earlier in the week not being able to contact the salon that all the regular stylists were on vacation since the salon was officially closed. Not one of the 3 hosts had any enthusiasm and barely interacted with any of the girls. I had a few parents even say to me that they were very low energy. I think you can imagine how disappointed I was. One of the hosts did simple "face paint" where you could barely recognize what it was she was painting. She also left in the middle of the party - which I thought was very unprofessional. There was also absolutely no structure or flow to the party and everything was free for all. They advertise on the website "Stress-free and all-inclusive celebrations". This party was anything but. I was completely stressed and embarrassed the entire time. My daughter was disappointed about the karaoke. The kids were just grabbing the microphone and making noises. I was very overwhelmed and didn't know what to do. I had to stop the girl from doing hair to play the bingo game that I brought. There was no host-led dancing or other games. The salon had no cake knife or at least something to cut the cake with and the pieces were absolutely butchered. This party was clearly an afterthought and the only nice things about it were what I brought to the salon. It was embarrassing for me as the host and to have other adults notice too. The 3 ladies had no energy and looked like they didn't even want to be there. I would never recommend this place to anyone. I was also ghosted when I tried addressing these issues with the owner.
