GLOW takes the day spa experience to the next level with their dedication to providing guests with the most immersive spa and beauty experience possible. In addition to the signature scented relaxing waiting room and exclusive roof-top patio – this Day Spa offers more than 50 different spa services along with an all-new blow dry bar. The spa is most well-known for its array of award-winning signature services, which include Permanent makeup, Eyelash extensions, Facials and Barrie’s best Mani’s & Pedi’s. Glow has created a space that is elevated and upscale - yet cozy and not stuffy. An inviting space for their guests to feel at home while they unwind and relax upon entering.

Owner & Founder Kimberly Crook was looking forward to completing the full spa & beauty experience by adding the new Blow Dry Bar. Kim had a clear and creative vision for the Blow Dry Bar to be different from the Spa interior design and atmosphere. Kim’s experiences from travelling to different cities around the world collided to get the perfect mix of design that is both welcoming and rejuvenating. Her vision has now come to fruition including Barrie’s first ever exclusive Blow Dry Bar with a Spa twist! “It’s like a facial for you head” with each custom shampoo incorporating a relaxing scalp massage, lavender eye pillow and hot towels to ensure the entire experience is relaxing.

Custom designed salon and spa furniture was sourced and procured from multiple sources around the world with shampoo basins that allow you to lay down. The café bar counter in the Blow dry bar was also custom designed and built specifically for the space to create a trendy, open concept element, and encourage socialization and less staring in the mirror.

“Overall, it’s been incredible seeing the vision come to life,” says Kimberly Crook. “The Blow dry bar flows and compliments the spa so nicely. Our clients are loving it and we are already getting so many new clients and brides because of the Blow dry bar and all it has to offer.

GLOW is expanding the Café to offer more fun food options to better cater to guests while they enjoy their time at the Spa. Glow Day Spa & Blow Dry Bar is the perfect destination for bridal and wedding parties looking for one place to get everything done under one-roof. They even offer a professional photography pass so the space can be used for “getting ready” photos. It’s simply amazing and a dream come true for a lot of brides in Barrie and the surrounding areas. Bridal parties can enjoy Mimosas, Champagne toasts and upscale Charcuterie boards and Horderves while they prepare for their special day.

From the Blow Dry Bar to the Rooftop patio - our in-house event coordinator makes sure all your dreams come true. Call today to book your consultation or connect with us through Wedding Wire and one of our representatives will get back to you.

Bridal Party Hair & Makeup

I hired Glow Day Spa to come to my parents home to do hair and makeup for my bridal party and I on the morning of my wedding. Riali (hairstylist) and Priya (makeup) were fantastic. They were on-time, professional, fun, and delivered outstanding service. Both ladies took the time to ensure they did our hair and makeup the way we wanted and we all looked flawless. I would definitely recommend their mobile services to other future brides to be. Thanks for making me feel great on my big day!

Bride and bridesmaid Hair

Glow did a fantastic job of accommodating our last minute request for the day of hair for the bridal party. They sent two stylist to our house and were very professional. Everyone was happy with the service and their hair styles.

Bait and Switch at its finest.

We had a contract with Glow Day Spa through email, for the bride, bridesmaids, and mothers of both the bride and groom of our wedding party.

We had the dates and prices agreed to in writing and a deposit paid.

Little did we know that when we went in for the hair and makeup trial for the bride, not only did they do a terrible job, they then informed us that prices were actually almost double what we had agreed to. When we asked why, they said “because it’s for a wedding” and that’s just how it is.

So we asked for the deposit back and were told it’s not refundable, which if you actually know the consumer protection act of Canada as I have to being a small business owner myself, is not legal. I could have pressed the issue but figured I’d let them keep that deposit payment as compensation for the reviews that I’ll be leaving everywhere I am able.

This place is a scam, and I would recommend going anywhere else.
