She took the time to ask me about my skin regime and explain the different products she was using, I truly was glowing after visiting her. The facilities were immaculate. The service was attentive and made me feel like I was the only client there. I was impressed with all the great beauty lines GLOW carries including Smashbox, Peter thomas Roth, Bare minerals, and Mario Badescu. I am sure there were more but that is what I remember. The place looked so Cute! I have already booked my next appointment.

Props to the owner who made it right by sending me a handwritten card apologizing for the mistake and including a partial refund. To me, it wasn't about the money but the fact that I am valued as a customer, and I'm really happy the owner made me feel this way. I love supporting local businesses and recommend you give Aura a try!

In May, 2026, after a massage, the masseuse and receptionist invited me to take part in their 10 month membership program which was to include a "gift" or "add-on service" each month. The first time I used the spa package, I was handed a little bag as my "gift" of the month which contained a little jar of cream had been opened and dipped into, the inside top of the lid was smeared as if someone wiped it off. This unsealed and used product made me lose trust in the company; a massage is a very personal service. I canceled any further service and offered to pay the $11.00 difference between what the massage cost and what I would have paid otherwise. I was told it was their policy to charge the $100.00 cancellation fee, which they hadn't told me that the month before. I would not recommend this place.

I've been a Tommy's Tanning customer for years and always found it was a well run business which is what made me decide to try the wax center. The facility is clean, quiet and the waxing rooms are private. The tech who completed my wax was friendly, professional and instantly made me feel calm. I was very nervous and she answered all of my questions and did a great job. I can't say it was painless but they use hard wax which made it less painful. Once the waxing part was over I don't feel much pain at all. The prices are reasonable. I will 100% be back again!
