I went to the West Loop location and had such a great experience! My tan technician Kylie was lovely, discussed what type of tan I was looking for and completed the spray super efficiently (probably the quickest tan experience I have had!). The tan itself looks GREAT -- so natural, not orange at all and is holding up really well (I am about 6 days post tan and it isn't patchy or coming off anywhere!). The rapid tan was quick and easy to remove and the smell was super minimal (we all know the fake tan smell lol). I will definitely be back for another one once this one finally fades. Finally, I felt like the pricing was super fair for the quality of work that was done/tan that was given and how easy the whole process was. It was right in line with what I used to pay in DC before I moved, so no surprises there either. read more

This was my first professional spray tan, and the team was incredibly attentive and welcoming. They made me feel completely comfortable and guided me through everything. Highly recommend! read more

I went to get my first spray tan today and unfortunately there was a scheduling mixup. The owner, Jennifer, learned about the mistake and immediately called and texted me with a couple of tanning options. I very much appreciated her doing this as I was able to get a spray tan within the hour. Her great customer service (and the tan) will definitely make me go back to GlowOut! I highly recommend!! read more

Loved my custom spray tan. So much better than a bed. My spray tan artist made me feel comfortable and gave me some travel size products to upkeep during my trip! read more

Every time I come here the team is caring, lovely and helpful! The tan quality has been stellar, natural and glowy. Recommend!

I have been here multiple times! Jenn is so fantastic! She checks in with you the day after to make sure everything looks okay and is always happy to get you back in if there is anything you are not happy with. Highly recommend this salon and this team! Have been going for years for special occasions and they never disappoint. read more

The best spray tan I've gotten! The ladies here are so kind and really take the time to explain everything. The color was incredible and lasted a lot longer than others I've had. read more

Jen was so friendly, professional and informative. The studio was beautiful and immaculate. The tan was just perfect.

The best spray tans ever. I've had about 4-5 different sprayers and they always do an amazing job. They are so thoughtful and have everything set up nicely for you. Can't recommend enough. Also a pale girl with sensitive skin! read more

Love the Glowout Salons! I've had a couple spray tans from here and always have a great experience. They have a super easy online scheduling program and always send friendly reminder texts. Everyone is really professional and friendly. They even have a small parking lot which is super helpful in that area. They offer a variety of tanning options depending on how much time you have. I'll definitely be back!! read more

Glowout is by far the best (yet still affordable) indulgence in the city. I'm attending a wedding in 2023 and my first thought was 'I hope Jenn is working!!' You deserve this - go! read more

I've been getting airbrush tans for years and this is hands down my favorite place. Jenn, the owner, is so fantastic. During my first appt, I realized I really f*cked up and used a body wash beforehand that messed with the tan as she was applying it. When I say she went above and beyond to make it work - wow. She somehow made it work and it turned out perfectly - zero streaks. The color was so natural and beautiful, and the exact shade I'd hoped for. I wish I had a good photo to post to show her amazing work - I will for sure take one next time I go :) read more

I have been to GlowOut over the last 2 years and each time has been a wonderful experience. Everyone is so kind and informative. They answer all of my questions about tanning and every single time my tan lasted so long! Everyone complimented my tan and I feel very confident every time! Thank you Jenn, Stephanie and others for always making me look and feel my best. I recommend GlowOut to all of my friends and they love it too! I can't wait to go back soon. read more

Well.... I have two problems with this salon. I had to reschedule my appointment day of (yes I know about the cancelation policy - but I figured since I had to reschedule say day & they had the time, it wouldn't be an issue) and I got charged for both appointments. The bigger issue is the quality of the spray tan. 1. I asked for my face to be tanned and she barely touched my face. The color difference between my face and neck is crazy. 2. I didn't wear my watch for 4 days after the tan and after an hour of wear, I have a circle mark on my skin. I followed all instructions given. I did not even rinse off my body for 24 hours and then showered and washed off after about 48 hours. Horrible service and policy. Will not go back. read more

This was my first ever spray tan and it won't be my last. They are so friendly, accommodating, helpful, informative and truly was a great first experience! Also doing this for my wedding so felt like I can trust them to look my best on my wedding day!!!! read more

I went to Stephanie for a spray tan yesterday, and had an amazing experience! She consulted with me on the color, made sure I understood the procedure, shared after care instructions, and kept the conversation flowing throughout the spray, which put me completely at ease. When I woke up and showered today, I was so happy to see how even and natural it turned out. I have already recommended Glowout to my friends, and will definitely be back for more! read more

I hadn't had an airbursh tan in probably 7-8 years, so when I was trying to make an appointment to get one done for my wedding, I was a little nervous! I did a ton of research on the best spray tan salons in the city and came across Glowout. They were close to home, had pretty good reviews and prices were decent, so I went for it. So happy I did! My spray tan turned out perfect for my big day :) the color was exactly what I wanted.. dark but not too dark or orange. No blotches or unevenness. Samantha did my airbrush tan and she was super sweet and made me feel very comfortable and understood exactly what I wanted. The ONLY critique I have for this salon is that the rooms are very very small, making it easy to bump into the walls and potentially smudge your tan. Overall though, wonderful experience! Will be back for my next big event. read more

I went here because my usual place was booked. The actual salon was super cute. But this is the WORST airbrush tan I've ever had. The salon is huge yet they have a spray booth so small that you're constantly rubbing up against the wall and getting dark brown spray from pervious appointments all over you. I asked for a natural color and they made me look like a Texas pageant girl. On top of it, they missed so many spots on me (I attached a photo) Worst 50 dollars spent and worst airbrush spray tan. I should have just gone to a machine at LA tan I'm sure it would have been better. read more

Glowout - So bad. Don't come here. - Blow Dry/Out Services Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Came in today for an airbrush express spray tan. Still waiting to see the 24 hour results but the salon was great and Victoria was excellent. She made sure to chat with me about the type of shade I wanted and then customized the aftercare recs for me. The salon itself had a very cute and low key vibe. I'll be back for my next spray tan! It's January and I needed to do something to make me feel like I'd been to the Caribbean read more

I did a lot of research ahead of time and recommend you follow the instructions. I got an express spray tan yesterday and so far I'm very pleased. After exfoliation the night before, not wearing deodorant and perfume I was ready to go. I'd recommend bringing your own thong since I wore full coverage underwear and my butt is quite white haha. The staff is super friendly and this was my first spray tan experience. I got it done prior to my bridal make-up and hair trial so I could make sure it was the right fit. Brittany was my stylist and she was very funny and meticulous. I'm excited to see how it looks on Saturday but I'm very pleased so far. Will update if anything negative happens but I highly doubt it. read more

Jenn & her team are amazing. I highly recommend coming to Glowout if you're looking for a blowout, hair & makeup for an upcoming event. The Glowout team did my hair & makeup for both my wedding & my sister's wedding. I've also come here just for a blowout. I love the decor, everything is so cute and I love that they kept the old deli case from the sandwich shoppe that used to be located there. Lots of great lounge chairs, so perfect if you're coming with a group of friends or having your bridal party come in. Brittany & Yanelli are my faves, I went to a wedding this past weekend and I got a little mixed up with the makeup application I signed up for but they were super accommodating & made sure I left feeling fab. Everytime I've come here I always feel super glamourous and receive compliments on my hair & makeup! :) Jenn and her team are so friendly and make you feel at home. If you're looking to get glam for a special occasion (like your wedding!) or even a night out, Glowout is the place to go! read more

I got my spray tan at Glowout a handful of times. Let me tell you that I usually don't tan and almost never spray tan because of the fear of looking like Oompa Loompa. But sometimes I require to look tan so I don't scare people away with my Dracula like pale skin. The tan comes out very natural looking, never streaky, I am usually completely satisfied with my experience. The tan lasts at least 10 days on my skin, long enough to last through a whole vacation or until you can tan a bit in the sun. The girls are always nice, friendly and make me feel welcomed. I will be back and will recommend. read more

Best spray tan I've ever had! It was super even (not blotchy at all), looked natural, and lasted a full week+ even after a weekend of swimming in the lake. Jamie was very helpful and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. She even emailed me to check in on how the tan was developing. Super cool and personalized experience. I happened to lose my wallet the night before and didn't have the credit card I reserved my appointment with (or any cards at all) - the owner was very accommodating and helped me figure out another payment method. Highly recommend this place for their service and care for their customers. read more

I wanted to like this place. I had a decent experience going in, and the tan turned out pretty even the next day when fully developed. I was excited to have a head start on my summer tan...but it did not stay. It became patchy starting on the second day on my abdomen, knees and a few other places. This is what my knees and a spot on my chest looked like on Tuesday. I moisturized a ton and hadn't even exfoliated. I took short showers, not super hot - pretty precautionary in general. Mind you, I got the tan mid day on Saturday so it was developed fully by Sunday. Don't waste your money here. read more

Beautiful on the inside and with very professional, helpful staff. Got the express tan and it was both natural-looking and long-lasting. So much easier than having to wait overnight. They even had the cutest little dog hanging out there when I went. read more

Once again I found myself on another quick get away with out a glow and that is just a no no!!!! I had a work gala and quickly jumped online to find the closest spray tan I could find! I am SO HAPPY i found Glow Out! The moment you walk into this space you feel like you are at your girlfriends place and treated like a queen! Brittany did my tan and from start to finish so professional! She not only did a fabulous job she had me smiling the whole time! What a ray of sunshine she is!!! I would not hesitate and head to Glow Out right NOW!!! They also do hair and nails so you truly cant beat it! read more

Well looks like I've found my new obsession. I just walked (well ran) here as it started to pour buckets outside. And I'm coming for a spray tan. Great..trouble you think? Wrong! I come up the stairs to this magical land called Glowout. The women at the desk couldn't be any nicer. They tell me not to worry, they will just throw my clothes in the dryer. I think I might move in here. So decor wise...this place is basically my dream. Crazy, sexy, cool. I can't even deal with its fabulousness. So as I wait, I sit on the most romantic plush couch while sipping spa water....can this get any better? Well the answer is YES. I got my spray tan done by Becky who was so sweet and personable. Seeing as this was my first time getting a custom tan, I did not know how I'd feel about standing stark nekked in front of a stranger. Well, turns out Becky made that process as smooth and comfortable as ever. We chatted, we laughed, we cried...not really but you get it. It was seriously the most pleasant experience. Becky did a great job of informing me about spray tan care and also let me know there is this amazing gift from God called an express tan. What is that you ask? Well, you can get a spray tan and shower 3 hours later and you're out the door! No more dreaded 6-8 hour wait. 100% I would recommend this salon to anyone and everyone. They really know how to make you look and feel beautiful. Thank you girls!!! Can't wait to return for my wedding tan! Holler!!!! read more

What a fun little place! Came here with a group of girls to get our hair done before adult prom. The place is a bit hard to find, it's behind Au Cheval in a tiny little hole-in-the-wall entry, then you buzz in, then go up some stairs, behind a door, etc. Not too bad, but a little hard to find. Once I found it, it was great. The decor inside is great, they greeted me right away and asked if I needed anything while I waited for the rest of the group. We brought stuff to make mimosas, and they took everything into the kitchen to keep it chilled, etc. There's also a cute little chihuahua that belongs to one of the owners (I think?) that just kind of roams around. My stylist did awesome too, although I don't remember her name. I had some basic guidelines of what I wanted but told her to just play around, and she did great. All of us in the group ended up with great styles! It was $40 for the updo, which I thought was pretty reasonable. The ambiance overall was fun, too, and they were super nice. They even made up the mimosas for us (I was expecting that we'd do that, which was fine by me), and they made sure to keep the glasses full. Overall, a fun experience and I'd certainly go back for another event! read more

I just found my happy place!!! As a new resident to Chicago, I am so stoked to find this fun space. So far, every time I've been in, I've left in a better mood. Can't hate that. My first visit was for eyelash extensions with Steph- which, ladies ( and a handful of fabulous gentlemen out there), if you haven't tried eyelash extensions yet, DO IT!!! Steph was fairly quick, super gentle and my lashes have stayed put for weeks. I had some friends coming in for a visit about a week later, so Steph suggested I bring them in for blowouts and makeup at Glowout. We had such a FUN girl's day!! Everyone's hair and makeup looked great and we were all laughing and giggling like old friends. The girls who work at this salon are all so damn sweet and you really feel cared for. ( I can't remember the sweet babe who did my makeup's name- It was something kinda unique like Yvonne or Yalani ) Last, but certainly not least I treated myself to a spray tan. ( I know I sound super bougee right now with all these treats to myself, but I swear- I'm not!! ... Just a gal trying to survive winter! ) My spray tan was booked with Katie and it turned out amazing. In all the years I lived in California, I've never had a tan this seamless. It's pretty nuts how much a little spray tan can put some pep in a gal's step. Katie even emailed me the following day to check up. Katie's my girl for tans, but after reading some of the reviews, it's looking like I'm gunna have to book myself something with Brittany as well... I really can't say enough about the vibe of this place and I feel so grateful to live near it. It's so cute and the first place in Chicago that's really made me feel at home. A+ on having a parking lot in that neighborhood and cute little dogs greeting you at the door too!! read more

Really can't say enough great things about this business. EVERY single person who works here is so sweet, funny and easy to be around. Yesterday was my second visit; both visits for a spray tan. I noticed another reviewer on here remarked "Brittany for President" and I'm going to have to agree as she did both my tans and she's fantastic. Great personality and just does a really really great job. Both of my tans came out amazingly well; the perfect glow. The first time, I was super nervous because she didn't even ask how dark I wanted to go. When I asked about that she said "We just base it on what your shade is now and go from there", so I trusted her--which was the right decision. She did an incredible job, and I also just enjoy talking to her (totally forget I'm standing there naked). The owner is wonderful too as I spoke to her on the phone about their newly added services for eyelash extensions. One thousand percent recommend this place for all their services, and especially Brittany for spray tans. So glad I found my "spot". read more

Brittany for president! I got a recommendation for Glowout from my wedding makeup artist, so decided to give them a try before my engagement photos (for brow tint/wax and spray tan). First things first, the space is adorable: Instagram-worthy and just makes you happy! Secondly, everyone who works there is so sweet and positive-- the perfect environment to be in before a big event. I worked with Brittany, who not only was a brow and tan MASTER, but also was so funny and friendly. She made me feel so comfortable during the entire experience, and it truly was fun (which is how beauty stuff should be, right?). I loved the results of both of my services so much that I came back with my MOH before my wedding, and was so happy I did because my brows looked polished, my tan looked natural, and we had so much fun during the process. I can't wait to go back! read more

After much deliberation, I made a last-minute decision to get a spray tan before my wedding. I had never had a spray tan before, and with it being only one week out, I did not have time for a trial. (Oops!) Based on all of the five star reviews, I felt confident making an appointment here. When I called, they were extremely helpful. They were able to answer all of my questions and sent me an informational video prior to arriving. When I came in for my spray tan, I couldn't believe the beautiful space and welcoming staff. (No wonder people love it here!) For my spray tan, I worked with Missy. She made me feel incredibly comfortable, and that's not an easy task when you are standing there mostly naked and (very) pale. I told her I was nervous about being too dark and she reassured me that the tan would be exactly how I imagined it. She was very thorough during the application, and after it was complete, gave me all of the information as far as when I could shower, what lotion to use, etc. A couple of days later, let me tell you...the tan was absolutely spot on. Missy, you are a miracle worker! For anyone like me hesitating to get a spray tan before their wedding-- don't. It was one of the best decisions I made. After my experience with Glowout, I will definitely be coming back very soon. Worth every penny!! read more

I found Jenn 2 years ago when I first moved to Chicago and was looking for someone to do airbrush tanning on me. Finding a new spray tan girl was harder for me than finding a new hair stylist. But after reading all of her fabulous reviews AND finding out she would come to me, in my home, to spray me.....it was a no brainer! She has been flawlessly tanning me regularly for 2 years, sometimes at home and sometimes in the salon (which is so chic). She recently tanned me before my wedding and it came out perfect (no surprise to me though). Even wearing my heavy dress on a hot June Chicago summer day, the tan did not fade or wear off on my dress. The photos came out perfect too, which is a true test! In fact, her tans look better than my real color.....after returning from Bora Bora on my honeymoon, everyone asked me why I wasn't more tan and it's because Jenn wasn't there with me to touch me up after 2 wks! LOL. Thanks Jenn, you're a true artist and always a pleasure to work with. read more

Glowout - Blow Dry/Out Services Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Absolutely the greatest tan I have ever had. I've gone twice and the tan I got both times was just FLAWLESS. I have recommended this place to so many of my coworkers, who also love it. I am planning on taking my sister here when she visits Chicago at the end of the month. That's how much I love it! Both times my tan has looked amazing and lasted a long time. It doesn't smell! I've gotten both the regular and the express. I prefer express, but mostly because I am impatient.The ladies who work there are so friendly and personable and VERY good at what they do. The salon is adorable. Parking can be a little tricky, but I've never had trouble finding a street parking spot after a few minutes of hunting. So much good to say about this place! I will be a regular customer for as long as I live in Chicago! read more

Glowout - Blow Dry/Out Services Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I've been to a few different Blow Out Bars in the city, and Glowout is by far my favorite. My go-to girl lately is Britney and she does such a great job!! My hair held its curl and style for so long - usually my hair goes limp after a few hours!! I'm a huge fan of Amika products - I use them at home, so it was nice to see that they also use the brand. Plus its always a fun time when you're there. They make you feel very comfortable, like you're just hanging out with your friends. I've also had a spray tan by Jen -- wow!!! I went in 2 days before I left my sister's wedding in Lake Geneva and was worried that the tan wouldn't last. Having been a tanaholic for the last 15 years (only sprays as of the last 5 years), I would say that she gave me the best color to date! It was natural all the same while giving me that perfect bronzed look. On top of that, our dresses for the wedding were a really pale mint color, (which would contrast an orange tan horribly -- and the color turned out perfect, not orange at all) and I was so impressed that the tan did not come off onto the dress, despite sweating for 12 hours that day! lol. Definitely visit Glowout for your next event! You won't be disappointed. read more

Amazing service and super friendly workers. This is one of the most beautiful salons I've ever been to. The decor in here is gorgeous and they also have a mini cafe where you can get coffee, drinks, and even champagne. They do nails, hair styling, and makeup here. My friend and I got boxer braids (tight double braids) for $20 each. We had a mini photoshoot after with their ring light. I highly recommend! read more

I booked this salon for my wedding. Jenn and her team are amazing. I was impressed w their attention to detail and ability to accommodate by bridal party.
