About

Gaya founded Glow by Gaya on the belief that everyone should feel comfortable in their body, and the studios are described as welcoming and non-judgmental.

The Long Island City studio at 5-17 46th Rd, 2nd floor, is the flagship and serves clients from Queens, Brooklyn and Manhattan. The Providence studio at 131 Pitman St, Studio 24, is convenient for clients in southern Massachusetts. Both locations offer body waxing and sugaring, and spray tanning is custom to each client: airbrush tans in Providence and custom spray tans in Long Island City. Prices vary by location.

The business says its spray tan solutions are made with all-natural ingredients and that the results look natural rather than orange or streaky. Each color is custom mixed for the client. The water-based solutions are oil-free, fragrance-free and alcohol-free, and are infused with ingredients including witch hazel, glycolic acid, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, vitamin B3, resveratrol, CoQ10, caffeine and squalane. Glow Getter is a sunless tan for evening appointments, rinsed after 10 to 12 hours. Rapid Glow rinses in 4 to 6 hours with full results within 24 hours. Bridal Glow is a clear, no-bronzer option with a 1 to 4 hour rinse, marketed as transfer-resistant and intended not to stain gowns or linens.

Sugaring uses an all-natural paste made from sugar, lemon and water, and waxing is offered alongside it. Brazilian and full bikini services can be shaped, with a thin strip or small shape kept if preferred. V-Facial is a treatment for the bikini area that cleanses, exfoliates and nourishes, and it can be added after a Brazilian or bikini sugaring or booked on its own. Glow Memberships include one tan per month and save $10, and unused sessions roll over. Aftercare products are available for purchase.

The studio describes its work as gentle, results-driven skincare, using products it describes as clean and vegan.

The studios are described as welcoming and non-judgmental.
