About

The Glam Bar was founded in 2017 and works from two suites in Walnut Creek. The main salon is at Suite 4, and The Glam Bar Academy studio is at Suite 8. The business describes itself as more than a beauty destination, aiming to be a community built on creativity, confidence and connection. Appointments can be in the studio or on location across the Bay Area, and the business travels to select places outside the region on request.

The studio's makeup work spans bridal days, engagement shoots, senior photos, quinceañera celebrations, prom, school dances, family and maternity or newborn portraits, brand photography, headshots, and parties and galas. On the hair side, guests can book dry styling, blowouts, volumizing, and deep conditioning, and a clip-in extension or hair piece can be fitted to any hairstyling service for an extra $20. The Brazilian Blowout, a relaxing service, coats the hair in a protein layer to tame frizz and smooth the cuticle; it starts at $350, with the final cost set by hair density and length.

Bridal packages run from $536 to $646, and each one includes a bride trial session. Bride trials are mandatory, while the wedding party may attend one if they wish. The team sets trial dates rather than taking online bookings, so brides first submit the Bridal Inquiry Form, and replies may take as long as three business days. No bridal trials happen on Saturdays. Packages for bridesmaids and other wedding party members cost $236 to $366 per person. Airbrush application uses a handheld air compressor to spray foundation onto the skin, with coverage adjustable from sheer to full. Every makeup service except Soft Makeup includes false lashes at no added cost.

The Glam Bar Academy helps clients learn to do their own makeup. Choices include a private one-on-one session for $158 lasting 90 minutes, group classes for two to eight people at $158 per attendee running 1 hour and 45 minutes, group one-on-one lessons, and a false lash application lesson at $108 per attendee lasting 60 minutes. Each false lash attendee takes home a complimentary pair of natural lashes and professional lash adhesive. Lessons cover skin prep, matching foundation shades, placing contour and blush, eye makeup, and Golden Ratio brow shaping. The lessons are aimed at personal use and do not amount to professional makeup artist training or certification. Classes are held Monday through Thursday, with a few Friday and Sunday slots available when booked in advance, and none on Saturdays.

Booking requires a 50% deposit, and appointments are not guaranteed until the deposit is paid. Bridal and wedding party services require a 50% non-refundable deposit to secure the date. Cancellations must be made at least 72 hours ahead; later cancellations and no-shows are charged the full service price plus a 3.5% card fee, which applies to all card payments. Arrivals more than five minutes late incur a $10 fee for each five-minute interval, and appointments may be canceled and charged in full at 15 or more minutes late. On-site fees start at $48 Monday through Thursday and $88 Friday through Sunday, and on-location services include a 20% gratuity per artist. Clients must disclose any skin or hair conditions before booking. Bookings are made through Vagaro, which requires creating a login account.

The business describes itself as a community built on creativity, confidence and connection, rather than only a place for beauty services.

Visits include complimentary water, wine and light refreshments, and guests are welcome to bring their own food and drinks.
