The Glow Up is located at 609 S 10th St, Suite 230, in downtown Minneapolis. The business describes itself as a premier day spa and training center. It started in 2017 as a spray tan studio and has since grown into a full-service day spa.

About

Body contouring is one of the main areas of the menu. Non-invasive options include EmSlim, radiofrequency skin tightening, wood therapy, Cavi Lipo, cryo-slimming, vacuum butt lift, Glow EMS+, and What Waist?. The business says these methods work best when combined, so several are sold as packages. A single Try It Out session lets clients test a service before committing to a package.

The skin menu covers facials of several kinds, peels, microneedling, and LED skin brightening. Laser hair removal is priced by area, from small areas up to full body, and clients are advised to plan several sessions spaced weeks apart. Lash lifts with tint, spray tans mixed to each client's skin tone, teeth whitening, and waxing are also offered.

Parking is available behind the building, and the studio entrance is through the back door near the parking lot. Email is the preferred way to get in touch.

The business also runs training. Courses cover body contouring with certification, a novice spray tan course that includes a kit, and a teeth whitening certification. No previous experience or license is needed, and registration is by email.

The business states that its body contouring methods work best when combined, and it offers several of them together in packages.
