Normally I love this place because Amanda and Brittany are literally amazing. I went in yesterday for a spray before a wedding and I had Christine, the blonde Asian girl who I’ve read bad reviews about. Home girl sprayed me in probably 20 seconds. I was naturally tan before I came in but the next day I was literally only tan in the face. Too tan might I add. I said I wanted a light once over on face and it looks like she hit that part the hardest. My boobs/back/torso look the same color as before I came in. The two other girls I’ve had before take their time, talk to you, and make the experience so much better. I would not recommend going to Christine. I don’t know how she thinks she’s doing a good job spraying someone’s entire body in under 30 seconds. Also, there was no one else there! It wasn’t like there was a line around the block. Needless to say I will not be getting sprayed there again unless I can select Amanda or Brittany. It’s really not that hard to be thorough and do a good job.

Love love love. Great friendly staff, excellent service, clean amenities, reasonable prices, and I’ve had good experiences with both waxing and tanning.

Came in for waxing after a long hiatus. Megan was super nice and very thorough. All that you want in a hair removal professional! I’ve already been back and plan to make this my new go to place.

I am a huuuuuge fan of Organic Shimmer The Spa! I got lash extensions done for my wedding and I am so in love with them. I keep on getting compliments on them and it’s been more than two weeks since I had them done, they still look beautiful! They were done by Amanda and she truly is THEBESTOFTHEBEST! Can’t wait to come back :)

AMANDAAMANADAMANDA! Words cannot describe how amazing this girl is at what she does!!! I had a little waxing incident and got the front of my brow waxed off. She gave me brow extensions and completely fell in love! You can’t even tell that where there was a bald spot! I’ll be coming back to get my arch/tails done so I won’t have to fill in my eyebrows anymore! I highly recommend Amanda for brows! She really took the time to see what I wanted and made sure they turned out PERECT! Thank you Amanda

I absolutely love this place! Was referred by a friend and I’ve consistently enjoyed my full body spray tan results. I’ve only seen Megan for my sessions and she is warm, friendly and very talented. No streaks, no premature peeling, and always a natural look. I’ve done with and without the top coat bronze level2 and both treatments lasted over 7days! Highly recommend.

Christina is a spray tan goddess! I came back for another tan and she addressed every single one of my concerns from my previous review. The tan turned out flawless and I actually got plenty compliments on it over the weekend. Christina also explained to me that they were a little understaffed the last time I was in, which is why I was left waiting longer than usual. I really appreciate her being so up front with me! I’ve already made my next appointment with Christina in a couple of weeks. Looking forward to another perfect tan!

This spa is beautiful! The online booking makes it super easy. I needed a quick spray tan before my trip so found this place and decided to stop by. Great service and looks like they offer a bunch of other services too. I may try the eyelash service next time. Highly recommended and I’ll def be coming back!

I’ve been getting my lashes done for over a year now and I had my worst experience with J today at this spa. She aggressively pulled out my lashes to the point where it was super painful and then ripped the gel pads off my face when it was done. There are a bunch of loose lashes and it doesn’t look full at all. Not going back to this place.

I love being tan in the summer. It makes me feel so glam in dresses. Came here twice and both times were great! First time I got medium, which was nice. But I am of darker complexion naturally so I think dark looked the best on me. It is very natural in color. One thing I would recommend is to moisturize a lot because if not it can fade patchy(but that is all tans). Great service, great hours, great color!

Love their airbrush tanning… the clear is a great option and love that it’s organic! Also have had eyelash extensions by J and she did a beautiful job! Highly recommend this place for both!

This place is really clean trendy and parking is easy. I’ve been coming here since they opened. I love getting my nose cleaned and all hair removed really a better way to breathe and live. The spray tan is great I go weekly. Good staff polite and attentive.

The spa a really wanted to love but in no way could after what I witnessed. Total bummer. The good: 1. Super clean facility 2. Great spray tan and wax, thank you Michelle… killer service! 3. Location is easy to find 4. Affordable pricing The bad: 1. The front desk clerk was rude and unfriendly. She gave me that«I’m too good for this place» vibe. 2. There was a strange lingering sour milk scent in the building. The ugly: 1. That same front desk clerk(I’m now assuming is the owner or manager) was not only rude to me but also to my service provider. Which made me feel really uncomfortable as a client. She scolded/corrected her right in front of me! This woman should take a lesson in class from her staff and lay off the plastic surgery and hair bleach. Especially since you claim to have an «organic» company. What message are you sending out? Really rubbed me wrong and made me think twice about supporting this place. This was a big let down considering my service was excellent!

There is no better salon in town to get all of your beauty needs addressed. Their tanning services are great. Quick appointments in the perfect setup and every time I’ve been there they get the color right on. Their product lasts and they do an awesome job by spreading it evenly. Their waxing is great too. It’s the wax that leaves no irritation on the skin and all aestheticians make it painless. Last but not least, get their facials. They have all the good products and take their time with each client. The place is extremely clean with a relaxing atmosphere. Staff is the friendliest!!! It’s easy to make appointments and even easier to find a parking spot! Hands down, Awesome!

MEGAN is my LASH-SAVER. This is my second time meeting her for lashes. She did my first full set and I came back for a fill because her work is amaziiing! I have gotten many compliments and now it seems like it would be difficult to part with them. megan did an amazing job with the design because not only do they look amazing, it doesnt feel like I have extensions on. She also has great bedside manner and I swear she is a hidden gem for all those not fortunate enough to be born with beautiful long lashes. megan is your girl to see! The pricing here for lashes is also a great deal! Thank you!

Great airbrush spray tan and really clean facility. I’ve found that Shimmer’s spray tan doesn’t turn orange and smear like when you go in those booths. It’s a huge difference and worth the awkwardness of being naked in weird positions in front of a stranger. Prices are fair and the technicians are always really really nice. Parking is metered but easy.

OK, not that I’m a spa diva or anything, but I dig this place. While their specialty may be spray-tanning, don’t worry, there’s much more in store! I just had the pleasure of trying out the eyelash extensions — for no special occasion :) just wanted to try them out — and I would return in a heartbeat. It was faux-mink for me(they don’t offer the real ones, but who cares b/c I wouldn’t do real mink. Oh no no no.) And I came out looking J-LO fabulous! The cat-eye lashes lasted for about 2 – 3 weeks and my real lashes actually stayed intact! Most importantly, the place is super clean and feels like a girly-kind of place. My specialist was the BOMB and explained every step to me as I lay on the table with eyes closed for ~2 hours. Parking is super easy(street parking, btw), and there’s a cool little café next door that looks like a splendid place to try. Take it from me(the most spa-shy person EVER). It’s SPRINGTIME! Try out a little something new for a change :)
