Best of Citysearch for Spray Tanning
Faux Glow offers Spray Tanning & Skin Care in NYC and was voted Best of Citysearch for Spray Tanning 2 years in a row. Faux Glow was started in 2003 by Jeani Roth. The reason she started this business is because she is allergic to the sun and was obsessed with self tanning. Additionally, she also loves organic products and wanted to share her passion with all of her clients, so she met with a product developer to create an organic product that gives everyone that healthy glow we all love. Jeani's staff really makes the clients feel very special. They go above & beyond to pamper everyone. Call Faux Glow at 347-515-6676 for any inquiries or to book your appointment. …

Tips for Faux Glow
August 15, 2010
Great place for men!.
I was a little nervous trying this out for the first time but they made me feel very comfortable. I went to Liz and she did an amazing job and the color looked so authentic.
So if you are not sure whether or not to try this out because you are a man, it's definitely worth it.
It was great to have color already before I went on vacation so I didn't have to stress out about laying in the sun.
And my wife saw how great I looked that she ended up booking an appt. also - so now were both hooked.

Going here for years....
I have been going to Faux Glow for years and they have always been consistent. I try to use the same person each time I go in but if they are not working, I will use someone else, and I always get an even application.
I love the energy when I walk into Faux Glow - everyone always has a smile on their face. So if I'm ever having a bad day - they cheer me up.
Thanks for making me feel great!

Mixed Review. Well I had two sessions of a full body organic tan about a month apart with two different techs. Even though I asked for the same color, the first time was darker and I did unfortunately have streaks on my thighs,(which I probably should have called about and complained but I didn't.) The second time, as mentioned was much lighter and I was a little disappointed that it looked so similar to a cal tan at a spray booth. For the money it should be cookie cutter application among all the techs and it should be perfect. It has both times been pretty decent but Im going to have a hard time rationalizing spending that kind of money when its so similar to a 25 dollar spray booth.

Hi florabound, I'm sorry about your experiences at Faux Glow (whenever you have an issue with your color - PLEASE call us so we can have you come back in to see the problem and try to fix it for you and if we can't we will give you a free session). Also we keep a record of who you have been with in the past - so if you liked one Senior Glow Color Specialist better than another one - you can request that person - we will just look up your record to see who you 've been with in the past. Thanks for your business.
Regards,
Jeani

nice glow in the summer..... been going to Faux for a long time and the spray tan is pretty good. I go to Liz most of the time and she does just as good as the other girls there, but she will do it for $60 if you pay cash...normally $90 so it is a good deal :) The space is a little small and there is not enough room to open the door all the way when you walk in, a little awkward...but how can you beat a $60 tan without having to be in the sun!

Great Glow!. I came in to get some color because I just got back from my vacation. Liz did an amazing job! She went over colors with me first to pick the right shade and then we went into the room and she sprayed me a very beautiful coco shade - i never tan when i'm outside - I just burn - so this was a pleasant surprise. Look out Faux Glow, I'll be coming back on a weekly visit now that summer is here. Liz thanks for making me feel so great.

I WAS GLOWING!!!.
I'm from Mississippi and I didn't know where to go, so the Four Season's Hotel told us about Faux Glow. I'm so glad they did, I got the best color from Jeani and she made me feel so comfortable.
I already had some color, but I wanted to be really dark - so she made me the color I wanted to be and the shade was beautiful.
Their located next to all the great stores I wanted to visit, Barney's, Bloomingdale's, Bergdorf Goodman's & Henri Bendel's - a girls dream day of shopping. Luckily I did all of my shopping before I went to Faux Glow, because you can't try on clothes afterwards.
I'll be back next time I'm in town. I made sure I took one of Jeani's business cards - so I'm set for my next visit.

Stay out of the sun and go to Faux Glow!.
I don't want to have wrinkles when i get older so I'm staying out of the sun now. I heard about Faux Glow through a friend and I'm so glad she suggested them to me.
Not only was it a great place, but everyone was so nice and Rene did a great job on my color. Everyone asked where I just got back from vacation...so I fooled them;)
Also it took away the stress of having to worry about getting a suntan while I was away - I just sat under an umbrella and relaxed with a drink and a book!
This is my new oasis - can't wait for my next visit.

Just what I was looking for!!!. From the minute I stepped inside I knew this was going to be a great place. Everyone was so friendly and Liz went out of her way to make me feel extra special. She gave me the perfect color and it lasted for 9 days (that was an extra perk). I love all the retail products you can buy here - they have some really great handbags and dresses & many other things. The best thing is they were having this great sale. Can't wait to come back for my next visit.

Dissapointing.
horrible customer service-staff is very unprofessional and rude.
tan was nothing special-lots of spots and unnatural.
overall i was extremely disappointed. i had high hopes based on the many complimentary reviews but in truth, i was completely unsatisfied and felt like i pretty much just threw my money down the drain.

We're sorry you felt this way - you are absolutely right - we pride ourselves on our customer service, so if you felt you had bad customer service then we apologize. If you want to come in again for a free session - we promise to make it up to you (if you would have called us and told us you had spots we would have had you come in so we could have seen them and offered you a free session.) We try to go above and beyond for each of our customers. Again, we're sorry you didn't have that experience.
