The national luxury spray-tanning brand goGLOW has opened its first California location in Sherman Oaks, bringing its skin-first approach to sunless tanning to Los Angeles residents. The timing aligns with increased demand for beauty services during the holiday season, as people prepare for Thanksgiving gatherings, Christmas parties, and end-of-year celebrations.
Inside the modern Sherman Oaks studio, trained Glow Artists create custom airbrush tans using clean, skin-hydrating formulas specifically blended to match each client's skin tone. The brand emphasizes natural, bronzed finishes without the streaks, odor, or orange undertones commonly associated with traditional spray tanning methods. This approach represents a significant shift in beauty standards toward healthier alternatives to sun exposure and tanning beds.
The Grand Opening Celebration is scheduled for Friday, December 5, from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m., featuring live demonstrations, giveaways, and the debut of the brand's new Glow Bar concept that combines luxury skincare and beauty services. Founder Melanie Richards and President Tori Johnston will attend the opening event, where guests can learn about holiday gift card options and seasonal membership programs.
goGLOW's expansion into California's competitive beauty market signals growing consumer preference for wellness-driven, eco-conscious beauty services. The brand's formulas are vegan, paraben-free, and infused with antioxidants and botanicals, reflecting increasing consumer demand for clean beauty products that prioritize skin health over temporary cosmetic results.
California deserves a glow that's as healthy as it is beautiful, said Melanie Richards, Founder and CEO of goGLOW. Los Angeles sets the tone for beauty trends, and we're excited to offer an experience that blends skincare and confidence without the sun damage. Our Sherman Oaks studio was designed to bring that signature goGLOW radiance to the heart of the Valley.
The Sherman Oaks location marks the beginning of goGLOW's planned expansion throughout the Los Angeles area, with the brand already operating 10 locations nationwide and 66 franchise units in development.

The opening represents a broader industry movement toward beauty services that combine immediate cosmetic benefits with long-term skin health considerations, particularly important in sun-intensive regions like Southern California where sun damage remains a significant health concern.
