Chester’s Top 10 Beauty Salons & Beauty Professionals

The Profile

GLOW Beauty Chester is the city-centre outpost of a locally grown, multi-award group that advertises more than fifty national and regional beauty industry awards and four salons across the region. The brand describes its teams as professionally trained 'beautologists' and positions the Chester branch as an oasis of calm on Lower Bridge Street for city shoppers and visitors.

The Chester salon offers a broad treatment menu ranging from classic waxing, manicures and lashes through to results-focused facial and body work. Advanced options listed for the wider GLOW group include Environ facials, Crystal Clear technologies, COMCIT and a recently introduced HIFU facial, reflecting a mix of traditional pampering and outcome-driven skin therapies.

GLOW also promotes practical client conveniences that extend beyond the chair: an appointment app, online bookings and gift vouchers purchasable online or in salon. The website highlights specialists delivering new HIFU options and cross-salon availability, so clients who want the newest non-surgical facial treatments can find them across the group rather than at a single location.
