In need of a serious pamper session? Always. Lucky for you, the answer’s sitting snug in pretty Long Crendon, just shy of Brill. Glow Beauty was opened in August 2022 after owner Amelia decided to branch out using her expert Champneys training (she got a 100% scholarship, FYI), and Muddy’s already a massive fan of this local gem.

The salon’s ethos is all about focusing on the whole body, inside and out, which means your emotional and mental wellbeing is just as important as the colour of your mani-pedi. Expect luxe products from Elemis and Clarins, plus organic Brit brand Neal’s Yard, and treatments like massages and facials specifically tweaked to suit your needs. Even better, mothers-to-be can join in on the pampering with specialised pregnancy massages.

Special event? Glow Beauty offers the full works: brow shaping and tinting, luxury manis and pedis, body waxing and spray tanning, and even ear piercing. You’ll stroll out a brand new woman (or man, since the team also offers a clutch of men’s treatments). Looking good!
