"I feel bad for not remembering my waxer’s name, but she did a fantastic job. We discussed game of thrones at length and it was one of the least painful and most careful waxes I’ve ever gotten. Good price, too!"

"I've been coming here for years for waxing services. They're prompt, courteous, and as accommodating as possible when working with my schedule. Everyone is friendly, skilled, and they always do a great job removing as much hair as painlessly as possible. Usually we're so busy chatting I don't realize we're already finished!"

"I went in for a Belmont (bikini wax where they remove everything close in on the sides and everything from the back). I needed to be swimsuit ready so I thought this would be perfect. I had the most pleasant experience and the girl was super nice but after I got home after the wax I realized I still had hair showing on my bikini line (she did not go far enough in at all) I couldn't even wear a regular bikini bottom without hair sticking out. After inspecting further there were large areas on the back of my thighs she had missed. I called back and she was very nice and said I could come back in the next morning (as I was leaving the next day for vacation). After going back for a second time and leaving for vacation I found several more patches where she had missed waxing entirely. I've never had so much hair leftover when going in for a full leg and bikini wax! Especially when I had to go in for a second time! It was awful and I had to shave certain areas to feel comfortable wearing my swimsuit that week."

"I went into Bare to get a brazilian and found the atmosphere, prices and staff lovely! But when it came time for the wax itself it was hands down the most uncomfortable wax I have ever experienced. I have been getting brazilians for over four years so I'm extremely familiar with the process. The wax and method that Bare uses left me with swelling to the point I had to put a water bottle of ice water on the area and even that didn't help it much. I will go there again for makeup if I need it but there is absolutely zero way I'll ever pay to get waxed again."

"I've been getting Brazilian wax here since late winter and it has always been a pleasant experience. She keeps me talking so I don't focus on the pain and was very understanding when I had to cancel last minute due to surgery. Plus the prices are great!"
