What People Are Saying About Completely Bare

Featured Review

Sandra Ramani

Contributor

The Scene – French antique-style furnishings, a cream and gold palette and soft lighting help create an elegant, all-around soothing vibe, from the parlor-like reception area back to the eight treatment rooms (one with private shower). Of course, it wouldn't be Completely Bare without the innovations: The two waxing rooms feature flat-screen TVs on the ceilings to distract clients during those more intense hair removal moments. – – The Services – Clinical, results-oriented services in a spa-like setting make Completely Bare popular with men and women. The hair removal…

Ahh yes.. the "and more..."!

by corylugnutts at Citysearch

Best Wax NY

by SashN at Citysearch

Jill all the way!! Went in for a completely bare wax. The most painless and quickest wax I've had in my life. Done in 15 minutes with minimal strips and calming encouragement. I'm usually a sobbing wreck by the end but I was actually laughing at how great they treated me. Super great atmosphere, definitely the place I'll be going to from now on.

BAD LASER TREATMENTS

by Verity11 at Citysearch

I've been going here for a year and a half for laser treatments, and still have the same amount of hair! This place is a scam. Also, they keep canceling my appointments because the equipment is broken.

Will Never Go Here Again

by KatieWisdm at Citysearch

i usually go to Valley, but i received a Groupon discount for this place, so i thought, why not try it out? this was quite possibly the most ineffective brazilian wax ive ever received. my thighs (and other areas) are now all red and bumpy and i can still see ALL of my hair under the skin. its like not one single hair was actually ripped out by the root. i got all of the cons with NONE of the pros of getting waxed. i shouldve stuck with what i KNEW was a good thing-- Valley.

AVOID THIS SPA!!

by oysterpearl at Citysearch

I first went here for Shecky's Beauty Week and also bought a full laser hair removal package; what I got was a series of shoddy, lopsided treatments by staff who were not very knowledgeable of laser hair removal and basic health/medicine. I consulted with an experienced laser hair removal specialist from a different spa, and she said that even after undergoing a complete package of treatments from Completely Bare, it looks like I am starting from the very beginning (because the hair all grew back) and that I was likely misinformed and scammed. Be prepared to be interchangeably pushed for your money and ignored!

  • Cons: overpriced, scammy, terrible customer service
