I have been going to Stephanie for Brazilian waxes since 2019! She's been consistent, fairly priced, and hygienic which is why she's been my one and only waxer since then. It doesn't matter if the waxes are 3 weeks, 3 months, or 3 years apart- when you see her, it's like linking up with a dear friend! Her customer service is top tier and her personality is genuine. She's super thorough, takes her time, is gentle, checks in to make sure you're ok, and advises on how to maintain/improve the integrity of your skin to prevent hair bumps. Highly recommend. read more

Not only is Stephanie amazing, but the studio is also immaculately clean and welcoming. I really appreciate the attention to hygiene and the relaxing atmosphere. Every visit feels like catching up with a friend while getting top-tier service. read more

I'm so happy to have Stephanie in my beauty squad. I used to get waxed all the time with her but life caught up and honey, it'd been years since I had a wax. That needed to change. I was so happy to see she was still in business and I was able to make an appointment within a day or two that worked for me. Location is easy to get to in Martinez - no hassle with parking or having to pay a meter. She keeps her salon trendy cute and super clean. I appreciate the numbing spray she provides too, though she makes it painless as possible anyways. She is sweet, down to earth, and chatting with her makes the wax go quick. I LOVE supporting local, woman owned Asian businesses too. I will never even think of letting ANYONE ELSE come near me with wax down there again. Plus I love the touch of offering a glass of wine with the brazilian! read more

I have been going to bare bunz for a year and a half now. Every time I go, Stephanie always makes me feel relaxed. Could not imagine going anywhere else. read more

Stephanie was amazing! Super attentive and thorough. Made me feel so comfortable and the service just flew. Before I knew it it was over. She has the cutest little studio. The space is cozy and quite well lit and just overall welcoming. I will definitely be back. read more

Stephanie is a fabulous waxing artist. She is very skilled. She gets you in and out quickly and you never feel rushed. She is as great person to have on your self care team and she is a total sweetheart. I highly recommend her services. She never lets me leave without taking care of my "old man" ears. read more

Love going to Stephanie! I've been going for 6 years and have followed her all around the Diablo area. Her studio is so personal and nice and she's so accommodating! read more

Stephanie is the only person I will go to for waxing! She is incredibly professional and creates such a safe and judgement free environment for her clients. I recommend her to everyone I know. read more

Stephanie made me feel so comfortable. It was my first time. Definitely will be coming back! Thank you!

I'm so happy I found Bare Bunz waxing salon.. I just moved to East Bay and needed a new waxing spot, and I def found a great one! Stephanie is amazing, I felt like I had known her for years. Very professional, and I could tell she cares about her customers' results. Highly recommend this location. read more

I've been a client of Steph's for YEARS and have no intention of changing that! I trust no one else with my brows! Steph has consistently been professional, courteous, quick, accommodating, and just good vibes in general! She does a great job at making clients feel calm and at ease while she's working. I can't recommend her enough! Her location is super private, and there's a free parking lot downstairs. She also offers booking through a link, which is super convenient! 100000/10 recommend! read more

OMG, Stephanie is the sh*t! I just had an almost painless full Brazilian and full legs waxing that took about 45 minutes - maybe less! There is not a hair left in sight. You normally wouldn't think of waxing as "fun," but it was HELLA fun! I almost asked if I could stay and hang out! Hahaha! Her studio is decorated beautifully, and everything is clean. Stephanie has an awesome personality and makes you feel super comfortable while still being professional. Her bubbly vibe definitely keeps your mind off what's getting waxed off. Look no further, book now! I promise you won't regret it. read more

Seriously the best wax studio/waxer you'll ever find!!! Her prices are unbeatable, and her service is always on point. She has some of the best techniques. I have some of the thickest hair and her waxes are painless! She's quick, clean, and so kind! I will recommend her time and time again! Steph if you're reading this, THANK YOU! read more

you guys!! my experience with Stephanie was AMAZING!! not only was she punctual, she is professional, friendly, thorough and made the whole appointment fly so quickly! i never thought i would ever say that i can't wait to book my next appointment in the future. so happy i found my waxer and even more happy that she's a local too. read more

Oh my god. Is it possible to leave this place in a happier mood then when you had gone in? I'm here to say yes! I made an appointment for a Brazilian and Stephanie was pure amazingness. First off, she makes you feel welcomed and comfortable right off the bat. She is very sweet and truly cares about the services she provides. Secondly, Stephanie is very very quick when pulling the wax which makes the service go quickly, and less painfully. She had the numbing spray which I applied when I arrived which always helps! She tailored her technique to how I personally best handled this service, which reduced my anxiety and anticipation (She asked if I preferred to be given a heads up/count down each time or if she should just speed along, I asked her to pull without the heads up so I don't anticipate each time). Another thing I loved about her service was that she plucked after. Instead of leaving the stubborn, tough-to-pull hairs in there, she cleaned up the area further. I felt 100% safe in there (in reference to COVID precautions) and I just cannot emphasize enough how amazing she is. Please support a local business and see her for your waxing services! read more

Stephanie is the best! Her new location is so cute and welcoming and her service remains top notch. You can't beat her prices for the quality work she provides. Steph knows her stuff and you can trust her to take care of all your beauty needs! read more

I'm still laughing. Stephanie is one of a kind. How do you make a first timer feel comfortable in such a vulnerable situation? She does it. She's way beyond technically good at her craft, she's a master at putting people at ease. read more

I am absolutely obsessed with Stephanie. I have been going to her for all of my waxes for about 4 years now. About 2 years ago I moved a few hours and I will still wait until i'm back in the area to get work done with her. She's such a joy to chat with and she really works at making the process as painless as possible. I've cheated on her one time and vowed that I would never do so again, I have never had such an amazing wax experience as I do when I come to Stephanie. She really takes time to get to know her clients and she ensures that you feel as comfortable as possible. I recommend her to everyone that I know- she's truly a waxing QUEEN! read more

If you're on the fence about getting waxed or feeling uncomfortable about the process, go see Stephanie. She makes you feel very at ease with her bubbly, outgoing personality and her waxes are amazing. If you're reading this review this is your sign to book an appointment with her today. read more

I never thought I would actually look forward to getting a brazilian, but Stephanie is THAT good! I have gotten waxed by several people in the past and Stephanie is, by far, the best in the Bay Area. She is quick and her waxing is practically painless (which is unheard of!) Stephanie really makes an effort to get to know you as well as your hair, the skin where she's waxing, and figures out what works best for you. Above all, Stephanie is such a genuine person. Her sweet, caring personality is unmatched and I'm so happy I found her on Yelp! read more

Stephanie is THE BEST! I have gone radiant wax and would always leave with irritation and not a clean wax (break the hair instead of extract). Stephanie is so talented and always gets me so bald and with no irritation. She's also just so sweet, professional and makes a painful process easier. I cannot recommend her enough! read more

Stephanie has clearly been doing this a long time. She is quick, efficient and friendly ! Makes you instantly comfortable and welcome. It's a completely private studio. If you are looking for a switch or trying out waxing for the first time , either one , she's the one !! read more

I was absolutely dreading this appointment after my last sugar wax from a different studio, HOWEVER after my appointment at Bare Bunz I left so excited to book my next appointment with Stephanie! My appointment: I booked last minute, and she was more than accommodating!! I got a free glass of champagne with my appointment. The wax itself was pain free, she reassured me through the entire process. All of the prices are 100% reasonably priced. I seriously cannot wait to come back! Thank you Stephanie! read more

Bare Bunz Wax Studio - Waxing Near Me - Martinez, California

Stephanie is the BEST!! She is super friendly always a great laugh and conversation during my appointments with her! I love how she leaves my eyebrows!! Makes you feel very comfortable!! read more

Wow! Perfect is the only word that comes to mind. Stephanie did an amazing job! She definitely knows what she is doing and she is passionate about it. She got it all. I have been to so many places that leave stragglers behind and she did not disappoint! I got a brazilian wax and waxed my underarms. She makes you feel comfortable and the pain isn't too bad. She gives you numbing spray to help with the pain (optional) and I took some Tylenol an hour before my appointment. She is the sweetest and makes great conversation. I would definitely recommend her. I will be seeing Stephanie once a month! The price is reasonable, not expensive. I do want to reiterate what she told me, "You have to go religiously to get the best results. Shaving in between waxes will ruin the process." Hair grows back thinner after waxing and who wants to shave all the time. read more

Stephanie is amazing!!! I will never go to another wax studio again. I was greeted by Stephanie in the nail shop and had a complimentary glass of wine after a long day at work. Stephanie was very fast and efficient. She also offers a numbing spray and fully educated me on after care. Also can't beat the price ! Make sure to grab one of her loyalty stamp cards on your way out. read more

Bare Bunz Wax Studio - Waxing Near Me - Martinez, California

Obsessed with Stephanie and this little studio!!! SWEETEST woman and hands down best wax I've had in years. My skin wasn't red after, which I'll never understand. Easy, fast, and perfect done. Usually I have random peach fuzz in places, not with Stephanie!! I can't wait to go back. My list of services is about to double!! I got full leg, Brazilian and underarms. I feel like a new women! Stephanie is so professional and doesn't skimp on anything to make you feel taken care of and respected. read more

i have been going to Stephanie for almost a year now. Stephanie work is outstanding and I am always please with her work. Her personality is outgoing and friendly it makes me so comfortable when I am getting my waxing done. Also, the place is super clean. Stephanie definitely "Rocks". read more

Stephanie is the absolute best when it comes to waxing - painless and quick - my Brazilians are never uncomfortable! Plus Stephanie is an absolute doll and so fun to chat with - she makes what can sometimes be an awkward position seem natural. I highly recommend her services!! YOu will not be disappointed. read more

Stephanie was amazing! A complete professional. This is my first time getting waxed in quite a while, her service was quick, clean and professional. She made sure to tell me and then remind me about all post waxing instructions. Her prices are incredibly reasonable! She was great to speak to and made the service as pain-free and quick as possible. I've already rescheduled my next appointment with her and cannot wait to see her again. read more

WOOOOOO!! Stephanie is freakin INCREDIBLE!! I went in for my first Brazilian wax. I was a little nervous, not too bad. I felt completely at ease after meeting her, she is so sweet and personable! She gave me a glass of champagne and instructed me on what to do to get ready. She gave me a numbing spray to help with the pain. I'm not sure if it numbed me or not, but I have an extremely difficult time getting numb anyway. But it honestly didn't matter because it didn't hurt AT ALL! No joke. Stephanie was so quick and efficient, I barely felt a thing. I don't know why I had been so nervous before, it was a breeze! She's my go to from now on =) read more

My normal waxer got a foot injury and needed time off. I found bare buns on Yelp, so I thought, why not? Reviews are glowing and the price is good. The online scheduling was a breeze. Stephanie is awesome too. She has numbing spray (which I really didn't need) and has the offer of using soft wax, which I got used to since I get waxed with soft. With some bubbly on, she got to work. (You get champagne). The work was done pretty quickly and she is fairly detail oriented. Wax didn't hurt too much, except as you know, it's always the lips that hurt. (Just skin, no bone) Of course, she is very clean and sanitary. She's got years of experience and working at the major chains before getting her own. First timers get a discount. Stamp cards are great too! Great for your first Brazilian, even though I've been getting waxed for years. I definitely recommend! read more

Been meaning to post for sometime, but time seems to escape. Only nothing escapes in her craft!! Brazilians. She is quick and really good! Ugh, she'll attack them with tweezers if needed, including in-growns. The love/hate of waxing. Stephanie is hands down my go-to unless she quits or move. When I moved from Boston had the same waxer for over 3 years! I will be coming here until other wise. Support your local folks and small businesses - European Wax center can't touch these "Bare Bunz"! She is like hanging out with your girlfriends, minus the awkwardness ;-) read more

Bare Bunz Wax Studio - 10+ visits....because she is THAT good! - Waxing Near Me - Martinez, California

Stephanie is excellent at what she does! I had my first appointment at Bare Bunz and couldn't have left more satisfied with the service. The salon was neat and clean with a welcoming atmosphere and in an easy to find location. Stephanie made me feel welcomed and like I had known her forever which is just what I wanted. I hated having to go to the big chain waxing salons and having it be so impersonal, not knowing who your waxer is, and having them push products on you after the service. Stephanie provided a numbing spray, something I had never had a waxer provide before! It definitely helped because I didn't feel a thing! Stephanie was sure to check multiple times to make sure the wax wasn't too hot and that I was comfortable and not in any unnecessary pain. As a plus size woman I was made to feel comfortable and welcomed. I didn't have to worry about being body shamed, something I know larger women have to deal with and a reason why some wouldn't consider getting waxing services. Overall, I highly recommend Bare Bunz and will be making it my go-to wax spot. -Annie read more

I've been seeing Stephanie for 3+ years now for my Brazilians and, on occasion, eyebrows. She's amazing at making you feel comfortable -- which I really appreciated since the first time I came I was terrified!!! She's funny, warm, inviting, which is why I continue to see Stephanie even after she changed locations to 20 min. away instead of just 5. Totally worth the extra drive time. If you're thinking of getting waxed, go to Stephanie!!! read more

This was my first time with Stephanie but not my first time waxing, since my previous esthetician moved far!! I am so glad I found Stephanie- she is so friendly, welcoming, and made me feel at ease during my appt. Her studio is clean, and a professional environment. She provided me with wipes and numbing spray before we began. We chatted it up which was a helpful distraction her technique is great- tries to make it as less painful as possible (for a Brazilian Wax!) I plan to use her services for the future! Thank you, Stephanie! read more

Stephanie is incredible!! I always feel so welcome when I walk in, she makes you feel so comfortable during the waxing and makes sure to keep the conversation going, I can talk to her like I've known her for years! She did very first Brazilian and I will never go anywhere else!! Thank you so much Stephanie read more

I cannot.......CANNOT stress this enough.....there is nothing easier than being 100% comfortable BEFORE you step in this studio!!! Stephanie you are an ANGEL in my opinion and THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for making my laugh before we even met!!! My anxiety was through the roof because it was my first time with her at her place and it had been a very long time since my last Brazilian. We cracked up and BS'ed the entire time (a whopping 10 minutes) and I feel AMAZING!!! Ladies you are truly missing out in a unique experience if you don't come here!! read more

Wow, I went here with my lady friend who knows Stephanie for 4 years now I just wanted to commit to eyebrows and nose hairs. I'm not sure how she talked me into this but it's a grand opening and we got a good deal on a Manzilian wax. I know, I really closed my eye the entire time but it didn't really hurt. A tattoo is more painful. So this is my first time waxing and it wasn't too bad. Thank you Stephanie for making me feel like more comfortable thank I thought I would be. This place is discrete and little hidden gem. This place is located in a busy shopping plaza but inside a nail shop. The only thing is that you will have to ask for "Stephanie" as this place is hard to find. It's very private and they have champagne and snacks. The towels are all super fresh and clean, there is a mini fridge and towel sterilizer in the room! "I don't usually wax but when I do I will come here." read more

Stephanie is simply the best. Not only is she supremely confident in her skillset, she is efficient. She will get you in and out of there with minimal discomfort. The services I selected were slotted for a full hour using her online scheduling system, and she had me walking out the door in half that time (and that included tons of chit chat). She is also just a fun and down-to-earth person who makes one feel at ease. Expertise + personality + reasonable rates is the trifecta. I don't see any reason to go anywhere else for my waxing needs read more
