I guess to be fair I should say this is my only experience in Brazilian waxing. I don't go anywhere else because I don't need to! I had my first one when I was 39 weeks-ginormously-pregnant-which means I couldn't even hardly do anything to prepare for what I thought would be debilitating pain. Well, boy o boy was I surprised. What a positive experience! I assumed that it would be awkward for all parties but it was super cool. Very professional but also laid back and easy to chit chat and make the time go by. It is fast and the pain is not bad (and I am a notorious wuss). Most importantly the results were awesome. I will never go back to my previous hair status knowing what I know now. I have been going here about once a month-ish for over a year. I have had a wax done by everyone. Valerie is my regular but if I am in a pinch for scheduling I go with any of the other gals. I have experienced great results by each. I tell anyone who is interested in this service about this place because I truly think it is the best around. One last thing--the finipil is really great. I always use it and never get the undesired but sometimes common after effects. read more

When I came here it was only my second time getting waxed; the first place I went didn't give me the greatest experience and I didn't finish my Brazilian... BUT BABY LET ME TELLL YOU, when I came here the whole experience was Great. Karen was so sweet and very easy to talk to, I was comfortable and was able to finish my whole Brazilian, she gave me a lot of proper after care tips that I didn't know and I'll definitely be going back read more

I'm a very new client of Valerie's and happy to be so! Knowing how much satisfaction I get after a full Brazilian, my boyfriend had surprised me with an appointment. Weary a first because of previous experiences with new estheticians, however, Valerie made me very comfortable. She is professional, mellow, a conversationalist, and down right hilarious. Aside from personality, she is very efficient in her abilities and quick. I am in and out in a reasonable time frame, and always leave happy. I highly recommend her services to anyone in the area! read more

Great experience for my first Brazilian Wax. Valerie came highly recommended and she did not disappoint. She made me feel very comfortable for my first time. I would highly recommend getting a wax by Valerie at Bare Down There! read more

I scheduled an appointment with Karen for a brazilian and a full arm wax. This is the best experience I have ever had waxing. Karen was super knowledgeable and made me feel really comfortable. They really care about their clients. I highly recommend this place to anyone who is thinking about getting waxed. read more

Love, this business. I have seen Valerie and Kari they are very professional and skilled. I always feel very comfortable during my appointments and leave very pleased with my service. Highly recommend any of these ladies. read more

Bare Down There Waxing - Waxing Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

I can't claim to be really experienced in this, but have been to one exceptional place in Bellingham that I use as my basis for comparison. First, the location. There were multiple rough-looking guys coming/going from upstairs office. They may be really nice but I'm not looking to chit-chat with biker dudes outside of my wax joint. Second, the procedure. Though she was friendly enough & appropriately "clinical," simple things like applying pressure just after the "rip" - which makes a big difference in the discomfort - wasn't done. Lastly, the results. I went completely bare (having only done that 2-3x before) & could see multiple hairs that were missed once home. Not cool. Though I might give the place another try, it would be with a different tech. read more

If I could rate a zero for there service I would. Dont know about the work because I didnt get through with talking to the Bitch on the phone. Booked two apointments and was UNABLE to cancel online and nobody ever answers the phone so with no way to cancel, I called to reschedule. The gal I talked to was extremely rude and said I could book if I paid for the missed apointments ...this place is laughable.....if you cant handle cancellations then have a place online for clients to cancel. The way I was treated I'm happy I didnt go here...Ill take my business elsewhere! read more

I have been seeing Amanda at BDT for over a year now. She makes any wax service comfortable and she's very efficient too! I have gotten pretty much everything waxed at some point... from Brazilian to legs to brows to arms, and have never been disappointed. Price points are also highly competitive and I doubt you would find a better price for the quality anywhere in Vancouver or Portland. The establishment itself is clean, trendy and comfortable. Parking is convenient and location is prime. I definitely recommend Amanda at Bare Down There for all your waxing needs! read more

I've been going to Valerie for years and she is the best in the biz! She is quick and efficient and I always leave with exactly what I've asked for. I see her monthly for both Brazilian and brow waxes and she is amazing at what she does... if she's ever gone when I need to get scheduled, I've always had great experiences with all of the other employees at Bare Down There as well. I highly recommend this business!!!! read more

First time going and seeing Karen today. I have been waxing for months before but decided to try someone new today. She instantly made me feel comfortable and talked to me the whole time so I wasn't focused on the waxing part of it all. The room had a heater so I wasn't too cold and I have a towel to cover up with. The wax she uses makes it way way less painful compared to others that have been used on me before. Also making an appointment was super easy! Will definitely be back again and I would highly recommend this place to any first time or experienced waxers. read more

Just got done with my first Brazilian. Great experience! I was nervous. Turns out I am not the only one to be nervous. Valerie was very polite and helpful as she reassured me as we went thru the process. Couldn't be happier! read more

Responsive and accessible, my new best wax experience! Smooth and easy, this is the best.

For a first time waxer, my worries were put to ease by the comfortable atmosphere and friendly staff. Karen is so wonderful and completely hilarious, that it makes the whole experience enjoyable! Definitely would recommend this place to any first time Brazilianers and anyone wanting a new place! Two thumbs way up! read more

I absolutely love love love Bare Down There Waxing!!!! I always go to Karen. She is the best! She makes me feel so comfortable and relaxed. She always answers every question I have and is a pleasure to talk to. I would definitely recommend coming to see Karen. read more

Such a great Brazilian wax experience! I had Karen and she was amazing, super friendly and definitely helped distract from the pain with breathing and good conversation. Even so, the pain wasn't even all that bad and she was really efficient, especially since it had been so long since I'd had a wax. She did a great job too, everything down there looks fresh and clean :) I already have my next appointment scheduled and they can count on my business for all future waxing needs. read more

Okay - so I haven't written a review in years on yelp, but after going to Bare Down there Waxing I felt compelled. Amanda was awesome! Even though you are showing your "bits" you somehow feel comfortable. And the pain was minimal at best. Thank you Amanda! read more

Valerie and Anna are great! They are the best at making you feel at ease. I actually look forward to my appointments. I have been a client since November, can't imagine going anywhere else. Make sure to pick up a Bikini Kitty kit, to help prevent ingrown hair. read more

I am always nervous to entrust my eyebrows to a new esthetician but was in Vancouver visiting family last August and booked an appointment with Tabitha. She waxed and shaped my eyebrows so beautifully that I now make appointments with her whenever I am visiting from Seattle. She is fun and comfortable to be around. Tabitha also uses a high quality wax. I have super sensitive skin but have not had any issues after receiving brow and lip treatments. Highly recommend Tabitha and Bare Down There! read more

Loved this place, so professional, thorough and fast. It really was the best waxing I have ever had, and I work at a Day Spa, so that says quite a bit! read more

As an Esthetician, I was doing my own Brazilians and well pregnancy hindered that ability I finally gave in and looked for a place to do mine, dreading having to pay someone else to do it.... I found BDTW on Nufree's site, made an appt. got my wax done, I have the most sensitive skin and the wax they use is awesome and all the girls did amazing, to the point that even after I had the baby and was able to see down there again I still kept going and after almost a year of seeing these girls, I am honored to say that I now work here!!! read more

I went in to see Kari for my appointment and was so happy with the results. It had been a long time since my last appointment so I was nervous. She put me at ease and we had great conversation throughout the session. The environment was great and she was extremely professional. I will definitely be back for my next appointment! read more

Lost a Super Bowl bet with my girlfriend and suddenly found myself on the business end of my first Brazilian wax. As might be expected, I was a little anxious. Turns out my anxiety was misplaced. Amanda was fantastic. Friendly, engaging and efficient the job was done with minimal discomfort. As a middle aged male, it was a much better experience than I ever imagined it could be. read more

I absolutely love this place every time I go I get excellent service and resaults. I highly recommend this place and with their online booking it makes it really convienient to book and appointment. read more

As a 1st timer, Amanda was great at making me feel comfortable. Professional and funny! Will definitely be back. read more

First time going into have a Brazilian done. Anna Was very flexible when scheduling my appointment at the last minute. Really easy to find location. A friend of mine told me about this salon and I'm glad she did. Affordable prices. Knowledge before and after care appreciated that. Anna is a very spunky pleasant gal. I appreciated the way she made me feel very comfortable while doing the service. I will be definitely returning for my future waxing needs. read more

Karen is amazing! It was my first time and she made it much more bearable than expected! There was only a couple spots that actually hurt, the rest was a piece of cake. Definitely going back! read more

Just simply amazing!!! I called as a pretty much last minute appointment before my vacation and Anna managed to get me in there to rip out some hair! All I have to say is between the silly conversation bouncing all over the place to the clean, soothing atmosphere, I felt so comfortable and it was not as awkward as my first time getting waxed at all!! (Which was elsewhere). This is my first yelp recommendation because I am usually lazy about these things but how well things turned out made me HAVE to review!! Not only was the procedure quick and expertly done, the before and after care explained to me was in depth and easy to remember! I have not met any of the other fine people there, but I can say that the quirky and fun Anna is highly recommended! read more

I was pleasantly surprised by this place! Usually I schlep into Portland, but I was short on time this week and looked for a place in Vancouver. I saw Amanda who gave me a fantastic wax, she is very quick efficient waxer... Also very funny and professional. I will definitely be back again! read more

I spoke with the Washington state board today after I received your reply. They told me that it did not matter that the product is not a paraffin or depilatory wax double dipping is still not allowed. I talked with the company of the product you use and while they said they approve of double dipping with their product if the state board does not allow double dipping in wax then you can not with their product. They said that sates still consider their product to be a wax even though they do not consider their product to be a wax. read more

I've been going here for over 5 years now and Amanda Westmont is my esthetician. I can't recommend her highly enough. She is thorough, professional, and a total sweetheart. She made me feel at ease from minute one and has always done an exceptional job. I am a customer for life and cannot imagine going anywhere else for waxing service. read more

Anna is so fast and professional! So quick that you don't have time to say ouch. Your clothes are back on b4 the tears are even dry. Will be back! read more

I have seen Amanda now for about a year. Of course getting a Brazilian wax is never fun but she makes it the best it can be. She knows what she is doing and caters to her clients differently based on personality. She gives you time to breathe but doesn't let it drag on forever. Some people (not me) may feel uncomfortable with someone being so close up in their "business" but she is very professional. It's like a doctor in the sense that she sees that all the time and it is just her job. She is very sweet and talks to you the whole time, kind of relaxes you as much as that's possible. She is also informative about aftercare and how the hair growth process works, being in the medical field I already knew this but if I didn't it would be very useful for her to inform me. Overall an excellent experience! I can't speak for any of the other ladies there but I am sure they are fantastic! I can also not speak for other kinds of waxes either, for I have only had Brazilians done there, but I'm sure they rock at everything! :) read more

OK wax. I had gone there for a few months in a row for Brazilians, but I always had grow out within a few days if not the next day. And I always walked out bow legged and painful afterwards. I love the people there though, all of the girls are very easy to talk to and are super relatable. I ended up switching to Waxing Etc. and she does a MUCH better job waxing wise. Hair stays away for 4 weeks before I get grow back and my crotch isn't on fire when I leave. read more
