My first waxing... I'm a big baby But she wouldn't let me whine about it. It was immediately…read moreobvious her level of experience was beyond what I would have gotten with these other day spas. I shopped around-not for price but for quality. It wasn't rushed but fast and efficient and followed up by an amazing massage. You can't get this special attention elsewhere and very reasonably priced.. Highly recommend.

Went in for a father's day massage courtesy of my family, my wife asked for a foot and body but wad…read moretold she cant so this. They prepaid and the masseuse GAVE HERSELF A TIP at this time, without asking my wife. I showed up early to an empty lobbg and gave my stamped card to her. She commented that my family must of been the one with all the kids who came in, came off a little RUDE how it was delivered but ignored it. I use to get weekly massages but haven't had one in about 6months so this was a big treat for myself. She leads me to a room, says to get ready leaves the room but keeps the door open? I lay down on what seemed to be a piece of plywood with a small opening for my face, which leaves me LAYING MY CHIN ON WOOD, with the lack of cushion or space for my face. She comes in with her SPEAKER and ask if I want it soft or hard, I say hard since its been so long. Since I say hard she says she is going to walk on my back, AWESOME ive always enjoyed a good Ashiatsu massage. She steps on my back for a lil bit but then starts to dig into my thighs, ive had many Ashiatsu massages she was NOT kneading my muscles just PUSHING hard into them. Was pretty UNCOMFORTABLE but she stopped that pretty quickly, and this is where it got worse. She used multiple tools she had, to very forcefully push and pull my muscles, and used a CHEAP knock off wheel massager that did not roll. So she pretty much just rubbed a plastic stick on my back, pushing and pulling my skin and not much doing anything for my sore muscles. She then switched to what felt like a guasha tool, and started doing my arms and legs. My body RECOILED involuntarily multiple times, then she asked if it was okay, I grunted and she continued. In my previous experiences when my body would recoil this way masseuse would change their approach but she did not. She continued the same way, until she said she was done and I told her my shoulder was still in alot of pain, so she did my shoulder a bit more. She said thank you and left, this is when I noticed it had only been 50 MINUTES since she lead me to the room, I was done at this point and did not care to be man handled anymore with no relief to my muscles. Overall a terrible experience where she tipped herself, I laid on a uncomfortable "table", left me bruised, cut my time short and left her self a near 50% tip. Do not recommend

Melissa was warm and friendly without being intrusive or awkward and explained the process very thoroughly and to the point. The service itself was what I expected it to be (sugaring/waxing = hair being ripped from follicles, so that's never a fun time), but she made sure I was comfortable and even had me laughing more than a few times. The studio is clean - like sparkling clean and intimate without being cramped. She also offers a great selection of facials and I'll be booking one soon. I've found my new spot for skin care services!

Excellent!! I have been wanting to try a Brazilian for years and have been a little nervous to do…read moreso. I am heading out to a tropical vacation and decided to finally get one. Looked on Yelp and Olympia Wax Bar has amazing reviews, especially for Pamalee. I made an online appt which was super easy as their website and reservation system is very user friendly and simple to use. I received reminders leading up to the day of my appt which I appreciated. The spa is very clean, minimalistic, and welcoming. I loved all the humorous signs and products they offer. Pamalee was on time and very nice to talk to. She made me feel very comfortable and eased my nerves. I have never had a Brazilian so I don't know what to compare it with but based on how painful everyone says it is I would say she is amazing because, although not comfortable, the pain was relatively quick and was short lived. Pamalee is a professional and has been waxing a long time and it shows in how she explained things, how efficient she was, and how comfortable she made me feel in what could be a vulnerable and embarrassing procedure. The prices seemed on par with normal prices in the area for similar services. Easy parking. The business is right next to Outback Steakhouse. Lots of appointment times in the convenient hours they are open. Especially if you book in advance. All told, I am a fan! I'll be back next time I need some waxing done! Yelp comes through once again!

I tried contacting a few people but Christina Petrole at Bare was the only one who returned my calls and was willing to work with my schedule. She's very kind and understanding, especially with all the cancellations I had to do. Her office is gorgeous, the entire spot is nicely decorated covered in beautiful artwork. Every time I walk in I automatically feel at ease from the set-up, to the music, and her overall presence. I love coming here and I always leave with the cutest head wraps! She also offers you water right when you walk in and that always helps relax me. At first, the only service I came here for was a Brazilian wax, now I come here and do my legs and lips as well! Christina does such a great a job, I can't help but purchase more services from her. I waxed my legs one time before and it wasn't such a good experience, but when Christina does it, you can't even tell! Waxing my upper lip has been amazing too! I swear, anything she touches, doesn't hurt. If you ask me, that's VERY important when looking for a great wax person!!!

I figured I'd reschedule and try and figure out how to get in when I called them , no big deal.

The second time was insanely long and my hair got fried but I was planning to give a third time because I alway give places 3 tries. Well I just called (same day as my appointment) to reschedule because of personal reasons (they never asked and since it's personal I wasn't open to share unless asked) and they told me since it's within their cancellation window they will be charging me the full $185 amount for me to not get my hair done. This place wasn't even good let alone great in order to come back. Also, my hair was always well into the $300 and I do baby lights. I did toner once and $300+ for a level 1 is insane!! I will never be returning.
