Stripped Wax Bar

Stripped Wax Bar in Yaletown is perfection! Clean and modern design, very reasonably priced, friendly staff and all the offerings!
I came in for a Brazilian wax with a trainee (Katie) and it was the most pain-​free experience I have ever had. Katie was clearly experienced; she worked quickly, was super friendly, very informative with before and after care and somehow managed to make the experience so minimally painful that I could swear she was magic. The final product was thorough and I left happily pain and hair free! Thanks Katie & Stripped Wax Bar.

This is the only place I go to get my waxing done. The location is located close to my home, it’s very clean, the front desk ladies are super nice and the price is super reasonable! I always book my wax appointments with Gloria — she is very friendly, puts you at ease, is super quick and very thorough.
I recommend this place.

I go to Gloria. She’s awesome! Friendly, professional and thorough. I’ve never left disappointed. I’m always greeted with a warm smile at the front desk too. Recommend this place to anyone!

Awesome. Everyone that works here is always so friendly and nice, I love it. I’ve seen Gloria a few times and Gabriella. They’re both amazing. They know how to work quickly and do a great job!
I would definitely recommend Stripped to anyone thinking about waxing.

I decided to go based on the reviews here and I am so happy I did! My appointment was with Linda who was friendly and professional. It was my first time getting waxed so I was a bit nervous but she was very helpful and patient in explaining everything. She was also great at checking in and making sure I was comfortable. The entire appointment didn’t last long at all and I’m definitely going back!

Go see Linda! :)

I tried this place because I had a present (gift card) from a friend. Made an appointment earlier in the day that I wanted to check this place out.
The atmosphere and business is very clean. Organized, tidy and modern.
Staff are nice and professional.
The pros: it didn’t take long, efficient, same day appointment made.
Cons: I could almost hear the conversation from the room next door, the tweezing left some tiny marks but I guess that is what happens if you have shorties.
Not a bad place. Price is on par with other establishments ~ Men apparently come here too! cool.

They were very accommodating to the appointment time that i wanted which was great. I was greeted by the receptionist who was very nice and didnt rush me even though i was the last appointment of the day.
I dont remember the name of the lady that waxed me but she was oriental and probably in her late 30s. She knew what she was doing but that also made her very insensitive to the amount of pain that I was going through for my Brazilian. I get them done very often but it still hurts as everybody knows. She didnt let me take breathers between her pulls and just went on like a machine.
If you are sensitive down there or are coming in for your first time I would recommend going down the street.
My experience was made better only by the welcoming and warm receptionist. For the wax i would probably not return.

Today was my first time at stripped and my god was it awful. I understand I went there at the end of the day (6:40) and people want to get home but it’s not an excuse for rushing a job and being rude. The lady that did my lower leg wax was unbelievably rude. I told her twice to watch out for the wax that was dripping everywhere on my legs and she flatly ignored me. It was painful and uncomfortable the whole time, when she was done, she left the room without saying anything, and I still had wax on my legs. The one star goes to the lady at the front that was very cordial and polite.

I’ve gotten a few Brazilians at Stripped and always had good experiences. But I got a wax from Linda today that blew me away! Probably the quickest wax I’ve ever gotten and as pain-​free as possible. Highly recommend booking an appt with Linda!

I have been going to see lovely Linda T at Stripped for a few years. She is simply the best, I am in and out in lighting fast speed. She is great to talk to and the back wax is over before I know it. no muss no fuss and little discomfort.
I would highly recommend her and stripped for all your waxing needs.

I have been religiously going to stripped for the past four years. They excel at making sure you are comfortable with the atmosphere and services they provide. I ALWAYS see Linda. She’s the BEST! I’ve sent family and friends her way ever since I had my very first appointment. I wouldn’t go anywhere else! As a result of sending everyone I know they wouldn’t either! Keep up the good work ladies!

Lisa did an amaaazing job, was quick, friendly and had over 14 years of experience. Super happy!

I think this is the most thorough wax I’ve ever had, and the lady who did it (Gabriella?) was worried she wasn’t able to get everything because I’d not left things long enough to grow. She was super fast and friendly. Inexpensive for Yaletown too. I’ll be back!

WOW! Gabrielle is amazing. What a pleasant surprise to be waxed so thoroughly and gently. The salon was sparkling, there was no double dipping and above all, virtually no pain. Gabrielle, you have just gained another customer. Keep up the good work! Excellent!!!

I will never ever go to another place to get waxed. By far the best service and nicest facilities I’ve ever been to. Staff are extremely thorough and knowledgeable. And there is no awkward silence while they wax your areas below. They make things super easy and they are also super affordable.
Thanks for the amazing service!

I’ve tried many waxing salons around Downtown based on Unilocal Reviews and Stripped Wax Bar is by far the best experience I’ve ever had!
The place is very clean and the staff is friendly and welcoming.
I get everything done with Linda (Brazilian, full legs, lower back, underarms and arms) and she is amazing! She’s very quick, has never left any hair and even gets the in-​grown ones. I have less in-​grown hairs after the Brazilians with her and I don’t need to go as frequently as my hair doesn’t grow back until 2.5 weeks after waxing whereas before after the first week it would start growing.
I’m currently pregnant and even though there are many positions my pregnant belly doesn’t allow me to be in, Linda is very sweet and understanding and manages to still get it all!
I definitely recommend this place!

I am not sure why the old Yaletown location closed but I am liking the new location. The overall impression of the interior sign is clean, simple, and chic. The high ceiling makes the space feel extra airy and bright. This location is so new you can still smell the new paint.
All the staff I have encountered were friendly and courteous from the front desk girl, to the aesthetician who pointed me to the right direction of the washroom, and to the aestheticians who provided services on me.
I’ve been here for an underarm and a Brazilian wax on two separate occasions. I forgot the name of the first girl who waxed me but I certainly remember Gloria, who did my Brazilian. She was memorable because she worked clean and fast. Most of all, she commiserated my pain. She was making small talks with me to distract my pain at the same time without being wordy or obliged.
I used to go to Linda’s Urban Spa (old and new location). I gave the Stripped Wax Bar a try because it is conveniently located close to my work and the prices are decent. I can’t believe I had to pay an annual membership fee in order to receive waxing services at a discount which are priced similarly to that of the Stripped Wax Bar but the Stripped Bar doesn’t even have an annual membership fee. I feel ripped off by Linda’s and don’t think I’ll go back.
I would recommend Stripped Wax Bar at the new Yaletown location.
