Wax Bar LA

I used to get waxed at a nail salon. Yes bad idea! Anyway after some issues I researched and found this place. It has amazing reviews so I thought okay let’s give it a shot. Best decision I have ever made! Alison is extremely nice and very informative. She loves her job and does a great job. This was the most painless wax I’ve ever received. She’s amazing and I completely recommend this place. I definitely plan on trying out a facial too.

I stumbled across this gem when I did a search for «waxing» in La Canada a while back. My eyebrows were in desperate need of some TLC, so I called and made a last minute appointment. Alison fit me in that day, right after work.
Not only was Alison great because she was kind enough to squeeze me in, but when you’re lying on that chair getting hair ripped out of your skin, she’s comforting and makes the whole experience feel relatively painless. She’s easy to talk to, funny and great at her job. What more could you want?
I’ve started seeing her regularly and I’m very happy with my appointments and my eyebrows (as well as my hairless upper lip and sideburns).

Patti and Alison are both super nice, they always try to help match my schedule. The wax barely hurts compared to other places that I’ve been. Patti helps you feel relaxed and strikes up a convo so it’s not super awkward during the wax.

2^nd time here after deciding to go for a Brazilian. Currently pregnant and it gets to the point maintenence is a bit hard to keep up. Looked around for someone local and had read previous reviews. Alison is great, friendly, and quick and professional at what she does. You feel comfortable and I will keep coming back. Happy to find such a great place.

Had the best Brazilian from Alison Bloom she got all the hair without breaking it and she even told me how to care afterwards!!! She’s the best and has so much experience in waxing she’s way better than my other waxer at City Salon & Spa for a Brazilian!!! And it was to me painless I didn’t flinch or anything!!! Alison was so professional and she makes you feel so comfortable while getting the wax done and if it’s your very first time she even does a test strip for you so know how it will feel. It was so quick and a total breeze, she’s def open to answer any questions you may have about waxing so def don’t be afraid to ask.

There is no place I’d go except here for any waxing. Allison is the most amazing woman who makes sure you are happy and comfortable and she really takes her time with her work to make sure you feel as beautiful as possible.

I needed to make a very last minute waxing appointment the day before I was leaving for my birthday vacay in Palm Springs.
I Unilocaled and called Wax Bar and left a vm. Alison texted me an hour later and said she can accommodate me later in the day! Woohoo! But I didn’t have a babysitter for my baby so I asked if I can bring her. She said «no problem»! It was such a relief.
When I got to the salon, Alison was so nice and worked around my stroller and baby. She was really great about entertaining her too :) It was such an amazing experience.
As for the waxing, I got the Brazilian and Alison has great technique and super fast. I was in and out in under 20 minutes and that was with wrangling my baby too. I will definitely be returning.

Allison is the best!!! She is my go to girl for bikini waxes, will not go to anyone but her:)

Alison is AMAZING! She was so accommodating to my last minute wax request. She was so friendly and made me feel right at home! I will absolutely be going back to her, and no one else ever again!

I went to Alison for my first Brazilian and I was scared to say the least! She was really sweet when I made my appointment with her on the phone and told me to take some asprin 30 minutes before my appointment to help ease the pain and it helped. I was expecting a lot more pain (especially after watching YouTube videos) but it wasn’t nearly as bad as that. Alison talked to me through it and the distraction helped.
Of course it’s a little awkward if you aren’t used to it but she’s very professional and quick. I still go to her and am very satisfied with the results.

Alison = awesome
Before my wax, Alison took her time to explain medication interactions and waxing, which was never brought up to me from past waxers. Now I know why my area feels super sensitive when I get waxed.
The room where I got waxed was nicely lit and smelled lovely with the burning fragrant candles. The table where you lay for the wax is super comfortable and she puts down a clean sheet (not wax paper) on the table. When you lay down, you stare up at a cute & chic light fixture, which I loved.
I got my best wax ever, very thorough and clean. It’s a bit pricey but it’s worth it. Since I was a first time customer, she gave me a 15% discount, which was sweet.
I’ll go back to Alison for sure!
FYI, she takes credit cards and parking is plentiful in the back.

I just want to say that I am EXTREMELY happy with my Brazilian wax by Allison. I wanted to wait 4 weeks after my wax to Unilocal her so I could really see the results before judging. I used to go to Pink Cheeks (various people would wax me) and they would wax off a HUGE section at one time and it hurt SO bad. Allison used smaller strips and literally it is nearly painless. At Pink Cheeks my hair would grow back in so much after 4 weeks, I looked like I have never waxed before. With Allison I can still wear a bikini at the beach after 4 weeks! I really can’t believe how good she is. Allison is gentle and amazing at what she does. I highly recommend her.

I totally recommend going with Allison. She is amazing. She was really quick and it was the least amount of pain I’ve ever felt while getting a brazilian. I never write reviews but I feel like all the other reviews lead me to this place and I hope mine does the same for someone else.

Alison is amazing! I had my first waxing today and she made it as comfortable as possible. I cannot stress enough how professional and friendly she is! Thank you Alison!

Wonderful! I was really nervous but the location was very clean and she was sweet, discreet and efficient.

Since when does having all the hairs on your body savagely ripped off make you feel like a pampered princess? Since Allison! I agree with all of these reviews. Professional, nice, perfect amount of chit chat that made me feel more like a pal than a client. She managed to squeeze me in at the last minute and even called me back when she had a cancellation. And the cost was soooo reasonable. I will definitely be a repeat customer!

By far the best waxing experience I’ve had! First off parking is perfectly easy to find, which is a plus in my book. Allison is AMAZING (yes the caps was needed). I have never felt more comfortable while getting a wax, at other places I feel awkward and embarrassed about getting a brazilian wax but not with Allison.
I don’t know how she does it, but it is as painless as it can possibly get with a brazilian wax and this is where I tell people to go.
One memorable experience I had with Allison was when I needed a last-​minute appointment like maybe 2 – 3 hours in advance. She was very accommodating to the time I wanted and she was able to move around some scheduling to make it happen.
Love it here!

I came to Wax Bar LA for my first Brazillian and couldn’t be happier with my experience.
Allison was so nice and helpful, and she talked me through the whole process, explaining what to anticipate. She made sure I was comfortable, and she made the fully bare and awkward situation. pretty bearable. The pain was surprisingly minimal, due to her skillful techniques and well tempered wax.
Wax Bar is in a boutique spa, so it’s very small, but very clean and quiet. The only downside to the size is that it can be hard to miss while driving if you don’t know where to look. Otherwise parking was plentiful, price was moderate (especially with the first time discount), and everything about my experience was great. I’d highly recommend it to anyone.

It’s not easy to trust your delicate lady bits to a complete stranger, especially one who spreads hot, melted wax over your skin only to rip out all the hairs by its roots.
I’ve been getting waxed at the same place for years, straying only once to give a new place a chance (it was highly rated on Unilocal). What a horrible mistake! That experience left me traumatized from wanting to venture out and trying someplace new.
But after not being able to get an appointment at my usual place, AGAIN, I decided to hit up Unilocal to research my other options. I found Wax Bar LA and called on a Thursday to snag an appointment for Monday afternoon with Allison.
My experience at Wax Bar LA was awesome. Allison was sweet and kept up the conversation enough to distract me from the pain. Which, by the way, was minimal. She uses a special wax for sensitive skin and it was by far the least painful wax I’ve gotten.
Parking was plentiful, and location was easy to find. Clean, nice, and located inside a day spa. Only thing is that she doesn’t take credit cards to date so be sure to bring some cash. I have found my new waxing place!

This place is a great little find. It’s small, private and clean. I love the easy parking and I’m always in and out in a flash. Thanks Wax Bar.
