I recently discovered a great “waxing” salon in Makati. And I’m so excited to share it with you guys.
Now that summer is here and we’re all off to the beach, a good waxing salon is every girl’s best friend. (And I can hear a lot agreements out there.)

Last month, a day before the #FabSkye turned two, our little family went to Glorietta 5 for Tatay’s hair cut. He wants it done at Bench Fix, so off we go. On our way there, I passed by this waxing salon. My legs need waxing already and I was planning to wear shorts for the #FabSkye’s party so I checked it out.

You see, I frequent this cheap waxing salon in SM Manila. It’s cheap, it does the job and so I’m okay with it. Cold waxing is not for me, I always get irritations, so Lay Bare is out of the picture. I am a hot wax kind of girl.

I was trying to read their list of services from the outside but the very nice receptionist went out and gave me a flyer. I am nuts with great customer service and that little gesture made me ask them out.

Apparently Barenaked Body Sugaring Salon is not our typical waxing place. They actually offer sugaring and not waxing. Sugaring is the method of removing unwanted hair using sugar paste. They are 100% natural and edible, yes you can eat it like tootsie roll. I was a bit hesitant to try it because as I’ve said, I am not a cold wax type of girl. But then the receptionist explained to me all about sugaring and I was convinced to try it out. I saw a nice, comprehensive explanation of sugaring on their website that you can check out, head over here.

Anyway I am sooooo glad I did try it out because I am sooooo happy with the result.

My legs are super smooth. And the smoothness lasts for more than a week. After that, fine hairs start to grow so it’s still not yucky. That’s definitely a proof that they we’re able to remove the hairs from the roots.

It’s been more than a month now since I had my legs done and I badly need a wax again. But I noticed that my hair are a bit finer and I have less ingrown hair. Yey! Ingrown hairs are actually a huge problem of mine. I have super sensitive skin and my ingrown hairs would sometimes lead to irritation. Looks like sugaring is what my skin needs.

They are super affordable too. I only paid 450php for my half-leg sugaring service. You can check out their rates on their website for reference.

The place is also very clean. And they are very hygienic. The attendants wear mask and the bed sheets are all mabango. You could really tell that they are particular with hygiene, so yey!

And last but not the least, everyone is sooo nice!

She’s the one who did my sugaring and she’s very nice. We had a great conversation and she’s very gentle. You could also tell that they are well trained because ate know her stuff. She explained to me everything about sugaring and even gave me tips on my ingrown hair issues. I love everyone at Barenaked!

I am definitely coming back. And I will try their Brazilian service. Yeps, I am finally doing Brazilian. I’ll share with you my experience, okay?

Go and try them out, let me know what you think!
