About

Bare Skin has operated in Alexandria since 2012 and describes itself as a waxing-only business, with no nails, hair services or fillers. The studio is a short walk from King Street, and street and garage parking is available nearby. It is open seven days a week with evening hours on most weekdays: Monday 10am to 6pm, Tuesday and Wednesday 10am to 8pm, Thursday 10am to 9pm, Friday 10am to 8pm, Saturday 10am to 6pm and Sunday 12pm to 7pm. The studio serves clients from Alexandria, Arlington, Washington DC, Fairfax and Maryland.

Each waxing client has a private room with the door closed, and only one client is served at a time, including men's waxing. The studio uses a premium hard wax that grips the hair rather than the skin. A fresh applicator is used each time it touches the skin, and wax is never double-dipped. Brazilian waxing is done with warm hard wax in small sections, without cloth strips, after a pre-wax oil and followed by a calming gel. The stated aim is a pain-free, relaxing visit with gentle technique. Men's hair longer than half an inch is trimmed at no charge before waxing.

Beyond waxing, the studio offers brow services such as waxing and shaping, tinting, tweezing and lamination, along with lash lifts, tints and extensions. Brow appointments begin with a discussion of the desired shape. The facial menu runs about an hour, with the Expert Derma Peel taking 90 minutes. Facial prices are introductory rates for the new menu and are expected to rise. Brows and lashes can be added to a facial in the same visit. Booking is online, with new clients receiving 20% off their first wax or visit.

The studio aims for a gentle, pain-free waxing experience and follows strict hygiene practices, including a fresh applicator each time and no double-dipping. Every esthetician is stated to be licensed and trained on the studio's technique before taking a client.

The studio occupies a historic rowhouse in Old Town Alexandria, with private treatment rooms.
