I've been getting waxed at Dare to Go Bare for over 4 years and would not dream of going anywhere else! I started waxing about 10 years prior to discovering this business and it is the cleanest, friendliest and highest quality choice. My appointments are always with Rachel, she is absolutely top notch at waxing and is very thorough and gentle. She makes the process as easy as possible and I honestly look forward to our monthly visits. I greatly appreciate how easy it is to schedule upcoming appointments via text. I get a prompt response and it's easy to get the day and time that works for me. The business is cheery, cute and very clean. I can't say enough nice things about it and would recommend it to anyone who wants quality service. 10 out of 10! read more

I been coming here for years . This past week I came to my regular monthly appointment and the business was closed. I have no idea what happen or what because I called their business number left voicemail and text message and no call back today is Saturday. If anyone knows what's going on leave a comment. read more

Dare 2 Go Bare - How cute is their waiting room !! - Skin Care Near Me - Fresno, California

Solely based on professionalism and time management I should have regarded the other reviews on this issue. Thought that since I officially got an initial response from someone that all was well. Wrong. Like the others, I received the notifications, even the 15 mins till your appt one. I arrived 15 mins prior thinking I'd have to fill out paperwork or screening if some sort. Ring the doorbell, no answer. Wait about 8 mins. Ring again, still nothing. Decide to wait till it's closer to my actual appt time. Long story short, after txting another number with no response, and more ringing i oh f the doorbell I leave. That's more than 15 mins after my official appt time. Finally receive a txt back. So disappointed in the exchange. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. read more

So I've never had a brazillian wax before, so you start asking your friends their experiences. My friends would tell me it's so painful the first time but gets better and better each time. So I walk in scared, I meet my waxer Bianca. She was so nice and put me at ease. It wasn't painful at all. Some tender spots but very tolerable. I would definitely recommend this place. The only downside was they don't answer the phones always. I was able to reach them via text message though. read more

Listen to the reviews and do not come here!!! After being a member here for 4 years, I have finally cancelled my membership. Not only has the service significantly declined since reopening after the pandemic, the front desk is unprofessional and the way they handle situations is abominable. Most of their estheticians have left and it's for a reason. In the past year, there has been multiple times my appointment has been last minute rescheduled to the point where it gets pushed to the next month and services are missed (take it, services are automatically charged the 1st of each month, whether you receive your service or not). Last week, my appointment was cancelled on the spot when I went to check in (they had sent me a text cancelling my 2pm appointment at 1:56 pm when I was walking through the door). They offered to reschedule my appointment for this week, however, the new appointment was never actually put in the books. I text the salon to confirm my supposed appointment so I wouldn't have to waste my time driving there today, the day of my reschedule, where I was informed I didn't actually have an appointment. I sent screenshots and reminded them I had requested to cancel my membership starting July, in person and via email, where they asked me to confirm the email I had sent this request to. We came to a resolution and Cecilia (front desk) still text me later on asking me, again, about the situation and claiming I had no showed an appointment (that was also a reschedule with text proof), where I had to YET AGAIN explain myself, send screenshot proof (seriously, if you decide to come here, keep all text evidence), and exhaustingly argue for the second time in the day. I felt the need to ask for proof that my card was refunded and that my membership was actually cancelled so I wouldn't have to be questioned about this situation yet again next month. It makes me sad that the service has deteriorated so terribly because they had so many excellent estheticians at one point and this was always the place I recommend to my friends and now I can't say I would recommend this place to anyone. read more

Horrible! The owner called me to my cell phone after I reviewed this & texted me JUST STRAIGHT UP HARRASING ME. FIRST off I was exceedingly kind to this business OVERLY. When covid hit they texted me on my cell phone if they could continue to charge this was in March 2020, because I want to support small businesses I said ok sure,as they ensured me that later they'd make it up with either products or services. Well they did not open up until the summer time (around that). Then they provided services for about 2 or 3 months up until November. They never made up anything they said they do... then they upped the price to 45 dollars, and kept charging my visa card in December & on. I had to call Bank of America, I spoke to the fraud department which investigated it & reimbursed me. Why because this business failed to provide services, the phone number they have online they don't answer, they have different numbers they use. I had to go through the trouble if going without a visa card. & this lady Valerie has the ODASITY to call me upset on my cellphone from this review saying that I failed their contract? Really! The contract never said I be ripped of & that I'd have to give a monthly payment for free, NO THEY BROKE THE CONTRACT.in a period of a day or less I've been-called, texted on my phone & also messaged on here.This is a shame. I feel so harassed & my privacy so invaded. Really what us nect from this business. They also messaged me that they were going to charge me a late fee ! This Is awful. The nerve! just save yourself this headache & the harassment of these ppl. read more

D2GB is the best and i recommend them to all my friends. i started coming here in February, i had never been waxed before so i was definitely nervous but my first experience was everything and more. i've now had three waxes there. the salon is so cute and the girls at the front desk are always sweethearts. they are also very good with scheduling, they'll work with your schedule. Rachel is THE BEST!! i've been going to her since my first wax and she never lets me down. she does a very thorough job. she makes sure she gets every hair and she's gentle! she's so sweet and makes sure you're comfortable at all times. i cant say enough great things about her. i look forward to coming here to get waxed every month. a little bit of pain is worth the great results. read more

I scheduled an appointment via text and was given their availability. I went ahead and selected my preferred time, and received a text saying I'm all set. Leading up to my appointment, I also received automated texts regarding my appointment. I confirmed those as well. The day of my appointment, I show up 15 minutes early and the door is locked, the lights are off, and no one is responding to my calls or texts. What a shame. I took time off work and drove out of my way to come get my wax done. Why confirm appointments if you forget to even service your clients? Very unprofessional. Learn to respect people's time. I'll be taking my services elsewhere read more

I've Been a dare doll going on 6 yrs && there's no other place I'd trust w/ this beauty !!! Jacqueline is the best !!! She always cools my skin down w/ a cooling wand after my wax! She's fast, accurate, & fun!!! Tiffany & Jada are great receptionists!!! They always have an awesome attitude!! If you're looking for a personable, intimate, fun, & comfortable vibe to get your kitty pretty DARE 2 GO BARE IS THE PLACE!!! read more

DARE 2 GO BARE IS THE SPOT!! My sister got me a groupon for this place & I was honestly sooo nervous and anxious going into my first waxing. I had Jaclyn greet me so kindly and made me feel so comfortable! Her waxes were painless! And I'm pretty sure we knew each other in a past life. Lol I even signed up for monthly annual waxes. The place also conveniently sends texts & has their own house made scrubs. By far best experience!! Thank you dare 2 go bare and Jaclyn!! read more

At the salon, you will be greeted by the warmest of smiles, the cutest decor, cleanliness and the best hospitality a Fresno wax salon has to offer. Its a small, locally owned business and also family operated! The owner, Val, cares so much about her clientele and treats everyone like family! The dare doll team is the best girl group around and they really work hard to ensure you have the best wax and see the results you're wishing to obtain! BTW the OMG scrub is to die for!! Completely life changing and they've just added a Yoni Steam! Definitely reccomend!! read more

These are some amazing Esthetician's. They are very knowledgeable and very kind. They make you feel comfortable and are in compliance by wearing mask and having their guest wear mask. I started as a Grouponer and they are now stuck with me. read more

I've been a customer here for the last 5+ years and the business is not as good as it once was. There is a high turnover of estheticians leaving no room for familiarity. After having terrible experiences with them, I found one waxer I like and stuck with her. Month after month there's been an issue in scheduling that they've tried to redirect me to another esthetician in house and I've politely declined due to personal reasons. Today my appointment was scheduled for 1230, with my fav might I add, and by 1245 I had to ask the new receptionist how much longer before I'd be seen. She let me know they were wrapping up and that I'd be seeing someone else today. I was upset because this could've been brought to my attention prior to the appointment or at check in. I let her know I'd like to reschedule. The owner interjects into the conversation and offers to wax me herself to which i declined. She let me know that this is her spa, I can't choose who I want, and that the esthetician I prefer is burnt out. These are not my issues. I decided to terminate my membership and asked if I can have a credit to my account since the appointment never occurred. The owner said no which is ironic because let a member show up to an appointment late and it'll be an issue. The owner was not receptive to any constructive criticism I tried to provide from a customers standpoint and instead reiterated that it's her spa. Would not recommend due to unprofessionalism, high turnover rate, and lack of concern for customers preferences. read more

The owner is very unprofessional in dealing with mistakes made for billing on her behalf. She wanted to over talk me just to notify me that she's not willing to work anything out with me. She's very petty and childish as a "business owner". I'll never go there again based on the way she handled this situation. Her workers are GREAT !!! SHE IS HORRIBLY RUDE AND UNREASONABLE. If you tell me I'll be billed on the 1st take the money from my account on the 1st of the month and not one day before !!! Business is business, right is right and wrong is wrong. She should've been a woman about it. It's the principle of the whole matter not about money at all. So next time maybe you'll shut your mouth and listen to your customer instead of over talking me. read more

I finally found a great waxing place in Fresno. Brazilian waxes are so uncomfortable, personal and embarrassing. I mean think about it, this person will be looking at your private areas so one has to really feel comfortable to want to go back. I'm not only going back, I decided to become a member. I no longer have an excuse to be hairy and I'd like to encourage you ladies and gentlemen to go be hair-free. Update: I love this place. There isn't excuse to be hairy. Especially with the awesome and very friendly Waxers here. Don't hesitate, nobody wants hairy swamp ass so go take care of yourself. read more

. I would not recommend this place if your looking to get a Brazilian , I've been waxed for years in the bay area I came to Fresno and needed a new place to go to so I came here and tried it for 6 months and never was satisfied, this place has been the worse experience. read more

This was my first time going here. I purchased a Groupon and I made an appt through text which was very convenient. I don't get good reception where I live. My technician was Sara and she was so sweet. She made sure I was comfortable and went at a pace that was comfortable for me. I will be rescheduling with Sara, she also offered the option of other services available and showed me around. The decorations were very beautiful in each room as they had different themes. I noticed it was very clean and tidy. There was a big size waiting room, just everything you could ask for in an establishment. I'm so happy I found this place. read more

Definitely felt comfortable when I went here for the first time. The staff is extremely calming and reassuring. Granted, I was a bit nervous because it was going to be my first time. However; once the process started, they made sure I was okay throughout the whole time. From that day, I was excited to go back and have it done again. Definitely amazing! read more

Just hit my year anniversary coming here! Love the people and the services they offer! I have referred people who are now members as well! We all love it here. Never had a bad experience in a full yr, now that's great customer service! I ended up here by way of a Living Socials deal, its definitely a diamond in the rough! Don't be scared try it out, you won't be disappointed! read more

I was a member here for years and they were great until this last year. They kept taking payments out for times that they were closed, and don't offer any refunds. They only offered certificates for a service other than what you were paying for. The estheticians were awesome and seem to get a bad rep from the management. I finally cancelled my membership and vowed to never go back. So after months of not receiving service, I get a double payment taken out of my account for something that I never attempted to receive. The owner finally contacted me and said she is working on the return of the fees taken out. But the whole experience has led me to take my business elsewhere. read more

They do take a while to respond through text initiallly but their service is worth the wait they were so sweet and fast !

When I first moved back to the central valley I was having a hard time finding a waxing center that with clean and gentle,I found Dare 2 go Bare. Through yelp and saw that the ratings were pretty high and also they had a lot of positive reviews. Along with that I had a friend referred me to Dare to go Bare. The first time I went I was very hesitant and scared. The last few times I had gotten a Brazilian wax the experience was horrible. The owner Valerie did my wax and was very welcoming and pleasant from the get go. Although Brazilians may be unpleasant, especially for the first timers, Valerie made the experience very pleasant and made me feel at ease. I have been going to Valerie and the girls at Dare 2 go Bare for about 8 months now, and I love it. The girls are friendly and make you feel like a friend. The method they use to wax your "vajayjay" is also a crucial part why go there. Id like to think, your wax will only be as pleasant as your aesthetician. read more

I see the reviews regarding this business being closed and all I can say is the gps and address are the old location you now must go down a little further and down a walkway to enter. I had been here before and went to old location. There is signage telling you where to go but you have to look for it, and the door will not be locked and you won't have to ring a doorbell. I loved my waxing experience and am heading there now for a yoni steam. read more

I was a first timer going and these ladies exceeded my expectations!! It is in your best interest to get the membership. Excellent customer service. :) read more

First waxing experience! After talking to others i finally got the courage to get waxed myself and I LOVE IT! Bianca was amazing and made me feel really comfortable. The pain was not bad at all ( i thought i would be jumping off the table). I will definitely become a member and I'm never shaving again! read more

Love this place, the membership is a great deal and my results have been amazing from day one. Going on 3 years with this establishment and wouldn't ever think about going elsewhere. read more

It was an ok experience because I got waxed by someone who had just begun working there 3 weeks prior to my appointment. She was sweet and patient and always reassuring me in the process. I've been getting waxed for about 8 years now and have had different experiences. This is definitely better than going to the European wax center (I quit going there ages ago). However I didn't like her specific waxing technique. This is just to say that it really depends on who is waxing you, and that can really make a difference in your experience, especially in how your hair grows in. The worst is getting ingrown hair because they wax wrong. So just make sure that you get someone who is well trained with a good history. read more

Dare 2 Go Bare has always taken good care of me. Val is funny, professional and can help you with unwanted hair in tough places. I would refer a friend to her anytime. Tonya read more

Still awesome and am continually coming here. Just a reminder, waxing can be painful so if you can't handle it then shave! Place is always clean and comfortable. Most complaints I've read have nothing to do with service or are one sided, so from my point of view which is from a reasonable and professionally judging type of view this place still rocks. Don't take my word though, book your appt AND try your best to keep it!...soon. read more

So its been a year, and I ABSOLUTELY love this place Bianca has been my go to since the first time I stepped in her room!! The staff is Amazing, friendly and really make you feel like family!! I am a more plus sized woman and letting people into your intimate area is something I was shy about!!! (they help u get over tgat fast) The prices are the best around, and even reading other reviews of how they don't respond is CRAZY!!! They always respond as soon as they are available... I have never had a Brazilian anywhere else... but why would I? THESE LADIES ARE AMAZING read more

This place is super cute, with friendly staff. You get my vote because you were able to work with my time. I appreciate that!

This place is professional, comfortable, and welcoming. It is professional because out of all the times I have had a Brazilian done at other salons I have never been given post-waxing instructions. I appreciated how mindful they were about taking precautions to avoid ingrown hairs. The female that waxed me was plain awesome! Made me feel comfortable and kept up a great conversation. I am so glad I found this place through a living social coupon. If I was from the area I would consider coming back. However the one complaint I have was unlike my other Brazilians I was left with residue hair. Didn't like that too much, not sure if it was the wax they used. Either way I do recommend this place! read more

I originally found this place on Groupon, where I purchased a voucher for a Brazilian wax. It had really good reviews so I decided to go ahead and try it out. I texted them to book an appointment because it says to text them and not call. I texted around 9am and never got a reply so around 5pm I decided to give them a call and no one picked up. After I called them they decided to finally text back telling me they had an appointment the next day so I texted back asking for a different time because I wasn't going to be able to make it and again I never got a reply. The next day I tried calling again and again no one picked up and they finally texted back telling me to send them the times that I would be able to come in. It's such a hassle to get a hold of them, I ended up just going to Europe's wax center and getting a wax there because I could actually get an appointment. I wouldn't recommend this place, it's so unprofessional and hard to get a hold of. I'm going to end up not even using my Groupon and just letting it expire. read more

If I could give negative stars they would definitely get them. I bought a deal from Groupon and wanted to use it before heading to Hawaii.....never heard from anyone. I called repeatedly and no one ever returned my call. I think it's incredibly unprofessional. read more

Is this place still open? Can't get anyone to answer my text message since last week...

I got my first ever Brazilian wax done here a few weeks ago. I was so nervous but Bianca made me feel so comfortable! Yes it hurt for a few seconds with each wax strip removal but completely worth it. I was so impressed I bought a monthly membership! read more

Mia is the best!! I've gone to a few different places and either had a painful traumatizing horrible experience, bad wax job, rude service, hard time booking or over priced. This place is perfect. The girls there are super friendly and welcoming. They send appointment confirmations and reminders through text so I never miss my appointment. MIA is like no other wax specialist. She gives helpful tips on how to prep for best results. She makes sure to get it all, & the wax she uses is awesome. Compared to wax used at other places i noticed a big difference. read more

I regret ignoring some of the bad reviews here. Various people have mentioned that it is impossible to get in touch with them and I agree. I purchased a Groupon deal and tried calling a few times to schedule an appointment but they never picked up. I finally decides to send a text message a few days later. They got back to me the next day and we scheduled an appointment. I then tried rescheduling my appointment but again, they wouldn't pick up. My text messages requesting to reschedule were ignored. I finally gave up. You people can keep my money but you have lost a potential life time customer. read more

Christine was the best!! This was my first wax and she made it so easy!! She walked me through the entire process and I am very happy with the results. I would totally recommend her and this place!! read more

Location is a little bit out of the way, but the whole staff is very friendly and nice. One of few places that do manzilians for a decent price($55). They also give you advice for how to prepare for next visit and they offer their own home made oil to help to prevent ingrown hair. Price for that is also fairly cheap.($12-15) can't remember the exact price. read more
