Welcome to Lay-Bare.com

Hi! Only clients are allowed inside the cubicles during the procedure :) Companions are requested to wait at the reception area :)
Hi there! We normally advise our clients not to work out after a treatment, as bacteria from sweating may accumulate in the affected area. It is better to wait about 4 hours (the amount of time for skin pores to close) after the procedure to get into physical exercise.
That it is a normal reaction after the procedure :) That would normally subside after a few days. We recommend clients to exfoliate regularly for prevention :)
All transactions are counted towards the accumulated P5000 worth of services but the loyalty card program has its own guidelines.
Thanks for the positive feedback and the continued support :) We are now accepting applications for Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. Unfortunately, we had to close Metro Manila already since we have it pretty much covered. :)
Hi there! It is normal to feel pain during the procedure. We advise clients to take a pain reliever 30 minutes prior to the treatment to lessen the pain, especially during their first time. For your succeeding visits, we suggest that you come more frequently while hair is still very short for the procedure to be quick and less painful!
Normally you have to wait at least 3 weeks for your hair to be long enough for a brazilian wax. :)
Best to give your brazilian a couple of days before going back to your old routine - just to make sure your pores have completely closed to avoid bacteria. The brazilian will definitely sting a bit but the results are definitely worth it!
Yes, we have been open at SM Megamall since May 15, 2010. It is still P450 and there definitely is a bit of discomfort especially for a first-timer but you should be ok just a few minutes after the procedure :)
Give it 48 hours to be on the safe side :)
Best to give it 48 hours since going in the sauna would make you sweat and sweat breeds bacteria! We wax and then thread your upper lip if there are still baby hairs left.
Yes, we have a database that tracks your services. You may check with the branch you visit the most to see if you've hit the mark already and they could issue you a Premier Loyalty Card that you may present at any branch to get the 10% off.
Yes we accept appointments at all branches. You may call or text 0917-LAY-BARE.
You may go back to the branch...as long as you come back within a week's time we'll redo the service free of charge. Thanks and our apologies for this inconvenience.
That's normal esp for first-timers. It could take a few hours to a few days before it completely goes away.
Waxing will make your hair finer and sparser but this doesn't happen overnight...give it a few sessions to notice the difference.
It is at first but we make it very private and very comfy for you. You'll get the hang of it in no time! :)
We want to capitalize on the ambiance and comfort of our branches and we have 24 so far so we should be accessible to most anyone in Metro Manila. At the same time we do not want to encourage the staff to take our business elsewhere. Hope to see you in one of our branches soon :)
For first timers about 45mins, follow-ups about 30. :)
Better clear it with your Derma first but based on experience if your underarm is rash-free at the time of waxing it should be okay :)
Actually we no longer practice underarm threading even for remaining hairs since it has proven to be dangerous for underarm skin.
Yes, that's correct. Your Lay Bare premier loyalty card entitles you to a 10% discount at ANY Lay Bare branh. We will start giving out the premier loyalty cards this July 1. Do ask your branch about it. :) No need to present your receipts :)
Waxing should make your underarms look lighter once hair is taken out from the roots :) Due to the pressure though your underarm skin could appear darker at first but should go away in a couple of days. If you're bothered by it please go back to the branch so we may take a look. Thanks!
We carry the Mosbeau Underarm cream which is P950 for a 30gram jar. It's available at any Lay Bare branch.
Hi there! We're working on a space at SM Marikina first then Sta. Lucia...slowly but surely :) Thanks!
We advise clients who are below 18 years old to come with their parents. If allowed, better to go for a bikini wax and then later move on to the brazilian once you can tolerate the discomfort :)
Best to get it done 2 to 3 days before. Just take a shower, a pian reliever 30mins before and relax. It's not as bad as you've heard :)
That should be okay but try to avoid doing things that make you sweat immediately after getting waxed since your pores are still open and would need about 4 hours to fully close.
Yes, walk-ins are ok but we recommend you make an appointment to avoid waiting in line. :)
Working on it! We're opening in Alabang Town Center very soon so palapit na kami ng palapit sa Laguna! :)
Hi there! Yes you may call the branch at 470-8872 and advise them. They should be able to redo it if you come within a week. :) Sorry about that and thanks!
We are only open for franchising in the Bacolod/Iloilo/Dumaguete areas :)
Waxing is still a better alternative to shaving. It would leave you hair-free for weeks plus hair re-growth is finer and sparser.
Underarm hair has to be left untouched about 10 days to be ready for a waxing. It normally grows back in 10 to 14 days as well. Yes they will all come out when waxed. :)
Yes but that is part of the chest area which is neck to waist :) Yes it is pretty safe the chest is prone to pimples though during the summer ones when we tend to sweat more :)
About 3 to 4 weeks any you may easily pluck the stray hairs with a handy tweezer since it takes a while before your brows to get out of shape :)
We apply a soothing cream that is aloe-based right after the procedure so doing is 3 to 4 hours later should be equally safe. :)
We are currently installing our own toilet but it does not have a shower room. If you don't mind using the bidet then you could probably do a quick shower there. It should be up and working by next week.
We now have 3 mall locations: SM Fairview, Market! Market!, and SM Megamall. In line are SM Manila, The Block, Alabang Town Center, Festival Mall to name a few...so it will definitely be more accessible for mall goers like yourself soon!
Soreness and redness is normal after a wax session...just don't scratch the area. It should go away in a couple of days. :)
Yes we take visa, mastercard, amex and jcb. :)
I suggest you get it when you reach full term or at least 36 weeks :)
Hi! There is a credit card terminal at Lay Bare Plaridel branch already :) Kindly ask your technician for assistance :) Thanks!
At least 4 hours. If you get waxed in the afternoon or evening I suggest you wait till the next morning especially if it's your first time.
Thank you for your inquiry! All our branches have had many experiences taking care of foreign clients. You may just click on our locations page to see the branch nearest you!
Hi there! We're on hold for franchising at the moment. We'll post an announcement here once that changes :) Thanks!
Hi there! Best to get it done 2 to 3 days before your beach trip especially if it's your first time. Have fun! :)
Hi there! Your message was incomplete but I'm guessing your observation is about our senior waxer who was out for a while? Hazel will be back on Saturday, April 3. :)
Hi there! Yes, threading comes after waxing if there are remaining hairs left. Please report this to the branch you visited so they may make it up to you on your next visit :) Thanks for the post!
Hi there! All our technicians are female but rest assured they have all been trained to handle male clients as well :) Relax :)
Hi Claire! You just have to go down Wilson and turn right once you see Alex 3...we're a block down also on the right side where Ristras is. :)
Waxing is definitely more comfy and is quicker to do than threading. Threading is only done when there are hairs left after waxing. :)
I wouldn't recommend it since you are immuno-compromised when you have your period and are more sensitive :) Sometimes your skin could easily bruise :)
Hi there! Thank you so much for your interest in franchising Lay Bare. We however are undergoing a major overhaul and are not taking applications at the moment :) We'll post an announcement on our website once we're ready to start taking applications again :)
Hi! We just have the one at Market! Market! with Ayala Malls but hope to have a branch in ATC someday soon too. :) Do visit our website again for updates :) Thanks!
To slowly ease into the habit of waxing, clients may opt to start off with a Bikini wax for their visit, then avail of a Brazilian wax for their 2nd and succeeding visits :)
You may opt to take a pain reliever 30 minutes before the procedure to minimize the pain :)
Full body wax would include face, underarms, arms, chest, back, Brazilian, and leg. Eyebrow threading is also given for free :)
Hi there! We recommend you wait 48 hours after your bikini or brazilian wax :)
It is only natural to experience some flaking on the treated area, which will subside after a couple of days, at most, after the treatment. Avoid scratching or rubbing the area, or apply creams or lotions, as this may irritate the skin.
A bikini wax only removes hair that is visible around the bikini line. The Brazilian wax, on the other hand, removes hair from the front, back and everything in between!
Hair re-growth varies from one individual to the next =). But, generally, for underarm every 3 weeks; half leg 3 to 4 weeks; Brazilian 6 weeks.
Although there is no scientific evidence that proves waxing is harmful, it is better to err on the conservative and wait it out till you've given birth. Please note, though, getting a Brazilian wax is quite common for women who have reached their full term in pregnancy.
If you are sensitive to pain and are prone to infection and bruising, better wait until a week after your last day :)
Our wax is purely all natural =) We only have had a few instances of people getting a rash after the treatment. Note that redness after waxing is normal and will naturally disappear after a few hours or until a couple of days.
Please note that any form of hair removal may cause ingrown hair, not just waxing or threading. Frequent exfoliation will surely address this concern!
As much as possible, avoid exposure to direct sunlight for at least 24-48 hours to avoid hyperpigmentation.
The level of pain is dependent upon various factors: the service being done, the client's threshold for pain, etc. Though we do not guarantee a completely painless waxing experience, it offers a more comfortable alternative to hot wax. First, we employ the "patch" technique which removes hair one small section at a time, as opposed to "strip" waxing which strip off at a single pull. This causes less trauma to the skin. Second, we use all-natural cold wax, so there is no risk of getting burns. Third, we boast of a very peaceful and cozy ambiance. Also, our professional and fully-trained technicians will ensure that you will have a relaxing waxing experience!
