Testimonials

“Genuinely couldn’t have wished for a better experience with laser hair removal.

I’ve tried every hair removal method there is (shaving, waxing, epilating…) and never got the results I wanted. I always had issues with irritation, ingrown hairs etc. and it was growing so quick that I couldn’t keep up with it.

I finally decided to resort to laser hair removal and had an amazing experience at Bare UK. Not only is everything detailed on the website but Julie also went through the whole process with me so I understood the procedure at every step. She made me feel comfortable from the very beginning, which is so important for such an intimate treatment and especially for someone who hadn’t done it before.

As for the results, I really couldn’t be happier with them. At first I wanted to manage my expectations knowing my skin was quite sensitive but I wouldn’t have imagined I would see such a big difference so quick. My skin has never been softer and healthier (it’s not dry anymore, which I never expected to sort out, and there’s a huge improvement in irritation/ingrown hairs etc.). I went from shaving every 3 days to forgetting to shave for weeks as there was no growth!

For anyone who’s scared of the pain – I was, too, but it’s really not bad at all. By the end of my second appointment I was completely used to the sensation, and I don’t have super high pain tolerance. I had the full body treatment, including parts of my face, so objectively I can say the pain is more than bearable for any area.

Overall just a fantastic experience. Julie is absolutely lovely and a true professional. I always look forward to my appointments so I’m quite sad writing this just after my second to last session. However, should I need any touch up appointments, I will stick with Bare without hesitation, even though I relocated in the meantime. Well worth the travel, and laser hair removal was well worth staying out of the sun during summer!”

“I could not be happier with the results I have seen following my treatments with Julie. I have previously tried laser hair removal but found the process extremely painful and did not proceed with the treatments. The treatment Julie offers was not only completely painless but also very effective. Julie was very reassuring and made me feel completely at ease during my visits. Would not hesitate in recommending Julie to friends :)”

“I highly recommend BareUK. The laser session is fast and painless, and the results are priceless. I previously tried another laser somewhere else, and the one at BareUK is painless. I was a bit worried, but Julie is a lovely lady who made me feel comfortable. Thank you.”

“I was Julie’s client at Bare UK Oxford for about 3 years till the pandemic hit and in one word, it was my sanctuary! I had never had laser hair removal as I was sceptical about it and my sensitive skin. The market also wasn’t sprawling with options tested and tried for black skin.

When I met Julie the first time, she simply got me! She adjusted her standard processes to suit my skin and not too long after got a specific laser machine that zapped my hair efficiently without burning my skin.

Post wave 1 Covid I moved out of Oxfordshire and simply didn’t know how to start with finding a new facility for laser hair removal. Guess who I called on and who searched and found a clinic for me, pronto? Yeah, Julie!

May I add that it is now about 2 years since I last had a treatment with Julie and I am just now needing to restart. I.e it works and the effects are really long lasting!

In addition to being an excellent aesthetician, Julie’s a wonderful human being and I can guarantee that she will provide care to the highest possible standard available.”

“I’ve followed through with the laser treatment for 6 sessions. Definitely could see some effect from session 3 onwards with the need to shave only twice before session 4. I was super impressed with the results I was seeing between sessions 5 and 6 as I only had to shave once. I love how Julie always asks how it’s going and if I could feel the heat. I personally never found it too hot and actually contrasting popular belief it really doesn’t hurt at all. The cool air feels so refreshing and minimises the heat felt. Every time I go, I feel super relaxed. Definitely would recommend this place to my friends and particularly Julie for being so lovely :)”

“Julie did a fantastic job and I have used her services in the past. My laser hair removal results were amazing from the first session onwards. The new high-tech machine was brilliant. Highly recommended – always professional and sound advice given. Friendly and clean practice following Covid rules etc. Thank you Julie!”

“I’m so glad I was able to find Julie when I went looking for full body hair removal treatments! As a trans woman she has always made me feel welcome, and the results have made a huge difference. She has been very considerate of my comfort levels as we have gotten rid of some very tough facial hair. Definitely recommended!”

“Words can’t describe how happy I am with the treatment I’ve had at BARE UK. I was lucky to see a difference after one session, but I feel even luckier to have found Julie.

She is a true professional, and extremely knowledgeable and efficient. I have PCOS and was worried about the treatment, and how well it would work relative to the cost.

The amount of facial hair that grows back reduces every session, and I’ve gone from shaving twice a day to once every few. Even then, the hair growth is light and sparse. No one notices – something I never even dreamt possible. Julie was certain to make sure I knew what to expect and how to take care of my skin after treatment.

A major thing I was worried about was the pain and how red my skin would be after. It’s nowhere near as bad as I imagined. Whilst I can feel the heat and the lasers feel a bit like pin pricks, Julie uses cool air to reduce the heat and sensation. Furthermore, each session my skin has got more used to the treatment, and combined with the lessened hair growth, means that my skin copes better and recovers faster.

I’m very grateful to have found Julie and have done laser hair removal with her. She’s very efficient at organising sessions, and her salons central location is convenient. The process of treatment is as pain-free as possible at every step. My only wish is that I’d done it sooner, so I could have reaped the benefits earlier. It’s boosted my confidence in an inordinate number of ways and best of all one notices my facial or chest hair even if I don’t shave for days. I went from people staring at my chin by midday to the guy I’m dating not noticing until I mentioned it. “

“My experience with Julie at Bare UK was outstanding. Not only was she friendly, knowledgable and comforting, but her machinery, clinic and everything was extremely professional. Julie has so much experience with laser hair removal and cherry angioma removal. She informed me of all the steps in the process and was with me every step of the way. I felt safe and informed. Ultimately, the procedure for laser hair removal was pain-free and very effective, especially on my dark, thick hair.”

“As for the cherry angioma removal, I will definitely sign up for more sessions as I have so many of these red moles all over my body. Julie’s machine was pain-free and effective. I’d highly recommend this procedure for anyone wanting to remove those pesky red moles.”

“Thank you Bare UK for this wonderful experience! I would 10/10 recommend them as the best laser hair removal service in Oxford.”

“As a bloke I was a bit embarrassed and self-conscious about walking into a hair removal clinic and so, without a doubt, the hardest part of the whole process was making the initial commitment.

However, from that point on the whole thing was fantastic. Julie is such a lovely lady and puts you totally at ease, she’s worked for lots of men and so is very aware of any anxieties you may have. You start with an initial consultation and then book info for 6 or so sessions.

The finished article is very impressive as it looks totally natural and not like you’ve had some sort of cosmetic procedure. I thought it would hurt because it involves a laser but you feel nothing at all.

I genuinely couldn’t recommend this more highly and just wish I’d done it sooner. Julie will oversee the whole thing and is a real pro.

Go for it, you won’t regret it.”

“I would highly recommend Julie’s hair removal service. She was attentive to quality, experienced and amicable. She was also trustworthy. If you spend too much money on waxing like I did, I would say go for it.”

“Gobsmacked! Thrilled! Optimistic! Determined! Those are some of the feelings I had as I walked away from my first session with Julie at Bare UK. I would never have expected the results I had after one session!

I’ve seen before and after pictures in the past and have been dubious but I was truly amazed. My shape has changed, my stomach is flatter and the difference in my stretch marks is amazing. I’ve always been conscious of them and struggled with certain clothes but assumed they were there for good. They will be, but I am confident that future sessions will lighten them and have a life changing effect for me!

I would definitely recommend the treatments. The warm heat and tingles are worth it! Thank you, thank you Julie, you are a treasure!”

Julie is amazing, makes treatments an occasion to look forward to, always enjoy visiting and am so happy with how effective the laser tratment has been – summer legs are looking amazing!

Professional work, quick and easy, peaceful room. Effective and efficient work,very happy with her work, I definitely recommend and I will definitely be coming back!

After receiving my reminder texts from Bare UK, I strangely look forward to my laser sessions with Julie, I feel like I am visiting a friend, even though she is very professional. The after effects of the treatment are always more than pleasing.

I have had laser hair removal treatments at a few places and Julie is definitely the best. Results have been amazing and the cool machine she uses takes all pain away – so quick and easy. Highly recommended!

“The laser technology works brilliantly in the hands of a competent professional, and Julie is an absolute perfectionist, both in terms of the astonishing results and in terms of safety. This is one very happy and satisfied customer!”

“I have always wanted to give laser hair removal a go but could never afford it. I am so pleased I came across Bare UK as I am now on my third session for hair removal and already noticing amazing results and at really reasonable prices compared with other salons. Laser hair removal is far better than waxing… I am definitely going to get it done on other areas – I can’t wait to be hair free for good!”

“Julie is extremely professional. She makes you feel at ease, prepares you for the treatment well and has excellent attention to detail. I’ve had the laser treatment and was shocked by how successful it is. It really is as good as it claims to be. I can definitely recommend Julie and her work at Bare UK. She provides an outstanding and excellent service.”
