Hibernate Lazy Loading Using SpringMVC

Question

I'm having a big problem for which I can't find an answer.

I have a OneToOne bidirectional Lazy fetched relation between two entities, but when I query one of them, it eagerly fetch the other, even though I'm explicitly saying that it's Lazy.

According to what I've found, almost all from 2010 and back, says that that is the way hibernate behaves on OneToOne relations. This is my first time using Hibernate ever but I highly doubt that is true, and if it was that it still is true. But i can't find any recent information about it. Post1, Post2, Post3 as you can see, they are not really recent. So I wanted to know if that's still the case or maybe guide me to where I can find the answer, examples, anything would help really.

Here's what I'm doing, just in case I'm doing something wrong. Note the classes has fewer attributes than the original, but all of them are columns of the entity, no FK, PK, or something like that.

User Entity

@Entity
@Table(name = "\"User\"")
public class User {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    @Column(name = "Id", unique = true, nullable = false)
    private long id;

    @Column(name = "Username", nullable = false, unique = true, length = 100)
    private String username;

    @Valid
    @OneToOne(fetch = FetchType.LAZY, mappedBy = "user", cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
    @JsonBackReference
    private UserProfile userProfile;
    //Getters and Setters
}

UserProfile Entity

@Entity
@Table(name = "UserProfile")
public class UserProfile {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private long id;

    @NotBlank
    @Size(max = 100)
    @Column(name = "FirstName", nullable = false, unique = false, length = 100)
    private String firstName;

    @NotBlank
    @Size(max = 100)
    @Column(name = "LastName", nullable = false, unique = false, length = 100)
    private String lastName;

    @Valid
    @OneToOne(fetch = FetchType.LAZY, cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
    @JoinColumn(name = "UserId")
    @JsonManagedReference
    private User user;

    //Getters and Setters
}

Test controller method

@RequestMapping(value = "/test", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public ResponseEntity<Void> test(){
    User user = userService.findUserByUsername("admin");
    if(user.getUserProfile() == null){
        return new ResponseEntity<Void>(HttpStatus.OK); 
    }
    return new ResponseEntity<Void>(HttpStatus.CONFLICT);
}

And the UserService simply calls the UserDao method, which is

@Override
public User findByUsername(String username) {
    Criteria criteria = createEntityCriteria();
    criteria.add(Restrictions.eq("username", username));
    return (User) criteria.uniqueResult();
}

The result of that service is always Conflict. Even though I'm calling the UserService (Which is Transactional) and the direct relation is in UserProfile. The controller is not transactional.

The log:

Is there something wrong? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for any help you can provide! Let me know if you need more info!
