I recently had my very first Blowout at The Drybar and oh my heavens I am in love! I visited the new location in St. Louis and I am hooked.
So what is a Blowout?
You may have heard the term “Blowout” and be wondering what is the heck is this? Trust me, a year ago I was just as clueless as you may be. A blowout is an art of drying hair after a wash to achieve a smooth and sleek look, style and feel.
Why Drybar Blowout is a must
A blow dry bar is a hair salon that only does blowouts. Wash, blow dry and hair styling. No Cuts, No Color, Just Blowouts! But at Drybar, it’s much more than that. It’s an experience that you must try at least once. Trust me!
Once you arrive your stylist will take you a room to shampoo and condition your hair. They usually ask if you want your hair shampooed once or twice. Next, they will add conditioner to your hair. I love All of the Drybar products. I already use them daily at home. They not only smell amazing, but they also work! After your hair is clean it’s time to head back to the chair for your blowout.
Complimentary Drink
At the DryBar you will be pampered by your stylist from start to finish. You get to relax while watching a chick flick. You will receive a complimentary drink of your choice. Mimosas, champagne, wine, tea, coffee or water. I am sure you can guess what I went with. Champagne of course.
The Style
Next, you will look at the Look Book to choose what hairstyle you want. The styles are named after drinks that include the Old Fashioned, the Straight Up, the Manhattan, the Cosmo, the Mai Tai, the Cosmo-Tai, the Southern Comfort, the Dirty Martini, the Uptini, and the Shirley Temple. How fun is this?!
The Cost and Menu
Most Blowouts are $45 depending on the location. There are also add on’s like braids, hair masks, and scalp massage.
Next, the blowout begins. I chose curlers to help give my hair with volume which is something I told my stylist I wanted.
I went with the Cosmo/Cosmo Tai. You can explain the look you are wanting and your stylist can help you achieve that look.
While your stylist is making you beautiful, you get to relax and sip on your cocktail or choice of drink and watch a chick flick. Father of the Bride was playing while I was there.
My Favorite Products I use daily
My Final Look
I can’t even express how happy I am with my results. I walked out of the Drybar feeling like Beyoncé. You know what I am talking about. The best thing is my blowout lasted 4 days.

Abby Hendrix says
atI have never been to a dry bar. I have heard of them but never understood what it was. I’m a boy mom so I’m used to T-shirt’s and shorts and not getting all gussied up. It sounds like the perfect pampering session!
Jennifer Wagganer says
atI have never heard of a dry bar til I seen your video of you going in to have your hair done! I think it would be a neat experience and a much needed pampering day for a gal like me! lol
Carly says
atI have never been to a blow dry bar but was thinking of going for my birthday next month. I LOVE getting my hair blow dried at the salon.
Carrie Weiss says
atI have never been to a drybar but I know that when a professional styles my hair it usually stays looking and feeling nice for 2-3 days. With naturally curly hair it is a chore to keep one style. I would love to be pampered so thanks for thinking of all your fans with this giveaway.
Dani Haschalk says
atI have enjoyed seeing the dry bar process you’ve documented and would love to try it. I try to not wash my hair daily but my hair is thin and I’m not always able to skip a wash. It sounds amazing that you can typically go four days with a style. I’ll definitely try to check out a dry bar soon. Thank you for everything you share!
