I had the worst experience I’ve ever had at a DryBar, which I’ve gone to for 10 yrs. I had Jai (altho others have been excellent—Kaori especially, +Brett & Myra).

Worst Drybar I’ve been to. Terrible blowout and unpleasant salon. I have no body, no shine, but I do have clumps of hairspray throughout my hair. Waste of money and time and it doesn't look like I got a blow out.

Nicole and Josiah were unbelievably accommodating for my daughter on July 4th! At the last minute, her dance director required a style that we could not do on our own. I spoke with Nicole in the phone who assured me she could make it happen and after a brief consultation in person, Josiah went to work. In less than 30mins, her hair was styled exactly as requested, relieving stress and allowing her to feel confident for her upcoming performance. We are so grateful for their help on a holiday!
