I've been twice, seen two different stylists. Both times on Fridays when I had special occasions. I'd go back. I have stick straight hair and I'm too lazy to blow it out in a way that looks great.

There was already a thread on this. And if you really cannot figure out why someone whether its a teen, working mom, or SAHM would want this service thats ridiculous.


It's not ridiculous. Does one have a party tonight and need to get their hair styled? I can understand that. If not, once you go to bed tonight, won't the style get ruined?


A good blowout will last a few days.


It even survives "bed hair"? How about washing hair? Does that mean you don't wash the hair for a few days?


A good blow out will even survive bed hair. You can use dry shampoo if you feel your hair is too oily.

This all depends on your hair type of course, but generally, you shouldn't be washing your hair every day.

If I get a blow out today (wishful thinking), it should last me until Monday. I would use dry shampoo on Saturday, maybe wash some front pieces and dry them. I would blow dry my hair briefly after a shower (like maybe a minute or two) to make sure all the dry shampoo is out.

Honestly, sometimes blowouts look better a few days out as they look more natural.

Some people think wrapping your hair in a towel during a shower keeps the style longer as shower caps hold in humidity. And as everyone in the DC area knows, humidity makes your hair frizz. I either clip it up and keep my hair out of the direct stream of water (and blowdry briefly), or put on a hilariously ugly shower cap I bought at like safeway for 99 cents.

I'll sprinkle on some dry shampoo before my shower and leave it in my hair during my shower. I keep my showers brief during this time (no hiding from the kids while the husband is on duty, haha). Once I'm out of the shower, I leave the shower as soon as possible to avoid as much humidity as I can. I then brush my hair, and then will briefly blow it out, making sure the last of the dry shampoo is out and it's nice and straight again. This process sounds like it takes a long time, but it maybe takes 5 minutes.

Just my two cents. Hope it helps.

OP here. I am a working professional who occasionally does on-camera media interviews, so I need my hair to look good on those days. I've never gone to a salon for a blowout, except when it's in conjunction with a haircut. I can never get my hair to look like that and was hoping Bethesda Drybar would be a good option for me on days I need my hair to look great.

I was also wondering how long it lasts-- I'd love for it to look good the next day.

I was there several months ago, and the blowout/styling was crap.

The manager did not charge me and gave me a voucher for a free blowout (which I didn't use). So, good management from what I saw. But the stylist just didn't have a clue what she was doing.

Anyone been? Your experience? If you had a great blowout, what was the name of your stylist?

I've been thinking of going, but Yelp reviews of this place are pretty bad.
