My first time visiting blo west hartford. Loved that I was able to get an appointment within an…read morehour as I happened to have some time on a Monday. Overall the lady there was kind and my hair looks amazing afterwards. My only complaints is that they were very rough with my hair during wash and blow dry (burned my scalp a few times) and I definitely have a lot of whispies at the top of my head sticking out which I know is from breakage in my hair overall but felt maybe a product on top shouldve been applied? Also didn't love that they left me sitting at the sink to answer the phone, I think a professional place like this should focus on the client especially a first timer. And did a cold rinse at the end ? I get that's helpful for the hair but no one wants an ice cold head in wintertime. Maybe would have gotten a membership if the above didn't happen but overall a nice blowout to get spontaneously

ETA the salon followed up very promptly with me and discussed my concerns in detail, which I…read moreappreciated. We came to an understanding and they seemed to take the makeup concerns seriously. I had to split my rating because I got two services done- my blowout was 5 stars, my makeup was 0 stars. I got an incredible blowout with curls from Danielle- she made me look absolutely beautiful and they were probably the best curls I have ever gotten from a salon. I would recommend her in a heartbeat and would absolutely return for a blowout. I also really appreciated her flexibility with timing as she was able to accommodate an earlier time for me because I was getting my hair and makeup done before my bridal shower. The only thing that confused me was their extensions policy is unclear for some types of extensions. Unfortunately, I had an awful experience having my makeup done. The woman doing my makeup honestly did not seem like she had any professional experience or training, and most of the makeup products were drugstore brands or extremely limited in color options (for example, there were literally two options for eyeliner, black or dark brown). As just a few examples- (1) I asked for very thin eyeliner, she put a thick line of liquid liner and the line was visibly wobbly; (2) when she removed the liquid liner, she also took off part of my eyeshadow, but then did not try to replace the eyeshadow until I asked her to, so there was a visible bare space on my eyelid; (3) she kept asking if we were done after every separate part of the face, I had to ask her to also do my face and lips... (4) I asked for a petal pink lipstick and she literally gave me rust orange. Eventually, I just had her stop what she was doing so I would have enough time to fix it myself, which is what I did- I literally went home and took off almost all my makeup and just did it myself. It added a huge amount of stress before a special occasion and I can't believe I paid $75 to basically do my own makeup.

Blowout was fine, but I booked online and didn't realize it was charging the full amount of the…read moreappointment. I also paid at the appointment so two charges for the same day for one blowout processed on my credit card. I called 4 days later once I noticed and was told a manager wasn't onsite but they'd leave my name and number for the following day. That was 5 days ago and I haven't heard back or recieved a refund. I called again and was told the same thing about a manager not being a site and taking my name and number. Disputed the charge with my bank which is now an unnecessary long process because this place couldn't take 5 minutes to make it right.

MOST AWFUL EXPERIENCE:: BUYER BEWARE…read more Would give a 0 if I were able to! I had the most awful experience at blo blow dry bar in Franklin lakes. I Went there for a dry hair style (curls) for an occasion where we were taking pictures. I have A LOT A LOT of hair. Like every hair stylist/ hair cutter has commented on how much hair and volume I have. Not more than 45 min after my appointment I left looking greasy (it's very hard for that to even happen to me, but I guess the products they use look greasy) And my curls were gone, my hair looked stringy and flat. Not sure what tools they use but they aren't professional I couldn't even believe how flat and gross it looked (it looked dirty). I was there for an hour and a half, and mind you I went in with dry hair not wet. I had to completely start over to fix it. I called them back 3 days ago. The manager there, Karina felt that I wasn't worth her time to get back to me. She left me an initial voicemail and told me she was free to talk to me all day Friday and every time I called the front desk girls would say oh she'll call you at this time and then she never would. I also asked for them to get her so that we could speak for 1-2 minutes. She refused because she was "too busy." I finally got a call back from a manager at another location From Eileen. I asked them for a refund since what they did to my hair was atrocious. They keep giving me the run around and even asked me to come back another time ( NO THANK YOU! ). Has anyone else had an experience like this there? I just can't believe how disrespectful they are there and also how awful my hair looked. Spread the word so this doesn't happen to you. I even went to look at reviews and I'm not the only one this had happened to. Looked like 10 other women had just around the same experience as mine. With how expensive things are these days I feel that it's unacceptable. Also kindness go ways further than rudeness. Eileen called me back with a very fake nice persona telling me that I won't be getting a refund and that I can come in and they will do my hair again. HA! no thanks! I don't think I will be ever wasting my time at that place ever again. Spare yourself! Go somewhere else!

Was greeted by Lauren immediately upon entering the business. She was prompt, courteous and very…read moreknowledgeable about the products! It was like taking a journey with an experienced stylist who walked me through all of the products and answered every question I had. Their products are vegan friendly and naturally derived - really love that. The dryers are not loud and you're able to continue a conversation with your stylist without feeling drowned out. Great chair chat and wonderful blow out! Ended up purchasing a membership moving forward as this is one of the best blowouts I've had to date! Great job! Start to finish was approximately 1 hour from being seated, so it was a perfect length of service too! Not too long, not too quick. (Photo of blowout attached to review) Thanks Lauren and Blo Blow Dry Bar! UPDATE! Day 5 post blow out and my hair is still holding strong (image included) -- The products they used are amazing - they do sell shower caps there, so grab one before you head out! It's worth it! Noting: I work from home, did go out and walked the dog, but wore a hood for protection, only strength trained no cardio the past 5 days, shower cap really works, no bonnet at night (however, highly recommend if you want less fly aways than my hair) Natural hair type: Curly between a 3A and 3B depending on the chart.

Highly recommend the head spa if you haven't before (you may fall asleep and I never fall asleep during a facial) - not only are the chairs super relaxing, but the whole vibe of the room is calming and amazing. Plus, having your head massaged? I need this more often than I do it. For the regular blow outs, they give you a great wash (usually using Oribe products) and sometimes I go for curls. I can easily make a blow out from here last at least 5 days (so, if I do my girl math properly, that means that I am saving time and money because I don't have to wash my hair and attempt to do it). I am planning the braids with dragon hair added in for an upcoming race. I usually see Becky - she's fun, friendly, and has great ideas. I also love getting the tinsel put in.
