I did have a nice scalp message as well as, a quick wash/blow out from Tamra, taking about a 1/2hr nice & quick too! My assumption for price range (I thought) would be your typical city prices of $55-$75. But I should have asked first because the total upon checkout with a 20% tip was a whopping $146.10!! So price for blowout -no flat ironing, no curling etc. - ended up $116.88 without tip! Always ask pricing prior to booking!! Lesson learned! :/

I was fine to forgive that but then she asked me if I wanted anti humidity spray in my hair. Of course I said yes. I'm in Austin for Pete's sake. But she did not tell me there was a charge associated with that. It was $15!!! Flipping hairspray was $15!!! I'm guessing it would have been cheaper to just buy the bottle. I didn't know there was a charge until I was paying. I went ahead and paid for it but I feel bamboozled. My coworker also said yes to a spray and wasn't charged extra. What in the actual F! How is any sort of spray worth $15??

The blow dry membership is totally worth it -- I get two blowouts a month, plus free perks and discounts on makeup services and everything else they offer. Every time I walk in, I know I'm going to leave feeling fabulous. I trust the team so much that I give them full creative freedom -- whether I describe a certain look or let them do their thing, they each add their own flair and twist that I love. In the photo I'm sharing, these are Wally's Waves -- his curls are truly unmatched. He's amazing. And my makeup? Done by the incredible Roxanne. She's done my makeup for everything from holiday parties to photo shoots, music festivals, concerts, and themed events. She always delivers and gets me to try fun new things that end up looking incredible. I also want to give special shoutouts to Keith, Gina, Roxanne, and Wally -- not only for their talent, but for the genuine conversations, beauty advice, and even a little therapy here and there! I've had amazing experiences with everyone I've met here, and I know I can walk in, book with anyone, and trust that I'll walk out looking and feeling great. Highly recommend this place. Y'all are the best -- love you!

However, the quality of the blowout was lacking. I asked my stylist for a voluminous blowout with big curls, and I took these photos as soon as I got home - about 30 mins after my appointment - and you can see that it looks pretty messy. My hair wasn't brushed out at the salon after the blowout was done, and I was told to wait to brush it out to preserve it. Maybe I should've paid the upcharge to use hot tools, but my hair never has trouble holding form after a blowout. I paid $58 + tip for this, and had to redo it myself when I got home

Feel if that were the case, it could have been mentioned upfront as my hair length was obvious from the first minute I walked in. Avoid this place!

Y'all! This was my very first Drybar experience, all thanks to my daughter :) She booked our…read moreappointment today because she is a regular and goes almost every week to her dry bar in Denver. So I was excited when she invited me today! And now I am hooked. When we arrived the reception area was a little busy but I was greeted within a few minutes and the receptionist were super friendly. I waited about 12 minutes for my stylist to come get me from the waiting area. We started off with my hair being brushed and then we went to the washing bay where my stylist washed my hair and massaged my scalp. It felt so good!!! You can do an add-on, 15-minute massage, but you need to book that when you make the reservation. When she was done washing we went to the dry bar area and my stylist brought me a water and a small glass of champagne Your stylist will then style your hair based on the signature style you most like. I did a combination of Cosmo in Southern comfort. It looks so nice!! She did exactly what I asked for . I cannot wait to go back. I just wish there was a location closer to Georgetown. That's definitely a franchise investment opportunity. But until then, I will be making some frequent trips to the domain.

I have been coming to Drybar for a year and a half now and even have a barfly membership. I get at…read moreleast 1 to 2 blowouts a month there and at other locations across the US when I travel for work. However, I have had an inconsistent experience, both in the quality of the blowout, and in the amount of time it takes to blow my hair out. I have most times had blowouts within the allotted time with some stylists, and also experienced on occasion other stylists taking more than the allotted time. Ever since the new policy rolled out, it was suggested to me twice (once by DryBar Domain) that I needed an extended time blowout, which I would understand if 100% or even most of my blowouts took longer than the allotted time to complete. This most recent suggestion happened via text ahead of my appointment today. I made it clear that I was not available earlier to come in than the time I booked and that I've had 45 minute blowouts before and that I can blow dry and straighten my own hair in 45 minutes. They charged me for the extended blowout time anyway. I didn't want to push the issue at checkout since another woman had melted down at them about being late or something to her appointment (her own fault). I went back to check my transaction receipts for against my appointment times and accounting for the few minutes I usually have to wait for the stylist to come get me and the time that it takes to ring me up, I see that most appointments in 2025 have been completed in about 45 minutes. I have screenshots of all of this. For example, on 8/13, my appt was at 10:00 and my transaction was completed at 10:46 but on 9/6 my appointment was at 4:00 and transaction completed at 5:11. Inconsistent lengths of time. Another one that I recall is one that took a few minutes for me to be seen on 7/12. Appointment time was 4:45 and the order transaction took place at 5:40. This is 55 minutes but doesn't reflect the time I waited or the time it takes for the receptionist to apply credits before payment. Yet another appointment on 6/10 was at 3:30 with a Crown Tonic add-on (10 additional minutes). The order transaction was completed at 4:27 - 57 minutes right on time. On 4/12, I had an appointment at 5:30 and the Crown Tonic add-on (again, builds in extra 10 minutes), the transaction occurred at 6:23. Again, when you factor in wait time and transaction time at the reception, this is within the allotted time. More often than not, my hair is completed in 45 minutes but occasionally there have been stylists who have taken longer -- this, however, is a skill and/or training issue, not an issue for me to swallow in the form of an added fee. As a mixed woman with medium texture (not coarse) hair thanks to my mother's indigenous heritage, my hair only takes ME 45 minutes to blow out and straighten with an iron so I would expect someone trained in hair to do it faster. My regular stylist who does my cuts (by the way, NOT a woman of color at a high-end salon) can do my blowout, flat iron, AND cut/trim in under an hour and gives me a thorough head scrub and shampoo. This most recent blowout at DryBar left me with residue and dry flakes visible on the front of my hairline. My stylist also did not use good technique (which I've seen with my cut stylist for years) for blowing out my hair to get it straight more efficiently, which means she's repeated going over 1 section with heat, which could lead to more damage. If I can blow dry a section straight in 1-2 passes, why can't the stylists? Of course it will take 15 extra minutes to do -- again, I can blow dry my hair out straight (before flat iron or iron) in about 20-25 minutes. All of this is to say that I will be canceling my Barfly membership and will not be back after being a regular and nor will I be recommending DryBar to my black and mixed friends, primarily due to what I believe is an inherently discriminatory policy in the Extended Time policy (coming from corporate) which disproportionately affects women of color (sure, some white women with LONG hair also get penalized but let's be real). I went to DryBar to have the experience of someone else doing my hair in occasion with this shift, I'm going to do my hair myself or find another blowout bar. P.S. Also, I've recently trimmed off 3 inches from just past shoulder length hair (when straight) in the last few months and I've had hair loss issues over the last 2 years so I don't have "thick", or "long" hair at all to contend with.
