Getting blowouts seasonally and for special occasions is perfect at Blo franchise locations. All of their staff delivers great service, results, and customer service - this is why I get a Blo-tab (it's okay, I also made middle school jokes in my head haha), and it's valid at any location! Each location, however, has their own vibe and parking situation. Be careful but enjoy the neighborhood vibes in each Blo. Will be back and took off one star because my appointment started late and ended late as result, so I ended up taking extra time off work. read more

Blo Blow Dry Bar - When they ask if you'd like something to drink and you respond with "coffee, please" - this beauty arrives - Blow Dry/Out Services Near Me - Houston, Texas

I went a few weeks ago and wanted a high volume blow out. I left with completely flat hair. It was horrible. Na'J is super aggressive when she brushes hair, and so much of my hair fell out during the blow out. The person who washed my hair kept talking the entire time. It wasn't relaxing at all. And she kept trying to sell me products. My start time was also 15 minutes after the appt time. Bad experience overall. Definitely don't recommend. read more

My poor interaction at this location started this morning. The person from this location who called me to confirm the appointment had poor communication and only stated she was calling from this place after I asked for her name. She was trying to confirm my appointments but also stated I booked 2 separate services. My colleague and I are in town for work and booked separate appointments for blowout services for 4:45 PM. We arrived early today at around 4:32 PM to check in. Immediately the stylist who checked us in was rude. Her delivery on informing us we had to wait was less than ideal, she told us we have to "go get some coffee and walk around and wait for our appointment time". Several clients walked in after us and were greeted with warmer reception than we received. We waited until 5:02 until we decided that we no longer wanted the service, as we have a work function to attend this night. When the initial stylist saw we were about to leave she came up to me and told me to "go to the back we're ready for you" (not acknowledging my colleague at all). We proceeded to explain we do not want the service as we have been waiting for over 20 minutes at this point past our appointment time. The stylist then told us that there is a 20 minute grace period for the stylist because of hair length (past the shoulders), extensions, and a flood forcing them to clean the salon in the morning. The entire exchange was combative. The stylist argued that "we actually have been talking for 5 minutes so when you decided to cancel it was within the 20 minute grace period" and that "your grace period stared at the time of your appointment, not before". We never made a statement about when the grace period started, we were simply informing this location we no longer wanted the service. She then said they were very fast and didn't want to charge us $50 for a no-show fee. The stylist kept trying to extend the exchange, sharing that they and the other stylist are fast. This is contradicts what she was saying before, because I have hair past my shoulders (which I put in the comments at the time of booking) and my colleague had extensions (she booked the service with extensions). It was never communicated to us that they were running behind. When my colleague asked for the policy on grace periods, this stylist could not find it. The stylist then proceeded to touch my hair without my permission, trying to show that she could do the service fast. At this point I ended the interaction and informed her "respectfully, we are cancelling and leaving". This was such a poor experience. I'm also adding a screenshot of their cancellation and late policies (taken after we left). We showed up early, checked in on time, and waiting an ample amount of time for our appointment. If we are charged for any services we will be disputing them, as we never received the booked services. read more

STOP SCROLLING -- BOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE FIRST If you are a woman of color looking for a QUALITY blowout, save yourself the time, money, and frustration: Go to https://pressedroots.com Or try https://blomedry.com/blo-katy/ Both are worth EVERY dollar. Professional, efficient, and they actually understand our hair. Now let me tell you why I will NEVER return to Blo Blow Dry Bar. I booked here last-minute before flying out for a major golf event with LIV Golf. Normally, I go to Pressed Roots, but they were fully booked--and that's the ONLY reason I ended up here. Before arriving, I called ahead, clearly explained: * I'm a Black woman * My hair is curly and medium-thick * I needed a proper blowout/straight style * Timing matters I was reassured they could handle my hair and had experience with my texture. Red Flag #1: The salon was completely empty when I arrived. Red Flag #2: What they called a "deep conditioner" was a 5-minute mask with zero real treatment. Red Flag #3: I was upsold products that were either misrepresented or ineffective. The stylist rushed the entire process. It became obvious she was trying to finish quickly rather than do the job correctly. By the time she was done: * My roots were NOT straight * My hair was puffy and fluffy, not sleek * It looked worse than when I do it myself at home When I asked her to fix it, she told me: "You asked for a blowout, not a silk press." Let's be clear: A blowout should still result in smooth, properly straightened hair--especially at the roots. She then refused to correct it, saying she "ran out of time"... Even though I called ahead and was assured timing was fine. Now let's talk about the bill: * Advertised special: ~$50 * Charged: ~$150 * Added charges for: * A "mask" I didn't ask for * A fake "anti-humidity serum" * AND tipped herself $25 on my card without permission Yes--tipped herself. The next morning, I returned: * Another stylist AND a customer both agreed my hair was not professionally done * Manager was unavailable * I called repeatedly for TWO WEEKS... no response Final Verdict: If you are a woman of color--DO NOT GO HERE. This was: * Overpriced * Rushed * Misleading * Poor quality * Completely unprofessional What should've been a $50-$75 experience turned into a $150 disaster. Save yourself the stress: Go to Pressed Roots or a salon that actually specializes in textured hair. read more

So disappointed in my service today especially since I've booked with the Blo Blow Dry bar before and had exceptional service. For starters, the person assigned to me was flustered and unprepared. I booked the blow out with the silk press and I should've advocated for someone who would be more experienced in my hair type. Very nice lady! However, she did not know how to press or silken 4B curly hair. On top of that I paid for the color wow add-on and before I left the parking lot my hair was even more frizzier. read more

Went in on 12/7 for a makeup and hair service and spent nearly $250. My hair was fine, but my makeup was awful. The makeup was streaky, uneven, and had to be completely redone when I got home while in a time crunch to get to a wedding. While receiving my service, the receptionist came up multiple times to let my stylist and artist they need to hurry and finish because the next client had arrived. The seats in the lobby were dirty and the art had spider webs with dust on it. I attempted to connect with the manager Erica multiple times, just to constantly be told she's busy and will call me back. I would highly recommend avoiding this place! read more

Service was quick and efficient with results I loved! I had a lot of glitter in my scalp from working an event and she was able to get it all out! read more

This was a complete disaster. I told the stylist exactly what I wanted, (which was volume). She shook her head and agreed with me. The next thing I know, she is straightening my hair with a hot iron. WTH! She had me turned away from the mirror so I could not see what was going on and I had just been in the hospital so I'm extremely weak (reason for a blowout). I will not be returning. I will say the other women there were nice and offered to rewash and start over, but by then I was done. read more

Shockingly disastrous.. I should have heeded the reviews. I was barely acknowledged and after 15 minutes I asked how long it would be. They said no idea until I argued with the receptionist and was finally told another 25 minutes. I waited 45 minutes. No drink, update or apology. The stylist did not give a proper consultation. He was aggressive, did not use products and fried my hair. My scalp was burning and he pulled out so much hair. It wasn't just a bad style but actually damaging. Instead of any concern about my service he complained about bad management (I'd have to agree) and badmouthed others. Receptionist couldn't have cared less. The staff needs some serious retraining. I can't believe they are in business. read more

Wow, I just have to give a shoutout to my girls, Chioma and Virginia, over at Blo Blo Dry Bar! These ladies are absolutely amazing at what they do. I've been coming here once a week for years now and they're true magicians with hair. I always leave the salon feeling amazing! They listen to what I want and somehow makes it even better Honestly, if you're in the area and need a blowout, you have to check them out! Chioma and Virginia are incredible, and I can't recommend them enough! Trust me, you won't be disappointed! read more

The website does not disclose the price for every hairstyle inside of the look book. I was under the impression the style I wanted would only be $75 with hair extension clip in installation. When I arrived, I was told the hair style was actually $100. Without standards prices published online or in person, it felt like the number was being picked at random. The manager who did my hair -- was rough -- and rushed -- treating me like I was some kind of mannequin instead of a human. If someone has been in the industry for a long period of time, they should already know in advance what techniques will naturally pull, tug, stretch, burn the scalp, or make a customer feel unhappy with the experience. It's not their first rodeo. It's not the first person they have ever done their hair before. Reggaeton music was blasting loudly like a club, and I don't any music that promotes women as sexual objects for insignificant casual use. The manager was screaming in my ear -- as she shouted to other people in the salon from her station on what they needed to do. Things like putting the music on, what to clean, and who and when to clock out. The location was understaffed for sure. From the overpriced service, rough hair handling, loud environment, there is no way I would recommend this place. The fabric chairs up front by the entrance are disgusting with how much dirt is embedded into the chairs. It's as if they haven't been cleaned ever. It's supposed to be this beautiful floral fabric pattern, but the fabric is gray from how much dirt is embedded into the fabric, clearly the fabric chairs have not been cleaned for months or years. And it shows! The retro waves looked more like just curled hair, there was not the distinctive S pattern. So the hairstyle wasn't worth the money either. It's such a shame because it's the kind of business you want to enjoy, like, and buy the service but the prices and process make it very difficult to want to return back. read more

It was quick service compared to the one in the Heights. I liked that they offered me tea, coffee, water while I waited. They have limited parking outside. Staff was knowledgeable and I will be back! read more

Love every visit. I've had a membership for over a year now and it's been so convenient to help me get through events. My blow outs last days, the staff is so friendly and the app scheduling makes my life so easy. For a fam wedding I took my cousins and they had a great time & felt so glam. read more

The BEST experience at Post Oak! From the front desk staff assisting me over the phone for a same Saturday morning appointment to lovely Maya, whose blow out held up perfectly for a special wedding during what turned out to be a humid, muggy, rainy evening in Houston, our visit to Blo Blow at Post Oak could not have been better. Thank you Maya and Post Oak!! read more

Absolutely terrible experience dealing with Blo. I booked an appointment and was going to make it. Our flight had a mechanical issue so I called. No one answered so I could reschedule for later. I get text from there and say I need reschedule. Crickets... no text back no call back. A day later a 65$ charge without allowing me to reschedule because that's an option. Called and finally got front desk explained situation and was told they would refund me. 4 days later no refund on my card. I'm going to call and let my cc company know it's fraud at this point. Figured they handled business professionally and was blown away when I found out how crocked they are and how they do everything to just get cancellations so they get free money. I wasn't ever canceling appt. Went to Dry Bar and they did an amazing job and told me I should steer clear of this location multiple customers have come from there and shared horror stories. Bottom line don't promise refunds and then go silent and think customers will forget. We won't. Sharing this with my sales division so they never book here and contacting credit card company now read more

Terrific service & my hair looked super. Perfect for any special occasion. The staff is very professional

I am visiting for a formal wedding at the Post Oak Hotel so I really wanted to bring my A-Game. Rania's entire team was welcoming from the minute I arrived. Ashley did a beautiful job shampooing and conditioning my hair. Bianka styled my hair with glamorous volume and curls. I had my make up done with an amazing Make up artist while my hair was being blown out. I feel so gorgeous tonight! Thank you read more

Loved love loved my makeup by Lowra!! Even though she took me a little late, she was very apologetic and kind during the entire session. I gave three stars because you can tell the manager over books their staff. There was no receptionist to great me while all the staff were busy with clients. I was then not taken in until past 30 minutes my appointment time. Not only are many of the techs running nonstop, I had management come by a few times to rush my appointment. I think to have a better experience, the staff needs to be treated more with respect, given their breaks, and given time with their clients. Money may be priority, but staff wellness should be taken more into consideration. I was only here for two hours and I can tell the staff work very hard while management is just sitting in the office. read more

Horrible! Ive heard bad things about this place but didn't believe it could that bad. I called to make an appt and the owner answered the phone. She was the rudest most awful person I have ever spoken to. She thinks she's all that and she's far from! I don't recommend this place based on how the owner speaks customers . I know someone who said they continue to charge people the membership even after they cancel several times . She's probably going to come on here and respond to this review with her nasty bad attitude. I don't care though .. I find it to be comical actually. read more

The worlds worst customer service of all time! Do yourself a favor and go to the Montrose location. I mistakenly made an appointment here and called immediately once I realized I made a mistake. Of course, no answer even through I called during business hours. I later received a text requesting "why" I called. I informed them I made a mistake and needed to switch locations. They "agreed" just to walk out of my Montrose appointment to a no show fee from this terrible location and team. Do better! read more

Four stars for hair, but that is due to my last appt being a 5. The previous blowout/style was a 3 and a 4. The ambiance and overall staffing trumps the dry bar at uptown park which has been tragic the past three visits. So it's about on par with what dry bar used to be, hit or miss averaging a 4. Makeup. Yikes. A 2.5. Had to go back to get it fixed and it was still not even very good. Legitimately, I felt like I could have easily done a better job. There are so many bright lights that shine in your eyes, I didn't notice until I got home that my eyeliner was incredibly uneven, like how did anyone let me walk out looking like this. read more

Franchise owner, Rania is rude, aggressive, and illegally running her business. I arrived on time for my appointment and as I sat down with a stylist to get a ponytail, Rania ran over and started yelling at me that the service would be $85 for a simple ponytail instead of the $35 service I booked that apparently only includes curls. Due to the abrasiveness and bait and switch pricing differing from the website, I left without service. Rania said she would not charge me, yet she absolutely did charge me AND it's a reoccurring charge. It is highly illegal and has been reported to my credit card, the BBB, the Corporate Blo Bar. Rania should not be allowed to run a business. read more

The service was great! I walked in for my 5 o'clock appointment & the stylist wasted no time to get started. The scalp massage was my favorite part. I was skeptical being that my hair is natural but they handled it well & styled my hair to perfection. Definitely booking again read more

This salon is great! I was to make an appointment morning of and the salon had great communication. They have a wonderful location with high end styling products. Mia my stylist was a DREAM!

Also she's the sweetest person to chat with and she made my blowout experience more than worth the money. read more

Because the guy TONY that was suppose to do my hair at 4:45 had walked out of work early knowing that I had an appt. at 4:45 for a huge event (my 60th birthday. They called him and told him to come back and he said NO. For 20 yrs. I managed spas and I would have FIRED HIS ASS IN A MINUTE. I WILL FINISH MY GIFT CARD AND NEVER GO HERE AGAIN!!!! I will be going back to blow out bar. I have never had my hair done by a tech drinking champagne either.... that was a first. The Owner is never there and could give two shits about this business. She still hasn't called me to apologize for Tony not being there to do my hair. This place is so inconsistent with their ppl. It's like a revolving door for ppl who blow dry hair. Never the same ppl. One day Laura did my hair and then she was gone(quit). Then appt. With Tony who just walks out knowing he has an appt. THIS PLACE IS A JOKE AND I WILL FINISH THIS REMAINING 50$ on my gift card and take my money elsewhere. Such a shame when you are in a PRIME $$$ location! read more

I had my hair done on NYE for an event and now two days later, my hair smells burnt to crisp. Even after I washed it!!! I usually go to Dry Bar and my hair lasts for at least four days. Not at this Blo bar! My hairdresser was sweet, but I feel like they felt rushed to do as many people as quickly as possible and that meant burning my hair to get it done faster.. I do not recommend. Go to the Dry Bar down the street. read more

i never ever EVER write reviews. I like to give someone the benefit of doubt that they're having a bad day. But that doesn't mean I'll be treated like an animal and take it lying down. Today was a horrifying experience for me at Blo! I walked in to my appointment to be greeted by Carlos. Who took me to the shampoo station and was aggressive, going at lightening apeed like he had somewhere to be. It's alright, but i deserve better. I did not pay notice thinking thats just how he may be. Then when combing out, he's pulling my hair. And when i ask him to be gentle he smirks at me. Not kidding, i wish i was recording him. His looked like she wanted to slap him right there for his behaviour. Goes on to ask another stylist to come help him, while putting the blow dry setting on god knows what level. I asked him to turn it down a notch since it was burning my scalp to which he made a nasty face at me and asked his colleague to take over. I said,"thank you, you're doing me a favor by leaving." And he said 'good riddance' and walked away. Is this how your salon functions? Cos all i have to do is call the Indian Embassy and have him and your salon filed for racism at best. Cos that's what it felt like. The way he was behaving, i felt like i was there to get the blow for free. Or if i was a homeless person with no dignity. If only he knew what somebody with a diplomatic passport can do and not to mess with clients. I could have been a jerk and snapped, but stayed silent so i can show him who i am later. I will speak to the Consulate General at the Indian Embassy tomorrow and have action taken. Will definitely not tolerate a bitch like him treat me like a dog. He will regret this. read more

After one visit I was HOOKED! I ended up becoming a member and my hair has never looked or felt better.

this place is not good when it comes to booking and STICKING with appointment times. every time me and my family have come here they are always rescheduling the appointment telling us to come earlier or that they actually cant do it at the end of the day. also there is barley anyone in the store itself i have seen max 3 ppl inside the salon. the hairstyling itself is good and they do a good job i think but overall will not be coming back since they wanna be finicky with their appointment times. read more

Please do not waste your time and money going to this "establishment." Not only do they use terrible products that leave your hair stiff and full of build up but the reception is inept for lack of more descriptive character. And "Isabel" the manager had horrible customer service skills and was completely and utterly rude and condescending. read more

I went to this pace on a Sunday afternoon with a friend who had an appointment and asked if they could squeeze me in as well.... the response we received was a flat out no. There was apparently only one woman working at the salon and the woman working there said she could not attend to both of us. The worst customer service!!! She was very visibly annoyed by us and gave suggestions for another blow dry bar... While I understand that they were understaffed, it made no sense to me. There was a second woman sitting in the salon, who appeared to work there too. AND she flat out said no, turning away our business. I wouldn't have minded to wait if she could have done both of our hair separately (she didn't even suggest it) or call another employee to come in or even try and book an appointment at another time. Awful, unprofessional, and bad customer service. read more

So I really wanted to give this place 5 stars--I'm sure everybody does when they choose to come here, spend their money and walk out feeling like a million bucks! I didn't feel that way when I left. I came to just get a simple "down"-do for a wedding. I gave myself well over 1.5 hours before the wedding, thinking I'll be a little late (nbd, it was across the street). I waited close to 40 minutes before I even got in the chair (yes, I had an appt). I was reassured that I'd be out in 30 minutes... but the time just kept slipping. Without going into detail, it took about 1.5 hours from that point to simply get my hair clean and loosely curled with a few Bobby pins. It's like I was having one strand of hair dried at a time, it was dragging so long! I know I could've done that at home in less than half the time, but with the time and money wasted, I expected something better than I could do--still wrong. There was no body or life to my hair. Left a bit disappointed. My stylist was a sweet guy and I know he was just trying his best, but for now I'm going to just stick to a simple hairdo at home as opposed to "treating" myself. read more

I love Blo Post Oak! I've been to almost every Blowdry bar in town. I love that you can call and make an appointment unlike other places. There is a personal connection here and all of the stylists are awesome. Im always offered something to drink as soon as I walk in and I never wait long (this is a huge bonus for me as I'm always pressed for time!) There's always parking (another big plus!) and everyone is friendly. I definitely feel like I found a second home here. read more

Loved it!! I have curly/dry/frizzy hair and always feel nervous when I go to the salon for a simple blow-dry, because most hairstylists don't know how to treat it. Brittany did an AMAZING job! It took her less than 40min to give the best volume and waves despite my hair length. I heard the other stylists are also GREAT! The products they use are also great!!! I highly recommend this place. Will certainly Be back and perhaps try their makeup bar. read more
