I got the Southern Comfort blowout. My hairdresser was incredibly sweet, she smiled the whole time and did an amazing job. I loved the products they used, and I always appreciate a great blowout. Everyone was so friendly. Parking in front of the store is limited, but there's a large garage right next door. Highly recommend this place! read more

See all

I called beforehand and asked two very important questions: Do you do ethnic hair? Do you wash and dry weaves. They said yes to both, so I scheduled an appointment. I arrive to see all black stylists so I'm optimistic. The stylist sits me down then proceeds to say "so we don't have a sit under dryer to dry your hair... do you want wet braids?" I confusedly said no I don't want to leave the salon with wet braids. So then she says "ok well we have a way of washing your extensions without getting your braids wet" meaning that they wouldn't WASH MY SCALP. I ask who goes to get their hair washed and doesn't wasn't their scalp cleaned. And why wouldn't you tell me you don't have a sit under dryer when I spoke with you on the phone so I didn't waste my time coming here?! She tells me "well some people don't mind having wet braids..." wet braids lead to mildew in your hair. And regardless of what people are ok with, as licensed cosmetologists, you should want to provide healthy services and/or make it clear your limitations before you waste people's time. I should have just continued to assume that dry bar wasn't for black people. Instead they proved that to me themselves. read more

If you want a quick wash and style for under an hour this is the place to be. I really appreciate how my stylist is always ready for me as soon as I walk in. The products are decent and I've liked my style each time I go. There's always good music playing and movies on the tv for your entertainment. Ample free parking as well. Def a go to for me when I need something quick and in between styles. read more

As someone that frequents Drybar in multiple cities, this one loses a star for me because it doesn't follow the normal model. This location doesn't have mimosas like the others, now I'm not saying that makes or breaks the service, but it definitely adds to my experience. Also the lady at the front desk wasn't comparable to the other locations I've been to. She lacked the "umph" and kindness I expect from your first touch point in a business. Aside from the non experience aspect. This was the best blow out I got from Drybar. So all credit to my stylist. She was super efficient and understood my needs especially as a black woman. She did wonders on my shampoo and damn could she make a LASTING curl. She was attentive all the way until I walked out the door. She even caught me as I put on my jacket and got those last few fly aways. All and all, the hair service was amazing and I'll be back, but I do think there should be some improvements that uphold the Drybar standard. read more

Drybar Baltimore at the Rotunda - Blow Dry/Out Services Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Waited over 20 minutes for our appointment because there was no one in the shop! Not a single stylist or customer. We booked this appointment weeks in advance, how do you not have a stylist assigned and ready to go? On top of that, this location doesn't offer the typical Drybar experience as some other reviews have mentioned. No movies playing, no drinks offered. Instead there was screamo blasting on the TVs. I definitely want to hear screamo blasting at 10 am on a Sunday... How relaxing. The stylist finally popped out of nowhere and wasn't friendly. Definitely would not go to this location again. I know drybar is very location-based so I will continue to frequent other locations. I will give it a few stars for how happy my friend was with her results. read more

Worst experience ever! I booked an appointment and was told to the stylist might be "running behind." After 20 minutes, I asked if it would be much longer, and they assured me they were almost ready. Another 15 minutes went by, and they still were not ready for me. after 40 minutes, I asked if I could revive a discount for the wait, and after a lengthy discussion with the manager, was informed that no, I would not. No one even really apologized For the excessive wait. I don't recommend this salon at all. Extremely unprofessional staff. read more

I booked an up do here for a wedding I was attending. I wanted something fairly simple, a low bun, some loose framing pieces in the front. While my stylist was kind, I don't think he knew what to do. I asked for a few changes to my hair and he even brought in someone else to help out. I left feeling like it looked okay and I could fix it up when I got home but it literally fell out on my 5 minute drive home. I tried to fix it, but wasn't able to and had to take the entire thing out. I had mentioned multiple times to the stylist that it felt very loose and I was worried it was going to fall out- it was even falling out as they were styling. I asked for a refund and was told they "don't do that." They offered me a free blowout that I will likely never use because I will probably not return. Pretty disappointed overall. read more

I booked two last minute appointments at this location and both times I went in without an idea of what I wanted. Both times I walked out looking amazing! I wish I knew my stylists names but I would 10/10 book them again! I loved it so much I even got the barfly package! One of my appointments was at 800am and everyone was super nice despite the time! Great vibes all around. read more

Love me a good drybar location!! You won't be disappointed with whoever you get there!

My experience at this location was amazing! Amira, my stylist, was incredibly patient (I have a lot of hair) and took her time! My hair looked beautiful at the end. I would definitely re-book and return to this location. This was my hair for my baby shower so I really appreciated the effort! read more

Very pleasant experience with Sadya. I was greeted and seen promptly at arrival. I was the only person being serviced and it was nice to have my hair done in a large, well decorated empty salon. I low key thought this must be what it's like to be famous :) I explained the look I was going for (opposed to selecting a style from the look book) and my stylist didn't disappoint. I described how my last experience at a different location was not memorable and I feel like my stylist wanted to right the wrong. I had let my monthly blow out accumulate because I wasn't impressed with my results from the other location. However, today was such a positive experience that I booked a return appointment for the near future. If you are a textured/coiled hair girl like me, I highly recommend this location. read more

Lovely receptionist, lovely stylists but the three times I have been, it's been close to 100.00 with add on services. Style does not last. Ever. Period. The end. Won't waste my $$ ever again. read more

I was genuinely so excited to try the new store because I had had a previous experience in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and it was great a 10/10. I arrived to my appointment a few minutes before my scheduled service and the receptionist greeted me and offered refreshments. I could have sworn that wine was usually offered but I guess they only had water and tea at this location. Fine, that doesn't make or break my experience. From the get go it seemed like the receptionist was more concerned with getting her takeaway pizza from a place next door then actually working and being at the desk. I waited an hour for my appointment which was scheduled at 6:15 PM. At no point did anyone say, we fucked up on scheduling or we are backed up right now please come back another time. There were only three people actually doing hair. There were two other ladies waiting to get their hair done before me, which were being attended to by two stylists. The third stylist was working on another client that was there prior to me going in. It became evident that as the hour of waiting passes by that the two other stylists were going slow as possible on their clients so they wouldn't have to take me. I finally get grabbed by the third stylist around 7:15, mind you I was early to my appointment, Drybar closes at 8. I finally go through the whole process and said I just want a plain blowout to hurry and get out there. At the end of my service my stylist says is it okay if some of your sections are curly? I said sure, I just wanted to get out of this place after like 2 hours. This might be one of the worst blowouts I have ever had. A large portion of the back of my head was left curly, and my hair has so much product in it is feels tacky - like glue not tacky tacky. I've never had a blowout where I dont like to run my fingers through my hair but here I am, already waiting for my next wash so I can get all of this shit out of my hair. Drybar this is an actual disgrace, happy to share a picture of my "hairstyle". Go to an actual salon and get a blowout instead of dealing with this mess. read more

I frequent this location. The manager, Tiarra, is AMAZING. She's so kind and gentle handed while also making my hair look amazing. I haven't been in a month because I have braids but I'll be back to see you ladies soon. Happy Holidays! Xoxo read more

I was nervous after reading the reviews, but a friend and I decided to give it a shot and book last minute updos for a wedding we were attending. I've seen some reviews where people were kept waiting long past their appointment times, but I only needed to wait about two minutes while my stylist prepared her station. Everyone working was friendly and accommodating. I got compliments on my hair all night and the style held up flawlessly to dancing, rain, and humidity. read more

Great service, fast and beautiful blowouts. I like the ease of online booking of walk ins with the service Nice location and great stylists. read more

Today was my first time at the dry bar was wonderful! I will be back in 2 weeks. Staff were awesome! read more

I had a blow out at this Drybar location recently, and it was fine. Nothing special, but it did the job! Convenient location since I can walk over (there's parking in the garage at the Rotunda though), so I'm sure I'll be back anytime I'm too lazy to do my own hair for an occasion! Fine experience. read more

I hope people find this review useful!! I've come to this particular drybar location several times now and always had a pleasant experience. I typically get a Mai Tai and have always left feeling confident, ready for my next event! The only reason I didn't put five stars is because of the waiting time, which is to be expected at any hair salon. I'm taken anywhere from on time to 45 minutes later. Bring a book and give yourself a grace period so you aren't running around after. read more

Incredibly rude service from the receptionist, Erin. Save your money and don't support this location. It is awful.

I received a blow out and scalp massage from a stylist from this location. I had two weddings to attend in one weekend. The stylist provided me with the hair style I requested. For the second wedding, it started raining like crazy as I was walking to the ceremony site. Once it stopped raining I thought for sure my hair was super frizzy. Turns out the stylist used the perfect products because my hair lost a little curl but it still looked amazing! Major shoutout! read more

Would not recommend. I have fine, long hair and asked for a blowout to give volume to the top part of my hair for a headshot I had scheduled later that day. The stylist just brushed out my hair and added some waves to the bottom. No volume at all added, walked out looking like I just got my hair brushed. Really had higher hopes. read more

I had a really great experience with Jessica! She was personable, kind, and did an awesome job on my blowout! I have super fine hair so I asked for a lot of volume (knowing it would fall out later in the day) and boy did she give me volume!! read more

I am at a lost for words for my latest experience at this DryBar. It HEAVILY depends on who your stylist is with the quality of your service. My hair came out worse when I left than when I came in and I was of course still charged for the service. Allegedly my stylist name was Maci but for some reason no one knew. I requested Crystal to do my hair from a previous top-tier experience I had with her- though no one cared to let me know from the front desk that I booked outside of her availability and that she wouldn't be there. read more

Drybar is the best! This location was amazing, comfortable, and so fun. The look book is always so helpful!

Hey! Are you a black female with relaxed hair? Do you want to be made fun of, ostracized and have your hair ripped out?! If that sounds like an amazing way to spend $55 PLEASE come to dry bar. My scalp hurts from how the " stylist" I use that word lightly brutalized me. She kept pulling and pulling and refused to use an actual brush. She used this comb attachment made for people without actual ability. It ripped my hair out more and more. And she kept pulling and pulling. She also was making faces and a general displeasure to be around. She dropped the attachment ON THE FLOOR and didn't even wipe it off. Can you get Covid in the hair? If so I probably have it. i am soooo sorry that me and my hair wanted some attention. Everyone around me had a brush used and a soft touch. She treated my hair like it did something to her. I've had so many blow outs and never had an issue but today I made the mistake of walking into Dry bar.. it is 2022.. if you don't have stylists that can handle chemically straightened hair then maybe put on your site. BLOW DRY for people with super easy thin hair. If any texture don't come in! It will save people the embarrassment. As a first responder I'm soooo glad I get to be treated like a 10th rate citizen. My head hurts, my hair is fried from her inability to use heat protector before using a flat iron like a rookie. I will never go back here and it's fine . I just want all other girls with texture hair to save their money. You won't leave, humiliated, wirh a headache and hair missing. Oh and my hair isn't even dry. Thanks again! read more

Drybar Baltimore at the Rotunda - Friend hair - Blow Dry/Out Services Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

My stylist was amazing, I love what she did with my hair and she was very pleasant to talk to. Unfortunate that the owner does not allow alcohol in this location, I was very much looking forward to a mimosa while I got my blowout, and was getting even more excited about it seeing the silhouettes of champagne glasses on the windows, but my excitement was shattered when I was told they only serve water and coffee at that particular location due to the owner's personal beliefs. If I would have known that she was forcing her choices on paying customers, I would have spent my money elsewhere. read more

I love going to get my hair done at DryBar! Jessica is my stylist. She is an expert in natural hair care. I have a tender scalp and she is very gentle. Jessica always makes sure I am comfortable and is always pleasant. I am so glad I know her. It's hard finding a stylist who can work well with my hair texture. See you soon Jessica! read more

Drybar Baltimore at the Rotunda - Styled by Jessica for my birthday! - Blow Dry/Out Services Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Since the pandemic started a lot of blow dry bars around the area where I live have shut down and I needed to get my hair done for a special event. Stumbled upon this location through Yelp and had an amazing experience. Super easy to make the appointment online. I was running a little late and the staff was very understanding and helpful. My stylist was Diamond and she did a great job! Showed her a pic of the style I wanted and my hair looked fantastic and lasted for days! Will def be returning when in the area again. read more

I don't often leave reviews, but this experience warranted one. I arrived to Drybar with my friend for our 5pm appointments at 4:45pm. We were greeted and asked if we would like a refreshment, which we both passed on. They said they were just waiting for the previous client to be finished so we could both be taken back together. The previous client was only being dried at 4:45, so we said we might as well get started as we had somewhere to be at 6:30. My guest was taken back at 5:05 (for her 5pm) and absolutely loved her blow out. She was finished by 5:30. Her technician then went on to take another client EARLY for her appointment as I sat waiting. Finally slightly after 5:30, I was taken by another tech. My blow out appointment took over 1hr (mind you, we had somewhere to be at 6:30 and when scheduling were told to expect 45 min.....). There were periods of time the technician was yanking the brush through my hair. My hair looked like it does most days when I blow it out myself at home using my Dyson, I was not impressed at all, but again we were running late so I didn't have time to be picky. We then were late to our prior engagement, and my hair had completely fallen to straight by 9pm, when it usually can hold a curl for 3+ days when done at home. I would not recommend this establishment. read more

This was my first time going to DryBar and it did not disappoint! Cambria did an awesome job and I am definitely coming back next time I need a blow out! read more

While their blow dries may be wonderful, their scheduling is far from it. I had an appointment scheduled days in advance to get my hair styled for an important event and was informed less than 24 hours in advance that one of the stylists was injured and my appointment was no longer available. They were completely unwilling to work with me to keep my original timeslot even though I explained that I had a reception to go to and couldn't move my time, and when I complained I was told to speak to the owner. If you have somewhere to be and need your appointment time honored, this is not the place for you. read more

From out of town for a wedding. The young woman who did my hair was very sweet but very inexperienced. Did not know how to do beachy waves. More important, she did not use any heat protection. Someone else did my daughter's hair at the same time. Instead of waves, she straightened it, looked like she never had it done. My friend had her hair done there the day before and it turned her gray hair yellow in places. Plus, the young woman at the front desk had a nasty attitude. Do not recommend this place. read more

My daughter booked me a blowout a couple weeks ago, it was a horrible experience my stylist smelled like straight up marijuana and the service was so fast I was shocked. This was such a rushed service my hair looked mediocre . Will not be coming back here. If you want to come get second hand high with your stylist and a mediocre rushed blowout. Look no further this is the place for you. read more
