    Nice place.. seen all of the ladies with their finish hairstyles and was very impressed.. spoke to a few ladies.. they had parties to attend and one had hers done for no special reason but just because she likes her hair styled.. so if you don't want to cut our color your hair but just want to style it this is the place to do it

    I was on a long road trip to Georgia and decided to spend the night in Raleigh and get my hair done at the midtown location. I was nervous given there weren't great reviews on Yelp and other sites for the location and I wasn't sure how great they would do natural hair, but JaLissa really hooked me up. She was thorough, professional, and made it feel like a luxury experience. She saw me a little early and got out of there (with a bomb hair style) in less than an hour. It was great to get in and out with such a great experience! I HIGHLY recommend.

    Lots of space between guests and stylists to practice social distancing.

    The team at Midtown East did a fabulous job! I've been a Drybar fan since 2013. When I was traveling for work I would always go to the dry bar locations in San Francisco and San Jose and they never disappointed. I really appreciated this location practicing excellent social distancing protocols. I was getting my hair done for a date on Sunday and the stylist gave me some amazing tips on how to keep my blowout beautiful for the next day. I will most certainly be coming back to this location. This location made me feel like I was at an upscale salon!

    This is the opening weekend for this Drybar location! The Drybar chain is super popular because the customer service is always top notch. Each stylist is trained, equipped and highly qualified. There is consistency with the style you are getting, no matter who is doing the styling! You check in at the front desk and they immediately offer you a complimentary beverage. They truly make you feel like a queen here. They are prompt with appointment times and you are greeted by your stylist who takes you to your seat. You get a mini consultation when you are seated at your station. There is a helpful book with pictures you can look through, so you get the specific look you want! After you decide what look you want, you get an amazing shampoo/conditioner/head massage. Then the blow dry magic happens! You will leave happy and with a newfound blowout obsession! Oh! And while you are getting your hair done, they have romantic comedies playing on the TV in front of you! What a fun experience! I was worried about parking for this location but I stressed for no reason! They have plenty of parking! They even have spots right in front of the store!

    I got my go-to, the cosmo! I highly recommend their monthly plan--the barfly!

    I have been at hospital with my mom and not sleeping for 3 days, ran down the street to new DB (were at Duke raleigh). Ellie did a fantastic job. Her TLC and a mimosa were just what I needed. I almost wish I had something more exciting than laundry to do tonight! Ha! I love the products they use too!!

    I was disappointed in my hairstyle. It flopped the minute I left . It was not what I requested, I wanted a 50s hairstyle, and I needed some strong hairspray. The stylist was extremely sweet and kind. I loved the Drybar it was beautiful. I was going to tell her but next client arrived. I didn't want to be difficult.

    This is the best DryBar I've been to. They were super friendly and accessible. We walked in and the woman was ready to set us up for what we needed. One of us had a full wash and I had a shorter style no wash. Quick, easy, and perfect. Such nice women there.

    I've been throughly disappointed by other blowout salons in the area but I LOVE Drybar! I'm really good at styling my own hair but somehow when they do it it's 100% better! Thanks Drybar for making me feel like a celebrity every.single.time. An amazing location with lots of food nearby as well!

    The Southern Comfort. I was very happy with it!

I have only got services to upkeep my Balayage, so I am prepared to pay. I like that they greet you (a front-desk area with things to purchase), offer you a beverage (champagne or beer), hot coffee, tea, juice or water. They have great stylists, and a room in the back for hair washing, drying and just spa-like relaxation. Make your appointment on their website and get ready to be pampered!

At scheduling time, the receptionist was very nice and worked with me to find a time that fits schedules well. I was scheduled with Michaela for a Halo face framing type situation and was greeted very kindly by her and everyone else at the front desk. They offer you water and other beverages there as you arrive. There is also local crafted jewelry in the sitting area to browse. Getting back to hair, Michaela was very personable, funny, nice, and professional. The experience was nice and it feels like you're just chatting with an old friend. Honestly I probably chat too much but the story of my life LOL. They take you back to the hair washing area which is quiet and Serene, ready for relaxation. They also offer you and I mask type essential oil situation where you can pick different scents. After your hair is done washing you get processed and then you go back to your sitting area. It took a little bit to get my hair to the desired look but Michaela and the salon made it very easy to work with and get the results we were hoping for. I appreciate them for being so accommodating and ease of everything. Michaela is a great stylist and I would recommend booking with her anytime! Not only will she make your hair look better but just speaking with her makes your day better too.

On September 25, 2025, I received an email reminding me of my appointment scheduled for September 27, 2025. Immediately after receiving this email, I called the salon to cancel my appointment since there was no option to do so through the email itself. I called three times without an answer and ultimately left a voicemail requesting cancellation. Despite this, I received an email today stating that my card on file would be charged for missing the appointment. I promptly called your salon to clarify the situation and explained that I had canceled by voicemail on September 25. The person who answered the phone was dismissive, and when I spoke with the owner, I was made to feel as though the responsibility fell on me for not replying to the email or a text message. To clarify: I do not receive text messages from your salon. I did not reply to the email because I had already called and left a voicemail. It is your responsibility to check and respond to client voicemails. Additionally, I called today at 11:29 a.m. and was told I would receive a call back within 30 minutes. That call never came. This lack of professionalism is unacceptable. I respectfully request a full refund of the cancellation charge. I hope you will honor this request and reconsider how communication and customer service are handled in the future.

I met my perfect match Brandee at falls of…read moreneuse after a horrible hair bleaching that she not only fixed but turned into the results I wanted. She has now seen me through several hair changes and always delivers better than the picture not only that but she has managed to take me from a dark brown hair color to honey blonde in 2-3 sessions and my hair has never felt healthier. Additionally I am pretty lazy and I dont keep my roots maintained consistently but even after 3 months of hair growth the color still looks amazing and blended. Brandee is genuinely incredible at hair color, cuts, and is so kind and funny. She always matches my energy in terms of how much I am up for talking and on the days that I am we always have good convos. Overall Brandee always has me leaving the salon feeling happy and gorgeous and I am so lucky that I found her!!

    I would like to preface this review with the fact that I am typically not picky about haircuts, and…read moreI don't usually get upset very easily. Not to say that I am upset, just very, very disappointed. Furthermore, If I leave with something that isn't 100% meeting my expectations, I usually adapt and life goes on. However, every time I look in the mirror I find myself disappointed with my hair after getting it cut a few days ago Anyways, I have been getting my hair haircut at Salon Blu for about three years now. Overall, it is a great experience and I usually leave happy with my hair. The stylists are always super friendly and we have pleasant conversations during. It is worth mentioning that this salon has staff who have different experience levels. I have always chosen or been placed with a stylist with a high experience level, but this time I chose to take a gamble and go with someone at a "level 1"... this was where I went wrong. We had a great conversation, and I told her the exact haircut that I wanted- just a simple medium length cut with lots of layers (I had long hair). Additionally, I provided about five reference photos of the exact haircut that I wanted. I figured the haircut would be simple enough to replicate. I told her verbatim "please just not too short". I expected that she would deliver the haircut that I wanted with the information I provided and the photos. This was not the case.... my idea of a medium length haircut was erased and replaced with essentially a "long bob" ... which is very short... about 4 inches shorter than what I asked for. I really wish that she had followed my instructions of where I wanted it to be cut at. I think that she did not have enough experience and didn't consider the fact that wet hair appears much shorter once it is dry. Another item that I did not care for was that my typical 45 minute haircut took her an hour and a half to complete. I do not mind the fact that she took her time, so much as that she cut my hair entirely too short despite knowing that I wanted a medium length like the photos. I will be honest and just say it outright: my hair looks hideous now :( I left the salon feeling very sad and disappointed- only clinging to the fact that hair grows back. Despite being super upset about my hair, I will continue to go to the salon blu, but I highly recommend that anyone who goes to this place chooses a stylist at a high level. Lesson learned

I stumbled upon Lashawn's skills on Instagram and knew then that I would be satisfied after booking an appointment. I waited until I could book an appointment online and her online scheduling system is the best. Simple and seamless. I booked a crochet box braid style and little did I know that the service comes with a wash service ! All inclusive. When I arrived Lashawn was ready for me and began immediately. The wash was the best I've had. Great products, warm steam treatment while washing and conditioning. Lashawn is so skilled she detangled my hair in 2 minutes flat. That's unheard of. The days are gone when stylists would yank and wrestle with my curls and spend over a half an hour parting and detangling and wasting time. I asked for a trim and everything was perfect. I can't wait for my little girl to experience what I did today. I booked an appointment for her as well. Lashawn gave practical advice and pointers on hair care. She uses quality products that are best suited for your hair. This salon experience was more like a spa experience. You won't regret it ladies.
