I was not offered anything. I also noticed the other two stylists working on girls ASKED them how they wanted their hair, with curled ends/blow out. My stylist just said "more volume?" And that was it...... After she blow dryed my hair and said we were finished, I asked her if she could curl one side of my hair more as it did not look the same as the other side and she acted like I was asking her for a billion dollar I've been here once before for my makeup and the artist did a great job which is why I came back. But this experience has def left a bad taste in my mouth.

The shop is lively with girl talk and good old school r&b music playing in the back. It gives old school beauty shop vibes which I love. I came in on a Tuesday, which is a discounted silk press day. I added a trim also. Shay had my hair pressed in under an hour and a half. I love how my hair came out and the ladies were an excellent time to be around. They offer you a free drink of choice with your appointment and even gel eye bags when at the bowl. I had about two drinks before leaving and was feeling nice! The shop is decorated so cute with pink bubble chair, a lip shaped couch and overall girlie aesthetic. If you need a place to get a blow out or silk press on the fly choose here.

She guided me through getting an add on for a protectant sealant since my hair has been frizzy when styling and I recently dyed it, offering that glossy look.

I purposely went to Drybar to avoid having to style, wash my hair, or use products and it lasted for 4 days! I was Rodeo ready. Thank you to the Drybar team, Rice Village is where it's at.

STOP SCROLLING -- BOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE FIRST…read more 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.

I booked online but followed up on the phone because I had some questions. The woman I spoke with was friendly and helpful. Ongele was also very friendly and easy to talk to. She has a very chill vibe. I showed her photos of what I thought I would like, but made it clear that I wasn't looking for a big change at my first appointment. She completely agreed with me and said she preferred to get to know me first. This was definitely going in the right direction. We chatted while she cut my hair and then she gave me some pointers on drying and styling it and when she was done....OMG! It was exactly what I wanted - actually no - it was better than what I wanted! I literally couldn't have been happier. AND....I think I'll be able to reproduce the look at home, thanks to her instructions. I would highly recommend Ongele at Shine in the Heights!
