Blo Blow Dry Bar

I have been a satisfied customer of the Blo Blow Dry Bar for many years!   This bar originated in Montrose and has recently relocated to The Heights, but it’s the same owners and same staff.  Katherine has been a favorite stylist of mine. She is able to style my hair quickly and easily when others have been challenged.  I always have lasting results with her.  In the past 6 months, I have had great experiences with Gustavo as well.  I am so glad to have found this bar and the consistency that they have provided over the years.  I have tried other locations, but the stylists at this location have been able to meet my expectations.

I have been here 2x as I am just a visitor to Houston. I’ve had the pleasure of having my hair washed and styled by Jesse. He gives a superb wash and perfect blow dry. I have a lot of textured curly hair and he handles it like a pro! Highly recommend Blo and specifically Jesse!

I have been coming to blo for 8 years as a loyal customer. Of lately their service has desperately been slipping and I will no longer be returning. There have been several occasions where I have asked for a specific look and it is not executed as requested. At one point I had a hairstylist facetiming someone during my shampoo/conditioning and head massage. The last straw for me was today. I had booked a dry-style with clip in extensions added on for my maternity pictures. I had scheduled my own makeup and photography as well. When I booked my appointment two months prior to my appointment I requested a specific artist to be with me as I am comfortable with them and their work. I confirmed last week that I would have the artist. I called today 3 days before my apppintment to be only be told the artist was booked with someone else and to change my time. I requested to speak to the manager and they said the same thing. I requested to have the owner Katie call me at some point today. None the less, I cancelled as loyal customers are not a priority. They promise and do not deliver. I do not recommend going here as the business is ran vastly different than compared to in the previous years.

If I could select zero stars I would based on customer service alone. I made an appointment this morning for which I received no email confirmation and made an honest mistake missing the appointment when I thought it was for 12:30 instead of 11:30. I called and spoke with Steven who said there was nothing he could do about the charge. I asked for a manager just to voice my concerns as this was my first time booking at this location and he said he was they would tell me there was nothing they could do either. When I asked again, he then said he was the manager and became short and rude with me. He said he’d waive the 65.00 charge but my bank account was charged for that amount. I called to verify why that amount and my calls were screened and not answered. They begin to send them directly to voicemail. I have never been treated like I wasn’t a human being who could make a mistake and I would never treat a potential customer this way. I understand policies but exceptions can be made as I honestly didn’t realize the error. Really hurt by this and won’t be visiting Blo Blow Bar again.

Vivian and Susan are AMAZING. They clean your scalp and it feels actually clean. Other dry bars have never washed my hair properly. This place knows what they are doing and how to work with your hair to make it look good.

The Social Chair

I had both my hair and my makeup done here for my boyfriend’s senior prom. Everything was prone amazingly. Amy did my make up and made sure I liked everything before she let me go. I don’t remember who did my hair, but she was also so good and even changed my hair style a little bit to better suit the braided look. Not only the stylists, the lady at the front desk was very friendly. I was highly impressed and I will be back.

Had a horrible experience at this place , went in some days prior to the day we were supposed to go to a wedding ,just to make sure they can do a simple blow out and just a simple curl with a side braid , they were %100 positive that they can do it. Got the appointment for my mom and I , they did soooo bad that we had to come home take a shower and do our hair again ourselves.
Not recommend to anyone.👎

I had hair and makeup done for a wedding. It was a fabulous experience. I will be back. I had many compliments on my hair, Crystal. Everytime someone said something, I turned around so they could see the stunning back!! Thank you!!!

I've been to the Social Chair twice and have been thoroughly impressed both times! They did my wedding hair/make-up, and then I had a blowout for date night a couple weeks. I left feeling like a million bucks both times! I love the free drink with any service! Will definitely come back for any pampering needs!

I highly recommend choosing The Social Chair for your wedding hair & makeup! Amy is so easy to work with and she made the whole morning flow smoothly. She made my bridesmaids, mom, and I feel so beautiful. Their space is beautiful and it starts your wedding day out on a bright and calm note. Photo credit to Joy Chambers Photography.

Drybar - Uptown Park

I decided to splurge on a blowout with a scalp massage for a wedding, and it was a great experience!

I really enjoyed the fact that I didn't have to worry about fixing my hair myself or getting too hot and sweaty with my curling iron in my bathroom. It was easy to book a time to come in, and my stylist was available almost as soon as I arrived (and I got champagne!) I really appreciated that it wasn't too loud and that the entire facility was very clean. My hair turned out great and my curls lasted through the entire night.

I felt the downsides were the price (like having to add on a scalp massage) and the limited parking nearby.

This was my first time ever visiting a Drybar. My husband and I were in town for a wedding and I decided to treat myself by getting my hair done. I was NOT disappointed. Dannie did my hair and she was incredible. She made me feel like a human again. She was so kind and knowledgeable when it came to different ways to take care of my hair. I’ll definitely be back if only just to visit Dannie.

Had a seamless experience getting a birthday blowout here! Service was friendly and everyone made me feel comfortable. My stylist listened to what I liked and my hair came out exactly how I wanted. I will definitely be back anytime I need a blowout!

Will never return for so many reasons. Wasn’t greeted when I walked in. But soon as another person comes in they were welcomed with a smile.

I’m at the shampoo bowl and the woman who did my hair Dannie kept massaging the conditioner on the temples of my face & not my hair, Tried to leave that alone.

Then to make all matters of worse. She was so rough with me head that she pulled my earring out and it went in the damn drain.
I just got my ear pierced a month ago. diamond stud gone! No apology nothing.

Lastly, as she finishes up my hair. She ask me “how do I want my part because the part is throwing me me off” I guess because I have an eddie.

Disgusted!!!!!! Will never return. Brand new diamond stud GONE!

I kept it EXTREMELY professional for the sake of others and guest. But someone needs to contact me immediately and reimburse me. Or this won’t end well.

What a waste of money! I couldn’t tell you the girls who did my hair - name, because she never told me. She didn’t speak. She left to go wash my hair without inviting me.  She’s was unfriendly. She was mechanical. When I said I was unhappy at check out, and said would leave a negative review - the clerk told me to DO what I wanted do. No one there cares about your reviews.  My appointment was at 10:45 am on Labor Day. This place used to be so classy. Not anymore. I won’t be back.

Paid $90 for a BLOWOUT/ hot tool but all I got was a blow dry/ hot tool. There a difference between just blow drying your hair then taking a round brush to actually do a blow out. I could have blow dry my hair at home for FREE. Not to mention the stylist burning my head 6 times and then says “ok this is the last time”. Soaked up my whole back in the sink during the wash & knowing I have weft extensions in the stylist was not handling my hair with “proper care” pulling at my extensions way to rough, etc.. i would not recommend this place at all, what happen to a good blow out bar? I mean seriously, unprofessional and very disappointed. I never leave reviews ever but this has to be the worst experience I’ve ever had.

Chioma provided the best experience.  She was very patient and kind considering the amount of hair I have! She did an amazing job straightening my thick course hair to silky straight, which is hard to come around! Will be back and recommend to go to Chioma.

I cannot even count the number of times we have gone to have my daughters hair done. Every visit she feels so special by the way she is treated and will always make requests for Daddy to take her to have her hair done at Blo. We have also utilized the makeup folks for very difficult Halloween makeup and prosthetics that consistently win Halloween for us.  Take it from me, we never hesitate to come back!

Blo was a horrible experience, for the Location being so upscale, in the post oak area! The owner Rania, is aware of the mold and how it has made people sick! The city gets paid off by her for them not to fine her! She is rude and the staff is under staffed and not trained properly! Blo corporate need to get out there ASAP.

I made reservations for 3 people for the same time and this location accommodated all of us. They were really nice and professional. They offered us drinks and took their time to create the exact look each of us wanted. The place was clean and a fun ambiance. This is perfect for a girls day or just to treat yourself. I really loved the results of my blow dry and style. Thank you all for great service!

Drybar - River Oaks

This was my first time ever stopping at a DryBar. I am on vacation and didn't want to spend time to do my hair after battling with this Texas heat. I made a same day appt and was seen on time. The staff was polite but my stylist Allysa (I think that is how you spell it) was absolutely amazing. I have really thick, long, and curly hair so I was unsure of how my hair would turn out but she did amazing. I would definitely recommend!

Hair looked so good but omg the blow out legit lasted 10 minutes, honestly maybe even less. I work about a mile away and when I got back to work my hair was completely frizzed up and flat. I wanted to scream cry. It was so sad. I have extremely curly and frizzy hair that NEEDS product. Unfortunately, my stylist didnt use a single product besides a little bit of hair spray. Any one who has curly hair and lives in Houston, with the humidity, knows this is a recipe for disaster. Put it up in a bun to salvage what I could at work and then once I got home had to put product in and basically re- do it. Had a first date that night and this made me so self conscious and nervous about my hair. It was awful. Also, this is my second time at this Drybar and both times I had to at least wait 20 minutes before hand, please take this into account when you are scheduling for an event right after!

I feel like one star is an extravagance. Lordy! I usually go to the Drybar in uptown. I thought I’d save time and grab a visit here. MISTAKE. “Zee” didn’t give me the smooth blow out I asked and paid for. My hair is frizzy and fly away.  I look ridiculous. All she  talked about was how she is moving to Austin “to open a new Drybar”. Austin, I wish you luck. It’s infuriating to come to a place for a style only to have to go home and do it yourself. I love Drybar, but this one is the pits. Seriously, don’t even consider it. I told several people I was not happy. They asked me how they could fix it. Since they had no idea and my expectations for any hair skill was already very low, I refused.  What a horrible experience and colossal waste of money. Zee you are not good at hair! Shame on you Drybar!

My hair was very puffy. You have to really watch out and make sure they flatten your hair and small sections if you’re African-American.

Staff is wonderful and I always leave happy with my hair, my one note is that they often run pretty late, usually 15 minutes but sometimes closer to 30-45 which can be frustrating.

Drybar - Rice Village

I had an amazing experience at Drybar in Rice Village Houston! My blowout was perfect, quick and lasted all week while I was in town for a work convention. I literally came straight from the airport and it was just what I needed! I loved my stylist and wish I could take her back to NY with me. She was the sweetest and so great to talk to. Thank you!

This place is the perfect spot for a weekend getaway! The prices are affordable, and the quality of service is excellent for a weekend hair. Muskaan did a good job. What I really liked was that she didn't overheat my hair, the heat was perfect, and my hair felt fresh. Thanks!

I feel so rude because I did not catch my stylists name, (she had yellow hair from ft worth) but she was simple amazing! She did my hair in the style of “old fashion” and I felt beautiful and classy. I loved everything about the experience and will be back!

We went for a Christmas blowout for my daughter.  She was looking forward to it. We come every year for Christmas it is a gift she asks for.  Her hair looked fuzzy when we left and they just put hairspray on it.  About 30 minutes later her hair looked like she put her finger in a light socket.  I called to see if they could do something and was basically told too bad.  So I get to go home after spending over $100 and wash and redo her hair.  She is bummed that her Christmas gift was a waste and now wishes she had asked for something else because she looks terrible. Lesson learned.

She went under my sister's reservation at 11.

Audie took my phonecall to book my appointment . Alana greeted me at the door with a smile & Monica was my hairstylist who gave me exacted what I wanted. All amazing! I have been to other locations prior and this will be my blowout salon going forward. Best customer service. I love their products

Drybar - Sugar Land

I got my hair done at this location of dry bar for a work Christmas party and was very unhappy with the results. I ended up having to re curl my whole head once home which is exactly what I was trying to avoid by making an appointment here.  I have been to the dry bar at least a dozen times (other locations) over the past few years and never left unhappy. I even used them for my wedding events and my hair looked great! But the service I got this time was bad. I left with my hair feeling crunchy and not at all what I wanted it to. The curls were tight and the stylist didn’t seem able to get my front pieces to curl (a problem I’ve never had). My stylist assured me that once I brushed out my hair with a comb it would fall perfect (it ended up just falling flat, even though I have never once had problems with my hair holding a curl in my whole life but especially not when done at dry bar). And on top of that it took 45 minutes longer than it has any other time I had gone. I love dry bar and will probably go again but I can’t see myself going to this particular location again.

Do not recommend!

We booked a group of 5 of us to get blow outs done for an event. For most of us the styles didn’t last more than an hour. Hair fell completely flat well before our event . My daughter’s hair is naturally wavy and I asked for curls and her hair was completely straight after an hour.

I asked if a couple of us could come back to get it fixed and was told they would not be able to accommodate us. We were not offered to come back to get it fixed!

We have had our hair professionally blown out before elsewhere and have not had this happen so the hair itself can’t be blamed either.

When you have your hair professionally done, it should definitely last more than an hour. They charge you before the service and don’t offer any compensation for this. They don’t guarantee any satisfaction.

I just got my service done today and after I left they secretly charged my card without my consent. They also added extra charges aka tip for themselves. The service was horrible to begin with because my hair didn’t feel professionally worked on. My 18 year old sister does her blow outs at home and hers looks more professional. The lady who worked on my hair didn’t put in an effort or seemed experienced. It seems like they’re just hiring to get business not for quality.

I take my great aunt here every week to get her hair done. They always do such an amazing job. Thank you to Ariel, and all the girls there for always making her feel so special.

Wish I could put no stars!!!!! I usually like to post good reviews but today I was beyond annoyed! I scheduled my appointment 3 days in advance. This is approximately my 3rd appointment so I’m not new!! The 1st time I went I asked the stylist what all services was offered. She simply stated that they only wash, blowout, and basic styles. I inquired about hair color, she stated that they don’t color but I can color my hair at home and they will wash it out which was something new but I said ok because she did a really good job with my hair. My next appointment I dyed my hair and she washed my hair with no problem. I have absolutely no reason to lie or stretch the truth!!!  I went for my scheduled appointment today and was greeted with someone who claims she’s the regional manager. I’m to furious to remember her name! She told me I can’t come with chemicals in my hair and have to leave.  Confused because it’s their employee who suggested that I can wash my hair there, she told me they can’t take me today but I can reschedule for tomorrow which the reason for me doing my hair and scheduling my appointment 3 days in advance was because I 2 events to attend. After I asked her what the reason was she said there’s a note under my name about dye this is after I told her it’s not my first time doing it.. The multiple sad excuses I was given made me furious. I asked her to show me or read what it said in the notes that was under my name she couldn’t. Then she said the plumber stated the dye clogs their drain! What are you serious?? So dye clogs the drain faster than loose hair? After she realized that wasn’t making sense she said it’s on the website. I questioned her where on the website states I couldn’t come with dye, being the REGIONAL MANAGER I told her to show me where it states that,  again she couldn’t. Now I’m there with dye in my hair with no hair appointment and have 2 events to go the next day. Obviously after this post there will mysteriously be notes under my name. Unfortunately none of the wonderful ladies who worked there before are no longer there. Because how can the person who suggested me to come with dye and the same person who did my hair twice before very genuinely nice have notes under my name that I can’t come with dye. I now I have to spend $150 to another salon because it’s a last minute booking!! She could’ve given me a warning because who would waste their time if I was supposedly warned prior. Why would I put myself through that embarrassment?? I really enjoyed that salon but as I noticed none of the stylists that were there when I was last there works there anymore, so they obviously are having issues. Make it make sense Very Very UNPROFESSIONAL and Extremely disappointed!!

I made an appointment late ion Sunday, for Monday at 12:45pm. I got there 20 minutes early and Nicki was able to start on me right away. She asked plenty of questions about how I liked my hair and how I wanted to look when I left. The head massage was very relaxing and my hair was exactly like I wanted. Highly recommend.

I went to to this place because I wanted a nice hairstyle for my engagement photos. When I first book this app I told them I wanted the Hollywood waves hairstyle I told them it was for a photo shoot I was going to have outdoors, I expressed how my hair it’s frizzy, they assured me that they have really good products that they can use to make sure the hair holds even if it’s outside I payed $99 for a custom hair look. I sent them photos of how I wanted my hair. The stylist Darian said she had experience doing this hair style however this look did not last me not even an hour. By the time I went home and changed, my waves had fallen my pictures looked like I have undone hair !! I called the salon explain to them what happened I waited to speak to the Manager , the manager stated that she cannot refund she can only offer a free deep condition which is insulting to me because i payed $99 for this “custom look” which did not even last for pictures. I don’t need a deep conditioning I need my money back. I have to have my photos retaken and pay my photographer extra, because I don’t want to stare at my fallen curls for the rest of my life. This was unacceptable for them to not return my money when I clearly showed them photos of how my hair looked. It is very unprofessional to say that you are able to do a service on someone and not refund for the bad job your stylist did. Please don’t come to this location if you are looking for a professional hairstyle for special events!! They are not worth your time and money!!

Wonderful experience! Very relaxing atmosphere, stylists are talented, professional, and extremely friendly. Jojo is human sunshine. Excellent service, highly recommended!

Jojo does an amazing job with my hair. She is very fun to be with and is such a caring soul. Love her! Love this place. I've used several other stylists and they are all very good. There is always such a positive vibe and good energy at the Sugar Land location....💕💕💕

Nikki is awesome, she gave a fantastic blow out for my hair, just the way I want, big curls. I feel very satisfied the way my hair looks like.  I will surely come back so Nikki can do the treatment for my colored hair. She deserved a good tip.❤️

The Parlor House

The best place in town to get your beauty back on. Absolutely every single lady is super nice, very helpful, always a pleasure to go. It feels like home with class. Jodi is fantastic whereever she is I am too. This place has class, a lot of "Europe", love the decor. Glass of coffee ☕ or wine 🍷 is always a great add on. Love the atmosphere, love the modern style and how they stay on the top of the trend. Color station/bar allows you to stay connected and never run out of juice if you must stay working. Coffee bar will keep your energy up. And the ladies will get your hair to its best.

Morgan ALWAYS does the best job on my hair!!!  Glad I found her after I moved to Lake Charles!!

Made an appointment for 11:45 for my toddler, showed up at 11:55 and waited for the lady before us at the desk before we checked in. By the time she was done it was 12:00 and the manager at the desk said because it was 12:00 we would have to reschedule. I asked what their late policy was, it’s 15 minutes, I said we got here before 12:00. Long story made a bit shorter, the 15 minute late policy is for adult cuts, not kids. Does it make sense? Not really. Were they apologetic? Definitely not:)
2 years cutting my hair here, super disappointed in the attitude and definitely not coming back, no matter how great Sam is.

Going to the parlor is like traveling first class. From the time you walk in until the time you leave you’re treated like royalty. All over phenomenal experience. Highly recommend

It was my first time going to the Parlor House and it was amazing! Samantha cut and styled my hair and I love the way it turned out! She did a great job and was really sweet and easy to talk to. Will definitely be coming back.

Cherry Blow Dry Bar Missouri City, TX

I have been in Houston for six years and today was the first time I found a home for my hair. The owner, Vanessa is very nice and personable. My stylist, Latifa exceeded my expectations so much that  I purchased a membership. The prices are reasonable too.

I had a balayage done by Yadira, and she did an exceptional job. Her attention to detail was remarkable as she not only asked exactly what I wanted but also offered valuable recommendations that complemented my face shape flawlessly. I'm extremely pleased with the outcome!

This was my first visit and I was very pleased.  The stylist was ready to start on me at my appointment time.  I loved not having to wait.  She washed, blow dried, “flat ironed” & styled my hair seamlessly and in record time.  I’ve never walked out of a salon within 37 minutes of my appointment! I was very pleased with my hairstyle as well.  I plan to return!

I called Cherry Blow Dry Bar last minute for a blowout for a Christmas party.  They were able to fit me in the schedule quickly.  This is how a blow dry bar should work.  When I got there I was greeted by a friendly associate.  The experience was great at the salon.  It was raining and I was escorted by umbrella to the car.  What more can you ask for?  I will be going back.

I tried this place for the first time. I honestly did not know blow dry bars could cater to African American natural curly hair. I made an appointment over the phone with the receptionist and she was so polite. When I arrived she greeted me and told me who would be doing my blow out. The place is beautiful. Very neat and clean. I waited no longer than 10 minutes to be taken back. The beautician washed my hair, gave me the heat resistant treatment, and then blow dried my hair and straightened it.

The only reason this place gets a 4 stars is because ANY add-on is extra. My ends needed to be clipped and she said it was extra. I wanted slight wave curls and she said it was extra.

I feel that it shouldn’t be extra to clip ends. I didn’t want a full cut... just clipped ends. I ended up putting curls in my own hair when I got home.
