About

Blow Bar is built around blowouts, so a visit centers on washing, drying and styling hair rather than cutting or color. Each blowout includes a hair wash and a blow-dry with high-powered dryers, round brushes and other styling tools, and an optional scalp massage can be added. The salon describes its blowouts as runway-quality, saying they leave hair shiny and bouncy with a style that lasts for days.

The blowout process runs in steps: hair is washed and conditioned, heat protectant and smoothing products are applied, and hair is blow-dried and shaped with round brushes before being finished with curling wands or straighteners. A standard blowout is $45, a blowout for children seven and under is $30, and a blowout with DreamCoat is $60.

Beyond blowouts, dry styling for curls or straight looks is $35, with an extra charge if hair is wet. Braid bar styles start at $35, half up/half down is $55, and up-dos start at $75. Add-ons include a 10-minute scalp massage for $10, a scalp treatment or deep conditioning mask for $15 each, and extensions in any style for $20.

Makeup comes in eyes-only and full-face looks, with or without lashes: eyes only is $35, eyes with lashes is $40, full face is $65, and full face with lashes is $70. Keratin treatments are offered at the salon or on location, and the salon says they last around three to five months with proper care. Wedding hair and makeup can be done at the salon or on location for wedding parties. Bridal services are priced individually, so the salon asks clients to get in touch for details.

Specializes in blowouts and styling, and does not offer cutting or coloring.
