The FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Blowdry!
▶ What is a blowout?
At Blowdry! we shampoo your hair (amazing head and shoulder massage included), then blow it dry with round brushes into a gorgeous style that will likely last for several days. Our techniques with hair dryers, brushes, irons, and products seal the hair cuticle, leaving hair shiny, bouncy, swingy, and simply gorgeous until you wash your hair again. Perfect for a special event, a big date (or after a bad date), an afternoon out with girlfriends, or as a confidence boost in preparation for a big week at work. The blowout makes your hair look and feel terrific, which makes you feel pretty terrific too.
▶ No haircuts? Seriously?
No, darling. We don't cut or color hair at Blowdry! It's true. You can keep your favorite stylist or colorist and come to Blowdry strictly for a fabulous blowout. Many of our blowdry artists are stylist and colorists in other salons, so if you fall in love with your blowdry artist, we encourage you to inquire about a cut or color in their other salon.
▶ Can I pick a specific stylist?
▶ How long can I expect my blowout to last?
Your blowout will likely last you several days before you need to wash your hair or come back for another blowout at Blowdry. Some tips to prolong your blowout are to keep your hair dry and out of the rain, sleep with a satin pillow case to minimize morning bed-head, wear a shower cap in the shower, and go easy on the sweating. You can freshen your blowout by blasting your roots with a hair dryer (even though your hair is not wet) to minimize any buildup of oil on your scalp. Dry shampoo is a perfect solution to extending your blowout too. Sprinkle or spray some on your scalp to absorb oils, and then brush it out. The length of time between shampoos also depends on your hair type. Blowouts for coarse, thick, or curly hair tend to last longer than for very fine or oily hair.
▶ Can I book a large group?
Blowdry! is the perfect place for a group of women to have fun and look fabulous… together. To get you all in at the same time, call ahead and make a block of appointments. Bachelorette parties, bridal parties, or simply a girls' night out are all part of the fun at Blowdry!
▶ Does it cost more if my hair is longer, thicker, or curlier?
▶ Does it cost more if you use curling irons or flat irons?
No, darling. It's $35. Sometimes we might achieve your look with just a blowdryer and a team of brushes, and sometimes we may enroll the help of rollers, curling irons, or flat irons. Regardless, it's $35.
▶ How do you use Lulu Organics Hair Powder?
According to the pros at Lulu Organics you should sprinkle a dime to quarter size amount of powder into the palm of your hand. Then, rub your two hands together so a thin layer of powder is covering both palms. You then work your hands through the root of your hair. If you need more, repeat. Some like to apply the powder with a blush brush or powder brush directly to the root. Dip the brush in the powder then shake before applying. Brush your hair after the application. If you see ANY trace of powder it will subside with the absorption of oil. DO NOT apply the powder directly to your roots! This is a common mistake and a b-line to a George Washington powdered wig look.
