“If mom is happy, then everyone is happy. ” One easy way to keep mom happy is by having good hair. As of 2012, no more daily ponytails for me. A little makeover for the new year is in order. I love getting m hair blown out. As I look back at my blog, I notice that this is becoming a trend of mine. It is a trend that I like and look forward to continuing. I even had my hair done a Momtrends event – those events are my favorite!
So, with my savvy ladies all taken care of, off I went to NY Blow Dry Bar located in the Meatpacking District in NYC.
I arrived at opening and almost instantaneously, the salon was filled with those waiting to experience the #1 blowout rated by Vogue, InStyle, Allure, and New York Magazine. While settling in, I took note of the black patterned tights being worn all. (Definitely something I need to purchase!) Jane’s addiction was playing in the background and one client was even in inline skates skating to her chair.
I made my appointment online and learned about all the blowout pricing options. Since I was a first timer, I indicated that by choosing “It’s My First Time” blow out on the service menu and I received a price consultation.
On the website, it states: Blow has three different price points for our signature blow out based on your hair’s length and texture. We like to call them a Blow Out 1, 2 and 3 (also known as BO1, BO2 and BO3)
During my shampoo, Naomi gave me two shampoos to make my hair extra clean. Good to know for wanting to keep my blowout as long as possible. I was offered water and a magazine while my stylist Paul was busy sectioning all of my hair. He used the heat is on™ protective styling mist.
It detangles and strengthens hair. The detangler is a must for my hair. It also “Insulates” hair from potential damage as it adds shine and eliminates breakage. This product also can be used to touch up the blowout throughout the week.
Paul sectioned my hair and used a large curling brush to blowout my hair. I have a lot of thick curly hair so this is an undertaking. As he dried my hair, I noticed the shine of the products immediately.
As he was close to finishing, he also used a fine comb for wispies. Although hot, it is worth the heat for those pesky “flyalways”. He finished off my hair with weather girl™ climate neutralizing complex. It Prevents frizz, split ends and “flyaways” in all weather conditions… even in the most humid conditions. Adds glossy shine without stickiness or residue. I loved the shine that it gave my hair. I also liked how it kept the flyaways in place.
The “blow dry care” product line is sold in other salons and stores like Ulta. It is never tested on animals. When I checked out, I was able to have my receipt emailed right to me. Good bye paper. Everyone I met was friendly and I had some great “me” time.
I enjoyed my day of pampering and I loved my blowout. At $50, I’m not sure if I could keep this as a weekly habit.

Thank you!
Your hair looks amazing (and of course you do too!) Wow! What a fantastic experience! Such a great way to start the new year!
You look great!!
I’d never even hear of a blow out or a blow dry bar. Do you just not wash your hair for about a week after you have it done?
I try my best to keep it as long as I can. I use dry shampoo. I wear a showercap to help and at night, I wear it up in a high ponytail or bun.
You look great! I hope they get a salon in Vegas!
You have naturally beautiful hair! I love it! But they really did a great job! At $50, that blowout can be a once-a-month splurge for yourself 😉 Hope to see u soon!
I love it, you lookgreat!!

Aw! I think you looked beautiful in the before pic too though. LOVE the hair! Gorgeous!!
You are too sweet! Thanks, Carol!
What a treat! Good style for you!
Your blown out hair looks fabulous!
Looks so great!!
you look fantastic, and i agree the before pic is great as well as the after!
Kerri you look fantastic, they did a beautiful job! Longer hair takes forever to blow out, while it’s a splurge, it’s a totally worthwhile one, it saves so much time when the pros do it!
