When you consider that some city salons will charge as much as $60 or $70 for the same thing and then sting a surcharge for long hair, this is a winner. All the great amenities of a good salon come with it: current issue fashion mags, coffee or tea offered and a head massage with your wash. Open before business hours so you can pop in at the start of your day or in your lunch hour. My blow dry was perfect - exactly what I asked for AND it lasted nearly a whole week which is unheard of with my hair. I'll be back.

Much more affordable than most salons, and the team here are great. I've been coming here for years and always had good experiences. I've recommended a few people too, and they're still coming here as well, which is always a good sign. This is a perfect venue for a hens party, or to start a girls night out.

I have only ever been to Blow Dry Bar in a rush. Which is why it's like a reliable friend, ready to swoop in a rescue you at the 11th hour when you realise you've left no time to get ready for that wedding/event/job interview/super hot date. Unfortunately my haphazard booking means I don't often see the same person twice and results have definitely varied. Service has been anything from 2 star to 5 star, but usually pretty happy with my hair. Blow Drys are their specialty, so they will accept pretty much any request. From big bouncy photo-worthy curls to "could you make it look like I just woke up looking this good?" - they have always nailed it. Yes, I have actually asked for that and yes they worked their magic to a subtle and lovely do. It might seem like a blow dry isn't that hard to stuff up for a hairdresser, but I've definitely made some bad choices in the past and left looking like an 80's glamour model and stung upwards of $60 for the privilege. BDB has never steered me wrong, which is why I go straight there without question when I'm in need of a confidence boosting look.

Based on Yelp reviews, I went to take a look at the salon. It was very busy on a Wed afternoon, which I took as a good sign and made an appointment for Friday. Atsuko did a fantastic job cutting and coloring my hair. Her attention to detail was impressive - she spotted mistakes in my previous haircut that even I hadn't noticed, and was very careful the the color didn't splatter or run onto my skin or clothing. I brought some photos of my ideal cut - she did a great job marrying the style to what my hair actually does. She even gave me some tips on how to blow dry it better when I am doing it myself. Plus, she managed to pull this all off in less than 2 hours! (And it didn't feel rushed). My hair looks amazing and I am so happy with it! And even though they seem to always be busy, they are somehow able to fit people in on short notice so don't be shy about calling them.

That's rare. I will never go anywhere else. This place is special, and the people here make it what it is. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for always making me feel seen, valued, and beautiful. I recommend this place with all my heart. Love you all!

I was offered an array of beverages and even cake! I met Jo who looked after my colour and Juliet who would be saving me from my previous hair cut disaster. Both listened to my probably misguided dreams for my hair and asked all the right questions giving feedback and guidance without being pushy or overwhelming. I couldn't be happier with the resulting cut and colour! And the shampoo/ head massage alone is worth making an appointment for!

I really feel like these guys can cover everyone from the 'normal' haircuts, to the insanely out-there styles. I've gotten some great tips out of them, and my hair loves me for it.
