This Drybar in Reston is great, but Mae is the reason I keep coming back. I've tried other stylists, and while everyone is talented, Mae is the only one who really understands how I like my hair. With her, I always get the results I want -- and with others, I never quite did. Mae listens, she gets it, and she delivers every single time. I always end up going back to her because I know I'll leave happy and confident with my hair exactly the way I like it. Even after I moved, I still drive over an hour just for Mae to do my hair -- that's how good she is. When you find someone like that, you don't let them go. read more

Long story short, my hair turned out fine but I will never go back. Way back on April 16, I made an appointment for myself and my DIL to have blowouts for a wedding for my son's best friend. I made the appointment for 1:30pm on July 26, a Sunday afternoon. A friend made a separate appointment for her and her daughter-in-law at the same appointment time. On June 26 I received a text from the salon inquiring about our hair length and thickness to make sure we were booked for appropriate length of time. Great! Confidence inspired. The week of our appointments, on Tuesday and on Saturday, I received emailed appointment confirmation requests that required me to click on a link to confirm which I did each time. The emails also advised if we were late or cancelled we would be subject to a $25 fee. Totally fine because this is for a wedding and important--not cancelling and certainly not showing up late. At 11:50AM on the date of the appointment, I get a text asking if we can come in at 1:45pm instead of 1:30pm. I replied that no-we really can't. We have a wedding. Whoever it was texting replied--no problem--1:30pm is fine! We all four show up at 1:30pm which was apparently far from "fine". No one started on my hair until 2:05pm. The other 3 had theirs in progress at varying times later than 1:40pm. At no time did the receptionist come over to where I was sitting to offer any kind of explanation. She walked past me multiple times with no eye contact, no offer to refill water. I am starting to go in full panic mode as we were supposed to bring lunch and drinks to the groomsmen, I still need to walk back to the Hyatt, do makeup, get dressed, get the food and catch a shuttle to the wedding that is 15 minutes away. My stylist apologized when she finally started my appointment and said she had to "finish another girl up." They had to have either squeezed someone else in knowing that there was not adequate time (hence their text) or a person showed up late. Either way, 35 minutes late to start my appointment that they confirmed several times and then told me "1:30pm was fine" is absolutely unacceptable. When I went up to pay, there was no apology, no offer of a discount. I didn't blow my top because at that point, why? There's no way I'd entrust them again with keeping a schedule on an important day. I had to have someone else pick up the food. And mind you, this was a military wedding. Do you know how often I get to see my son and buy he and his friends lunch on an ordinary day, much less on an important day? Not very often. Rare in fact! I wish I would have done my own hair and saved myself the stress! Nothing like paying someone for panic. read more

Drybar Reston Town Center - Blow Dry/Out Services Near Me - Reston, Virginia

Dry Bar is a quick and convenient place to get your hair done for a nice night out. I feel it is reasonably priced for the services they provide. You can choose from a menu of hairstyles, but I was recently told that you can also bring your own inspo! I love that they always have a movie on and offer a drink (yay for champagne!). Dry Bar in RTC has always been clean, professional, and my stylists have always had a great sense of humor and seemed to like their job sincerely. I love Dry Bar products! It's fun to come with a friend and they accommodate you sitting next to each other. Pro-tip, make an appointment as soon as you can - Dry Bar fills up fast! The app is super easy and convenient to use, you can even book for a friend or group to come as well! read more

My first visit at DryBar Reston I was matched with stylist Caroline Lama & as always the universe looked out for me - she is wonderful , professional and a master at her craft. I had an UpTini done for a back tie event this past weekend and she blew me away with her talent. Because of her I bought the membership package read more

See all

This salon is truly best customer service and Ivonne does a killer blowout. She really listens and focuses on the kind of style you want. I wanted lots of volume and she delivered perfectly. If you need a blowout, this is your place!! read more

Been going to this Dry Bar for over a year. Today, they did not provide the normal level of service and AT THE END of my blowout, they tell me they are charging me double for my blowout. They say, "we have been tracking how long your blowouts take and we are charging you double." This is unethical. Shitty service and unethical business practices...would highly NOT RECOMMEND!! read more

This business has "stylists" who will sometimes provide a terrible blow dry (like I did today) and sometimes you may get a good blow dry. It is inconsistent and unpredictable. The managers are terrible at customer service, they just fight back with their customers. Today I had a blow dry and when I got home and saw the horrific job they did I called them and they refused to help me instead they they said I was wrong and refused a redo. Any business knows it is better to offer a correction than turn an unhappy customer away. Not this business! See their Google review -- only 4.1 -- that tells you what you need to know. Inconsistent service leads to these ratings! PS: Go to PR Partners and ask for "Nils" for a beautiful, professional blow dry! You're welcome read more

My sisters and I came to get blow outs for the first time. The chair I was sitting at smelled like BO which was so off putting the entire time. We all got started on time for our appointment, and the ladies in the front and helping customers are super friendly and polite, but personally my stylist could have done a little more for customer service like checking in to see how things were feeling for me. The entire time I was just in pain from her pulling my hair out when she was washing my hair, brushing it, drying it, and styling it. She asked me when she was washing my hair if my hair holds curl well and I said no. She mentioned she was going to try pinning the curls so it would last longer for me. She curled my hair with a flat iron and I could see in the mirror that every piece she went over was SO STEAMY. I couldn't stop thinking my hair is getting so damaged. When she was holding the strand to curl my head was getting yanked back. I asked her if there was any way she could pull not as hard, and she said "Um, I can try" my head and neck were getting pulled the entire time. My hair was so frizzy right after we left the salon. I would never get a blow out again. The style I requested was a Cosmo. This was not worth the cost at all. read more

I've had a few great experiences at this salon, however I wish they all knew how to do different textures of hair. It's really unpredictable. I called in this morning to confirm my appt and the receptionist was SO RUDE when I requested someone that knew how to do my type of hair. I definitely won't be returning to Drybar after that interaction. If you have long, thick curly hair 0/10 do not recommend. I'm also really big on customer service and this was not present in this phone call this morning. -In response to the owner- if a client expresses that the past visits the blow outs have not been up to standard and is requesting someone who knows how to do black hair that is absolutely not unreasonable. You should focus more on training staff to have the ability to do a DIVERSE range of hair types to the same ability instead of leaving these snotty responses and having passive aggressive phone calls. Wish you the best with your limited clientele and poor customer service. -picture of my hair having dinner immediately after a fresh blow-out. I left out my curly roots but use your imagination! read more

Front desk receptionist, manager and owner -- rude, nasty, not provide full services -- Beware! Read the other reviews before you sign up. You can find a new Drybar opening up soon in Ashburn!

I love drybar! I get both dry styles and full blowouts, whatever service I get is always amazing. Neece is THE BEST! She listens and does whatever I feel like doing to my hair that day and is always spot on. The atmosphere is also calm, relaxing, and friendly. 10/10 would recommend. read more

I was excited to try it here. The atmosphere was nice and the place was clean. They give you a book to choose the style you want. The stylist was not very personable. A child was in the styling area eating fast food that didn't seem to belong there. My hair was just kinda blah when they were done. The novelty was nice but I wouldn't go back. read more

I booked a last minute appointment to get my hair done for my birthday. I was nervous at first but asked for a stylist experienced with my hair type (3b). Callie was my stylist and she was absolutely Amazing! From the moment I was greeted I knew I would be well taken care of. My main thing was I wanted straight roots and she delivered just that! Honestly nothing but positivity to say about my experience with Callie! She has a returning client in me! read more

I booked a last minute appointment here the night before and was pleasantly surprised! I have 4b/4c super dense course hair so I was afraid to say the least. But from the moment I walked in the women at the front desk were helpful, reassuring and attentive! Ladies (& gents) they do all hair types here and the diversity within the stylist match that! I wish I remembered my stylist's name but she was gentle, took her time and did a fantastic job! My blow out lasted 2+ weeks. I also got the shine gloss add on and I recommend for thicker/course hair. read more

I LOVE this drybar location. Can't say enough about Gabby that does an incredible blowout on my super thick and curly hair. She has the best blowouts in town. My hair will last 7 plus days and still looks fresh. This place is owned by a woman, which is incredible. Brittany puts her whole heart and soul into this place and it really shows. The staff here is amazing! It's always clean and a treat to come in. They are always on time and do a great job with appointments! read more

I was really pleased with my blowout at this location! Victoria did a great job styling my hair how I wanted. The best part was she was super gentle too instead of ripping a comb through my hair. I have chemically straightened African American hair and it's important to be very gentle detangling it. I will be back! read more

For 60 bucks this was awful. I wish I would have just gone to a beauty salon. From the shampooing to the blowdry. Not worth it! Maybe 30 bucks but 60. Awful!!!! Never again read more

Loved this place and my stylist! She did such a great job took great care of my mixed hair. I only straighten my hair once a year and loved this experience. read more

Staff was very polite and place was clean- already an upgrade from Tyson's. However, I was called 5 min before my appt to say they were running 20 minutes late (hi, doesn't help when you've already arrived) and my stylist, while very kind, was obviously inexperienced- I left with hair that was still slightly damp, had a mild frizz (despite booking a liquid glass add in) and low volume despite booking the "southern comfort" volume style. Two days later, I'm washing again. I'd be back, but only for select stylists. Still an improvement over Tyson's, but a far cry from other locations. Drybar really needs to work on improving consistency- the blowout costs more than my haircut at a nice salon. read more

I can't emphasize enough how amazing Brittany and the entire DryBar team is at this Reston location. I planned a corporate event here, and Brittany went above and beyond to make sure there were drinks, finger foods, and even recommended a photographer and makeup artist. My sales team absolutely loved this event and their hair looked amazing! I can't wait to come back read more

This place is amazing. I got the best shampoo and blow dry. The staff are super nice and I got a glass wine too.

The owner is very nice. The experience of most of the people that work there needs to improve for the prices that are charged. My recommendation is to go somewhere else in the meantime. read more

My sister and I came in together. My head massage wasn't really anything and my sister's stylist didn't fully dry her hair. She didn't know until after we left because her hair is super thick, but it wasn't great. It also smells really bad. My hair looks great though. read more

Seriously the best! A 5-star experience. The owner is superbly nice, the blow outs are fantastic. Stylists Cousin and May have both done incredible blow outs for me that look outstanding both on Zoom calls and for in person meetings. Plus, I got a Mimosa while getting my hair done. Highly recommend Drybar Reston!! read more
