I was not offered anything. I also noticed the other two stylists working on girls ASKED them how they wanted their hair, with curled ends/blow out. My stylist just said "more volume?"

After she blow dryed my hair and said we were finished, I asked her if she could curl one side of my hair more as it did not look the same as the other side and she acted like I was asking her for a billion dollar I've been here once before for my makeup and the artist did a great job which is why I came back. But this experience has def left a bad taste in my mouth.

The shop is lively with girl talk and good old school r&b music playing in the back. It gives old school beauty shop vibes which I love. I came in on a Tuesday, which is a discounted silk press day. I added a trim also. Shay had my hair pressed in under an hour and a half. I love how my hair came out and the ladies were an excellent time to be around. They offer you a free drink of choice with your appointment and even gel eye bags when at the bowl. I had about two drinks before leaving and was feeling nice! The shop is decorated so cute with pink bubble chair, a lip shaped couch and overall girlie aesthetic. If you need a place to get a blow out or silk press on the fly choose here.

STOP SCROLLING -- BOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE FIRST…read more If you are a woman of color looking for a QUALITY blowout, save yourself the time, money, and frustration: Go to https://pressedroots.com Or try https://blomedry.com/blo-katy/ Both are worth EVERY dollar. Professional, efficient, and they actually understand our hair. Now let me tell you why I will NEVER return to Blo Blow Dry Bar. I booked here last-minute before flying out for a major golf event with LIV Golf. Normally, I go to Pressed Roots, but they were fully booked--and that's the ONLY reason I ended up here. Before arriving, I called ahead, clearly explained: * I'm a Black woman * My hair is curly and medium-thick * I needed a proper blowout/straight style * Timing matters I was reassured they could handle my hair and had experience with my texture. Red Flag #1: The salon was completely empty when I arrived. Red Flag #2: What they called a "deep conditioner" was a 5-minute mask with zero real treatment. Red Flag #3: I was upsold products that were either misrepresented or ineffective. The stylist rushed the entire process. It became obvious she was trying to finish quickly rather than do the job correctly. By the time she was done: * My roots were NOT straight * My hair was puffy and fluffy, not sleek * It looked worse than when I do it myself at home When I asked her to fix it, she told me: "You asked for a blowout, not a silk press." Let's be clear: A blowout should still result in smooth, properly straightened hair--especially at the roots. She then refused to correct it, saying she "ran out of time"... Even though I called ahead and was assured timing was fine. Now let's talk about the bill: * Advertised special: ~$50 * Charged: ~$150 * Added charges for: * A "mask" I didn't ask for * A fake "anti-humidity serum" * AND tipped herself $25 on my card without permission Yes--tipped herself. The next morning, I returned: * Another stylist AND a customer both agreed my hair was not professionally done * Manager was unavailable * I called repeatedly for TWO WEEKS... no response Final Verdict: If you are a woman of color--DO NOT GO HERE. This was: * Overpriced * Rushed * Misleading * Poor quality * Completely unprofessional What should've been a $50-$75 experience turned into a $150 disaster. Save yourself the stress: Go to Pressed Roots or a salon that actually specializes in textured hair.

My poor interaction at this location started this morning. The person from this location who called…read moreme to confirm the appointment had poor communication and only stated she was calling from this place after I asked for her name. She was trying to confirm my appointments but also stated I booked 2 separate services. My colleague and I are in town for work and booked separate appointments for blowout services for 4:45 PM. We arrived early today at around 4:32 PM to check in. Immediately the stylist who checked us in was rude. Her delivery on informing us we had to wait was less than ideal, she told us we have to "go get some coffee and walk around and wait for our appointment time". Several clients walked in after us and were greeted with warmer reception than we received. We waited until 5:02 until we decided that we no longer wanted the service, as we have a work function to attend this night. When the initial stylist saw we were about to leave she came up to me and told me to "go to the back we're ready for you" (not acknowledging my colleague at all). We proceeded to explain we do not want the service as we have been waiting for over 20 minutes at this point past our appointment time. The stylist then told us that there is a 20 minute grace period for the stylist because of hair length (past the shoulders), extensions, and a flood forcing them to clean the salon in the morning. The entire exchange was combative. The stylist argued that "we actually have been talking for 5 minutes so when you decided to cancel it was within the 20 minute grace period" and that "your grace period stared at the time of your appointment, not before". We never made a statement about when the grace period started, we were simply informing this location we no longer wanted the service. She then said they were very fast and didn't want to charge us $50 for a no-show fee. The stylist kept trying to extend the exchange, sharing that they and the other stylist are fast. This is contradicts what she was saying before, because I have hair past my shoulders (which I put in the comments at the time of booking) and my colleague had extensions (she booked the service with extensions). It was never communicated to us that they were running behind. When my colleague asked for the policy on grace periods, this stylist could not find it. The stylist then proceeded to touch my hair without my permission, trying to show that she could do the service fast. At this point I ended the interaction and informed her "respectfully, we are cancelling and leaving". This was such a poor experience. I'm also adding a screenshot of their cancellation and late policies (taken after we left). We showed up early, checked in on time, and waiting an ample amount of time for our appointment. If we are charged for any services we will be disputing them, as we never received the booked services.

My only criticism is that Rylee did not give me a scalp massage -- which is half of the reason for coming in for a cut for me! Konstantine's price went up from $80 (early 2023) to $105 (late 2023). The shampoo chairs and sink are the type where your head lies on the sink, so I find it so much more comfortable than regular shampoo sinks at other salons.
