I was just complaining about the fact that we don’t have a blow-dry bar like this one in LA, when a note from Johnny Rodriguez Salon popped up in my mailbox. Now, LA’s “Drybar” is creatively a blow-dry-only joint. No cuts. No color. Thirty-five bucks a pop. Johnny Rodriguez is a full-service salon, but we love the idea of their version, “Blow-Dry Bar.” The menu boasts four styles: an up-do (go with the “‘messy’ less structured style”), a sleek, straight blow-out, the “Big and Beautiful” with lots of volume, and the curl job with big, bouncy waves. The prices, sadly, top that of the LA Drybar at $55 and up, $45 and up, $35 and up, and $55 and up, respectively. (I hate the term “and up.” I mean, why bothering listing the price if there’s an “and up,” right?) We do like that there’s a punch card for returning blow-dry-ees. Pay for five blowouts, get one free. Now that we can work with.
Thanks for putting this up. Good to know! Convenient location and parking too. Gotta like that.
Great news! Drybar is coming to Dallas/Highland Park area in January.
[...] Johnny Rodriguez Salon isn’t the only one boasting a blow dry bar nowadays. The new Lure Salon in West Village has one, too. For $35, you’ll get a signature ****tail and your choose of one of four blow-out options from the menu. (Options include everything from a basic, smooth look to “disheveled” beach waves.) If you’re in this for the long haul, grab a 4-pack for $125 or a monthly “tab” for $150, which gives you 4 blow-outs, two 15-minute head massages, and a discount on products. Call to book. $(document).ready(function() { $.getScript('http://directory.dmagazine.com/common/inthispost?urls=http://directory.dmagazine.com/beauty/Lure-Salon/48780,http://directory.dmagazine.com/beauty/Johnny-Rodriguez-The-Salon/22903&selector=%23in-this-post')}); tweetmeme_url = 'http://shoptalk.dmagazine.com/2011/01/05/lure-salon-launches-a-blow-dry-bar/'; tweetmeme_source = 'DShopTalk'; tweetmeme_style = 'compact'; tweetmeme_service = 'bit.ly'; tweetmeme_service_api = 'sedmondson:R_c2e04b607514bab1113e622356e8750c'; (function() { var s = document.createElement('SCRIPT'), s1 = document.getElementsByTagName('SCRIPT')[0]; s.type = 'text/javascript'; s.async = true; s.src = 'http://widgets.digg.com/buttons.js'; s1.parentNode.insertBefore(s, s1); })(); Leave a Reply [...]
