Blown air improves the flight of kites, the meaning of kisses, and the infamy of dresses worn by famous Marilyns. Fortify the ferocity of your follicular look with today's deal: for $25, you get a blowout and Hair Shots Kerastase treatment at drybar, a friendly, scissor-free blow-dry bar in Studio City (a $55 total value).
For special-occasion operation and everyday wear, drybar's blowout artists specialize in sculpting a wide range of looks and gifting beauty beehives with a healthy glow. Their blowout menu runs the glamour gamut: Achieve the just-rolled-out-of-bed look that lasts all day with a messy, beachy, and playful Mai Tai, or harness the classic charm of voluminous curls by treating yourself to a Southern Comfort blowout. Or, for a modern East Coast look that doesn't require hailing a hovercab, strike a pose and smoothen out your strands with the Manhattan. No matter which look you elect to preside over your head, every blowout comes complete with a choice of quick but rejuvenating Hair Shots, five-minute Kerastase treatments that infuse your shampoo with desired attributes—the Alabama Slamma fortifies weakened threads, the Super Hue refreshes color-treated tresses, and the Sea Breeze nourishes dry locks.
Owned and operated by a lively crew of stylists and artists, drybar is committed to three things—blowouts, providing an elegant interior with a fashion-forward feel, and blowouts. Call for an appointment; open slots are easier to come by Mondays through Wednesdays.

Drybar
At Drybar, a pair of scissors or hair-coloring foil is nowhere to be found. That’s because the business’s founder, Alli Webb, opened the shop strictly for blowouts after her in-home business skyrocketed. Featured extensively in the media, each of the more than 40 white-hued, airy shops revolves around a center bar where customers sit for around 45 minutes as stylists blow-dry, straighten, and curl their hair. From a menu booklet, clients select a cocktail-themed hairstyle, such as The Mai Tai, which imparts beachy waves, and The Manhattan, which streamlines locks with a sleek finish that mimics the straight lines of downtown New York and can be outfitted with a tiny doorman who hails cabs for you. The staff at Drybar also crafts updos, travels on location for an additional fee, offers high-end products and tools available for purchase, and tallies bar tabs so that customers can pay for multiple blowouts at once.
