The best blow-dry bars in Los Angeles

When it comes to blow-dry bars, Ali Webb, founder of Drybar, is beauty royalty. With 13 locations in Los Angeles alone, and 60 nationwide, Webb’s blowout empire has tamed countless tresses. While prices may have increased to $40 per blowout, it's still a steal of a deal for a quick (30min-1hour) and beautiful blowout. Can’t make it to one of their salons? No problem; let the experts come to you with the Dry-on-the-Fly service for $75 (tip included). Blow-dry addicts can get their fix with a monthly membership ($75), which includes two blowouts, a free birthday blowout and 10 percent off all products. The brand also boasts its own collection of hair styling products, including a Detox Dry Shampoo ($23) and The Sherriff Firm Hold Hairspray ($27). That’s what we call having a hold on the market.  

Look like a million bucks for just $35, thanks to My Blow LA’s hair-perfecting blowouts at their swanky Beverly Hills and Orange County locations. Choose from a simple menu of dynamic blowout ’dos, ranging from the major Big Head voluminous look, to the sleek Slick Lick straight-locks style. For a night out on the town, opt for a tumble of loose, romantic curls for an additional $10.

Blo Blow Dry Bar is your one stop shop for all your grooming and beauty needs. Rather than driving around the city from one salon to another, Blo brings every service to you under one roof. Leave your lovely locks in the hands of these experts and choose from seven of their signature "blo outs" for $40. They can also work their blowout magic on the trickiest of tresses, including hair with bonded extensions ($55). After taming your mane, indulge in their many beauty services including nails, makeup, and waxing. Locations throughout LA include Hollywood, Brentwood and Beverly Hills.

Studio K Hair Designory is located in Pasadena, but its menu of offerings draws style inspiration from cities around the country. In the mood for loose curls and mega volume? Spring for the Hamptons blowout. Feeling a little more beach chic? Opt for the Malibu beach waves look. All blowouts cost $40, updos $75, but the salon offers package and monthly deals for regulars. Studio K’s hair expertise doesn’t only encompass blowouts; here, the pros are also well-versed in haircuts (starting at $40 for men, $70 for women), color, extensions and treatments. And if that’s not enough to lure you in, don’t miss the delicious mimosas on offer, to make your pampering that much sweeter. 

Since 2012, Brasilian Blow Dry Bar has been turning up the hair volume on Sunset Blvd with its South American-inspired blowouts.
