I'd heard fantastic reviews about Blo Blow Dry Bar (25 Waterway Ave., Suite 150), so I had to try it for myself...well, for my girls, really. I called ahead and inquired about whether they can work with "kinky" hair. The lady who answered assured me that they absolutely can. I booked appointments for my 6- and 9-year-olds online (credit card required to reserve your spot; 24 hour cancellation).
We arrived 25 minutes earlier than our scheduled appointment time, and they were able to work us in almost immediately. The facility is bright, modern, and clean, and the staff is well-groomed and professional, as you might expect in most upscale salons. They were surprisingly very friendly and personable too (as you might not always expect). The waiting area is a bit smaller than I'd hope, but since I was the only one waiting, there were no issues with being there with my baby stroller.
The stylists really had their work cut out for them. After a summer of swimming in chlorinated pools, sun-bathing in Texas middays, and enduring skinny braids, my girls' heads were a force to reckon with.
Here's the BEFORE:
They were washed, carefully blow dried, flat ironed, and curled. We were all very pleased with the results. I personally thought the oldest girl's hair could have been gotten a bit straighter, but at a cost of $25 a head (for children 10 and under), I'm still very satisfied.
Here's the AFTER:
