Drybar – Highland Park

Help! When Drybar on Oaklawn first opened, can someone tell me the brand name of the products used on the hair?

I love love love the Drybar. I’ve been to this location twice now. Have to say the first time I wasn’t impressed. I tend to blame myself because my hair is an animal that lives on my head that resembles a bird nest.
First time the young lady who blew out my hair used a boar bristle brush which tamed the hell out of my frizzy long hair. That said it worked so well that it removed my natural volume. I had no idea that was possible. I have big hair without any effort. My hair also holds curl well. With this blow out it did not happen. I left with shiny barely flipped hair.
Second time I got this new person named HT who did the best blow out by far. I left with big beautiful bouncy shiny texas sized hair with beautiful flips at the end. I would’ve taken a pic but was so enamored with my hair I couldn’t keep my fingers out of it. The hair looks like something out of a magazine.
I have been going to the Drybar in grapevine but might keep coming here and ask for HT.
It costs $ 40 to wash and dry. Tip what you like.
If u have thick unruly hair like I do its best to take a day off and let the professionals handle it. They are well worth it.
FYI normally at the salon it takes about 1 hr 15 mins to dry my hair. All the stylist dread my hair and they all know me as that person with the hair that will tire them out. The jokes they crack are in good nature but it is every single time i go so i started coming to drybar. No jokes about tiring muscles or skipping the gym at this place. Yes my hair is super thick, coarse and difficult to deal with. At drybar these people have managed to get my hair looking fabulous in under an hour which is amazing.
Try it! Lots of styles to chose from. they don’t cut or dye. They only blow out.

This was my first blowout at Drybar and I had a great experience! They offer you a drink as soon as you walk in, and I was promptly introduced to my stylist, Morie. She is AWESOME! I asked for a «Cosmo» and she did an amazing job. My hair exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Drybar, and if you go to the Highland Park location, book with Morie!

I was in the area and decided to get my hair done here. Booked via online app (love their app btw– so easy to use!) this shop is Much bigger than the shops of legacy location. The front desk girls weren’t as friendly as what I am typically used to… Maybe it’s a highland park thing lol or maybe I’m used to legacy location bc they know me since I am a regular. Either way I just didn’t feel the warm greeting feeling. Anyway my stylist was great, her name is Jessica. She was friendly, accommodating and did a wondering job on my hair! I will request her again when I come back to this location next time!

I consider it a special treat anytime I book an appoint at the Drybar. This is because I live two hours away. Drybar is a nice option when traveling and visiting the big city for an event. It takes the stress out of primping!
First off, I really enjoy the neighborhood setting of the Highland Park location. The salon is spotless, fresh, and bright. Chairs are comfy and endless chick flicks play on their flat screens. Top everything of with a scrumptious obligatory Mimosa! What’s not to love?
Unfortunately I cannot remember the stylists name that worked her magic. Her work granted me lots of compliments that evening. Here are a few tips I would like to pass along… That day I opted for the Blowout + Floater + Mudslide. The products are amazing and I would’ve like to known more! I’m not wanting a hardcore sales pitch but some hair education. This is why I left the salon empty handed.
Lastly, I feel like personalization was missing. There was minimal exchanges about why I was at the Drybar. I had to initiate most the conversations with my stylist. I feel if you all make the sessions more «personal» you will get a 5 star review next time! Thank You!

So I will just say I was pretty skeptical about coming to this place being that I am an African American woman and I wasn’t sure that they had someone who was familiar (and good) with my texture of hair. Bianca definitely surprised me and listened to exactly what I wanted during our consultation. She did a great job and I’m pretty picky about my hair! Thank you Drybar Highland Park!!!

I’ve always loved going to Dry Bar. And I usually go to the Plano location but since I recently moved to Dallas and live down the street from this Oaklawn location, I booked an appt. I was expecting the same treatment as the other location but was a little disappointed. I walked in and checked in. When my stylist called my name she didn’t even bother to say good morning or anything. I don’t even think she told me her name. She was an awkward girl and only thing she asked me the entire appt was if I was tender headed. My hair turned out just OK, it was a little frizzy on top and had to fix it when I got home. Likely there’s other salons that specialize in blowouts in the area. Most likely won’t return to this location.

Perfect for a girls night out. Excellent staff and service. I’m little disappointed because I got my hair done on Friday night and I was told the curls should stay for couple of days but when I woke up next morning there was no style left on my hair. Did not feel worth spending that much money for just one evening.

I love this place, Everyone was friendly and my service was prompt. I really need to use these ladies more often, I walked in like a dirty grungy hippy stoner, left with style and grace!
pics to prove these Stylist are Crushing it! I feel bad I forgot that gals name, full sleeve on her arm, beautiful gal I just can’t remember her name, She is amazing with braids! Seriously so many people gave me so many compliments!
BEST BLOWOUTS!

My first time at drybar and I was a little disappointed. I wanted the «mai tai» style and I got more curls than beachy waves. However, my stylist was super nice and did a great job being both gentle and efficient. We needed to be done in an hour or less for a wedding and they got us in and out quickly. Perks: catchy music, drinks served to you, movies to watch, and friendly front desk workers. I would come back and hope to get a more accurate blowout that matches the style I want.

I’m in Dallas often for business and have become a huge fan of Drybar services and products. I always schedule with Morie at the Oaklawn location (close to Uptown) because she ‘gets’ my hair (thick, curly). They are always completely accommodating when I have to move up or push back appointments last minute. I love the style option book, although I like to keep it simple with the ‘Straight up.’ (No flat iron)
I have weekly blowouts back home, but would happily be unfaithful to my salon if Drybar were to open up shop in South Florida!
I highly recommend Morie (pronounced ‘More-​A’ and this location for a great blow-​out!

This was my very 1^st time getting a Blowout and I enjoyed every minute of it. I’m from Florida and we do not have Drybars from where I live but being in Texas it was a must have thing to do!
The service was great, got to sip champagne and watch a movie as I got my hair done. We were in an out within 45 minutes.
Love the products and the whole experience. If you are in town visiting or in Texas and want to get a true blowout I highly recommend coming here!

Love Love Love this place! Rafael knocks it out the park EVERYTIME!!! I love my hair again!

This was my first blowout/​Dry bar experience, and I was underwhelmed. I drove in from Austin for an appointment at 1:30 since I had an important job interview in Dallas at 3:30. I was offered something to drink when I arrived, but never actually got it.
The woman that did my hair was very laconic and barely explained anything to me, even when I told her it was my first time getting this done. She didn’t ask me much at all about product, just pointed to one in the book and I said OK. Since this was my first time, I would have really preferred more of a consultation to discuss what each style could look like, product options, etc.
She used just the tiniest amount of product, and by late afternoon, it no longer even looked like my hair was done. When I left it looked fine, but not amazing, which was a disappointment.

I wasn’t satisfied with my style (Cosmo) and tried to have the stylist fix it because it looked rather flat. By the time I got to my car my hair was COMPLETELY flat! So disappointed! For $ 40 just to have my hair styled, I expect it to last at least a few hours NOT a few minutes.

Love love love DryBar! What an amazing relaxing experience!!! It was the absolute best! My hair looked amazing and I felt so very pampered! Def check it out! The whole concept is amazing!
Ps. Only one alcoholic drink while getting a service so that stinks but other then that! It’s awesome!

I made reservations for me and my sister in law months ago in preparation for our cousin’s wedding. Thank goodness I did. While Dallas does have a few locations, this spot close to downtown books up quick. Our other cousins tried to get a walk in appointment and there was nothing available all day.
I love the DryBar concept. And while it may be lost on much of our male family members, it makes getting ready for a special event so much easier. (Plus it’s a great way to have some papering girl time during a busy family weekend).
The staff at this location could not be friendlier and while the wedding was not until later at night and our appointment was in the afternoon, our hair stayed perfectly in place. Top that off with a great glass of champagne and a shampoo that put me in a meditative state, it’s an easy 5 star review for me.
Side note: parking in the actual parking lot is pretty tight, but I don’t know the area well enough to suggest other parking areas. It’s on a side street with sidewalks though, so if you do have to walk, you can get there safely.

Drybar is by far my favorite place to get pampered in town. They seem to always be right on time, offer you a drink of your choice and you always leave feeling fabulous!
I don’t have a particular stylist that I prefer to go to, as they all have been great in my experience.
Feeling like an extra treat? Add a floater to your blowout appointment for a 10 minute scalp massage!

Upscale yet reasonably priced. Solid quality but they get you in and out.
I wanted to get my hair blown out for a wedding this past weekend, but was unsure of a place to go relatively last minute (since my regular hair stylist primarily does extensions/​sew ins). Drybar was recommended to me, but I wasn’t sure if they did all types of hair. Mine is full and naturally super curly. Thankfully this place does all kinds of textures and styles. All of the stylists are good for the most part, but I have heard some are better than others. My advice? When booking your appointment, ask the booking specialist who she recommends based on your description of your hair.
Other pluses include the free champagne, coffee and/​or wine, the movies/​tvs in the mirrors while you sit and they blow dry, and the sheer elegant décor that really sets the perfect mood for a girls’ day out for a little r&r.
One last tip for first timers: get your hair trimmed beforehand! They don’t cut here and your hair will look so much better if they do it after a fresh cut/​trim! Good luck!

I enjoyed my first ever visit to a Drybar!
We arrived to a very busy atmosphere but were helped by a lovely front desk team. It took about 20 minutes to get called back, but we took the time to check out the makeup spot next door, and enjoyed mimosas! How fun!
Jeremy was my stylist and I enjoyed my time with him. He made sure that I was happy with my hair every step of the way. Even at the end when I wanted my bangs styled differently he happily obliged. I chose to use a lightweight hairspray and next time I will go with a stronger hold since my hair is really stubborn and doesn’t hold curls well. Not his fault, though.
So, I had to leave off the fifth star because it seems like service is inconsistent. I went with someone else whose stylist didn’t talk at all and didn’t get a special offer for a next visit like I did. I felt lucky to have Jeremy as my stylist.
