Good blowouts require patience, the right tools and a level of coordination that most of us just don’t possess. I, myself, was not blessed with the patience nor skill to give myself the perfect salon blow-dry.  Instead of struggling with a round brush, countless hair products, a blowdryer and multiple mirrors, it’s sometimes easier to pop into a blow dry bar and save yourself the stress. With the popularity of these no cut, no color salons on the rise, they’ve been popping up all over the place and most of the time, offer reasonable pricing and a wide selection of options. I’ve narrowed down which boutique blow dry bars are the best in Los Angeles to make your life just a little bit easier and your hair a little (actually, a lot bit) better.

 Blo Beverly Hills

Blo’s cute concept, “fab-in-a-flash: no cuts, no color, just WASH-BLOW-GO” is exactly what I look for when choosing a blow dry bar. You can choose from a menu of seven pre-selected styles (even offering braids and buns), and can be in and out of other in 30 minutes or less for $40.

Brambila

A blowout by the beach. What more could you ask for? Situated in downtown Santa Monica on Ocean Avenue, Brambila Salon has the feeling of a quaint, unassuming neighborhood salon that just so happens to have an ocean view. This salon does it all, but offers clients blowouts for $35, which is a steal compared to other full service salons in the area.
