Drybar Plano

I’ve been here twice now and I love it. I had my doubts about going to a place that didn’t cater specifically to AA hair types, but was pleasantly surprised with my results here. And I have natural, THICK and fairly coarse hair. The products they use make your hair feel like silk, and smell amazing. I think my stylist on my second appointment showed a little more experience with AA hair because she pressed my edges – something I forgot to ask for on my first appointment. The difference was night and day and my edges still look good a week out. I also recommend asking for extra oil (especially since it’s winter) if you have coarse hair. I am very excited to try their hair mask on my next appointment!
I was also extremely impressed with the receptionist. My friend and I made one appointment for the two of us, and my friend had to wait about 15 – 20 minutes for her stylist after mine had already started. I would not expect most salons to address this at all. But when I went to the register she informed me she had noticed how long my friend had to wait and comp’d the appointment. It completely removed the only sour note of our appointment – as we enjoyed everything else and had great stylists. While of course it was nice to spend less than I expected, what I really appreciated was their obvious attention to how their clients are served, and showing that they value their patronage.
It has been 1 week and 2 days and I have used ZERO heat on my hair since getting it blown out and it still looks good. As I am trying to grow out my hair, being able to go a full week or more without needing to apply heat is a huge plus for me. I would much rather pay $ 40 + TIP here to get my hair washed and blown out than spend 3+ hours at home doing not as good a job myself.

It was my first time going to a blow dry bar, my hair is very curly. I was a bit nervous, but Sara did a fantastic job on my hair. When I left my hair was light, bouncy, and straight.

Definitely will be returning to this Drybar location!
It was my first time using Drybar and I made the appointment literally the night before. I was running a few minutes late but it was no issue as it was somewhat empty that early on a Sunday morning. I was immediately offered a drink (a mimosa, too– loved that!) and shown to the shampoo bowl. Being that I have natural/​curly 3b hair I’m always skeptical of the products salons use because curls can be broken so easily. She used MoroccanOil products which I love and they smell great. I knew she had a great idea of what she was doing when she rinsed my hair with lukewarm/​cold water!
My blowout came out exactly how I asked in such a short amount of time. She was hesitant to get too close with the flat iron at first but once I gave her the okay, my troublesome roots were dead straight as well.
I wish I could remember her name because she was so awesome! I’ve since purchased a monthly membership (I travel a lot) and will return to the Plano location as often as possible. Thanks for the great service ladies!

Love dry bar! The staff is friendly & space is beautiful. I left relaxed and loving my Mai tai hair style.

If you are a natural with coarse coily hair, I recommend that you do your research and pick up the phone to request a specific stylist rather than setting up an appointment online. They do have an option to add notes to your online appointment if you want to request a stylist but I personally find it much better to talk with the staff to see for sure which stylists are available on the day of your visit.
Luckily I received two recommendations before going to this location, unfortunately one of the stylists (Eddie) has relocated and the other stylist (Che) was not on the schedule that day. So I decided to call and set up an appointment. The receptionist on the phone recommended two other stylists who supposedly had extensive experience with natural hair. This could not be further from the truth.
The stylist I was scheduled to see seemed a little uneasy while shampooing my hair and hesitated when I asked her if she had experience with 4c textured hair. I reassured her that it was okay to be honest and get help from another stylist. Finally she agreed and asked Sarah to help her out.
Sarah seemed much more confident and knowledgable about what she was doing and in the end my hair turned out nicely. However for low porosity coarse natural hair, detangling and moisturizing is necessary before drying and applying oils help to seal the moisture once styled. From the techniques she used it seemed that she may have had experience with naturals who have a looser curl pattern. In fact, she talked a lot about natural hair which I enjoyed but it was clear 4c hair was not her expertise. I did however tip her for giving it her best shot and offering such good customer service despite the length of time it took her to detangle and style my hair. A blowout by my previous stylist would have taken 45 min and that’s to achieve bone straight hair. I was at the DryBar for two hours (see photos for results).
Also if you decide to pay Drybar a visit, be sure to clean and deep condition your hair beforehand or you have the option of bringing your own staple products if you prefer.
Despite a less than satisfying experience, I do plan to go back. Next time I will schedule to visit the master stylist at this location which I hope to be a more promising positive experience.

Yesterday was my first time at dry bar, front desk very helpful and hairstylist very nice but I ask for high volume and curly ends, 2 hours later my hair was almost flat. I couldve done it at home myself instead of paying $ 40 to have flat hair at the weeding.

This isn’t my first time at drybar but it was my first visit at this location. When I walked in the receptionist greeted me and asked me to have a seat. She didn’t ask what my name was or if I had an appt. I told her I had an appt and she said «yes Min right?» How did she know? The receptionist asked if I wanted anything to drink and politely told me that the stylist is cleaning her brushes. The stylist came up to me and said «Min?» I answered and went to her station. Told her what I wanted and went to get my hair washed. During the time my hair was being washed, water was constantly running over my ears. Annoyed and trying my best to feel relaxed. Here comes the shampoo/​conditioner and again it runs over my ears. Annoyed again but didn’t say a word since she was too busy talking to other clients next to me. Yes that’s right she was joining in on others’ conversation and not even asked me if the water temperature was alright. At this point I’m not happy but I didn’t say anything because what can they do? Walked to my seat but the stylist came a little later. I looked at others and they had a towel around their shoulder. I unfortunately didn’t. The stylist asked me what type of products do I not want. I just told her what I didn’t like which was only two. She was blow drying one part of my hair for quiet a long time. The hair of course got tangled on the round brush. But she keep pulling on the brush eventually pulling my hair tight. The pain lasted about a good ten minutes after my hair was done. Someone tell me how you can’t tell that the hair is tangled on the brush? Let me be frank here, I honestly felt a little bit of discrimination because when I saw the other clients they got a totally different treatment. When I went to the other location at North Park it was a whole lot better! The stylist was so nice and treated me well. She even explained what products she used for my hair not like the stylist here. I asked not to use two products but the stylist didn’t put anything to hold the curls. This time I said something and requested for something to hold the curls. At the end I left a pretty low tip for the awful service.
On the bright side my curls are still holding in. (been a few hours)

Love this place! I’ve gone twice and completes enjoyed it.
My stylist was very funny but kind of rough with my hair.
I am tender headed so when she was leaving the dryer on my head to long or teasing it would start to hurt.
I love how all the products smell.
And your hair stays Fabulous for
A few days.

My friend and I went by this evening to get our hair done for her birthday outing and we had an amazing experience. Sheila gave me the greatest head massage and was super engaging. She listened to exactly what I wanted and took her time to make my curls perfect. My friend worked with Brooklyn, and walked out just as happy as I did. We had great customer service experience. I would recommend both Sheila and Brooklyn if you want beautiful big southern curls. We will definitely be back. :)

I’m thrilled with this location.
Finally joined the Drybar membership. LOVE it!
My blow outs are always phenomenal and last 7 – 10 days depending on the style. No complaints. Easy access to the location as well!

So this is the best place ever! It’s a flat rate for however much hair and what kind of hair you have and they pretty much do anything you want. They shampoo it really well dried out really well and stylet really well as well. I’ve had them do straight and curly and wavy and it all comes out perfect by anyone who works there. I have really long thick brown hair and it would usually take me about an hour or two to get it done at home and it still wouldn’t look as good. They take about 30 to 45 minutes including shampooing it. That’s very impressive! They also have an app where you can schedule cancel and do pretty much anything you need as far as an appointment on your phone. This is super convenient!!! Of course I do wish it was a little less expensive especially if I have to go about two or three times a month but it’s okay it’s definitely worth the money

The customer service at Drybar is phenomenal, and so are the products (especially at the Shops at Legacy location).
But, every time I go is hit or miss.
The idea of Drybar is adorable – I love scheduling, and going, and getting my hair done. But all-​in-​all, it never seems worth $ 50. I will probably return for extremely special occasions, but gone are the days when I go to Drybar on a whim.

Went for my first time on Saturday. Definitely loved my Cosmo-​tai. I’ll definitely be visiting again. I went in with no appointment and they were able to sit me within 5 minutes. Paid $ 40 plus $ 10 tip. I gave my hair a little touch up but its day 3.

Im just now warching the Meredith Show on tv and loved her Mom to Millions story. I just so happened tobe in Plano TX working and was walking down a shopping center and noticed this place… Well i know more now about this great company… Keep up the good work and the women happy…

Will not be going back. Stylist wasn’t friendly and despite telling her once she used extremely hot burning water to wash my hair. Was pulling and tugging on my hair during blow dry. Aside from that, she didn’t even ask me how I was, no chit chat. She seemed like she hated being there. I wasn’t even offered anything, but everyone else was drinking water and mimosas.
Now on to the hair… I asked for large curls with lots of volume… I didn’t get that. Instead she gave me small, medium curls with NO volume, that fell flat within an hour of leaving. She did not give me what I asked for.
There’s a technique to blowouts. Any experiences stylist knows to blow dry in the opposite directions to give hair more volume. She barely used any product in my hair. I had to ask for more hairspray and even then my hair was flat by the time I reached home. The blow out definitely wasn’t worth the $ 40. I wasted my money. I wish I could get it back.
They need better, experienced stylists.

I will not be returning to this specific location again.
I’ve been to many Drybar locations, and have always had an amaaaazing experience but this was the first time I was at the Plano location, and I will not be returning.
I was there today, for my birthday, which was known. I told my stylist, and I made a mention of that on my appointment.
First off, I walked in, and the receptionist up front was to busy on her cell chatting with another employee that after I told her my name she said absolutely nothing in response so I just kind of stood there wondering if she needed anything further, or wondering what the deal was, I was not offered anything to drink, which when you come here, that is definitely a nice perk, a mimosa, or a glass of champagne. For a second I just assumed they didn’t have anything, but later in the appointment I saw other people get their drinks.
The stylist was nice, but did not give me the look I wanted at first, she went more with the Cosmo, and I wanted the Cosmo Tai look, which is my go to look when I go to Drybar. The chair was all the way in the corner, and I couldn’t see the mirror, so I was kind of blind to how my hair looked until it was finished.
I was not asked if I wanted any volume (which I did) so I had to ask for it when she finished and i noticed that she used only 2 products in my hair, usually I see a lot more being used, one of them wasn’t even a dry bar product. (It was one of Moroccan Oil’s leave in crème, which was odd).
My appointment was at 4pm, and it is 8pm now and my curls didn’t hold (which is a first everrrr), and I did tell her to use product so clearly she wasn’t focused on me at all. (There was a lot of chatter near the front about getting to eat food that was delivered during my appointment.)
Happy birthday to me, $ 50.00 bucks later. –_​_​–

My daughters go here for special events and love it! We have always been pleased. I like that they offer you a drink while you are a customer or there with someone waiting.
I think it speaks volumes that I see the owner commenting on reviews.
The establishment is always clean and the décor is amazing. I like that they were playing Breakfast at Tiffany’s on the TV.
The products smell terrific and seem to work well.
I have never gotten a name from a stylist because they all seem to do a great job.

I have been here twice. once when they initially opened and had specials for the first time, and secondly thru a gilt voucher. Both times I had a great time and a perfect end result.
You get a choice of 4 styles you can do and all the names are alcoholic beverage related. So it’s a super cute theme. The only sucky part of this location is the parking. Of course you are trying to go to these salons mainly on a weekend for a special event I would think, and there is not parking here on the side ever. I came once with my Indian outfit on all dolled up but just needing my hair completed. I had to walk from the parking garage to the salon, not good.
The service has always been nice, the hairstylist are very chatty and they have movies playing as well on a big screen so you can be entertained by that. I just love this concept because at times I just don’t feel like washing my hair for an event and rather have someone else do it for me. So you pay $ 35 to come here, have your hair washed and blow dried, then they can curl it and style it the way you like.
My hair is very straight and I can’t do much with it, but they always seem to make it look awesome like I spent $$$ on it! Great concept!

My first time visiting drybar was amazing! I visited the Northpark location first, made an appointment of course, walked in and I was taken care of right away. Complimentary cookies and muffins at the front as well as flavored water or any beverage you requested pretty much.
I’ve been to three stylists at the Northpark location and I visited the Plano location today and I’m treated great at both of them. What I love is that they shampoo your hair at LEAST three times and they take their time with each wash, it feels SO GOOD!
Every visit, I’m out in two hours or less, which is miraculous when dealing with my thick, natural, long hair. The price for all blowouts, no matter the style, is $ 40… GREATNESS! The thing you have to remember is they do NO cuts and NO color. Strictly blowouts. I HIGHLY recommend drybar. They specialize in all types and textures of hair and make sure you’re in and out and looking fabulous!

Appointments start at 8AM. I was there right on time and so was my girl. She was very nice.
They offer you complimentary wine or water.
I sat down and had my hair washed and then blow dried. Then straightened. Pretty simple.
I was in and out quicker than I expected to be.
This is great for me, I have naturally curly hair and sometimes I do not want to stand at home for an hour getting ready. So to come here and pay someone just to do THAT alone is awesome.
I came in on a Gilt voucher that they honored with no problem. When I was done she asked if I wanted any changes which I did not. Tipped her $ 10 because it’s not suggested but what they should be tipped if you take care of those who take care of you.
I hope to go back soon or whenever I do not feel like doing this myself. :)
