Blo Blow Dry Bar

Last Tuesday I went to a fun media event at Blo Blow Dry Bar in Beverly Hills. Blo USA is an international chain of blow dry bars, where you can get your hair washed & blown out in various styles.

After the stylist washed my hair, I consulted Blo’s hair menu book & picked out a style that had loose curls.

Here’s my before & after photo:

When I got home later that evening, my daughter was so fascinated by my curls! She’d never seen my hair like that because I’m pretty much a “throw it in a ponytail” kind of mom.

She begged & begged me to let her get her hair styled that way for the upcoming Father-Daughter Dance at her school. I’m pretty much all thumbs when it comes to styling my own hair, let alone my daughter’s, lol! Fortunately for us, there’s a Blo Blow Dry Bar in the Valley (Porter Ranch), conveniently located 10 minutes from our house.

I did have reservations about it at first, thinking hmmmm…is she too young for this sort of thing? I know some moms who would never let their elementary school aged daughters get a manicure at the local nail salon, let alone a professional blow out. Since this was a special occasion, I decided to splurge a little and let her get it done.

The big dance was last Friday & she was so excited to sit in the salon chair!

Here she is at the big dance! The happy smile on her face was well worth the $21 (not including tip) that I paid.

So what was that media event that I was covering? I was meeting the cast of the Private Lives of Nashville Wives!

Last night was the premiere of their show on TNT. Click on over to Surf and Sunshine to see my review!

Tell me: Have you ever gotten your hair blown out? What was the occasion?
