My Favorite Blowout on the Upper East Side

I’ve tried lots of blowouts on the Upper East Side and my favorite is no-frills and not-at-all fancy.

Getting a blowout is such a splurge and a treat. I’ve tried a lot of salons on the Upper East Side and my favorite of all is neither (too) expensive or fancy, but they do the absolute best blowout. The Keratinbar on 85th between 3rd and Lex is definitely no frills. They specialize in Keratin treatments, but I’ve been only for a blowout, which consists of a shampoo/condition and then a blow dry with only a round brush—no heat tools here. I tried this salon because I had some Classpass credits to burn and was so happy with the style that I came back again and again. If you’re into big, bouncy curls (as apposed to, say beach waves), this is a great option. I’ve also found that if you book online, you’ll often get 50% off. Tell me: Where’s your favorite place for a blowout on the Upper East Side?
