Introducing Textstyle, Blowpro’s New Textstyle Dry Texture Spray

PausePlayPlayPrev|Next

When it comes to my hair, I must admit that I am not the most inventive with my everyday look. Aside from brushing it out of my face every morning, there is not much attention I give to my locks. So when I got the chance to have a styling session from blow, the new york blow dry bar using its newest product, I was more than a little excited about seeing what blow’s genius stylists would do with my thick head of hair.

The results, of course, did not disappoint; my stylist introduced me to Textstyle Dry Texture Spray, a from its newest line of texture series products. This powerful little spray is the perfect finishing touch to any dry style and helps to achieve the perfect texturized look, from soft waves to french ponytails or to refresh your already blown out look. The lightweight formula won’t leave behind any greasy residue or flakes and is long lasting so that your style can be recreated the very next day. It’s also Keratin compliant, sulfate free, paraben free and sodium-chloride free.

After my session was over, I left with a pinned braided “blowfish” style with soft to the touch hair, instead of the traditional “crunch” feel that I’ve experienced with other products. I walked away wishing I could start every morning with a styling session at blow, and now with my bottle of Textstyle Dry Texture Spray in tow, I feel like I quite possibly do have a stylist in a can!

Textstyle Dry Texture Spray is available at blowpro.com, Ulta, HSN, Nordstrom, Macy’s and fine salons around the world. A 5.6 oz bottle retails for $19.75 and a 2 oz bottle is $9.50.

Blow, the Ultimate Blow Dry Bar Experience (and More!)

Don’t you just love a good transformation? I certainly can appreciate one! I recently went to blow, the New York blow dry bar, to review for a complimentary blow out session, and I can relay that on all fronts, it certainly exceeded my expectations. Paired with the congenial and extremely talented Gregory Patterson, I found out that blow, although the purveyor of the blow dry bar, offers a full line of services from blow outs (prices range from $40-$60), styling, cutting, color, treatments, and is a celebrity favorite.

Gregory got right away a look in mind that would give me a boost, while still maintaining ‘me.’ End result? A much needed improvement — and trust me, I am picky about my hair alterations (I just took the scissors into my own hands and fixed a bang trim that was not up to par!).

The experience: my hair was first prepped via a thoroughly relaxing and ever-so-slightly aroma-ed wash, then back to the station for blow drying, some light curling, and a dash of products for body, texture, and hold. Blow also offers a full line of blow products, and naturally, the one that most caught my eye was the faux dry dry shampoo ($20), a finely milled concoction that you puff in spurts into your hair, completely free of the stickiness of sprays. Gregory used this on my coif, as it adds texture to even clean hair, as well as a touch of beach blow texturizing mist, blow up thickening mist, mane tame soft pomade, and blow out serious non-stick hair spray.

The wrap-up: thumbs up to Gregory for a magnificent job, bonus points for having the service last only an hour, and two blow Manhattan locations to best serve your hair needs is super convenient, with walk-ins welcome!
