Want a Perfect Hair Day?

Try Blush Dry Bar Salon

Let’s face it, not all of us wake up with flowing voluminous locks that fall with effortless bounce and shine. Still, have you ever dreamed of how to achieve the perfect hair day? Or have you ever had a special event that called for an elegant updo or effortlessly tousled curls, but you’re running short on time with no idea where to start?

Well, Colorado Springs, those days of stressing over tresses are over because I’m about to let you in on a local secret.

But first, a little backstory.

Brandi Martinez always knew she wanted to be a part of making people look and feel beautiful. With visions of glowing highlights and chic cuts, she resolutely pursued a career in the salon industry. After becoming severely allergic to the chemicals in salon products, that dream was slightly diverted, but certainly not dashed.

With a mission in mind, Brandi pinned up her curls and got creative. After traveling to Los Angeles to study airbrush makeup, and falling in love with yet another beautifying trade, Brandi made her way back to her hometown of Colorado Springs and in 2018 opened a business where her passion for hair and beauty would shine.

Now about that little secret?

Colorado Springs, may I introduce to you Blush Dry Bar Salon. Where gold bar chairs line the sparkling bar top that acts as the centerpiece to a room with accent walls covered in bright pops of color and geometric patterns. A row of buttery white chairs lines a mirrored wall where a talented team of glamour girls offer an array of themed blowouts for every hair type. Although Blush Dry Bar specializes in blowouts and professional makeup, they also offer lash extensions and waxing, making it a one-stop glam shop.

And just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, Blush also offers a full wine bar, stocked with wines inspired by Brandi’s L1 sommelier certification. So you can enjoy a glass of top-notch bubbly during your service.

What makes Blush stand above the rest?

It offers a full menu of bridal services, boasting a highly talented team of beauty professionals who will make you a stunning bride, taking care of wedding hair and makeup not only for you, but for your whole bridal crew. They even have their own bridal coordinator to ensure that getting ready for your big day is a smooth, relaxing and enjoyable experience.

“Our main goal is not only to create an experience, but to really make people feel special. Our focus is always on our guests and making them feel happy and confident,” Brandi explains.

One step into Blush and you’ll know exactly what she means. From her stellar team of talented professionals, the stunning décor at the salon, all the way down to her carefully and thoughtfully curated wine list, every little detail adds to the charm. So, the next time you need a glow-up for a special event or even just a feel-good boost, be sure to treat yourself to one of the best blowouts in town at Blush Dry Bar.
