Miami's new drug: blo Brickell

Blo Brickell is finally open! 

I can't even begin to tell you how good it feels after this long journey, and we have only just begun!

Already we have been busy, eliminating bad hair days for the women of Miami. It's 7am and the first appointment is getting gorg before work. And I am smiling on my 4 hours of sleep because it feels good! 

Our Grand Opening weekend was a successful one, filled with news anchors, editors, bloggers, and the fabulous Miss Cuba (Kelly Saks). Channel 10's Johanna Gomez interviewed me & got a sexy Holly Would blo herself, and it aired Monday night. Will share the digital version soon!

In the meantime check us out on CBS Miami with Lisa Petrillo. This lady in red was complimented by our classic Red Carpet look and she wore it well.

MIAMI (CBS4)- They’ve been popping up across major cities in the United States, including Los Angeles and New York, and now a blow dry only salon has made its way to South Florida.
Wash, blow and…go! That’s the motto at the first blow dry bar ever to hit South Florida.
BLO at Mary Brickell Village offers their service in less than 35 minutes for $35.
For women who blow dry their hair or sit in a stylist chair for a blow dry, the news will most likely blow them away, in a good way. That’s because  high-end salons may charge $60, $80 or even $100 for blowouts.
“Long hair, short hair, whatever the texture its $35 every time,” said owner Fatima Lalani.
There’s no cutting, clipping or dying at Blo. Customers come in and order off the Blo bar menuby choosing their favorite styles.
There are six blow options to choose from, including the sleek Executive Suite Blo. Want something a bit more casual, yet sophisticated? Lalani encourages clients to try the Hunt Club Blo. That’s because she said it’s perfect for polo parties.
There’s also the High Society Blo, which has elegance, the sexy Hollywood Blo, the Sex, Hugs and Rock and Roll Blo, which is edgy, and the Boho Braid Blo, their newest trend.
“The different styles represent the different tension going on in hair right now…Boho Braid is trendy, like what Lauren Conrad wears,”  Lalani said.
Blo, open seven days a week, began in Canada and is now franchised in NY, LA and Texas.
Blo in Brickell is located at 900 S. Miami Avenue, Unit 129. For more information, call 305.374.BLO5 or visit their Web site.

Doors are blo-ing open soon!

My baby is starting to look like a little blo - she has tile wall, flooring, wallpaper, lighting, and of course the blo bars!

It's hard to keep up with the different websites and articles/blogs being posted all over Miami sites. These women are practically clawing at the door trying to get in...and we are almost ready to blo!

Love this cute blurb from www.suziesays.com, posted on inthesceneMiami.com:


Cause You Can’t Blo Yourself….
Blow Dry Bars have been a big hit throughout cities around the country so it’s only right for them to start popping up around Miami. This fall, Blo Blow Dry Bar will be opening up at The Shops at Mary Brickell Village.

Blo prides itself in being the original blow dry bar and specializes solely on blow jobs –you know, like for hair.
The trendy salon where scissors and chemicals are forbidden offers affordable deals for men, women, and even young girls.
