Blo Me Away
Having naturally wavy hair is an asset. That's if you can manage it well. There are good hair days and bad hair days, and whether it is one or the other is usually dependent on hair care products, hormones, the weather, or my current work load. Going to the salon to have my hair JUST blow dried is something I have always LOVED! I remember when I was pregnant with R, and I could not have my hair straightened because of the chemicals, I would go to the salon almost every week to have my hair blow dried! If I didn't I'd be a cranky, pregnant woman and that isn't a good thing, right? Now when I need a quick pampering and I'm too busy or lazy to fix my hair myself, off to a blow dry I go.Recently, the SoMoms got invited to the opening of Manila's first blow dry bar called Blo Blow Dry Bar. Blo is the original blow dry bar in the US since it opened its first branch in 2007. It has 26 locations in the states and has now finally expanded to Asia, with its first ever branch in Manila!It's first branch opened in one of my fave malls, Power Plant, Rockwell. Blo's interiors are welcoming and sleek.I specially liked the mosaic-tiled wall behind the wash station.Looking through the Blo menuI saw they offered many interesting options.

They also offer their signature Blo On The Go (BOTG) service which comes to you at work and at home, or wherever your wish. They also have a signature Blo Bridal service available in-bar or on location. Howard Chua, Blo Manila owner, told me that they can open their stores early, even by 7am on a by appointment basis. I was thinking this is great for Rockwell residents who want to get their hair done before going off to work!Blo Manila branches now open at Power Plant Mall and SerendraCheck out Blo in Rockwell and Serendra and its social media pages:Thank you Blo Manila!
