Drybar reviews

Let me start by saying this isn't a "angry man gets fired rant" this is a "how can you be so inconsiderate?!" For the first few months I worked at Drybar I thought wow how cool it will be to work at a salon that's a "come as you are, we are family kind of place" after being here for over a year I realized once your there they work you like a dog and complain more then encourage you. There were time we went without a brake or we couldn't take 5 min before taking our next client even I a day that was super busy. I'm talking back to back client, you think they would give people who have children at home time to check in for 5 min or return a text. Nope! Don't get me wrong I completely understand good customer service, and going above and beyond. But how far do you go when your staff suffers. Now we open at 7am it's cool for early birds but what if your on your way to work and revive a text at 6 that you don't need to come in till 9. Now you wake up at 5am or maybe later depending on where your coming from but the point is "thanks for the late notice!" I'm only traveling a half hour to 40 min to get to work on time. How inconsiderate and then have the nerve to tell me "well you still can't clock in." "Oh it's only a couple hours" are you kidding me?! Now let's talk about working now that you waited to clock in for a couple hours. Blowouts are $40 regardless of length and style, cool right! So for all the people reading this to get your hair done, JACKPOT! Not only are you paying nothing for a good style and ambiance but you can possibly (more then likely) get a free blowout. All you have to do is complain, something as simple as my part is on the wrong side or my water came late. Now as a stylist not only did your client receive a free blowout but they also have gotten another free service just so they can come back. Now what if everything went well and you did an updo that cost around $80 the stylist gets $8, oh you sold product nice! What's 10% of $35? I think you get the point. Let's not mention there are a few checks where your money is messed up because they forgot to add commission or some of your hours you worked that week. Oh your working on a holiday yea wait next year for that paid time. I can go on but I think I have said enough. So If you want to work for a place that just takes care of customer service but neglects the staff well Drybar is just the place for you!..

No breaks. When its slow, breaks become magically “mandatory” they open new shops and forget the old ones. Staff retention sucks. They found some tax loophole where instead of giving us the minimum wage, they take it from out tips to even it out. Some bartenders were stealing tips from stylist and we were NOT reimbursed.
