Blo Blow Dry Bar, North America’s original blow dry bar and blow dry bar franchise, is set to hold the grand opening of its newest bar on April 27 in Lewis Center. Located at 1198 E Powell Road, the new bar will offer guests five signature styles on its hair menu, a la carte options, a variety of hair treatments, plus five signature makeup looks and a brand new section of customized looks to provide endless inspiration. 

The new bar is owned and operated by local entrepreneur Elizabeth Jay. After immigrating from the Dominican Republic to the Columbus area in 2003, Jay spent a large part of her career in the fashion industry before making a shift into the banking and finance industry. As a Latina and single-mother of two, she has a strong passion for women leadership development and empowerment, with the recent passing of her mother who had always wanted to open a salon of her own, Jay was inspired to see out her mother’s dream.

“Blo Blow Dry Bar and myself have incredibly identical ideals, with the brand being ran by and focusing on the development of women as leaders,” said Jay. “I will be able to use this location as a way to work and share my skills with my daughter, and carry on the legacy of my mother.”

To celebrate the opening, Blo Blow Dry Bar guests will be able to purchase a blow out for a $15 dollar discount until April 30th. The location is hosting a grand opening celebration on Arpil 27 at the Pancake House Lewis Center Family Diner, where they have partnered with several other beauty and wellness brands for a raffle of giftcards and other prizes.
