No more bad hair days! NZ’s first blow dry bar Pony Xpress opened on Friday inside the Glassons flagship on Broadway Newmarket doing blow waves for $35 in 30 minutes to zhuzh you up for a big night out.
The hair bar completes the instore shopping experience of a head-to-toe fit out from clothes to toes and hair and make up to boot.
Manu Dave, Kate Smith (pictured left) and Kelly Latu from award-winning Newmarket salon Blaze have developed a menu of eight styles, four of which will change out – for instance when top knots cease to be top dog – and retain four styles as permanent menu items. "We hope it will feed into the salon from here" says Manu, as Pony Xpress doesn’t do cuts so clients can pop down the road to Blaze salon for a full hairdressing experience.
You will be able to have one of eight hairstyles blow waved to perfection for that special meeting or big night out. It takes thirty minutes and costs $35 on dry hair or a wash and blow dry from $45.
Below: Stylist Rachel does an intricate side plait they call the Scarlett on Megan. Note this was a quick media demo, when you get yours done it will look immaculate!
Rachel brings in a piece from the left and holds it in the right hand, then a piece from the right and holds it in the left, all the way to the bottom. Rachel said you can pull pieces out to "mess it up a little" so it doesn’t look too pretty-pretty.
I heartily recommend you go in before your next party and get your choice of their eight hot looks. It’s an affordable and fast way to add the finishing touches to your outfit – whether or not you just bought that from Glassons, or not!
