The new bar is owned and operated by local entrepreneur Shaela Blanchard. Originally from Chadron, Nebraska, Blanchard received her Cosmetology license in 2006 from College of Hair Design in Lincoln. After graduating from Cosmetology school, she wanted to pursue a bigger dream in a bigger city, so she moved to Denver. Blanchard worked various remote jobs and eventually landed at a tech company. In 2020, she lost her job at the tech company due to Covid-19. Stepping up and taking control of her life, she decided to be her own boss and explored franchise models. Between having a Cosmetology background and a love for beauty, Blo Blow Dry Bar was the perfect fit. Now, she is ready to open her first Blo Blow Dry Bar in Centennial.

“I lost my father when I was young and grew up watching my mom raise me as a single mother,” said Blanchard in a statement. “Watching my mom work hard with one income and then going through something similar myself, working hard and supporting my family has always been the motivation behind my entrepreneurial spirit. Blo Blow Dry Bar allows me to create a balanced life and pamper the community at the same time.”

To celebrate the opening, Blo Blow Dry Bar guests will be able to purchase a single discounted blowout for $40, this offer runs from July 22 to July 31.

Blo Blow Dry Bar is on a mission to create a space where people of all ages, ethnicities, and orientations are welcomed, represented, and made to feel gorgeous while emphasizing the need for self-care and wellness. Combining a sophisticated design with a fun and energetic environment, Blo cultivates a seamless and enjoyable experience for guests upon their arrival, during, and after their services. Expertly trained blo-ers are available for consultation seven days a week to meet the needs of all guests. The brand’s hair menu includes five signature styles from sleek and straight to bouncy curls, plus a wide assortment of customized looks including updo’s and braids.
