Best Blow Job

It's a scientific fact that blow-drying your own hair will never make it look as good as when someone else does it for you. Especially if that other person is a hair stylist. More specifically, a blow-drying guru at California-born Drybar, our winner for favorite blow job this year. You can't get a cut or a color at either of the two recently opened locations, but the shop's beauty is its narrow focus: shampoos, blow outs, and a couple of simple updos. For just $40, choose from a menu of styles (the signature look is the Straight Up, a no-fuss blow out with some body, but more interesting is the Manhattan, a polished take that looks like a 2012 version of the Rachel). Then a stylist will transform tired, end-of-the-workday hair into a sleek, shiny 'do. Or try a night out at the salon: Drybar hosts parties with drinks and, of course, blow outs. If you prefer, for $85, stylists make house calls. We'll stick to the store—there's something about walking into this cheery white-and-yellow-decorated salon that's an instant pick-me-up. 4 West 16th Street, 212-561-5392, thedrybar.com (10011); 119 West 56th Street, 212-561-5392 (10019)
