Blow Drys & Updos
The ultimate blow dry, refined over years of shaping London's signature styles. Our look book brings together 12 distinct blow drys, updos and braids, from soft waves to sculpted knots, whether it's your weekly appointment or your wedding day.
GOOD VIBES, GOOD HAIR
Best place to have hair tousled, tamed and tonged to perfection.
Duck & Dry offers the perfect setting to glam up with the girls, the salon boasts it’s own Prosecco bar for the ultimate pampering experience. [...] We love it for hen-dos and birthdays.
"Duck & Dry is perfect for a quick glow-up."
From the makers of perfect blow dry,
Duck & Dry have bottled up their secret formulas in their natural products.
Create AM to PM hairstyles using Duck & Dry's styling heroes - Oomph! texture spray and Blow Dry In A bottle.
Blow Dry In A Bottle creates a perfect blow dry style by adding volume, lift and texture to hair. It is also long-lasting and holds style in place for longer.
Though the plush interiors and trendy backlit egg booths alone are enough to entice you in, it's the chic clientele skipping out of the doors with luscious locks that really sell the place. Whether it's during your lunch break or before some drinks, you can guarantee a perfect finish in just 45 minutes.
Take it from us, the signature looks (a "Classic Duck" or a "Fine Feathered") are even better with a pink negroni in hand.
"Relax and enjoy a blow dry from Duck & Dry, London’s leading blow dry bar."
"Naturally, this is a salon with serious style. Think glamorous golden egg-pods for styling, glorious greenery and wildflowers, a fabulous cocktail list & a particularly spoiling VIP area called The Sanctuary, where you can sit back and enjoy all manner of glossing, nourishing and strengthening treatments"
V.F.'s top tip: take some girlfriends before a night out on the tiles, because getting glammed up surrounded by a multitude of make-up mirrors and selfie lights while sipping on prosecco and listening to ABBA on full blast is really ducking fun.

The Classic blow dry includes a wash before styling, at £49. The Express blow dry starts at the styling chair, so it suits hair that is already clean and dry, and it is £44.
It varies from person to person. Hair type, length, texture and how you look after it all play a part, and with the right care a style can hold for up to five days. Keep it away from water, sleep on silk, and lift the roots between days with a light mist of Mega Volume Spray.
Yes, and every hair type is welcome. Tell your stylist whether you want the curl smoothed out or defined and kept, and they will choose the tools and technique to match.
Yes, and they are some of our most requested looks. Updos start at £54 and braids from £40, with a menu of on-trend styles from sleek buns to ponytails, twists and plaits, all in our Look Book. For weddings, a trial is £90 and bridal styling £150.
A short menu of add-ons you can pair with any style: Deep Conditioning or a Scalp Detox at £15, Bond Repair or a High Shine Gloss at £30, a Kérastase Fusio Dose at £30, and a head massage at £10. Add one when you book or ask your stylist on the day.

Mega Volume Spray is the one behind most of our blow drys at £25, Hair Primer preps hair before heat at £22, and Oomph! adds texture and grip on day two. Everything is made in small batches in the UK, free from parabens and SLS, and colour-safe.
A keratin blow dry is a smoothing treatment where a keratin-based formula is worked through the hair and sealed with heat. It reduces frizz, adds shine and makes hair easier to manage, with results lasting several weeks, unlike a standard blow dry, which styles the hair for a few days. Prices start at £160 including a wash, and hair cannot be coloured for seven days before or after.
A haircut and a professional blow dry in one appointment, £99 with a wash. Your hair is cut to shape, then styled and finished, so you leave with a fresh cut and a polished look rather than a damp one.
A bouncy blow dry is a style built around soft volume and movement, with the ends curled under or out for a rounded, full finish rather than a flat one. It is created with a round brush and is one of our signature Duck & Dry looks.
Yes. Little Dos is our service for under 11s at £35, whether that is for a party, a birthday, or a wedding. Same chairs, same stylists, slightly shorter appointment.
Yes, for up to 60 guests. Every salon has a dedicated group styling table and a private event space, in five of London's best-known addresses. Choose partial hire, a half-day, or the whole salon. Enquire here
