Google reviewers for Drybar Abilene generally praise the friendly staff, efficient service, and quality of blowouts, with many noting that stylists communicate effectively and create a welcoming atmosphere. However, several low-star reviews highlight a recurring issue regarding appointment reliability, specifically last-minute cancellations due to staff illness that leave clients without alternative options. Additionally, some customers report that stylists lack sufficient experience with specific hair types, such as curly hair or extensions, leading to unsatisfactory results despite courteous interactions.

They let me know 1.5 hours before my morning appointment that my stylist was sick and that there are no other options, other than to come in later that afternoon (after my event has already started). I’m sorry she’s sick but this has left me in a massive bind.
