Destino Says...
Its location next door to exercise mecca Psycle and right by Oxford Circus has led to Dryby becoming a firm favourite with the fashion, beauty and wellness crowd. The relaxed vibe and discreet, attentive service means you can be in with sweaty hair and chipped nails and out with a swishy new do and the coolest mani you’ve had to date – all before work begins.
As famous for its blow-dries as it is for its nails, the street level of Dryby is dedicated to all things hair. Blow-dry wise, the menu is a carefully curated collection of key styles – from sleek old-Hollywood curls to festival-worthy waves. But their expansion to offer cuts, colour and nourishing treatments from Olaplex means that Dryby is so much more than a blow-dry bar.
The basement is where to head for a mani/pedi. Their nail offering has garnered considerable attention, thanks in part to collaborations with beauty industry insiders like Alex Steinherr and residencies from some of the UK’s best nail experts like Harriet Westmoreland. All of their technicians are brilliant but we particularly love Megan Margot Evans. Dryby are responsible for elevating the whole concept of nail art – here subtle accents like metallic lines, reverse french manicures and tiny dots give nails an elegant and modern feel. Opt for a whole hand or pick out key digits from £5 a nail.
