A blow-dry (föönisoeng) is a classic hairdressing service where the hairdresser washes the hair, blow-dries it into shape and finishes it with various styling products. A blow-dry suits anyone who wants to start the day with a quick, fashionable hairstyle — for a party evening, a business event, a photo session or simply for a confident look. In Estonia, a blow-dry is offered by every hair salon from Tallinn to Tartu and from Pärnu to smaller county centres. A blow-dry need not be an exclusive luxury; it is an everyday service that helps get the hair into shape quickly and gives the combined result of washing + styling.
What is a blow-dry and which hair types does it suit?
A blow-dry means washing, treating and shaping the hair with a hairdryer. The hairdresser uses various brushes and blow-drying techniques to give the hair the desired shape — straight and smooth, wavy, voluminous or cleverly tousled. To finish the styling, fixing products (hairspray, waxes, oils) are used depending on the hair type and the desired result.
A blow-dry suits every hair type — fine, thick, curly, straight, coloured and untreated hair. Blow-drying short, medium-length and long hair uses different techniques. An experienced hairdresser chooses the right blow-drying temperature, brush size and styling products according to your hair type and desired look.
Blow-dry in Estonia — prices and how the service goes
The price of a blow-dry in Estonia depends on hair length and the salon: short hair 15–25 €, medium hair 25–40 €, long hair 35–55 €. Special styling (for example large curls, a glamorous hairstyle for a party evening) costs an extra 10–25 €. A package — wash + cut + blow-dry — is often cheaper than separately.
The service begins with washing the hair with a suitable shampoo and typical care (conditioner, hair mask). Caring for wet hair is important as the basis of styling ability. Blow-drying starts with 70–80% drying, then the hairdresser uses a round brush and a more precise temperature choice to give shape. Finally the hairstyle is fixed with a suitable product. The whole procedure lasts 30–60 minutes depending on hair length.
How to choose a hair salon that does a blow-dry?
A blow-dry requires experience specifically in styling — not all hairdressers are equally skilled in blow-drying techniques. Look at Instagram photos (many hairdressers post their blow-dries) to see the hairdresser's style. Some hairdressers specialise in the classic blowout, others in wavy hairstyles and some in formal hairstyles.
Read Google reviews about longer experiences. Experienced hair salons are widely represented in Tallinn, Tartu and Pärnu — Esimene Ilustuudio in Tallinn, Ilona Ilusalong in Tartu, Ilusalong Felicia in Tallinn and Ilusalong Le Salon in Narva offer a quality blow-dry. An experienced hairdresser adapts the technique to your hair type rather than doing a universal version.
How many types of blow-dry do hair salons offer?
The classic blowout — straight, smooth and shiny hair that is beautiful in its simplicity. It suits everyday business events. A voluminous blow-dry uses a round brush and a larger airflow to give the hair high root volume — suitable for party evenings and photo sessions.
Loose waves are a popular romantic hairstyle — the hairdresser uses a round brush and blow-drying in a curving direction. A glamorous formal hairstyle combines a round brush, heated rollers and precise fixing — it lasts the whole evening. A men's blow-dry is the styling of short hair with a precise dryer and finishing products (wax, paste, pomade).
Blow-dry in Estonia's most popular cities
In Tallinn, every hair salon offers a blow-dry — the choice is wide. Tallinn has dozens of hair salons with hairdressers of different styles. In city-centre (Kesklinn) salons the price is usually a little higher than in Mustamäe and Lasnamäe, but the service is often top class.
In Tartu the choice is smaller, with prices typically 5–10% cheaper. In Pärnu, summer is the peak season — book in advance. In county centres such as Keila, Saue, Rapla and Jõgeva there are steady hairdressers for long-term relationships and the prices are the most affordable.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a blow-dry cost?
The price of a blow-dry in Estonia depends on hair length: short hair 15–25 €, medium hair 25–40 €, long hair 35–55 €. Formal hairstyles for party evenings cost an extra 10–25 €. In Tallinn prices are typically a little higher than in Tartu.
How long does a blow-dry result last?
A good-quality blow-dry lasts 1–3 days depending on hair type and daily activity. Fine hair loses its shape faster, thick and untreated hair holds longer. For a longer-lasting result, use hairspray and touch your hair as little as possible.
Does a blow-dry damage the hair?
Blow-drying without heat protection can, over the long term, dry out and split the hair. An experienced hairdresser always uses heat-protection products and the optimal temperature. A blow-dry once a week is safe for keeping the hair healthy.
When should you book a blow-dry?
For special events (wedding, party evening, photo session) book at least 1 week ahead. For a regular service, typically 1–2 days' notice is enough. On Friday and Saturday booking slots fill up quickly.
Can I get a blow-dry before and after colouring?
After colouring the hair a blow-dry is always done — it is part of the service. Before colouring it is worth not blow-drying for a few days, so that the hair is in its natural state for the colour analysis.
Who is allowed to do a blow-dry?
A blow-dry may be done by a certified hairdresser who has completed hairdressing training. Check the salon's qualification and the hairdresser's experience. For formal hairstyles, choose a hairdresser whose portfolio contains similar styles.
Is a blow-dry also suitable for a party evening?
Yes, many hair salons offer a specially formal blow-dry that lasts longer than the everyday version. Heated rollers and strong fixing are used. The price is typically 10–25 € more than the standard service.
Blow-dry in Tallinn vs Tartu — does the price differ?
In Tallinn prices are typically 5–10% higher than in Tartu. In Pärnu summer is the peak season and prices may rise. In county centres a blow-dry is often the most affordable, but the quality is stable.
