Blo Blow Dry Bar Continues National Expansion with Oklahoma Development

Blo Blow Dry Bar announced today the signing of a franchise agreement in Edmond. This agreement will continue the significant franchise development momentum Blo Blow Dry Bar saw in 2021.

Leading this expansion are husband and wife duo Jerry and Tanya Elledge. Formerly in the nightlife and entertainment business, Jerry is an entrepreneur by nature having started his own business in early adulthood. Tanya has a MBA and PMP, currently working in the software industry.

Looking to better serve their community, the duo are ready for their next entrepreneurial adventure. The Elledge’s were first introduced to the brand after visiting a Blo in Tulsa. Tanya always had an interest in owning her own blow dry bar and after learning about the franchisee support and easy onboarding process, the duo were sold.

Slated to open this fall with site selection well underway, Jerry and Tanya are ready to blow the Edmond community away.

“If I need a blow dry bar, so does the rest of the community,” said Tanya. “I am so excited to roll out the pink carpet to the Edmond community and provide a much needed service to those like myself. We look forward to giving back through charitable organizations and playing a role in big moments like high school dances, formals, weddings and more.”

“Blo Blow Dry Bar is backed by immense corporate support and the team is so passionate and knowledgeable,” said Jerry. “There is a demand for this type of service and we are here to meet that need. Tanya and I are excited to make Blo a neighborhood name in Edmond.”

Blo Blow Dry Bar creates a space where people of all ages, ethnicities and orientations are welcomed, represented and made to feel gorgeous while emphasizing the need for self-care and wellness. Combining a sophisticated design with a fun and energetic environment, the blow dry bar cultivates a seamless and enjoyable experience for guests upon their arrival, during and after their services. Expertly trained bloers are available for consultation seven days a week to meet the needs of all guests.

The brand’s hair menu includes their signature styles, ranging from sleek and straight to lively and bouncy curls, with customizable options such as braids, ponytails and updos for any occasion. Blo also offers makeup services from expert artists on-hand to help guests look and feel amazing for any occasion.
