Blow Styling Bar Spreads Awareness For A Healthy Bronx
“Beauty from the Inside Out”
When it comes to spreading health and fitness tips with feeling truly beautiful from the inside out, clients, residents and new customers knows that the Blow Styling Bar is the place to go. Located at 1741 Colden Avenue, the newly added salon right next door to Community Board 11 is the one stop place to pamper and relax on any day of the week.
Recently, owner and colorist Rachael Idaspe along with Business partner and masseuse, Tina Savignano got together with Bharati Kemraj, Founder and Dance Choreographer of the Bharati Dance Academy and planned a complimentary day just for the community. It included awareness about looking good, feeling great, health and fitness tips from experts in the industry, hair blow outs, Bollywood dance/workout performances, healthy snacks, massages and one on one conversations with beauty experts.
Everyone who walked through the doors were greeted and treated to delicious snacks provided by PBQ (Peter’s Barbecue) Smokehouse and enjoyed Bollywood performances and workout tips. In every aspect, customers, new comers and clients all felt like they were taking a trip around the world and back right here in the Bronx with the fusion of cultures all provided in one location.
“We are here in the community. It’s a place where I grew up and I have lots of memories. I want everyone to know that we are not only here to provide service but we are here to build relationships and friendships,” says Rachael. “There is nothing better than people coming back and bringing others because we gave then that feeling of trust and assist in expanding their knowledge about health and beauty. I just love it,” added Tina as she demonstrated muscle flexibility with various massages that clients can do for themselves.
“I have never been to a place where I learned about my hair, get a massage, tips on muscle stretching and see performances while snacking on something healthy. Here at the Blow Styling Bar it seems to happen every day. I think it is a well needed spot for the entire community and others should take this as an example because our community suffers from such a high rate of health disparities with people just feeling down about themselves. This is definitely an uplifting place to be,” says first timer Indy Churaman.
