eDry Brow & Blow Dry Bar

On April 15 Fox Chapel Living and Fox Chapel residents had the opportunity to Blow Out Tax Day as they enjoyed a VERY di@erent and VERY Beautiful resident mixer!

Owners of ESSpa Kozmetika Organic Skincare, Eva and Scott Kerschbaumer are a little crazy. In December of 2014, they learned that Top 9is Pizza next to their spa had closed. So on January 21, 2015 they began building eDry.bar – the 1st and Only Hungarian Brow and Blow Dry Bar in the United States – and in March, their new Hair Mecca opened right next door to ESSpa. From Pizza Shop to Beauty Bar in 40 days? Who does that? What Eva has created is simply stunning – and how Scott was able to seamlessly connect it to the existing spa space will leave you speechless. Believe me when I tell you to go check this place out, because words do not do it justice. And if that isn't enough, eDry is open from 6:30 a.m. – 8 p.m. so you can look picture-perfect whenever you want – even Sundays! Need- less to say, the space made for a very lively event.

In ESSpa fashion there was a gorgeous spread of food, free- Aowing champagne, and a dozen of Eva-trained Beauty Profes- sionals present to perform a fabulous blowout or shape eyebrows to perfection. 9ere was a makeup artist (to the stars) to apply Jane Rish and Barbara Sterrenburg a perfect look. 9ere was even a sporty Porsche parked in front continued...
