Pros
I've been fortunate to have the ability to be part of a big change as Drybar went through new management end of May 2022. In that timeframe, I've seen Debbie Webster, President of Drybar do INCREDIBLE things to build such a stronger culture, better morale and more pay with the 57 stores she is managing!! Is there a lot of work to be done? Absolutely, But the new private equity firm that bought Drybar is very dedicated to turn things around for better client and employee experiences! Our Franchisor, Wellbiz is also committed to providing the support the team needs to see Drybar continue to be the brand people trust for their blowouts!
Cons
When you take over and purchase a company/brand, you get the good with the bad. It's unfortunate but to be expected with mergers & acquisitions. I always say, Rome wasn't built in a day so it will take time to rebuild but the team in place to do it is dedicated, committed and determined! Thank you to Regent LP and Wellbiz for believing in the brand and helping us along the way!
