Wish Dry Bar operates two locations. Bellevue Avenue in West Vancouver and the Fairmont Pacific Rim in Coal Harbour. Both offer the same service menu with the same products and trained stylists.
I opened Wish Dry Bar in January 2021 with a specific focus. No lengthy chemical services. No three-hour appointments for something that should take 45 minutes. We built the menu around styling, finishing, and targeted treatments that fit into real schedules.
We use Davines, Kevin Murphy, and Kerastase. Not because they're the most expensive options, but because they perform differently than drugstore lines. Better hold. Less damage over time. Results that actually last past day one. Every service uses professional-grade products from start to finish.
The team trains regularly. Techniques change, trends shift, and hair types vary enough that there's no one approach that works for everyone. When you sit down at Wish Dry Bar, whether you're in Ambleside or at the Fairmont, the stylist is going to ask questions before they touch your hair. That consultation isn't a formality.
A wash, condition, and professional style using round brushes and high-grade dryers. Results hold 3 to 5 days depending on your hair type and routine. Several styles available including sleek, beachy, voluminous, and classic curls.
Learn MoreWedding day styling for the bride and full bridal party. Trials are required, not optional. We work with your dress, venue, veil, and timeline before the day arrives. On-location services available across the North Shore and Greater Vancouver.
Learn MoreA smoothing treatment that works at the hair cortex level using botanical proteins. No formaldehyde. Frizz reduction and improved manageability last 2 to 4 months. Results vary by hair type but the difference in morning routine is usually significant.
Learn MorePrecision cuts designed around your hair's natural growth pattern, your face shape, and how much time you actually spend styling at home. We do not cut first and explain later. The consultation comes before the scissors.
Learn MoreHair removal using a twisted cotton thread. No chemicals, no wax, no skin irritation. Threading removes hair from the follicle with a level of precision that waxing cannot match. Full shaping takes about 10 minutes. Results last 2 to 4 weeks.
Learn MoreProfessional makeup application for weddings, events, and photo shoots. We work with products chosen for camera performance and wear time. Full face, eye-focused, and touch-up services available. Often booked alongside bridal hair for the wedding party.
Learn MoreA 10-minute targeted service for gray coverage between full color appointments. Professional color matching to your existing formula applied precisely at the root. Not a full color service. A fast, specific fix for a recurring problem.
Learn MoreThe West Vancouver location on Bellevue is the original. It's the flagship. Full service menu, larger space, and the salon Peter Wilds designed with cream walls and natural light that you'll recognize from our photos. This is the location most North Shore clients use for bridal bookings and Cezanne treatments.
The Vancouver location inside the Fairmont Pacific Rim is on the 5th floor near their spa. Extended hours starting at 7am make it practical for downtown professionals, hotel guests, or anyone heading to a Coal Harbour or Yaletown event and wanting to get styled first. Same products, same training, same results.
Both locations are bookable through Phorest. If you're not sure which to choose, the contact page has hours and direct phone numbers for each.
