Frequently Asked Questions
Is Drybar growing or shrinking?
Drybar doesn't have enough SBA loan activity in both FY2025 and FY2026 to calculate a reliable year-over-year trend. For context, it ranks #26 of 156 Personal Care & Beauty brands by total SBA loan count since FY2020 -- a snapshot of scale, if not of trend.
How much does it cost to open a Drybar franchise?
We don't have that figure -- investment ranges and fees come from a franchisor's Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), which this site doesn't parse (see methodology). The average SBA loan size of $564K (54% above the typical Personal Care & Beauty brand's $366K) is a rough proxy, but SBA loans often cover only part of total investment.
What's the SBA loan default rate for Drybar?
0 of 31 SBA loans to Drybar franchisees (0.0%) have been charged off since FY2020, compared to 1.5% across all Personal Care & Beauty brands.
