Official Ribbon Cutting & Grand Opening of Drybar Montecito 

The official ribbon cutting ceremony and grand opening of Drybar Montecito at 1046 Coast Village Road, Suite J, was held on Wednesday, July 10. 

Marking the day official for owner Erin Moone Lazzaro was the special recognition and plaque by the Santa Barbara South Coast Chamber of Commerce Director of Communications Mary Lynn Harms-Romo and the Chamber’s Advertising Manager Laurie Barene. Harms-Romo said, “I’m so glad that you are here, in this great location in beautiful Montecito.”

Speaking at the ribbon cutting, City of Santa Barbara Councilmember 3rd District Oscar Gutierrez welcomed Moore and her business to town, presenting her with a SB City Service pin, saying, “Thank you to the Chamber and to Erin for opening a new business. I know how difficult it is, we are inspired by you. I know the community appreciates it.”

He was followed by Coast Village Association President Beth Sullivan, who said “Since you’ve arrived, you’ve jumped into every single community event before you opened, and this community loves that and we love you. We are happy to support Drybar.”

Erin thanked the Chamber, Montecito, the CVA and the Montecito Association, her husband Nick Lazzaro, her store manager, and staff. She invited that, “There are so many events in Montecito and we believe every event should start at Drybar. We are here to start the fun and celebrate weddings, graduations, proms, date nights, mom’s night out and more. It is nice to own a Drybar and make people feel beautiful, like I do with my StarCycle business downtown. Montecito is definitely having a moment right now, and watching it elevate from the shops and people, everyone is so welcoming.”

Moone is the founder of StarCycle in 2012 and grew it into a franchise model with over 20 locations. She is a graduate of UCSB, has taught yoga, spin and Barre3, and is a mother of two.
