@@AlbertoGutierrez-zv1lo do you have $250,000 to give me? Also, you missed the entire point, she lied and is making people feel bad about themselves because of her exaggeration. I don’t think it’s intentional. She just didn’t think or in that moment truly believed she “pulled herself up by her $250,000 boot straps” because she worked hard. But she had an initial advantage. It’s privilege at its finest - like when Kim K told everyone “to get their asses out there and work” when her entire success is based on her x rated video and pre-existing financial privileges and connections. ALSO - saying she can’t believe people would go to work at a job everyday if they didn’t love their work is the most privileged thing I’ve ever heard. Does she truly believe there are people that love scrubbing toilets for a living or cleaning bed pans in senior living homes… NO. But we need those jobs to function as a society and sometimes people don’t have the luxury of doing anything else. It just seemed very out of touch but I have no doubt she’s bright and a hard worker. Some people just aren’t born with her brains, access to education, resources etc. BUT it says a lot about who she is as a person and how out of touch she is to say anything negative about people in less desirable situations.
If this company had been available in the 80s and 90s, I definitely would have been a regular customer! But not quite accurate that no one handed her anything. What about that quarter million dollar investment from her brother?
And also the safety net she seemingly has with her husbands salary supporting their family allowing her the flexibility to risk opening a business. People working paycheck to paycheck can’t just try new things and see how they go!
@@AlbertoGutierrez-zv1lo that’s a completely irrelevant statement. May or may not be true, but does not change the fact that someone did hand her a lot of money lol. Yes, not everyone could’ve created something with it. But would this lady have been successful without it?
wait... how does the math work out!? so many huge dollar investors. have they been paid back? also she relied on a brother with 250k to give, that was a huge advantage & gift that is so rare! it's not just that easy for everyone as she says. we have to acknowledge the wealth & privilege she had over any average entrepreneur
Shelby, I love these types of videos you create ( along with the vlogs of course). You do such a professional video. This was so interesting to here how Alli created Dry Bar. I will have to read her book. I can’t wait to see who you select next. Great job!!
She made it work and thats awesome but she was a little tone death. She got 250k from her brother, she had a nanny to help her, she clearly had some money by the time she was in her 30's. She talked about living in small apartment, working job, etc un her 20s which have nothing to do with her starting point at 30.
As a small business owner who didn't start my business until I was 40 years old, I really LOVED this interview. She's a rockstar! I was a stay-at-home mom for 15 years and I always had this itch paired with a looming fear of what would happen to me and the kids if something happened to my husband or his income. Having my own business is a ton of hard work and stress, but it's also a wonderful feeling to be fully self-sufficient. For anyone out there considering whether to take the plunge, it's never too late to put yourself out there and chase the American Dream! ❤ P.S. I started my company from home with only $5K so you don't always need a lot.
You are such a great interviewer because you actually let the guests really chat about the question and don’t interrupt all the time like a lot of people do! ☺️
I did appreciate this interview, However...it is very misleading for Ali to suggest all she did "on her own" when she had a brother who was willing to invest $250K and she had a mother who was willing to offer childcare and support. Some people just DO NOT have any of those things. I don't want to discourage anyone, but I think when people are talking of their success they owe it to people to not pretend they didn't have a village of people to help them along.
She doesn’t suggest that she did on her own she’s very open about all the help she had! I think she’s smart for recognizing other people’s strengths and how they might be a better fit certain parts of the business
I really enjoyed this video Shelby. Great story telling amazing shots and great interview questions. It’s inspiring and motivating to start my own business.
Great content! Totally reading the book. Loved the flow of the interview. The person who helped with the filming did an awesome job which allowed you to concentrate on the interview. Nicely done. ❤
Im so glad you talked about, what now? Such a misconception that once you accomplish a huge goal, its time to do nothing. My husband and I face the challenge every day asking whats our purpose now? We wanted to buy extreme fixer uppers, remodel them and turn them into income. We did it while working our reg jobs. Hardest 7 years of our lives but we love remodeling houses so we didnt mind the work We accomplished it, did 2 houses. Ones an Airbnb, now what? I have another biz idea, had it for over a year. This video inspired me so much that as soon as this comments done, im creating a website and launcing that biz Selby im now watching your videos from start to finish, love this new format, im Hooked!
Shelby, another ball knocked out of the park! You are terrifc in what you do. Thank you for working so hard to make it look so simple and easy in what you do!!!
I love Shelby’s videos and she’s such a good interviewer but this video and interviewee come across quite tone deaf. I wish UA-camrs would start interviewing people who are not SO on their high horse that they still come across relatable and aspirational. It’s the subtle, ‘you make it work’ or ‘you don’t get into it for the money’. Sure, maybe this person could make it work or didn’t get into it for the money but then that’s what she should’ve said…’I made it work’ of ‘I didn’t get into it for the money’. More than half the people in the world cannot just afford to do that (ie. Don’t have support from their parents, can’t afford nanny’s and after school programs, don’t have a brother to invest thousands etc). I just sometimes feel like to sell yourself as this person who, against all odds, did something amazing…whilst simultaneously coming off a bit detached from reality makes for such a boring interview because very few will feel inspired by this! Once again, given how much effort and time Shelby puts into these videos, I feel like she would be so much better off interviewing people who are perhaps lesser known but have incredible stories and are inspirational.
Long time listener, first time caller. Great find and I really enjoyed the video. I wonder if you'd be open to posting a longer, less edited version of the conversation on a podcast channel. Sometimes I find that the way guests approach questions, storytelling, and even ask questions themselves is as compelling as the tidbits
So excited for this video, Shelby! I'm a huge fan and Barfly member of Drybar! I love their services. Also, wanted to add that the Liquid Glass Miracle Smoothing Sealant is everything! 🙌
I loved the interview and learning more about a company i've used consistently for years. It would've been nice if you discussed the issues and criticisms that drybar has had (which I assume led to them saying we're absolutely selling one day). If you go there long enough, you notice certain experience luxuries don't exist anymore (for example, most shops don't offer the mimosa anyone or any drinks) or the decline in quality/services that a looooooot of people have noted over the years including the stylists.
Ive been looking forward to this one! I just read her book. Lots of lessons in there both business and personal. I love hearing about female founders :)
I have long hair and whenever I dry my hair without a blow dry, I get unwanted smaller curls, which I hate. Is this for men too lol? I would go to one totally.
She had to go and ruin an otherwise good interview with the “anyone can do this I wasn’t handed anything” 🤦🏻♀️ nah just your brothers $250,000 investment, and a husband with a salary that was able to support the family so you could have the opportunity and flexibility to go for your dreams. So tone deaf.
Most likely before, I don't think that money was wired directly to her personal bank account but put into a business account of a separate business entity or something like that to maximize tax benefits.
The dry bar is nice…from an outsider perspective. Some companies aren’t made with you in mind and that’s fine I guess. I never thought they would be able to do a blowout on my coils
Dinner w the president of Revlon? You sell a system , a franchise and products… hello!!! But the business hookups. Tell me she doesn’t have a family full of entrepreneurs!
The reason these videos don't do well is...look around...read the room...when people are struggling to eat and survive we don't wanna hear about a multi millionaire
Actually that’s so so so so untrue. Speak for yourself but actually it motivates, inspires, excites and interests me. Could sit at home feeling sorry for myself that I could be “struggling to eat to survive” OR YOU GO GET IT! Take ideas from those who have succeeded.
For some people with different hair types, it's easier to have a professional do it to get a specific look. I have naturally curly hair, but like to wear my hair straight and the only way for me to get the straight look (without it looking poofy) is to get it professionally done. They don't just blow dry - they also flat iron and curl based on the style you want.
Sooooo much bitterness in these comments, can we just be supporters and advocates of other people especially businesses WOMENNNNN Actually that’s so so so so untrue. Speak for yourself but actually it motivates, inspires, excites and interests me. Could sit at home feeling sorry for myself that I could be “struggling to eat to survive” OR YOU GO GET IT!

Great video!
Her brother invested $250,000 in her first brick and mortar store.
“Nobody handed me anything.” 😅
That was so funny. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps like me... except my bootstraps came with a quarter million dollar boost lolol.
If someone handed you $250k I guarantee you wouldn’t do anything nearly as successful as this

That’s what I’m sitting here thinking. Without her brothers investment, this would of never happened. Lucky her.
I don’t understand why people feel the need to say things like that, we don’t all have brothers that would just invest $250K in us 😢😂

Ahh another, you can do it on your own just like me, story. Well Alli, I don't have a brother that can loan me 250K....
Absolutely love Drybar! Coffee in hand and watching!
love that she had kids when she started the business! so inspirational
Really enjoyed that interview. It would be good to hear more from Alli on UA-cam
Thank you Shelby for this video, it really inspired me! Love hearing more founders' stories:)

I didn’t realise the dry bar video was yours at first. Almost scrolled past. I wondered why this one and smart sweets you aren’t in the thumbnail?
I’d love to see a video about if every state is balanced like what avg income is vs food cost vs rent etc
I freaking LOVE this type of videos Shelby ❤❤❤. Good job! 🎉❤
Now I want to go to DryBar!! I've never been, but people playing with my hair is my favorite thing ever, so I know I'd love it!
I truly love the production of this video😘 I truly pray you can do more of these types of videos ❤ it’s giving cnbc how I made it?
I wanted to tell you this video never showed up in my feed, yet all your other videos do.
This was such a great interview
Thanks!
Do NOT donate to youtubers or any kind of video content creaters. They do NOT appreciate it. They see their followers as useful idiots.

I loved hearing her story & this video!!! 😊
I loved this video!
The story to go from scratch starting a business to the success story is the best
250k isn't scratch.
I think you missed the 250k 🤣🤣
Great interview!
I love your Blazer. Where did you buy it?
It’s from Sezane!
I've never heard of drybar, maybe because I'm a guy, or it's just a west coast thing. But I still found it quite interesting to hear her story.
Thats inspiration!. It was worth watching the video 🎉.
I’m not even going say nunthing b/c I work there 😂😂😂😂😂

Amazing video!

Great vid
first time ive heard of this company
It'd be cool to see an opposite of this, where you interview a simple-living person who DOES want to sit on a beach all day 🏖
wow thats a lot of money :D Greetings from Chicago :D
I love Drybar!
Their reviews for most of the LA locations are pretty bad, bet that buyer is having regrets.
The hairdressers don't make enough. The prices have gone from reasonable to high. They charge you for missing an appointment.
Damn…I had to search Sunday night to actually find this 😳 UA-cam wtf? 🤨
These founder series are all the motivation one needs 👌👌👌
Shelby, how fantastic! I loved this interview. I do remember Drybar and will check out "Squeeze" soon! Keep up the good work! 🏝🏖🏝
The thumbnail's hand and blow dryer looks wonky.
Great story.

Is that 255 million before, or after taxes?
Most likely before, I don't think that money was wired directly to her personal bank account but put into a business account of a separate business entity or something like that to maximize tax benefits.
@@Jeroen74 I know it was before taxes It was just a stupid joke.
How much is a Blow out now? Still 40$?
ranges based on the city you're in, but most are like 55-60 now or the membership lowers it a bit.
Do your guest know ahead of time what questions you ask them?
Sometimes! In this case no, she preferred to just go straight into the interview!
They closed bunch of locations

Listen to her, Shelby. You can learn how to work.
I'm not a girly girl; so I mean this is a genuine question, not as a diss: Why do I need someone else to dry my hair for me?

Shelby, I hope you really think about what you did to Orlando. It's a shame what you did to his channel.
She kept saying JIFS and I have no respect now. Smh.
I think it actually is pronounced JIF.
The creator of this file format prefers the soft-G pronunciation; you can now respect Shelby back again 👍
