Our Story
So, why did the founders of Drybar start a massage business? Because we love making people feel good. And, we love massages (who doesn’t?!). But, we found ourselves frustrated with the options out there: either mediocre discount establishments or overpriced spas ($250 for a massage? No, thank you!). Not to mention hard-to-book appointments, awkward checkout counters, and massages that were never the right pressure. So, we built the brand and massage experience we longed for.
Squeeze is the brainchild of Drybar Founders, Michael Landau & Alli Webb. When their former Drybar VP of Marketing, Brittany Driscoll, told them she was looking for a new challenge, the stars aligned, and together, they created Squeeze. In partnership with their award-winning architect Josh Heitler, Drybar Creative Director, Cam Webb, and Chief Operating Officer, David Werner, the team has their sights set on disrupting another outdated industry.
