“Dear PoPville,
I was wondering if you have heard any intel about what happened to Debby Harper salon in Dupont. This nail salon is a favorite of thousands of women (and men) across DC.
It is one of the few women-owned salons where nail technicians are encouraged to go by their real names, not make up American-sounding names, and empowers women owners and technicians. I was there a few weeks ago and they were busy as usual and all seemed well. All of a sudden about a week later everything was gone and the place was completely shut down. This is heartbreaking and many loyal customers are very concerned about Debby. It is completely empty inside.”
Their phone goes to voicemail but their website is still live.
