Debby Harper Salon at 1605 17th Street, NW
“Dear PoPville,
I’ve been wondering what kind of experiences people have been having at nail salons since they were allowed to reopen in DC. I’ve gotten my hair cut in recent months but haven’t ventured to a nail salon out of concerns re: ability to social distance and general safety/hygiene.
Are there any DC salons that are doing it right? I’ve had a rough go of it recently and would love to relax with a pedicure but i don’t want to set myself and my family back after being so cautious and risk averse for months.
I’d love to hear what people are seeing out there.”
Alex writes (regarding the photo above): “Wanted to share what Debby Harper salon on 17th street is doing! Outdoor manicures and pedicures! All covid 19 precautions included and then some.”

Back in May we we shared the WBJ story:
“It’s official: Kramerbooks owner Steve Salis says he’s ready to move the hybrid bookshop-cafe out of its Dupont Circle home.”
Thanks to all who sent the Washingtonian update:
“Owner Steve Salis says the move won’t happen any sooner than three years from now, and could be as far off as six years (when the lease ends). So in the meantime, he figures he might as well spruce the whole place up a bit with a new look, new restaurant, and new additions like a flower and barber shop.”
Ok then.
