In a city where everyone seems to be moving at a hundred miles an hour, finding a moment of calm can feel like a luxury. At Luxie Spa, tucked into the heart of Capitol Hill, that luxury is intentional.
Luxie Spa has become one of D.C.’s most talked-about destinations for those who want more than a routine beauty appointment. Combining high-end technique with a personalized touch — creates an experience that feels both indulgent and deeply restorative.

Thanks to M. for sending in another disguised Tesla:
“If it were a real BYD, it would charge faster, cost less, have higher quality, and have much better features.”
Ed. Note: Had to google BYD, CNN reported last week:
“BYD, the Shenzhen-based Chinese EV champion, eclipsed Tesla in annual sales last year.
…BYD is starting to expand globally, with notable exceptions like the United States, a country it is effectively barred from due to 100% tariffs on its passenger cars.”
