SUMMER LOVIN’
Give yourself a little TLC this summer at some of our favorite places. By virginia coyne
BLOW IT OUT
Drybar enthusiasts no longer need to trek to Georgetown or Bethesda
for a perfect blowdry. The company is opening two new locations in Dupont Circle and Penn Quarter in late summer. Humidity or not, Drybar stylists can tame your tresses with one of their signature cocktailinspired styles, like the “messy and beachy” Mai Tai. www.thedrybar.com JUICE IT OUT Cleanse thyself with freshly squeezed juices from Puree Juice Bar . With three locations – in Bethesda, Adams Morgan and the Yoga District – it’s easy to pop in for a quick kale shot or a bottle of our personal favorite, the Daily Green ($9), which is chockfull of pineapple, kale, apple, lemon and ginger. Your tummy will feel new again after a night of over-indulging at the neighborhood barbeque. www.pureejuicebar.com

SOOTHE IT OUT Reboot and refresh with the Skin Quench Hydrating Facial ($200) or go more than skin-deep with a dermal filler at the luxurious 40,000-square-foot Sanctuary Cosmetic Center in Tysons Corner. “It has always been my dream to create a beauty oasis where I can make my patients feel beautiful on the inside and out,” says Sanctuary owner and double-board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Soheila Rostami. www.sanctuarycosmeticcenter.com
WORK IT OUT Tighten those abs and work towards Michelle Obama-inspired arms at Solidcore. Yes, the first lady has been spotted here, and yes, owner and chief trainer Anne Mahlum is intense, 50-minute workouts have been rumored to make grown men cry; but seeing some well-earned muscle tone when you slip on that bikini will quickly dry the tears away. Five area locations, including Cathedral Commons. First class, $19. www.solidcore.co
