Blown Away

Bowie Salon and Spa Blow-Dry Clinics

From gossiping while in downward dog to coordinating happy hour via IM during conference calls, you’ve got multitasking down pat.

So what’s with the meltdown when it comes to the simple task of blow-drying your hair?

Time to straighten up and fly right — at Bowie Salon and Spa’s seasonal blowout clinics, where you’ll learn the step-by-step process of pulling even the most unruly locks Jennifer Aniston-straight.

Start with wine, cheese, and crackers in the Capitol Hill oasis, followed by a tingly scalp treatment. Then, using your own tools, learn how to hold the brush, where to direct the air, and how to avoid typical frizz-inducing screw-ups.

Sound a little silly? Sure, but it’s totally free (call it a public service). And you’re guaranteed to walk away with a straighter, sleeker ’do.

Which is just the kind of thing you can manage.

The next clinic is Wednesday, March 28. By appointment only. Bowie Salon and Spa, 1507 Belmont Avenue, between Pike and Pine Streets (206-568-3300 or bowiesalonandspa.com).
