Sola Salons is gearing up to open at Plaza America in Reston later this summer, keeping it on track with the previously reported timeline for its newest location.
“The Reston location will open closer to the end of summer and is corporately owned,” Sola Salons Marketing Director Liz Eggert told FFXnow via email. “The location will also have 63 chairs/salons within the location.”
Founded in 2004, Sola Salon has over 700 locations nationwide, including ones in Tysons, University Mall near George Mason University’s Fairfax campus, and Springfield.
The salon will be located at 11674 Plaza America Drive in the former Gold’s Gym next to CVS. Gold’s Gym moved in January to 11830 Sunrise Valley Drive.
CBRE’s website shows that Plaza America has five retail vacancies, the largest of which is an 11,963-square-foot endcap space on the shopping center’s second floor.
The restaurant Brown Bag closed its location at the shopping center, paving the way for Taïm Mediterranean Kitchen to move in last fall. However, Taim abruptly closed all of its Northern Virginia locations in April, stating that it wanted to focus its efforts on the New York City area where it originated.
The Latin street food chain Maizal opened a new location in Plaza America in November, replacing Zoe’s Kitchen.
