You’re sure to find somewhere fabulous.
Jade Nail Bar - Hurlingham
for the best Gelish Pedi
Why HLM loves them: This beautiful intimate salon is a major surprise, in all the best ways. Female owned and a small local business, we just had to give it a try and we are so glad we did. Firstly the space is stunning with an emerald green colour palette, forestry, vines, deep botanical wallpaper and all things green, the design is so luxe. Secondly their prices cannot be beaten. They are ridiculously affordable and Sivu and Gogo will ensure you leave with twinkle toes and a smile on your face. Yip, they’ve nailed it!
#HelloRecommends: A gel pedicure with a luxe pedi massage. The Gel pedi is only R320 which includes cuticle grooming, buff, shine, soak, scrub and massage. Or if you prefer book their Gel hands and Feet Combo at R350 or if you only have a lunch break book an express mani for R120.
Sorbet Man - Rosebank Mall
for the greatest groomed beard
Why HLM loves them: Well because this is the ultimate male grooming experience. Beards are so on trend right now and to ensure yours is in tip top shape, Sorbet has got you covered, from waxing to threading to a beard line up, they offer it as well as sell the best grooming products and a wide range of balms, oils and soaps.

Sorbet Dry bar Dunkeld West
for the most beautiful nails
Why HLM loves them: This is your one stop beauty shop. Not only do they offer marvelous manis, they also offer pedis, acrylic, lashes, make-up, brows, hair extensions, braids and blow dries. We love the convenience and consistency of the Sorbet Dry Bars and also how quick and efficient the treatments are, plus you can have a mani, a pedi and a blow dry simultaneously.Now we all know life is too short to have naked nails, so spark that creativity and doll them up, add some nail art, a glitter bomb or even a matte look. Whatever you require Sorbet satisfies all demands.
#HelloRecommends: A gel polish for R310 and paint on nail art at R30 per nail and if you need a soak off it will be R60 extra.
The DaVinci Spa - Sandton
for the finest facial and massage
Why HLM loves them: This spa encapsulates luxury and innovation, offering only the finest brands and the highest quality treatments that yield powerful results. There is reason the Legacy brand has stood the test of time and DaVinci Spa is no different.
Each treatment is selected based on its ability to deliver, de stress, and re balance the mind and body. The best news is post treatment you can unwind in the relaxation lounge with a cup of herbal tea in the Jacuzzi pod. Hello heaven is that you?
#HelloRecommends: A full body hot stone massage R850 and no 60 minutes is just not enough so try book an extra 30 and add a QMS Collagen facial R1550, which ensures instant results. The skin is plumper, brighter and you’ll leave glowing. This facial is phenomenal and effectively restores the life back into your skin.
