Entrepreneur Nicolene Pelster, franchisor of NuSkinnovation Aesthetic Clinics, had a vision to bring luxury nail services to the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town. She joined forces with her sister, Andorette Esterhuyse. Together they welcomed Kikuta Buana Rouzina, a highly skilled nail technician with more than five years’ experience in the nail industry, as their head nail technician. This dynamic trio provides clients with an unforgettable experience, making sure they leave with beautiful nails.

“We are all about comfort, relaxation, quality and service. The salon boasts two separate units with individual entrances, ensuring a private and exclusive experience,” says Nicolene.

The nail bar concept is a first in South Africa, providing a sleek and modern space for clients to relax and unwind.

“We are proud and excited to only use NSI, a renowned International premium Nail product range. A trusted brand in the international nail industry,” Nicolene adds. “We are offering a large range of colours, including many HEMA-free options.”

Our state-of-the-art equipment ensures you receive the best possible service, from basic manicures and pedicures to gel applications, acrylics and many nail art designs.

At NuNails, every client is treated like royalty. The nail bar features an interesting layout, where they’ll feel like kings and queens on their throne. The team provides exceptional service, ensuring the client leaves feeling pampered, indulged and beautiful.

“We look forward to meeting all our loyal and new clients in our beautiful space,” Nicolene said.
