Pearl R.
Got a beautiful set of nails! The nail technician was a bit withdrawn and perhaps slightly unfriendly. I understand everyone has bad days but this seems to be a common theme with your nail technicians at all branches it seems…..as I go to different locations everytime, (CBD, Claremont, Rondebosch and now Observatory). Receptionists are always very welcoming and friendly. Kind regards Thank you

So blown away by the great service I received here!! All the girls took such interest in helping me with everything from my hair extensions and best method of reinstalling them, to my nails and pedicure with the best foot massage I've ever had. Wish I could find a great salon like this everywhere I travel to!

What an amazing experience! The place, the hospitality, the service is nothing short of amazing - even in loadshedding,,, Honestly one of the best experiences I have had getting my nails done. They treat you with care and kindness - you don't just feel like another number/customer. Loved getting my acrylic nails done and look forward to using them as my one-stop shop for all my beauty needs.

Acrylic Nails FAQs
Book your next acrylic nails appointment in Observatory with Fresha
Fresha is the best way to book your next beauty, nails and wellness appointment. We’ve collated and checked the best nail salons in Observatory, so you don’t have to. Streamlined, convenient and simple to use, Fresha is the number one beauty and wellness platform worldwide. Just search your area, pick your appointment, and enjoy your treatment. It’s as simple as that.
For knockout nails, it’s got to be acrylics. They can give you the length and shape you’ve always dreamt of. Choose to paint them dramatic colours for maximum impact, or ask your nail technician to make them look natural. Acrylic nails are super strong and hard wearing, so they should last for 2 to 3 weeks. They won’t crack and splinter as natural nails might, so they’re a great option if your nails are prone to weakness. Acrylic nails take around 1 hour and 30 minutes in Observatory, and cost between ZAR 100 and ZAR 500.
If you still need another reason to book with Fresha, we can give you one. In fact, we can give you 1 billion reasons. That’s the number of successful appointments we’ve booked for customers around the world. We’re not only active in Observatory or in South Africa. We’re active in 120 different countries around the globe. That’s why if you haven’t come across a businesses using our free program yet, we’re certain you will soon. So next time you jet off abroad, open up the Fresha website or app for an overseas wellness win. And we always love hearing from our app users, so don’t hesitate to drop us a line at hello@fresha.com, if you need anything at all.
