The event provided guests with the CHELSEA experience where they were transported for a night out in New York and very much in keeping with how the salon transports one the Big Apple by providing clean, modern and unique facilities.
Guests also had the opportunity to be treated to luxurious pedicure treatments by the salon’s highly trained therapists.
CHELSEA, the no appointment nail, beauty and grooming salon is part of the same family of brands as SOHO, which has branches in Johannesburg and Cape Town.
SOHO is the brainchild of entrepreneur Getty Gizaw who began her career 10 years ago in New York. “In the quest to achieve the authentic look and feel of the vibey New York suburb after which is named, we considered every detail at CHELSEA,” Gizaw said.
The décor includes the state of the art manicure tables, pedicure chairs and waxing rooms. The slick salon is also Wi-Fi equipped for free guest use, stays open late and keeps a composite profile on guests so that they can always look forward to a friendly face who knows just exactly what they want and need. “We want to redefine what a salon experience is and are proud to have brought this to the heart of Gaborone,” Gizaw added.
CHELSEA offers express manicure, pedicure, waxing, and threading and massage services.
Treatments are designed for the busy man or woman on the go and even cater for children. Appointments are not accepted at the salon.
Further stamping the NYC ethos, the salon is a walk in first come first serve experience. If guests are not able to come to the store, CHELSEA mobile services travel to them where services such as manicures, pedicures and massages are provided.
CHELSEA franchisee Dr. Tasneem Mitha said since they opened their doors the response has been overwhelming.
“This is not simply another spa experience, but a concept built on the luxury nail salons of London, New York and LA. Our salon caters for the busy, working professionals who don’t have a lot of time to spend on grooming, but still want exceptional service and results,” she concluded.
