Daniel Shatty Mashego and I

As the year draws to a close, it’s time for some reflection…

Studio MoMa Beauty Salon Review

Posted on by

But this is the case with the newly opened luxury beauty salon called Studio MoMa. It is situated in the BDO Building in Parktown, Johannesburg. I was treated to a manicure and a chance to see what else the nail bar, soon to be full salon, had up its sleeve.
