About Us
Work with me
Blu Gel opened it’s doors on the 1st of March 1999 by owners Shantal Benecke & Stephen Pretorius. Blu Gel has grown day by day, year by year. We recently celebrated our 25 years in business in the same location. With ample off street parking & 500m away from the busy N3 and on a very busy road.
Through years of hard work and being consistent in our service to clients, we have built a cliental base that stretch far & wide, in their location, hair needs and demands.
We are a training salon, meaning we do our own inhouse training of staff & have trained many a stylist to become a trade tested qualified Stylist. This allowing them to achieve their own goals, be it staying at the salon, starting their own business, leaving for a different town or country, working on cruise liners, TV work, what ever direction they want to take in their career.
