About Us

Hi, I'm Kayla

 

I'm the heart behind Me2You Nails.

 

Creating beautiful nails has become so much more than a career for me—it's an opportunity to help people feel confident, relaxed and cared for. Every appointment is about more than beautiful nails; it's about creating an experience you'll look forward to every time you visit.

My Journey

 

The nail industry wasn't part of my original plan. After finishing school and studying Tourism, I completed my practical training at Cape Town International Airport. Then COVID-19 changed everything.

 

What began as an unexpected opportunity soon became a passion, and today I can't imagine doing anything else.

 

As a largely self-taught nail technician, I've invested countless hours into education, practice and refining my skills. From classic gel manicures to detailed nail art, I believe beautiful results come from patience, consistency and attention to detail.

How Me2You Nails Began

 

The name Me2You Nails reflects how the business started.

 

In 2018 I travelled to clients' homes, bringing professional nail services directly to them. As the business grew, I realised I wanted to create something even more personal—a dedicated space where every client could feel relaxed, welcome and completely looked after.

 

In 2020 I opened my first salon, officially registered Me2You Nails, and began building the business I had always envisioned.

Growing Together

 

Since then, Me2You Nails has continued to grow.

 

  • 2021 – Welcomed Kayla O'Connor to the team.

  • 2024 – Helga van Zyl joined the salon.

  • 2025 – Returned from maternity leave after welcoming my son, Nicholas.

  • 2026 – Moved into our own dedicated salon premises, creating the professional and welcoming environment our clients enjoy today.

 

Every milestone has been made possible by the incredible support of our clients, and I'm grateful for every person who has been part of the journey.

What You Can Expect

 

When you visit Me2You Nails, you can expect more than a nail appointment

 

.You'll receive:

  • Professional advice tailored to your nails.

  • Honest recommendations.

  • High-quality products.

  • Strict hygiene standards.

  • A welcoming, relaxed atmosphere.

  • Beautiful nails created with care and attention to detail.

 

My goal is simple—to ensure every client leaves feeling more confident than when they arrived.
