Where every appointment is tailored to your hair’s personality

I’ve been rocking these curls since day one, and let me tell you, it’s been a journey. Growing up with naturally curly hair wasn’t always easy, but I eventually learned to love and embrace the wild, curly chaos that is my hair! So, when I was given this hair review, of course, the first thing I did was research the pros and cons of hair Botox for my hair type.

As Amy and I walked into Miss May’s salon, we were instantly wowed by the cutest light pink chairs that set a fun, but luxurious vibe. Miss May herself sat down with us for a personal consultation, digging deep into our hair goals, what we love about our current style, and what we wanted to achieve.
Amy chose a more natural, lived-in look. May began by applying a professional bleach mix to her hair, carefully monitoring the process to lift her colour just right for the desired shade. I opted for a hair Botox treatment to tame my stubborn frizz and add serious shine. While we waited for the chemistry to work its magic, May treated us like royalty, serving mimosas and cupcakes.
Nonku, her right-hand woman, started my service with a thorough wash using a clarifying shampoo to strip away all the product build-up in my hair. My hair was then rinsed with cold water to lock in the treatment’s benefits, followed by a professional blow-dry that smoothed the cuticles. May then infused my hair with the Botox treatment, leaving it in a bit longer because my curly texture and existing products needed extra time for full penetration - the treatment sat for a full 20 minutes before being rinsed out. To seal the miracle in, she finished with a careful straightening pass that left the product locked into every strand. After rinsing Amy’s bleach, she applied a precise root toner to perfect her colour balance.

Amy’s finished look turned out flawless, with bouncy curls plus a fresh trim that lifted her whole vibe, and my hair now feels silky, soft, and smooth - the frizz is gone, and the shine is next‑level. We walked out of the salon feeling like brand-new people, literally transformed.
Miss May also runs an exquisite nail studio in the same space. Her decision to move to Ballito and open a smaller, intimate salon is all about giving each client undivided quality time and personalised attention, ensuring every experience feels like a luxurious, self‑care ritual.
