Small by design, exceptional by nature. Our team brings together years of experience, a passion for their craft, and a genuine commitment to making every client feel seen and looked after. At Carbon, you’re never just an appointment.

Victoria Cooke

Founder & Creative Director

The vision and heart behind Carbon. With over 22 years in the industry, Victoria has built a reputation grounded in exceptional colour work and a mastery of hair extensions across every technique and texture.

She founded Carbon with a clear belief — that a truly great hair experience should be as beautiful as the result. Her eye for design earned the salon its Hairnews Interior Design Award; her skill and warmth keep clients loyal for years.

Lindy Mahlaba

Blow Bar Technician

With 15 years of experience in the hair industry, Lindy knows exactly what it takes to create hair that makes an entrance.

She specialises in beautiful brush blow drys and bouncy, long-lasting curls, with a real talent for creating volume and movement. Lindy also loves getting creative with upstyles, whether it’s an effortless occasion look or something a little more polished.

With her experience, precision and eye for a great finish, Lindy knows how to create hair that looks just as good walking out of Carbon as it does hours later.

Susan

Blow Bar Technician

With 14 years of experience in the hair industry, Susan is a true specialist when it comes to creating beautiful, long-lasting blow drys.

Known for her speed, efficiency and impeccable attention to detail, she knows how to create a finish that not only looks amazing when you leave the salon, but lasts well beyond the chair.

For Susan, it’s about more than just great hair — it’s about making every woman leave feeling beautiful, confident and ready to take on the day. Her passion for what she does shines through in her bubbly personality and the care she brings to every client.

Campbell Dovale

Junior Stylist

Bubbly, creative and full of personality! One of the newest faces at Carbon and a rising star in the making. With just one year left of her studies, Campbell is already making moves behind the chair!

Now offering her own services at junior stylist rates, she is definitely one to watch!

Dianah Mamabolo

Front of House

Dianah is the warm and welcoming face that greets you at Carbon. She ensures every visit runs seamlessly from the moment you walk in — managing bookings, looking after clients, and making the Carbon experience feel effortless.

Zama Vezi

Nail Technician

Six years in the nail game, and Zama is all about making nails anything but boring.

With a serious talent for acrylics, gel nails and nail art, she loves experimenting with colour, playing with different finishes and creating freehand designs that are completely one of a kind.

Whether you’re after something clean and understated or ready to let your nails do the talking, Zama brings creativity, precision and plenty of personality to every set.

Primrose Makati

Nail Technician

With 21 years of experience as a nail technician, Primrose brings a wealth of knowledge, skill and genuine care to every appointment.

She’s especially known for her exceptional pedicures and her strong hands — whether it’s a relaxing hand or foot massage, she knows exactly how to help you unwind.

Primrose takes pride in keeping nails healthy and well cared for, while her calm, gentle demeanour makes every appointment feel like a little escape. With her, you can sit back, switch off and let yourself be truly pampered.
