Lady Du gushes over her 9 to 5 job

Amapiano star Duduzile Ngwenya better known as Lady Du reveals what she does on her 9 to 5 job which she officially launched this year.

Many South Africans know her as just a musician but she does a lot more than making hit songs.

Taking to Instagram, the singer shared a video of herself doing a pedicure for a client.

She revealed that she is a fully qualified beautician and also talked about how she intends to give all her clients a luxury experience at her salon.

“As a fully qualified beautician, I want a high standard salon, I am training my staff myself, I worked on a cruise ship traveling the world working in a spa, the standard isn’t the same as this side, so even though my salon is in the hood I want my customers to experience luxury. Pedicure and facial was one of my favs to do,” she wrote.

“Excuse the ? flu. Yes I’m a musician but this is my 9-5 ??????,” Lady Du concluded.
