Lady Du is venturing into the beauty business and its one she hopes will revive the kasi economy. 

She took to her Instagram timeline to say this has always been her dream and now she is ready for the venue to have staff and start functioning. 

“I don’t think you guys know all the things I studied, beauty being one of them. After school I studied beauty, travelled the world working on a cruise ship [and] my biggest dream was to own a salon. Music captured me, I focused on it, but now that I can do both, I took my savings, bought a house in the hood so I don’t have to pay rent. I wanted to bring the Sandton experience back to the hood.”

She also revealed that she was qualified for the beauty business. 

“I literally have been working sooo hard on it, still am. If you are from KwaThema or around kindly send your CV to WAwalabeauty@gmail.com. I am fully qualified in this as you can see my diplomas in all departments, some diplomas are for something else! But all qualifications are there. Here’s to franchising in the hood, empowering the community [and] taking the money back to ekasi. My legacy starts now.”

 In August she shared the logo of Lady Du Entertainment, saying  it will only focus on girls who want to make it big in the industry because it has matured.

“My company turns 10 years next year, because it will be fully matured I will be working and developing girls only. I feel like females go through so much, I won’t be signing people. I don’t believe in giving people fish, I buy equipment for them to fish. Right now I’m building as much as I can to make sure they don’t have to look anywhere for sponsorship unless it’s brands for a party! We don’t sign to labels! We are the labels,” she wrote
