Wahu amiably ushers in a client before she notices our presence. After exchanging pleasantries, she gives me a tour of her Afro Siri Salon and Nail Bar business premises.

We are at the Nail Bar that is situated on the first floor of the Krishna Centre in Westlands. As the name suggests, it has a bar-setting, a counter and for this night, a table of cocktails to serve the clients walking in.
