Nancy Sibanda is the founder and principal of Professional Beauticians Academy and the founder of Nancy’s Skin Solutions. She is an internationally qualified Somatologist and Skin Specialist with approximately 15 years of professional experience across South Africa, cruise ships and the Middle East.
Working with diverse clients and in varied professional environments has given her hands-on skin and beauty expertise alongside a practical understanding of the commercial realities of the industry.
Her qualifications include CIDESCO, ITEC and City & Guilds. She created PBA to pass practical industry knowledge on to therapists and beauty business owners through education and continuous professional development grounded in ethical practice and client-centred service.
It is equally suited to qualified professionals returning to the industry after time away, who want to refresh their knowledge, rebuild confidence and reconnect with current professional practice.
The academy is run personally, and students deal with Nancy directly — from the first enrolment enquiry through to the certificate being issued.
