What customers say

Real reviews from real customers

The Flare Up Garage is such a vibe, got my new helix piercing done so quickly and the team in Randburg is incredibly friendly. It was a super easy and comfortable experience!

Bandile C.

I ordered a custom Bruma journal and some bike spares for my husband's scrambler, and the quality is absolutely top-tier. Highly recommend this multi-service gem.

Khanya T.

Honestly, you won't find better value in Jozi for getting your nails done while listening to their life-changing motivational podcasts. It's my new favorite weekly self-care spot.

Tebogo I.

Popped in for a quick makeup session before an event and ended up buying a stunning Bruma journal too. The talent and energy at this garage are unmatched.
