Kimberley Atkinson Permanent Makeup

A very difficult goodbye 🤍

After 9 incredibly special years, I have made the very difficult decision to not return to doing beauty.

For the past 9 years, I have had the absolute privilege of doing something I loved, building a business from the ground up, and most importantly, getting to know and care for so many wonderful people along the way.

To every single client who has ever walked through my doors — thank you. Thank you for trusting me, supporting my small business, recommending me to your friends and family, and continuing to come back over the years. Thank you for the conversations, the laughs, the tears, the life updates and the friendships that came from those appointments. You have given this business so much more meaning than I could ever put into words.

Some of you have been with me from the very beginning, and I honestly cannot thank you enough for allowing me to be a small part of your lives for so many years.

I started this business when I was only 19 years old, so it is safe to say that life has changed a lot over the past decade. As many of you know, I have been studying for the past couple of years and have reached a point where I feel it is time to close this chapter and put my energy into the next stage of my life with my family and a new career path.

Thank you for being part of my journey. Thank you for believing in me. And thank you for making the last 9 years so incredibly special.

With all my love and gratitude,
Kimberley 🤍
