KIM WORKS HER MAGIC WITH A PRECISE HAND AND PHOTOGRAPHER’S EYE
Kim Balaskas is an angel personified! She runs her permanent makeup business from a pristine and serene first-floor clinic in a chic boutique part of Westbourne, near Bournemouth in Dorset.
From experience, Kim is one of the kindest, and most understanding people we have had the pleasure to meet. She has a special way of making one feel confident
and relaxed – sometimes from the most insecure of standpoints. She can rationalise, explain and encourage the right decisions from her clients, and these are important decisions that will impact and affect their confidence and their lives.
Whilst modest in her way, there is no doubt that Kim
is the best in the business of permanent makeup. She works her magic with a precise hand and the focus of
a photographer’s eye. Kim can enhance looks with the most subtle of permanent makeup on the eyebrows. She uses several enhancement techniques including hyper realism (a soft natural look that blends with the eyebrow) and ombre, powder and combination brows. Then of course there are the eyes, enhanced through eyeliner and shaded eyeliner detail and the lips: with enhanced shape and colour for natural looking lips or a bolder look of permanent lipstick.
Kim also specialises in tiny tattoos – these are unique and tiny designs, with minute detail. She can also reverse other tattoo work or permanent makeup that one may regret, as she does a significant amount of tattoo laser removal too.
But Kim is not only about elective cosmetics, her artistic nature and understanding takes her talent into
clinically humane spheres such as post-surgery 3D areola reconstruction, and the hair stroke and eyeliner techniques are often a life changing confidence booster for those with alopecia or following chemotherapy.
Kim works in her clinic alongside an aesthetics doctor who offers natural anti-wrinkle treatments including dermal fillers, using polynucleotides for under eye rejuvenation.
Kim’s business has achieved its success the best way, organically though the positive word of mouth from her loyal clients, some may say patients.
And as if you didn’t know what is coming next – Kim
is spreading her love and the talent that she has for permanent makeup, as she is a prolific tutor, from technical one-to-ones to advanced groups, her training is nationally recognised.
Kim’s clients are diverse, ranging from young to older and she does much work with the trans community and works on male cosmetics including the increasingly popular ‘guyliner’.
Kim’s work can transform one’s life. She is, simply put and as so many of her clients say, an Angel. She knows when her work is successful, as her customers are visibly moved,
Confidence is a human right and Kim can encourage and provide that in abundance – in that kind and understanding way unique to her. Partner that with her artistic talents, and you have every reason to make an appointment. See Kim during the week or while you are on a break, weekend or holiday for subtle work that will make you feel a million dollars or make an appointment for a consultation to see what is possible.
In Kim’s world – a happy, confident, and new you are everything!
