So today was the day I finally had some of my femininity back and I can’t tell you how amazing it feels after having Alopecia for 7 years that stripped me bare from all my hair, eyebrows etc. I hated looking in the mirror, I’d cry, I’d basically given up on feeling “good” because I’ve never felt “good” in years.

But with a flood full of tears after by us both from the happiness that was given back to me by the most incredible permanent makeup artist Kelly Bate Pmu she truly has made me feel that bit better! She was so professional, corrected me if I was going to dark or to thick, she made sure I was 100% happy and safe. Honestly, I was scared of the pain, the pain didn’t even come to mind with our chats and getting to know each other!

A caring, dedicated, professional, loving and just amazing artist with her work and a beautiful lady inside and out! Believe me when I say she is THE BEST out there I would never go to anyone else. I knew I would cry happy tears I was gob smacked and I hadn’t seen my face with proper eyebrows in years and due to that Kelly cried happy tears with me. She’s worth more than any amount of money could buy and I’m not just saying all of this because I’ve had it done and I’m recommending her because I’ve had it done I’m saying all of this because it’s the truth!

I can’t wait for my 6-week top-up already! And the amount of beautiful comments I’ve had today just says it all my neighbours even cried for me and gave me a massive cuddle because they knew and my family knew how much it meant to me to have this.

So Kelly, all I can say is, I love you and you truly are amazing!

I randomly came across some photos of Kelly’s first few clients and liked what I saw.  I’ve struggled for years to have lovely eyebrows and one of them grew almost half way across my eyebrow arch.  First consultation and Kelly set me at ease straight away.  I let Kelly measure out and put her ideas to me, yes that’s right, I sought the expert’s advice and took it.  I had zero ideas of what I wanted and I went for it.  Believe it or not but everyone has a different skin tone, whether it’s warm or cold colours, Kelly knows her stuff and has never done me wrong every single time.

Over 5 years later Kelly is still doing my eyebrows and I haven’t looked back since! The photos speak for themselves.

I was at my worst when Kelly met me, I had zero confidence and now I’m at my best.

Having to draw my brows on each morning was really starting to become a drag, and I had heard from friends about Kelly. So I checked out some of her work and was really impressed. I decided to go for it and booked an appointment. I wish I had done it years ago as I now have the most amazing brows tailored to suit my face and no more pencilling!!! Kelly handled everything in a friendly and professional manner from the in-depth discussion about shape, colour etc to the treatment itself. I am over the moon with them and feel like a new woman ???? I can’t recommend this lovely lady highly enough. I am in love!! Can’t thank you enough Kelly, you are amazing, they have completely transformed me and I’m over the moon with them! I would recommend Kelly to everyone! Thank you Kelly xxx

After years of over plucking & having to draw my eyebrows in every morning, I got chatting to Kelly about permanent make up and booked in to have them done and I’ve never looked back! Kelly is so lovely & professional & I can’t recommend her highly enough! If you are thinking about it, do it…… You will not regret it!

I have always had a love/hate relationship with my eyebrows and would spend ages every morning trying to draw them on so they’d look even and full! I found Kelly on Facebook and was impressed with her work, I had a consultation where she informed me of how the treatment would work and we discussed what I wanted to gain from it. I wasn’t disappointed when I chose to go a head with having my eyebrows done- they looked AMAZINGGG and I had so many compliments from them. It’s incredible how a pair of eyebrows can really transform your face! Thank you so much Kelly!

I had been looking into having semi-permanent brows done for a while and when I saw Kelly offered this procedure I immediately contacted her. I booked in for a consultation in January 2016, I felt totally at ease and could tell Kelly was a total perfectionist which is essential! Kelly explained everything and I was really pleased with the results! My brows healed well and I’ve never looked back – I have very fair hair and had over plucked my eyebrows over the years so having brows I didn’t need to worry about made such a difference, it’s given me so much more confidence going makeup free. A year on and they are still looking great!

I decided to finally have my eyebrows tattooed after years of drawing them on. Being very conscious of my eyebrows I wanted them to be perfect. Meeting Kelly and having my treatment I was highly impressed with the service, warm welcome and felt very relaxed. My eyebrows are fantastic! I no longer have to worry about drawing them on. I have more confidence and self esteem. I am truly grateful to Kelly
