Dear Kimarie:

I just got home from getting my extensions done and I can barely contain my happiness. I’ve already called my mom, best friends, lover. I was tempted to let my cab driver run his hands through it, but he was driving and all….

I never thought my hair could look or feel like this. I have struggled for the past several years with thinning, fine hair. It is completely debilitating to be a woman in your 30’s losing your hair. Unless you’ve had to deal with it, you’ll never understand. Being afraid to go out to a party, spending hours in front of a mirror praying that hair spray keeps those few strands covering that thinning spot. Constantly being embarrassed and afraid. Always making sure you sit against the wall, without a mirror behind you, always letting people go first up the stairs or through the door so nobody’s staring at the back of my head. It’s awful.

And then I got glue extensions. They really should be outlawed. It’s a terrible process, it looks bad, feels bad, it’s just bad.

That’s why I was so thrilled to hear about you! Thanks to you I finally have hair I can relax with, play with, put in a ponytail, and all the while not destroy my own growing hair. Which is another reason I owe you tremendous thanks – for introducing me to Thymus pills and the Thymuskin shampoo. I’ve only used the shampoo for three weeks, and the pills for two, but already I’m growing new hair at my temples and on top, and my hair feels fuller and stronger already. I cannot believe the difference in such a short time.

You’ve really helped me, Kimarie. And it was a blast talking to you tonight as well! Your entire staff has been amazing and I really appreciate the kindness. As I told you, my last experience was horrible from top to bottom. But you and your hair fairies really understand how hard losing your hair is to a woman, and you go out of your way to make us feel normal, and excited for our new lives. It feels amazing.

Again, thank you for everything! And have a great time on “The Majority Report” with Janeane – she’s the best political pundit on air. Anywhere.

Take care,

Dear Kimarie -

I was going through a difficult time when you were here and during my appointment - your advice really helped me out. Your outlook on life and your thought process helped me make a very difficult decision that night. Kimarie--you bring such a positive energy to life and just by having the opportunity to be in your life for a few hours every couple of months inspires me and touches me so deeply. Every time I leave my appointment, I feel renewed and alive and
so beautiful and you know what... it has NOTHING to do with the hair. It is about who you are and what you give to me and others. I can talk to you for a couple of hours and have my outlook on life change in that time, always in a positive way. You have lifted me up so many times, I wish you knew what
an impact your spirit has on me.


 

Hello Kimarie!

I just wanted to send you a quick note to say that you guys are awesome! I LOVE MY HAIR!!! I can't even begin to tell you how a little hair has transformed me virtually overnight. I feel so much more confident, beautiful and inspired to improve myself in other areas. (For as much as I absolutely adore my child, not since his birth have I felt remotely good about myself). I have even dug through my closet and pulled out more flattering attire--something I guess I didn't feel worthy of wearing before--so a whole new me is flourishing! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!

And by the way, everyone loves the hair--compliments left and right! A friend who was trying to dissuade from going through with the process for fear it would look fake and ruin my hair even told me it looks awesome--by far the best job she's ever seen--and went as far as to say how "freaky" it is that the hair blends in perfectly, down to the texture. A total compliment to you and what you do.

Thank you sooooo much! Worth every penny and more!

See you soon!

Dear Kimarie, David and of course, the Hairfairies,

I am so sorry that I have not written sooner! I wanted to send a note right away, but my son was in an auto accident, wasn't wearing his seatbelt, and was flown from the drivers seat through the windshield on the passengers side. Needless to say, it's been a slow recovery process. His head was scalped of most of his hair. As a joke, I told him, "Well, if it doesn't grow back, I can always take you to Kimarie and she'll fix you right up. I had to find some sort of humor in this whole ordeal. It's the first time I saw him smile in awhile.

Anyway....on to my "hair". I absolutely love it, love it, love it. I can not tell you the difference it has made in my self confidence. WOW! I really do feel and look younger. I have even had younger guys stop and stare and I am going to be 41 in 2 weeks. My hair feels beautiful. I have gotten so use to it, I don't even believe it's locked in, it just feels like my hair. Everyone loves it. I also went straight over to my hair stylists' to show her and she could not believe how awesome it looks and that she could hardly find the locks. It has inspired her to take your class.

A really good thing is that my own hair does not seem to be shedding as it did before. I use to brush or run my fingers through my hair and would have a "hand full". Not anymore, I barely have had any shedding what so ever. I have religiously taken my Biotin and use the Nioxin products. Oh, yes and of course that wonderful "BB Prep". I will never be caught without my BB Prep. My silk pillow case is like heaven to sleep on. I've had silk pillow cases before and none have ever been as nice as yours.

You are a wonderful person, genuine and caring. I am honored to have had you personally do my locks. Your husband is adorable and the hairfairies are so sweet. I can't wait to see your new studio next time I come.

Take care and hope to see all of you soon.

Hi Eryn,
I loooove my new hair. It is amazing how different it feels/looks by simply changing the texture. It dries super fast and it is extra shiny. I think the shine, in part, has to do with the blow dryer Kimarie recommended (T3 Ionic). She truly is an artist. I would trust her with just about anything that she recommended. She has turned me into a true believer! I feel as though I have undergone a transformation - even more so then when I initially had my extensions installed. My locks are virtually non-existent. Now, when I pull my hair up I do not even consider whether my locks are showing. Please extend my gratitude to Dave, Kimarie and all of the hair fairies for their herculean efforts to ensure my hair arrived by the date of my appointment.

Between my new hair and my spirit, I left the salon feeling like a new lady. You guys rule! I truly feel blessed to have found a salon who has helped me to feel better on the inside and outside.

Eryn, I also wanted to personally thank you for always handling my freak outs with grace and humor. You are a gem!

Many thanks,
Tanya Popp


Hi Kimarie, Dave, and Eryn!!

It's really fun!!

Kimarie -

Wow the pictures are great!! We had such a fun time that night. Whenever I talk about it with the boys a huge smile comes across their faces. One thing for sure they were left with great memories.
As for me, well from the moment I made the connection with Kimarie a little less then a year ago, I have been definitely touched by her fairy magic and I am addicted and can’t get enough. From the first jewel to the amazing locs, Kimarie transformed me and my life. I am filled with anticipation every time I schedule a meeting. I will drop everything to get a dose of Kimarie. I never imagined that you could feel this way about a stylist but Kimarie is not your average stylist she has a gift and an amazing one at that! I will always be under her fairy spell and that’s fine with me. What better spell to be under then the one that makes you smile and feel beautiful on the inside and out.
As for the unforgettable night on Broadway, Going backstage brought back such great memories. I loved every moment .Thank you so much for letting me be part of such a special evening for you. I really love you guys!!

Your friend always,
Marcie

Dear Kimarie, Dave & Staff,

I found IBK by chance searching the internet one day and I must say it was the BEST thing that has ever happened to me. For years I have dealt with thinning hair…….along with the thinning hair came the thinning of my self esteem and self image. I have been to many doctors, tried every product on the market and no results. I would look at pictures in magazines and see people on tv and wish I could have long full hair. Kimarie made my wish come true, she is a true angel. She has changed my life tremendously!!!

I now have a full head of long thick brunette curls. And in regards to my own hair it is growing in and getting fuller, thanks to Kimarie and her knowledge. Kimarie advised me to change my shampoo/conditioner and suggested I start taking Biotin daily………..I cannot even begin to tell you the dramatic results and changes that those small suggestions and bit of advice did for me and my hair.

I am a totally new person now, not only on the outside but on the inside as well and I owe it all to Kimarie! I receive compliments on a daily basis in regards to my hair, not only by women but by men as well………..they rave about how beautiful my long full thick curls are.

There are no words to describe how I feel and how much my hair has changed my life. A big thank you to Kimarie, IBK and staff, I would not know what to do without you!!

Hugs & Kisses from a very satisfied client!
