Mission
Statement
Enjoy a relaxing, personal, serene experience
with a master professional.
Welcome to Karen’s Professional Personal
Services! I’d like to introduce myself and tell you a little about
my business. I have more than 25 years of experience in beauty
services, and I’m dedicated to doing masterful work and keeping
long-term relationships with my clients. I stay current with all the
latest technology and attend the best training offered in the
industry. In addition to being a Cosmetologist, I am a certified
laser technician, certified Medical & Clinical Electrologist,
and California certified permanent cosmetic artist with advance
technique certification. I am also trained in therapeutic massage. I
believe in trying to be the best, thats why I went to California, a
state that has some of the highest requirements in the country. I
have the latest training in laser operation and I am a proud member
of the Better Business Bureau. I am also an active member of
the Society of Clinical and Medical Hair Removal (SCMHR)
as well as the
Electrolysis Society of Florida (ESF). Because I believe in giving back to my community I am also a member of the Chamber of Commerce, BNT, and other women's groups.
I offer personal, unrushed attention with a
professional who listens and provides top-grade services at
reasonable prices. I stand behind my work, and I get it right the
first time! I have
worked my whole career on people of every lifestyle including
dancers, transgender, gay, businessmen and women, teens and the
elderly. I give my respect and best to all the people who need my
skills from head to toe!
