To wrap up our one year anniversary, we would like to make another post saying thank you.
Thank you to all of our supporters, our past and present clients and the people who entered the draw for the giveaway.
Thank you, our KIB whanau is most definitely growing which we love to see.
A huge thank you to our guest artist who came and filled our space with knowledge, inspiration and laughter. It was an absolute honour to have you in our shop.
Thank you to our team, including the barbers, artist and everyone in the cafe for holding it down for KIB.
Last but far from the least, a special thank you to Joel and Kylie.
We appreciate everything you do for us and the shops. Everything you two do doesn’t go unnoticed.
