Killarney

<h3>If you enjoy what you do, sure it&#8217;s not work at all &#8211; and that has been the case for Katie Hickey who has been in business locally for two decades.</h3>
 For the past 20 years Katie has been successfully running Sheer Beauty which is now located at 1 Hogans Lane (Hillary&rsquo;s Lane).    She said that it was a milestone she felt she may not reach on more than one occasion after coming through a pandemic, a recession, a re-location, and three maternity leaves.
 However, she said that the loyalty of her clients over the years have given her great encouragement.
 &#8220;Sincere thanks to my clients past and present who, without doubt, have been the reason I kept going,&#8221; Katie said.
 Originally located in Fleming&#8217;s Lane for 19 years, Katie then re-located her business to Hogan&rsquo;s Lane in Norma&rsquo;s Flair for Hair.
 &#8220;The beauty industry has evolved so drastically over the past 20 years. For me it is keeping things simple and enjoyable. Realising a client&rsquo;s needs may not be the treatment itself but the time you give to them. Through the years you get to know your clients so well and some beautiful friendships have developed. I hope my clients have gained from me what I have from them. I have so many people I would like to thank and I will personally, but without doubt my husband Andrew and my family, 20 years in business would not have been achieved.
 &#8220;  She has remained loyal to the brands she has carried over the years including Lycon Waxing, Aviva Tanning, Shellac and Jessica Manicure and Pedicure.
 &#8220;I was also delighted to bring on board the fabulous facial range that is Killarney Organic. Killarney has been incredibly kind to me. I&rsquo;m so proud to be part of such a wonderful community. If the past 19 months have proved anything for business it is together we are stronger.&#8221;
