Hi, my name is Judy and I’m the owner of Smooth Effects Kamloops.

Hi, my name is Judy and I’m the owner of Smooth Effects Kamloops.

I moved from Prince George to Kamloops in 2013. My husband and I have 4 children so we have an extremely busy home life, and we also enjoy camping and traveling as a family. Once my children were a little older, I started to look for a business opportunity that would allow me to balance my busy lifestyle, while still providing a solid income. In March of 2016, I purchased the Smooth Effects franchise in Kamloops. Having a strong background in business and a love for aesthetics, I found Smooth Effects to be the perfect fit.

My aspiration is to help clients achieve their desired skin goals while maintaining the highest standard in confidentiality and client care. With the help of my fabulous team of laser technicians and skin care experts; together we will ensure you have a great experience in our professional, clean, and comfortable atmosphere.

Smooth Effects Kelowna

Kelsey Agar

Hi, my name is Kelsey and I am the owner of Smooth Effects Kelowna.

I absolutely love being a part of the Smooth Effects team. After receiving my Certification in Advanced Dermal Skin Care and Laser Technologies in February of 2014, I immediately started working as a full time laser technician in the lower mainland. With the desire to get back to my hometown in the Okanagan, I started my career with Smooth Effects as an employee at the Smooth Effects Kamloops franchise in October of 2014 and then transferred to Smooth Effects Vernon in January of 2015. In May of 2017 I purchased the Smooth Effects Kelowna franchise. I have always had the desire to own and operate my own laser clinic and Smooth Effects gave me that! I love being a part of a franchise with such a strong support network of like-minded businesswomen to support me in excelling at running my business smoothly.

My goal is to bring my wealth of laser knowledge and expertise in skin care to the beautiful city of Kelowna. I pride myself on taking a results orientated approach with my clients to ensure they are receiving the best possible care before, during, and after their treatment. I hope to inspire clients, with the help of my wonderful team, by continuing to grow and learn in this forever changing and evolving industry.

When I am not in the clinic I enjoy spending my spare time taking road trips, camping and hiking with my husband. I also spend much of my spare time doing photography. Having a fine eye for detail not only helps me in my photography but in the clinic as well.

Feel free to connect with me via email kelowna@smootheffects.ca or phone 250-860-0005.

Smooth Effects Penticton

Bethany Armstrong

Hi, my name is Bethany and I’m the owner of Smooth Effects Penticton.

I started my road of being an entrepreneur in 2006 when I started my wedding coordinating business, Peace of Mind Weddings. What a ride it has been over the years getting to meet the most amazing couples.

I added the Okanagan Bridal Expo Coordination in 2011 to my life and it has been such an excitement and thrill! I am always amazed at what the Okanagan Valley has to offer for services and talent!

And in 2012 my brother and I took over Freedom Body Piercing and Tattoo from our dad who had retired.

In 2018 after some hard work and training I opened up my very own franchise in Penticton, BC. Wow, has this ever been a blast!!! Working with the top in the industry is always something I work for and believe in to give the absolute best service we can offer. I found my true passion!! And this job is the most gratifying and satisfying seeing all the results and life changes it has made. It was getting the service done on myself that had me obsessed with it, and I figured if I’m going to do it I’m going to do it with the best company I can work with.

I have been so lucky to bring on a partner for Peace of Mind Weddings and the Okanagan Bridal Expo, who will be able to take the reigns and keep it going strong and still give the best service we have made our name for. My brother has been so great to take on the full reigns as I stepped aside from Freedom to focus on my new adventure.

I stay very busy with my businesses and my daughter by my side. I smile everyday when I wake up knowing how wonderful my life is and how I am so lucky to have everyone I know working with me and around me. The Okanagan Valley will always be my home; I’m so in love with it. Penticton has welcomed me with open arms and everyone is so warm and friendly. I’m excited to share my new found love and expertise with all my present and future clients.
