About

Beauty Ascending is owned by Brandy Lukyanov, a licensed cosmetologist whose beauty career began in 2002, when she created hair and makeup for professional photoshoots with an international photography company. The studio's aim is to bring out each client's natural beauty through personal attention and skilled technique.

Visits are by appointment only, and the studio is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM, closed Sunday and Monday. Consultations are free: 15 minutes for general services, 20 minutes for hair extensions and for makeup. Gift cards can be purchased on the booking page.

Signature Experiences are multi-step appointments that combine hair care, color and styling. They run from a 60-minute glow service up to the Beauty Reset, a full transformation that can include foilyage or balayage, root work, gloss or toner, a cut and a style. First-time guests booking the Beauty Reset need to have a consultation beforehand.

The studio works with Wella, Goldwell and Davines, and sells Crown Revival Oil at $38.00 on the website. It describes its products as premium and high-quality.

Every service is personalized to the individual client, and relaxation and restorative self-care can be built in for guests who want a more holistic visit.

A private space where every visit is by appointment only.
