Beauty Bar by Kristina Ruggerio began in 2019 as a small family-owned business with a single makeup chair. Kristina Ruggerio, a professional makeup artist who has worked in the beauty industry since 2008, founded it, and it now offers hair, skin, nail, bridal and permanent makeup services under one roof. According to the business, it has won Best of DE Upstate awards for makeup application, women's cuts, hair extensions, men's cuts and its med spa, and it describes itself as award-winning and as Delaware's best med spa.
Bridal work is a major part of the business, which calls its bridal team Delaware's top-rated on-site team and says it works on more than 250 weddings a year. Services include hair and makeup for brides, bridesmaids, flower girls, wedding guests and the day of the wedding, with trial sessions available beforehand. Every bride receives a complimentary custom facial, which must be redeemed within 30 days, and free hair consultations. A bridal trial is recommended two to three months before the wedding. The team will travel to the wedding location for a fee based on distance, and an in-house wedding coordinator is available. Deposits are paid through HoneyBook and applied to the final invoice, while trials are billed separately; the final balance is billed through HoneyBook 30 days before the wedding.
The med spa is led by a Medical Director and a Physician Assistant. Its menu covers aesthetic injections, including Botox, Xeomin, Juvederm dermal filler, Radiesse and PRFM-Gel biostimulators, and laser and energy treatments. Morpheus8 RF combines microneedling with radiofrequency to tighten skin and improve texture, Diolaze uses diode laser technology with a built-in cooling system for hair removal, and Lumecca IPL is described as treating pigmentation, sun damage and redness. Microneedling with radiofrequency and Apex Pro microneedling, which uses plant-derived PDRN, are also offered, along with HydraFacial, chemical peels, dermaplaning, face or body fat reduction and skin tightening, medical grade skincare routines and permanent makeup for brows or lips. Some injectable treatments may be HSA or FSA eligible for medical reasons, depending on the plan.
The day spa and hair menus cover facials from a skin consultation through Easy Glow, teen, BBKR Signature and Bacial options, HydraFacial in Signature, Deluxe and Platinum levels, massage including Swedish, hot stone, reflexology, prenatal and couples massage, kinesio taping, brow and lash services, and waxing. Hair services include cuts for men, women and children, color and blonding, perms, keratin and Brazilian blowout treatments, extensions, tinsel, and updos. Nails include manicures, pedicures, gel and builder gel, and acrylic, Gel-X and polygel enhancements with nail art. The business carries Aveda, Redken and Goldwell hair products and offers SkinBetter skincare in the med spa.
