Our story

Built by artists who got tired of rushed appointments.

Next Level Beauty started in 2016 as a single makeup chair in a shared studio. Today we are a full beauty studio in Addis Ababa — facial treatment, ombre brows, makeup, wax, eyelash extensions and nails — still run on the same rule: no client leaves until the finish is right.

Tigest Getachew

Founder of Next Level Beauty

Tigest Getachew is the founder of Next Level Beauty and the person behind every detail of the studio — from the skin you walk in with to the finish you leave with. She built Next Level Beauty around one idea: beauty work should be careful, personal and never rushed. Facial, ombre brows, makeup, wax, eyelash extensions and nails are each done with real technique, original products and clean, hygiene-checked equipment. Every client is heard before anything is touched. That is the magic of the studio: results that look like you, only next level.

What we stand for

Three things we won't compromise on.

✦

Precision

Every service follows a real technique, not a shortcut — from foundation matching to cuticle work.

✦

Listening first

We ask before we touch a brush or a file. Your reference photo, your skin, your comfort — that's the brief.

✦

Clean & original

Medically hygiene-checked equipment, original products only, and the same quality whether it's your first visit or your fiftieth.
