About Us

Our mission is simple, we want you to KNOW you are the richest beyouty (pronounced byoo·tee).

What we mean very simply is that no matter where a woman is in her life, we want her to know her worth. We want her to see her beauty. To know that who she is on the inside is more than enough. It will radiate on the outside. Our mission when a woman leaves Opulent BeYouty is that she not only looks good but feels good about herself.

“When your hair looks good you just feel better.”

– MARKENA TILLMAN

 

Markena loves meeting new people. As a result, she has developed deep friendships with her clients. She believes that the character and integrity of the stylist are critical because it will show in the work that is produced.

Her passion for her clients would be evident if you ever eavesdropped on her conversations. Clients have shared their lives with her for over 30 years.  The stylist chair creates connection better than almost anything.

Her passion for helping women has always been evident, but after going through a painful divorce several years ago and having to rebuild her confidence and her sense of self, Markena knows how important it is to empower other women.

“I felt a bit lost for a while. I didn’t want to get dressed up or even bother with doing my hair and makeup. It was a very painful time for me. But slowly and surely a new Markena emerged. One with new wisdom and confidence. I realized that my mission was to continue to use my gifts to empower other women who needed to know their worth and beauty. I wanted to create an environment where a woman could look in the mirror and reflect back is how amazing and wonderful she is.”
