Papillion, NE (October 2025) — BeautyFirst, Nebraska’s locally owned beauty store and

store continues that tradition by bringing a warm, personal shopping experience centered
on confidence, care, and community to Sarpy County.

“BeautyFirst has always been about more than great products; it’s about people,” said
