Hi, I’m Rickia Coates, the bubbly, resilient, and sometimes hilarious hands behind Lavish Skin Artistry. I’m a licensed esthetician and full-time wax specialist. I’ve been helping clients feel confident, radiant, and effortlessly polished since 2021.

Clients often tell me they love my personality, my technique, and the results I deliver, but I like to think it’s the whole experience—from the cozy, private studio vibe to leaving with skin that feels as amazing as it looks.

A little about me outside of the studio: I’m a proud Gemini, love roller skating, binge-watching my favorite series, and can’t resist a plate of buffalo wings. Thinking of my next getaway (because even wax queens need a little R&R). And of course, I’m obsessed with all things beauty—because how else would I keep perfecting your smoothest Brazilians and snatched brows?

At Lavish Skin Wax & Brow Studio, every visit is tailored to you, with expert care, a touch of sass, and a little fun along the way. Come see me—I promise, smooth skin is just the beginning.
