RVABEAUTYPRO was created to bring valuable knowledge & guidance to beauty professionals.

This magazine is the product of a deep love for the beauty community, and all of the people who bring their unique skills & expertise to the chair.

Founder and Editor-In-Chief of RVABEAUTYPRO, AnnMarie Verdi Wright, has had the pleasure of working in the beauty industry for over a decade. Her experience in working alongside and supporting other beauty professionals inspired her to create this publication.

RVABEAUTYPRO features local beauty professionals from all disciplines — cosmetology, nail artistry, esthetics, permanent makeup, lash extensions, and more — who have knowledge, experience, and stories to share with their peers within the beauty community.

The goal of RVABEAUTYPRO is simple - to create a space in which beauty professionals are able to connect, relate, and feel embraced by the support of their community.

Whether you’re local to Richmond, Virginia, or are making your city beautiful one service at a time, we’d love to welcome you to the RVABEAUTYPRO community. Join us on Instagram @rvabeautypro for the latest updates, stories, and contributor content! <3
