More Than a Hair Studio:
A High-End Experience for Every Hair Journey
Welcome to The Chic Studio, Richmond’s trusted destination for healthy hair solutions and confidence restoration. We specialize in custom medical wigs (cranial prosthetics), protective hairstyling, and personalized care for women navigating hair loss due to medical conditions or seeking styling that honors their texture and identity.
Created From Experience. Built With Heart. Guided By Faith.
The Chic Studio began as a dream, born from my own personal experience with medical hair loss—but it was also divinely revealed through the clients God sent my way. Long before I understood my calling, women experiencing hair loss were naturally drawn to my chair. They came not just for hairstyles, but for comfort, for care, and for someone who truly understood.
From Purpose to Profession.
It was in those moments I realized The Chic Studio was never just about wigs—it was about healing, identity, and confidence.
Today, this space honors that calling by offering a high-end experience for every hair journey—whether you’re here for a custom medical wig, protective style, or just a moment of feeling seen and celebrated.
