the face behind Esthetics by Kaya
Meet our owner
Born and raised in Virginia, I’ve got roots as deep as my love for a good face mask. I’m determined to travel the world, spreading the beauty of esthetics, and watching my business blossom in every corner of the globe.
When I’m not pampering clients or researching the latest skincare trends, you can find me indulging in my eclectic mix of hobbies. From scouring thrift stores for hidden gems to perfecting my grandmother's cookie recipe, I’m always up for an adventure. And let’s not forget my love for barre classes—because what’s better than a glowing complexion paired with a strong core?
Bringing Beauty To Life
Meet Kaya, Your Esthetician Extraordinaire!
With a license from Virginia’s department of regulations (DPOR) in hand, and armed with expertise from the esteemed Chrysm Institute of Esthetics, I’m Kaya—the proud owner of Esthetics by Kaya. Ever passionate about the beauty industry, I never thought I'd find myself knee-deep in brows and lashes, but here I am, and it’s truly one of the best adventures life has thrown my way!
Since graduating in 2018, I've been on a mission to perfect the art of esthetics. As a proud member of the NCEA (National Coalition of Estheticians Association), I’m currently on the path to becoming NCEA certified—a title I wear like a badge of honor. But my commitment to education doesn’t stop there. I’m a firm believer in the power of continuous learning, attending conferences yearly to stay ahead of the curve in this ever-evolving industry. I’m also insured as a member of the Associated Skin Care Professionals.
How it all started
- Lila H
"Kaya is absolutely amazing. I received my first wax & eyebrow tint with her because my sisters eyebrows are ALWAYS PERFECT. Kaya made me feel so comfortable & relaxed during my appointment. And not to mention PERFECT EYEBROWS! I will not stop coming to Kaya Ethestics because I truly feel so confident with perfectly shaped/tinted eyebrows. I have a photoshoot coming up & am crossing my fingers for an opening! Thank you Kaya for being so sweet & doing amazing work"

"The absolute BEST!!!! Kaya is wonderful and her services are life changing. I get my eyebrows waxed w/ tint and have received that service about four or five times now. I have never enjoyed and felt as confident with my eyebrows in my entire life. What used to be one of my biggest insecurities is now one of my most loved features. Since my last service I have received several compliments from family, friends and strangers. If you are considering visiting Kaya, please do yourself a favor and just do it! You’ll be welcomed with a warm smile into a cozy studio. It truly doesn’t get better than what you will receive here."

"I love getting my classic eyelashes done by Kaya. She does everything perfectly and I have not had an issue. She also answers any questions you have about any of her services with a lot of detail so you can make an informed decision on what works best for you. Everyone compliments my eyelashes and even my eye doctor said that she did a great job because he couldn’t tell that they were extensions."
