X-treme Beauty & Beyond, Fredericksburg

Nikia Haynes began her beauty career as a makeup artist, and over the years, she started to realize that many of her clients were using makeup to mask skin blemishes. So she decided to learn how to combat the causes, instead of simply covering up the symptoms.

At X-treme Beauty & Beyond LLC, she clears skin with chemical peels, ultrasonic facials, microdermabrasion treatments, and back facials. In order to really diagnose a problem, Nikia relies on an analysis with a skin scope. This allows her to get an in-depth look at the different layers of skin and see things that might be invisible to the naked eye, such as sun damage or lip imprints left over from overly aggressive cheek kisses.
