Meet Chelle
Multi-licensed skincare professional and enthusiast with an eye for fashion and faces.
I decided to make a mark in the beauty industry as a freelance makeup artist and quickly learned — skincare is everything! Since then I've been an esthetician for 15 years working exclusively for Black woman-owned businesses learning what it takes to be a preferred practitioner.
In 2017, I traded a comfortable full-time career to become a part-time solo esthetician to focus on elevating my talent while starting a family with my husband. And in 2020, we legally traded our conventional last name for a chosen legacy name ‘rudo’ (‘love’ in Shona). With the births of our daughter and son, self-love is important now more than ever to model good skin care.
On a mental health day, I enjoy a gluten-free pescetarian dish, binge-watching a Netflix documentary series, or (my absolute FAVE) gleefully rooting for designers on Project Runway.

Rudo means 'love' in Shona, a bantu language indigenous to southern Africa. I love skincare and how it heals, harmonizes and hydrates.

Because it’s about time we normalize ‘em, right? Make RUDO Studio a part of your glam squad as the radiance provider!
Ethics.
All celebrated brands have one. Rudo Studio is passionate about providing you with the best curated facial. Harnessing the incredible benefits of nature to help you achieve healthy and hydrated skin. That means organic, vegan, and clean products using advanced tools (within its scope of practice) sans an ‘add-on’ fee.
Aesthetics.
A liberating loft reminiscent of Studio 54. Drawing inspiration from its velvet ropes, dancing the night away, disco balls, and “blow”. You’re invited to an unadulterated ambiance of velvet drapes, dozing the stress away, ornate gold mirrors, and sips with services to get you addicted to “glow”. The vibe is trendy, inclusive and refreshing— come chillax!
