Hey my name is Abbie, I’m the creator of Rind, and I am glad that you’re here. This is a space where everyone can feel welcomed, taken care of, and validated. When you’re at Rind, we want you to be able to speak freely, express yourself, and leave feeling better than you came in (and always with your next visit booked).

 

My approach is to bring calmness, healing, humor, corrective skincare, and education into my treatment room with a sincere emphasis on building relationships and serving our clients in this environment. I believe that you should be educated over your skin health and you should know the why behind what we do and your skincare routine. This is expert skin care. I offer premium services with your comfort in mind, no exceptions. We believe that you should have your cake and eat it too; and what an honor it is to get to make you feel confident in your skin for a living.

 

When I am not at The Rind Spa I am either at home watching reality tv cuddled up with my husband and our two black cats; tending to my plants and my birding hobby. Or, I am spending time with friends and family and looking for the nearest hiking trail. Honestly, I’m a Swiftie, iced coffee lover, podcast addict, biiig Hawkeye WBB fan, inherited a love for any and all Chicago sports teams (but sports talk is prohibited, I will call the authorities), and constantly yearning to scroll into my next rabbit hole. I am a Mexican food enthusiast. I don’t discriminate; I’ll take a taco, burrito, flauta, the limit is endless. I have always jokingly called myself a chronic oversharer, but please note that it’s not a joke - beware asking questions you don’t want answers to because I’ll spill it all. 

 

My personal favorite treatments are facial massage and brazilians. 

 

Situations you can rely on Rind for:

• The brows you over tweezed 30 years ago

​

• The guy at the mall guilt tripped you into buying skincare and it did nothing for you (other than the break out)

​

• You tripped and fell into being the most important person on your work project and you can’t go home and decompress because your kids also live there

​

• Your besties wedding is in a month and it’s basically a high school reunion, and yes, your high school boyfriend will be there

​

• Prom is in less than 72 hours and your child got a Wizards of Waverly Place level zit - it’s voicing opinions

​

• You got pulled over for applying mascara and brow pencil at the stoplight 

​

• You are still using tinkle razors for your facial hair - especially the unibrow

​

• You’re home from vacation, but where did the vacation glow go?

​

• You’re 7 months pregnant and can’t reach anymore… Enough said. 

​

• You worshipped the sun and gave years of your life to the tanning bed and now your skin is reminding you of your sins

 

Whatever your story is, we’ve got your back

- seriously, anything.
