Hi! I'm Rhonda Coleman.
With my well honed 20+ years of esthetics skills and some unique creative tools we can collaborate on more than just “a wax.”
Moss Beauty was founded in North Carolina in 2010. Having moved with my family to San Francisco in early 2023, I opened this new space to provide my special waxing services. My experience includes working with physicians and a wide range of skincare lines since 1995. In that time I’ve accomplished a lot, including making my own products, writing a book, creating an experience using tools so we can collaborate on more than just the standard “bikini wax.”
The services I provide are tailored to your body’s comfort and style, and I ask you questions during the process to ensure collaboration and consent. As I take time during the service to get it right, there is time to chat. During our conversations, I hope to provide useful information shamelessly. That’s why I became a Somatic Sexologist! (And a Certified Somatic Sex Educator & Sexological Bodyworker here in SF in 2016). I also have been in a certification program for pelvic scar tissue remediation (STREAM with Ellen Heed, PhD) for several years. I am not a therapist or specialist in couples. I do not intend to be anything but a caring Esthetician, educator, learner and fellow traveler.
Every Body is Welcome!
There is often a relationship that forms with the people who groom us, much like a trusted friend or a therapist.
I take this aspect of the work seriously and have gotten certifications, so I speak to you from a place a knowledge, not just personal experience.
I truly want to have informative, useful conversations with my people. I charge more for sessions because there’s more here for you than just a wax. I have made a difference in people’s lives and I want to keep doing that.
It’s scary to be vulnerable and it’s worth it!
AT HOME
I usually recommend a daily skincare product and twice-a-week exfoliation in the shower. This helps the skin release ingrown hairs and helps discourage microbial imbalances.
I stock a curated range of products which I am happy to educate you about. If you need to replenish your products you can order through the Fur website or buy other things at your next appointment.

KIND WORDS from CLIENTS
Want more info and more options? Get the Moss Beauty Lookbook!
The Lookbook is great place to explore for folks who feel like beginners. Use before professional waxing, or when shaving at home. The Lookbook is full of inspiring photos and lady-positive information to boost self confidence and knowledge of female bodies.
I made the first lookbook as a waiting room magazine for inspiration, like back in the days when we used paper magazines full of celebrities to show our stylist an example of what look we wanted for our haircut. Enjoy!
In the works is a Moss Beauty Lookbook for styling on bodies with a penis. Let me know if you’d like to be included as a model, especially if you have a unique style and we’ll schedule time for photography when it’s not red (within a few days afterward.) *I do not pay people to model as these publications cost a lot to make and do not make any profit. It’s art that matters, art for information.
