NEW YORK - Another New York staple is slowly fading away. In its heyday, there were more than two dozen Ricky’s locations in the city.

After shuttering a number of them in recent years, they're closing more - now reportedly going down from four to two stores.

"I live and die for Ricky’s so it’s crazy," said one shopper.

"It’s a nice place and I like it. It’s sad that they’re closing their business," noted another shopper.

The beloved beauty chain was once a major destination for colorful wigs, exotic cosmetics and Halloween costumes, but even some of their loyal customers have been turning to Internet for their items. 

"Sephora and the Internet are now a big thing. Nobody goes to Ricky’s unless there a New Yorker who have been here forever like myself," said one shopper.

The beauty retailer is now falling out of fashion after holding cult status for so long. At one point it felt like they were everywhere, but now people will apparently only have to two options - their East Village and SoHo locations to shop. 

"Everything changes in New York you know. It’s kind of a shame," said one shopper.

NY1's repeated attempts to reach the company for comment were unsuccessful.
