About

AK Studio was founded by Angie DeFrancis-Cox and Kori Schell, who co-own the business and both work as stylists and makeup artists. Their creative work together has been published in print media, including Her Life, Jute, WED and Aisle.

The menu covers everyday haircuts, waxing for lip, brow and face, highlights, balayage and full color, along with special occasion hair and makeup. Wedding work is a major focus: the studio offers in-salon and on-site hair and makeup for brides and grooms and for wedding parties. Clients consult about their personal style before the wedding day, and brides book a trial appointment beforehand. Bridal hair and makeup packages include a trial session, and the bridal makeup package also includes eyelashes for the bride.

Beyond weddings, the team provides on-site hair and makeup for commercial film, photography, fashion spreads and video production. On-location services for other bookings must be within 30 miles of the studio, and further distances carry additional fees.

Appointments are required and can be made by email or by phone at 303-996-8070. Parking is on the south side of 6th Avenue or on nearby side streets. Gift certificates start at $25. The studio accepts cash, check, Visa, MasterCard and Discover. Gratuity is not included in service prices, and cancellations need 24 hours' notice to avoid a fee.

Hair and makeup are shaped around each client's personal style, with wedding clients consulted in advance. The owners say they keep looking for new ways to improve the client experience.
