Emerald Studios Denver

Emerald Studios Denver was founded by two best friends, Bri and Mac, and is run by the two of them as licensed estheticians. The studio describes itself as a space for bold beauty, confidence and creativity, where clients can be themselves, whether they want something soft and subtle or vibrant and glamorous.

A visit usually starts with a Consultation, which is free, runs 30 minutes or more, and can be done virtually or in person. Lash work is the core of the menu, from New Client Ritual sets priced from $55, offered at a special rate for first-time clients and for clients returning after a year away, to Custom Lashes and Express Lashes with either artist. Express lash sets are treated as full sets when less than 40 percent of the lashes remain, and a removal may be needed first depending on the condition of the lashes. Lash fills are recommended every two to three weeks, since outgrown lashes can damage natural lashes. Lifts, Lamis and Tint and Lash Removal are also offered. The studio also offers Permanent Makeup with Bri, Waxing from $25, and Add-ons from $10.

Booking and policies: appointments must be made through GlossGenius, and an active card on file is required to book future appointments. Deposits are required for first-time clients and for permanent makeup. Cancelling or rescheduling within 24 hours of an appointment incurs a charge of 50 percent of the service, and clients who do not arrive within 10 minutes are charged the full service cost. Refunds are not issued, but a free fix may be offered if the artist is notified within 5 days of the service. After-hours appointment requests carry a $25 upcharge. Permanent makeup touch-ups booked more than 6 weeks after the procedure may be charged as a full touch-up. The studio is open Tuesday and Saturday from 10 to 6, Thursday and Friday from 10 to 7, and closed Sunday, Monday and Wednesday.

Built around self-expression and creativity, with work that can range from soft and subtle to bold and glamorous.
