JESS

Jess is the owner and master artist of Boulder Brows.  She received her aesthetics education from the Denver School of Botanical and Medical Aesthetics, after earning her Bachelor's Degree from the University of Colorado, Boulder. She is a licensed Cosmetic Tattoo Artist and has had extensive advanced permanent makeup training, with eight years of experience in the industry.  

Jess specializes in Cosmetic Eyebrow Tattoos, Permanent Eyeliner, semi-permanent freckles, and Saline Tattoo Removal. She trained with Carthy C to earn her certification in Nano-Machine Hairstrokes. She has Microblading certifications from Everlasting Brows and the Irina Chen Microblading Academy, and also earned her #Guybrow Course Certification from The Collective. By Tina Davies.  

In addition, she has advanced certifications in both Saline Tattoo Removal from Teryn Darling of Girlz Ink., and in Tinted Lips from the Daria Chuprys Permanent Makeup Academy, where she trained under both Daria and her husband Kostas, two widely respected PMU artists in the industry. 

"Art has always been a passion of mine.  When it came to brows, it was important to me to take not just one Microblading certification training.  I wanted a really solid foundation to master the technique, and then develop my own unique style." 

"Brows became a passion of mine when I realized just how impactful Microblading could be on a person's life.  To be able to give the gift of waking up every morning, looking in the mirror, and feeling your most confident self - that feeling is what fuels the passion I bring to work everyday.  I absolutely love what I do.  And I'm so thankful that I get to share this business that I've worked so hard to build, and am so incredibly proud of, with every beautiful face that walks through my door."  

OUR STORY

Boulder Brows was established eight years ago by Jess, our owner. When she realized that brows and permanent makeup were going to be her focus, she struggled to find a work space that felt right. A med spa felt too serious, a tattoo shop felt intimidating, a hair salon just didn’t feel right either. Jess soon realized that she was going to have to create a brow focused salon concept because at that time, they just didn’t exist (at least in the way she envisioned).

So Boulder Brows began as a single room, with just 1 artist, in a large work-share space in Boulder. Business grew at such a fast pace that the move to Louisville into a bigger salon space was necessary. That’s when Sophia and Emily joined the team in our first Louisville salon, both of whom have gone on to chase bigger career dreams. Many permanent makeup artists have gotten their career starts at Boulder Brows, and we’re so proud of all of the dedication and mentorship we’ve provided to help them on their journey. As our team continued to grow, we quickly outgrew our last salon space and moved into our first storefront location! We were so in love with how beautiful our shop was, and how our clients loved this space as much as we did. It truly felt like home.

Now, after 5 beautiful years in our storefront salon, life has taken Boulder Brows down a new path. It is with a heavy heart that we have decided to close our doors in Louisville for good. Jess has relocated both personally and professionally to Fort Collins, where she owns and operates our new Foco salon. She is so grateful to have been able to serve her local clients for the last 8 years, and hopes to continue to see many of you in Fort Collins when it’s time for a Refresh! She is so excited for this new chapter to explore what this new city has to offer!
