Brows & Hair for Every Body.

Hi! I’m Alyssa, a queer, gender-affirming, Denver, Colorado-based hair, makeup and brow artist.

Refining our Concept of Beauty

I believe our inner and outer selves are deeply connected. When we feel confident in how we look, it supports how we feel inside, and when we feel grounded within, it radiates into the world.

Refine Beauty is here to honor that connection, offering services that help you feel seen, affirmed, and authentically yourself - inside and out.
