At IRIS Studios the health and safety of our clients and staff is our number one priority. We are taking very strict measures to ensure yours and our safety as we navigate through this pandemic.

Our company policy includes measures we are taking to help contain the spread of the coronavirus. We ask that every client visiting us to please do the same. Currently, we will only be able to accommodate you if you make an appointment. You can find the link to make an appointment by following the Appointments tab at the top of this page or by clicking the link at the bottom of this page. If you are making an appointment, please carefully read this page prior to making your appointment. There are certain limits to the services that we are able to provide. As an example, we are unable to accommodate any piercing or jewelry change service that would require you to take off your face covering. That will include any piercing on the nose or mouth. You can add yourself to our wait list for nose and oral piercings by easily texting us a code. Text the code NOSExDENVER or LIPxDENVER to 833-222-3169 to be added to our Denver wait list. Text the same number and use the code NOSExBOULDER or LIPxBOULDER to be added to our Boulder wait list. We will notify you as soon as we are able to offer these services.

Our coronavirus (COVID-19) company policy is susceptible to changes with the introduction of additional governmental guidelines. If so, we will update this page as soon as possible.

Many of the health and safety precautions we will be taking we already do everyday at IRIS. We want you to know that we have increased those measures to our Gallery Assistants that help you in the gallery. Here are the things we are implementing to create a safer environment:

upon arrival each staff member will be screened for symptoms. This screening is documented and kept on site. Any staff member that does not pass the symptoms screen will be sent home immediately.
all staff will wear a face covering at all times
all staff will maintain social distancing of at least 6ft whenever possible
all staff will wear nitrile gloves when helping clients
all staff will wash and sanitize hands after each client interaction

In addition to the measures we are taking in the front gallery section of our studios we ask that you come prepared to help us in keeping a safe and clean environment. Here are the things we ask of you to prepare for your visit at IRIS:

due to restrictions from our health department we are unable to provide any service whatsoever that would require you to remove your face covering. This includes jewelry changes and piercing of the nostril, septum, lip and tongue. We are unable to provide those services at this moment.
please make an appointment beforehand. If you show up to the studio unannounced, you may still make an appointment for later that day if something is available. We will have QR codes on the outside of our storefront that will take you directly to our website to book.
you must arrive with your own face covering. If you do not have on a face covering, you will be denied entry.
you may bring only one additional person with you. That person must also be wearing a face covering. If they are not wearing a face covering they will be denied entry.
before you enter our studio you and your additional person will screened for symptoms. This can be done by tapping the blue "Symptoms Screen" tab at the bottom of this page. Once you submit this form it goes to our cloud account and we will be able to view it. Please wait for your text/email allowing you entry.
please use social distancing of at least 6ft while in our studio
please use contactless payment methods. We are not accepting cash. You may use a credit/debit card and we will provide you with a single-use disposable touch screen implement to use

With all of that being said we want you to know that we are very excited to be back in the studio and we cannot wait to see you! We truly love what we do and feel so honored that you visit us and keep us in business. Of course, we are taking this pandemic very seriously and we want you to know what steps we are taking to keep our community safe and still be able to provide piercing and jewelry in a fun and upbeat environment.
