Meet Emma + Grace

Emma

Owner / Master Artist

Curating a space where a large range of humanity can come to & enjoy has always been a dream of mine. In 2020, I made those dreams a reality and have truely never looked back. I am beyond grateful for the joy this studio and our treatments bring to my clients & I. Nestled in the picturesque Cambridge, New Zealand, our studio is not just a place for treatments; it's a haven for emotional + physical respite, self-care and pampering. Come in your ugs, gumboots, heels or anything in between and be welcomed into our space where you can feel comfortable in your own skin.

I have been in beauty for 9+ years. I feel grateful each and every day that I was able to find my 'thing' so young. I have a huge passion for cosmetic tattoo + its befits to all but most especially those who need reconstructive work done. SO rewarding! I specialise in mature skin & corrections among other things. I believe everybody deserves & can benefit from these treatments & therefore will always guide my clients down their best treatment pathway, NOT turn people away.

Together with my talented colleague Grace, who's an absolute wizard with lashes and brows, we cater to all. Whether you're seeking subtle enhancements or bold transformations, we're here to bring your lash + brow / PMU dreams to life.

Join us at Prodigal Brows & Beauty - we would love to have you. Every visit promises a blend of care, expertise, relaxation, and, of course, a touch of magic!

Grace

Lash & Brow Tech

Hi! I’m Grace, an emerging artist here at Prodigal Beauty! Growing up in Cambridge, I spent my days riding horses and helping out at racing stables.

My passion for beauty started when I was just a young teen, building my makeup collection and practicing whenever I could steal a moment. I’ve always been interested in beauty and started my lash journey from home in 2021. Since then, Emma has personally trained me in every thing I now offer. With advanced, strenuous 1 on 1 learning I feel extremely confident in my capabilities. I learned from the best!

Being a part of the Prodigal team for a year now, I’m loving soaking up knowledge and meeting beautiful new faces + building meaningful relationships with my regular clients. The best part of what I do? Seeing my clients light up with a smile and radiate confidence after a treatment with me.

I’ve got a soft spot for brow laminations and lash lifts—they’re my favourite treatments right now. I can’t wait to meet many more of you as I continue to grow as an artist and person in this wonderful industry!
