That's worked for me.
Also you can be updated with Intel HAXM as they fixed this error.
Download HAXM latest version here (Restart macOS Required):

Hope it help.
The command line installation doesn't work and gives unsupported mac os version error, while the installation through IntelHAXM_6.2.1.mpkg works but kext is not loaded due to "Approved Kernel Extension Loading" changes,
So you will need to allow the extensions from Intel and restart your mac, then launch the emulator like from inside Android Studio,
To enable go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy as shown in the screenshot:
I was able to install Intel HAXM drivers on my Mac using the instructions provided in this post. There might be other (better) solutions to this, but I have successfully managed to start the emulator this way. Essentially you need to disable the security protection on kext before trying to install the HAXM drivers.
This command will only work on Recovery OS, which means that you need to restart your Mac and hold command + R until the Apple logo is displayed. Next, you need to go to Utilities > Terminal and run:
csrutil enable --without kext
Then restart your Mac and log in, go here to download the latest Intel HAXM driver. Unzip if needed, edit the silent_install.sh file and search for the 10.12 OS version. You will find it on the line which should look like this
for v in 10.8 10.9 10.10 10.11 10.12
You need to add the 10.13 version after 10.12 (separated by space, just like the rest). Save the file and open a Terminal at this location. Run ./silent_install.sh and that should be it. To be sure it works, you can also run sudo kextload -bundle-id com.intel.kext.intelhaxm.
Now your emulator should work.
In order to re-enable the kext security protection, you need to restart your Mac in Recovery OS, open a Terminal window and run csrutil enable.
Intel Corporation just fixed it and released HAXM for macOS Sierra and macOS High Sierra, just download the ZIP and execute the .dmg file, then restart Android Studio. It worked for me, hope it works for you too.
