Meet Emily! She is a Blonding and Lived In Specialist, that enjoys all the little ocd tasks that come with foiling! Emily originally pursued college at iupui until she realized her real passion was becoming a cosmetologist.

She is always accepting new clients and loves to meet new faces! Her schedule is Mondays, Thursdays thru Saturdays, and at request only Sundays! She is very flexible with working around her clients schedules! When Emily is not at the salon you can find her with her three cats, going kayaking, working out, or at theme parks which is her favorite hobby! Fun fact about Emily, and also because she gets asked this a ton, Noel is actually her middle name because her last name would get mispronounced way too much!
