our Team

We’re basically family.

Putting together a dream-team isn’t easy, but we did it! All of the stylists at the Blonding Parlour have a stunning portfolio of work and care about making each and every client feel as beautiful as they are.

Emi Romero

OWNER

Hi, I’m Emi—owner of The Blonding Parlour, The Blonding Parlour & Collective, and Rumored Hair Extensions.

I started my first salon in 2022 with one goal in mind: to create a safe, uplifting space for baby stylists to grow and thrive. I never imagined how much it would evolve, and I’m constantly in awe watching our stylists step into their full potential—whether they’re just starting out or continuing to elevate their careers as seasoned artists.

Everything I do is for our team. I created our hair extension line to provide the highest quality options that match the incredible work our stylists deliver every day.

These days, I’ve taken a step back from working behind the chair full-time, but you can still find me in the salon doing extensions or color here and there—always pouring into my people and supporting their growth.

When I’m not in the salon, I’m at home with my amazing husband and our three kiddos, soaking up every moment.

    #fhtogglels/Bio/Close/ib

    Hi, I’m Sunny! I attended cosmetology school right after graduating high school in 2021 and have been passionate about this industry ever since! Growing up I always loved doing my hair and wearing as many different outfits as I could in one day. I am so happy to be in an industry that I love, surrounded by an amazing team.

    I specialize in all things blonde with a particular love for lived-in blondes. I also love doing hand tied extensions! But my favorite part of doing hair is my clients. Helping you feel confident, beautiful, and like the best version of yourself is what inspires me every day behind the chair.

    I am excited to be working at our Firestone location and to be back in my hometown! When I’m not at work you can find me at home with my dog, Beau, and my fiancé. I love the western lifestyle, country music and spending time with family and friends!

    I can’t wait to have you in my chair!

I became a licensed esthetician in 2018 and later expanded my skills by earning my cosmetology license. In between, I spent three years studying chemistry at CSU-because beauty is a science too!

    I'm all about color and have recently fallen in love with extensions.

    Blonding, reds, and vivids are my absolute favorites, but brunettes will always have a special place in my heart.

    When I'm not behind the chair, you'll find me reading or hanging out with my puppy, Goose, and my fiancé, Ricky.
