Emily Ezrow

Hello! I’m Emily and I’ve been a licensed cosmetologist for 16 years! I went to Seton High School and then graduated from The Aveda Frederic’s Institute! I moved to Harrison, Ohio with my husband in 2013 and we have 3 beautiful children, 2 boys and 1 girl. They keep us busy within the community! When I’m not at work I’m usually toting around my children, or hanging with friends, or my favorite - grabbing a blanket and binge watching a new true crime documentary on my couch! I have been a salon manager and a cosmetology educator in the past, and found my wings land me here at Blackbird & Co. Hair Studio! I am passionate about making others feel confident, comfortable and beautiful. I specialize in all haircutting, from men’s cuts to bouncy layers or beautiful face framing! I also offer many other services, from foils to fades, buzz cuts to blowouts, to waxing, nails or tinsel! You can relax in my chair and leave with great hair! I can’t wait for you to book with me, for my clients are so much more than just that, they’re lifelong friends!
