Emily L

Former Makeup Artist. Girl Boss. Owner.

Emily LaBorde is the proprietor of BLEU, a Blowdry Bar. Combing a background of Marketing|Public Relations, feisty type A personality and the never ending search for the perfect professional blowout resulted in a puff of hot air..literally.

Originally from Marksville, LA Emily received her BA in Public Relations from Tulane University. Shortly upon graduation, Emily noticed a void in the local market for luxury blowout services and seized the opportunity to establish a new concept on her own terms. Forgoing the franchise route and in using her own high standards as the benchmark, Emily was able to create a venue and vibe where clientele could go relax, be pampered and look and feel fabulous for any occasion. With the Old Metairie location at capacity shortly after being established in 2013, a new location UpTown on Magazine Street was opened in December of 2016. Emily along with her BLEU “Krewe” of 20+ employees, seek to empower ladies by providing luxury hair and makeup services so that they look as fabulous as they feel.
