MEET THE ORIGINAL “BLONDIE”
It all began with a dream and a mobile spray tanning booth. Mind blowing, since Blondie's has grown into an award-winning 3,000 square foot full-service salon, spa, and boutique that employs 20 team members!
Blondie’s Founder and Owner Lindsey Babinec got her start in 2008, quickly outgrowing her spray tanning setup and evolving to her first brick and mortar location in Columbus, Indiana. She couldn’t predict how high the demand would be in her hometown for reliable beauty services and gradually expanded her business into what it’s become today, located off Washington Street in the historic downtown of Columbus.

Christian Pinzon
Salon Manager
READ BIOChristian Pinzon
×Through training and experience I have developed a style that is effortless yet sophisticated. I enjoy precision in my work, because I find the better I perform in the Salon, the better you can style your hair at home. I strive to interpret rather than copy today’s trends, and to translate them into your everyday lives. I am inspired by Modern Art, Architecture and design (mostly Mid Century Modern), and I am amazed by the beauty in nature and all people. In my spare time I enjoy relaxing with family and friends, and playing in the pool or hiking and biking the trails. I also love to travel, and consistently love to immerse myself in different cultures and places near or far. As a guest in my chair, I hope to develop a relationship based on care and trust in the fact that my ultimate goal will be to make you feel beautiful, confident, healthy and ready to take on the world.
