Hot Summer = Changing Hair!

A new style that seems to arising, perhaps because of the heat, perhaps because of the humidity, maybe even just because it's so easy, fun, and cute!

Many celebrities have also been sporting this hairstyle - used with confidence by Katie Holmes, Sharon Stone, Victoria Beckham, Natalie Portman or Rihanna.
The pixie hairstyles are really versatile and feminine haircuts. They are ultra short and close to the head but can be styled either for longer or shorter hair. Usually the front of the hair is left longer, but it is shorter on top and in the back. If you leave it longer on the front, you can easily obtain a sexier look by sweeping bangs across one eye.
Your short locks will surely call attention to your natural beauty and you will feel glamorous with your chic short haircut. Pixie is a great choice if you have a busy schedule and you don’t want to waste much time with styling your hair. It is wonderful time-saving hairstyle that highlights your features and brings attention to your face.

Pixie cuts work really well for fine hair, especially with the right styling products. It is also perfect for a woman who dares to experiment with new, sexy hairstyles. If you are a little more daring, you can also try new colors that convey your personal charm. Young women can add playful highlights to reflect their energy and youthfulness.

They can even wear stylish headbands and glamorous hair accessories. For a more sophisticated and formal look, you can comb your hair down with some styling gel. It is a really hot hairstyle this year, which can be cute and innocent, elegant and seductive at the same time, depending on how you style it. Pixie is also convenient for active tomboys, because it is a very short, still really feminine haircut and because it gently gives accent to your beautiful features. Pixie means confidence and style. If you feel that short hair would match your face, be daring to try a chic pixie haircut for this summer.

It's a Cut-a-Thon!

A few months ago one of the stylists at Ihloff stumbled across an article in the Tulsa People. She soon realized the family she was reading about was the Cupps family. Michelle Cupps is a regular guest of the salon. After reading this story she felt compelled to help their cause. Michelle and Troy had a little boy named Mitchell. Mitchell was born with a rare condition called Schimke immuno-osseous dyplasia. This rare form of Dwarfism is so rare that the government doesn't give funding.
A few days had passed and she decided to take action and took steps to begin a cut-a-thon. We contacted Michelle and she was thrilled to learn about it. As we began brainstorming ideas for the cut-a-thon Mitchell lost his battle. Finding out Mitchell passed away made us want to do this even more. There was even more of a fire inside of us to help raise money for Little Giants.
