Houston’s Perfect Haircut?

The perfect haircut depends on your hair.  Do you have thick, fine, wavy or straight hair?  Your hair’s natural texture often dictates the haircut that looks best on you.  Other factors to consider include face shape, skin tone and age.  Lifestyle even plays a role in selecting a perfect Houston haircut.  Are you outside often?  If so, a shorter hair style may help your survive Houston’s heat and humidity.  Are you inside during the summer and have time to maintain and style long, wavy hair?  If so, a long and layered option may be your perfect haircut.  Want a great long hair style but lack the volume to pull it off?  No need to worry, we also offer a variety of hair extensions including clip ins and halos.

Pixies and Bobs

Popular short Houston haircuts include bobs and pixies. The bob is an American classic.  Cut just a move the shoulder, the bob is generally features a single, symmetric layer.  Bobs also come in various styles including lobs (long bob), graduated bobs and inverted bobs.  Rhianna and Victoria Beckham have also made asymmetric bobs quite popular in recent years.  Asymmetric Bobs, with one side significantly longer than the other, are actually quite difficult to cut. Make sure your stylist is knowledgeable and skilled with this type of haircut. Pixie haircuts feature a shorter back and sides coupled with a longer top.  Celebrities that have worn this timeless cut include Keira Knightly, Winona Ryder and Scarlett Johanson.
