HAIR
Demonstrate your unique artistry to industry leaders and fellow stylists.
The Long Pixie
Sunday, February 23 at 3:00p
Transform a grown-out pixie cut with flair and finesse! Picture a client who received a chic pixie in the fall, now grown out after a few winter months, but still wanting a style that’s fun, flirty, and full of life.
Your challenge is to reimagine this in-between length, blending the spirit of the original cut with fresh texture, shape, and movement for a modern twist.
