Fresh Looks for Life’s Big Moments

From new schools and weddings to first jobs and milestone moments like kindergarten graduations, final game of soccer season and family vacations for summer breaks—life is full of new beginnings. These occasions deserve a fresh start and a fresh look. At Pigtails & Crewcuts, we understand how important it is to feel confident and polished when stepping into life’s next chapter. Looking your best is more than just appearance—it’s a sign of respect for the moment and the memories being made.

Our stylists are passionate about hair. Whether it’s a child’s first recital or a wedding day up-do, they approach every style with creativity and care. Present them with a big event, and they’ll have 20 ideas ready—think intricate braids, elegant up-dos, and fun accessories to complete the look.

If you’re getting ready for an upcoming event and wondering what hairstyle would be best, here are three expert tips from your neighborhood family salon:

1. Talk to a Stylist You Trust

Your stylist knows your hair type, natural growth patterns, and what styles will flatter your face shape. Curious about parting your hair to work with a cowlick or trying a trending look? Ask their advice—they love to share ideas and can recommend styles based on years of experience.

2. Gather Information That Matches Your Hair

Browse online for styles that resemble your hair type and texture. Bring a few favorites to your appointment, and your stylist can help choose the most flattering and practical option—whether you’re going for low-maintenance beach vibes or a more polished look.

Ear Piercing Made Easy at Pigtails & Crewcuts

At Pigtails & Crewcuts, we offer great haircuts—but did you know we also provide Easy Ear Piercing Services?

Ear piercing is often considered a tradition or “rite of passage” for many families. Some parents choose to have their children’s ears pierced at a very young age, based on cultural, personal, or family customs. For others, it’s all about waiting for the right moment—when they’re old enough and brave enough to take on the experience.

While traditional needle piercing is an option for some, we’ve found that using the Studex Ear Piercing system is a quicker and easier solution. We even offer the option to pierce both ears simultaneously to minimize anxiety, especially for younger children.  Please call us to ensure we have two technicians if you would like both ears pierced at once, otherwise we may just have one technician and the service will be one ear at a time. With over 30 earring styles to choose from in a variety of gold or stainless-steel options, you can be confident that your little one’s ear piercing will be both safe and stylish. 

At the end of the piercing, the brave candidate will walk away with a certificate for bravery and we provide thorough aftercare instructions and an ear care solution to ensure proper healing. At Pigtails & Crewcuts, we make this special milestone simple, safe, and memorable for your family!  In addition to first time ear piercing, we also offer second and third ear piercings!
