With every season comes new trends in clothes, shoes and accessories and, of course, in hairstyles, which is even more apparent as kids head back to school.
“Although current styles are mostly dictated by the fashion media, many kids develop their own sense of style and fashion at an early age, and begin to take an interest in looking cool and hip,” said Sandra Barbetta, co-owner, with husband Cosmo, of Cosmos Salon and Day Spa.
“However, sometimes children develop a sense of personal style before their grooming skills kick in, and perfecting those new cool hairdos can be a chore for little hands and time-consuming for moms and dads,” she further stated. “Exploring simple and fun hairstyle ideas for children helps them look and feel great without a lot of hassle.”
According to Sandra, kids’ hairstyles tend to require some degree of planning. “Styling kids’ hair can be so much fun, but sometimes, as parents, we run out of ideas, Sandra explained. “With back-to-school time, life gets hectic, and we end up with not enough time to do anything with it, especially the hour before school, when getting ready. So don’t let it happen to you,” Sandra warned. “Plan ahead.”
For help in finding inspiration for your child’s next cut, Sandra suggests letting the team at Cosmos come to the rescue. When discussing new looks for back to school, their expert stylists can help narrow down some stylish, yet, easy choices, and create a look right for each child’s personality and lifestyle.
Also, before a style appointment, kids and parents can check out the newest styles featured in magazines and online, and decide on the length and the style to be sure everyone feels comfortable with the end result. According to Sandra, short, pixie-cut styles for girls and pompadours for boys are popular this fall. Also, shaggy and spiky cuts are in for boys. Girls continue to love long and medium looks, too.
“Keep in mind that texture also plays an important role in the desired look,” Sandra stated. “Your stylist will be able to come up with ideas for straight, wavy or curly hair. Our team of professionals, at Cosmos, will have your kids looking back-to-school ready in no time. Make an appointment now, so everyone has a chance to practice their new styles before the big day.”
