PIXIE CUT SPECIALIST
Loan — Pixie & Short Hair Specialist
Loan Vo is a Level 5 stylist and longtime member of the Shampoo The Salon team, serving Tampa clients since joining the salon in 2008. Her approach to short hair combines precision with softness, creating pixie cuts that feel polished, modern, and wearable.
​
Loan especially enjoys creating classic and textured pixie shapes with thoughtful movement around the fringe, crown, and face. Rather than using the same shape for every client, she considers hair density, natural texture, growth patterns, facial features, and how much styling the client wants to do at home.
She is a great choice for guests who want a refined pixie, a softer feminine short cut, or a modern version of a classic shape that is easy to maintain between appointments.
Suzanne — Razor Cut & Pixie Specialist
Suzanne Soto is a Level 5 stylist with more than 30 years of haircutting experience and a specialty in razor cutting, textured short hair, and customized pixie cuts. A longtime member of the Shampoo The Salon team, Suzanne is known for creating short styles with softness, movement, and natural flow.
​
Her razor-cutting techniques allow her to remove weight, build texture, and create seamless movement without leaving the haircut feeling overly rigid or heavy. Suzanne customizes each pixie around the client’s hair texture, density, face shape, natural growth patterns, and daily styling routine.
​
She is especially well suited for clients who want a soft textured pixie, lived-in short haircut, added movement, or a shape that feels effortless and easy to recreate at home.
Which Pixie Cut Is Right for You?
Classic Pixie Cut:
Short, polished and shaped closely around the head. A classic pixie works well for clients who want a strong silhouette with minimal daily styling.
Textured Pixie Cut:
Texture creates separation, movement and softness. This is especially useful for clients wanting their pixie to feel less structured or severe.
Long Pixie / Bixie:
Keeps more length around the fringe, crown and sides. It is a good option for someone transitioning from a bob or trying short hair for the first time.
Razor-Cut Pixie:
A razor can create softness and movement through the haircut. Suzanne specializes in creating short shapes using razor-cutting techniques when appropriate for the client's hair.
​
The right pixie depends on more than a photograph. At Shampoo The Salon, we consider your hair density, natural texture, growth patterns, face shape and how much styling you want to do at home before creating the shape.
Why Choose Shampoo The Salon for a Pixie Cut in Tampa?
Short hair requires a different approach than simply cutting long hair shorter. Pixie cuts depend on balance, weight distribution, growth patterns and detailed finishing around the neckline, ears and fringe.
At Shampoo The Salon in Tampa, our pixie specialists Loan and Suzanne work with clients to create short hairstyles designed around their individual hair texture, density, face shape and lifestyle.
Our goal is not only to create a pixie that looks great when you leave the salon, but also to make sure you understand how to style and maintain the haircut at home. Whether you prefer a classic pixie, soft textured pixie, long pixie or razor-cut shape, your appointment begins with a consultation about the look you want and how much daily styling you are comfortable with.
