Endangered Beauty:
The Inspiration Behind the Collection
These animals and insects aren’t just striking visuals; they’re powerful symbols of resilience, vulnerability, and the urgent need for awareness. Many are already endangered or on the brink of extinction, representing the beauty we risk losing when we fail to protect what matters. Through our show, we’re shining a spotlight on these iconic creatures to inspire conversation, action, and artistic expression. It’s more than a showcase — it’s a call to preserve what’s rare, wild, and worth fighting for.
Trixie’s Artistic Team from Des Moines is gearing up for a major showcase at the Midwest Hair Show Awards, holding planning sessions and unveiling big creative plans.
They’re teaming up with Kristen, owner of Van Hair Collective, to co-create live artistry presentations that blend their signature techniques. This partnership aims to deliver an unforgettable, collaborative performance that celebrates both Trixie’s salon style and Van Hair Collective’s avant‑garde flair.
