At Cutting Loose Salon, being part of our community means more than what happens behind the chair. Every year, we are honored to participate in something truly meaningful — the SPARCC Runway Fashion Show.

This event is more than a night of fashion. It’s a powerful celebration of strength, resilience, and hope.

Supporting SPARCC

The Safe Place and Rape Crisis Center (SPARCC) has been a vital part of our community since 1979, providing safe haven and support for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.

SPARCC offers:
✨ Emergency shelter and safety
✨ Counseling and advocacy services
✨ Prevention and education programs
✨ Support for survivors rebuilding their lives

Their mission is rooted in empowerment — helping individuals and families find safety, healing, and a path forward.

This is why this event holds such a special place in our hearts.

The Runway Fashion Show

The SPARCC Runway Show is an annual event that brings the community together to raise awareness and funds — all while celebrating the courage of survivors and the impact of support systems.

It’s an evening filled with:
✨ Inspiring stories
✨ Community connection
✨ Fashion and creativity
✨ Purpose-driven impact

And behind the scenes… that’s where we come in.

Our Role: Bringing Confidence to the Runway

Each year, our team has the honor of styling updos for the models walking in the show — helping them feel confident, beautiful, and empowered as they step onto the runway.

Why This Matters to Us

Our team truly loves being part of this event. It’s a reminder of why we do what we do — not just to create beauty, but to build confidence, connection, and community.

We are incredibly grateful to support an organization like SPARCC and to use our craft in a way that uplifts others.

Because sometimes, a hairstyle is more than a look —
it’s a moment of confidence, a feeling of empowerment, and a step forward.

Continuing the Impact

Our commitment to SPARCC goes beyond the runway.

Throughout the month of April, we are proud to host our annual SPARCC Spring Cleaning initiative across all salon locations. This is our way of extending the impact — inviting both our team and our guests to be part of something meaningful.

We encourage you to bring in gently used or unused beauty products, personal care items, and essentials to donate to those supported by SPARCC. These contributions go directly toward helping individuals and families as they rebuild and move forward.

It’s a simple act that creates real change — and a powerful reminder that community care starts with all of us.

Together, we can continue to uplift, support, and make a difference. 💙
