University of North Texas Shilah Phillips Set The Tone at 2010 Collin Cabaret

Shilah Phillips set the tone and hit all the high notes her rendition of “Heard it Through the Grapevine” to kickoff the 2010 Collin Cabaret - A Silver Tribute to Excellence in Education - a signature event that raises non-endowed funds to benefit students with scholarships. On stage is where Shilah belongs, with a history of outstanding vocals and pageant wins behind here - she looks and sounds sensationally stunning.

Shilah is alumnus of Collin College and currently on the road to completing her degree in Jazz from the University of North Texas. She began her studies at the prestigious Howard University in Washington, D.C. where she received educational honors in addition to the most Outstanding Vocalist Award.
Beyond the vocal talents Shilah's beauty and grace has carried her on to other outstanding accomplishments where she competed in the Miss America pageant system and setting records along the way; In 2006 Shilah Phillips became the first black woman to reign as Miss Texas in the organization's 85 year history, one of few women to climb the ranks to the Miss America pageant in one try, winning to reign as Miss Frisco 2006, and 1st runner up to Miss America.

During the past 25 years, Collin College has grown to serve more than 46,000 credit and continuing education students – many of whom rely heavily on scholarships and financial aid assistance to fund their higher education dreams, adding to the importance of Collin Cabaret, which is in its third year.

The 2009 Collin Cabaret raised over $300,000 to support student scholarships. These funds were used to award approximately 300 scholarships for the 2009 academic year.

Troy Richard Salon is a long time supporter of Shilah Phillips and we look forward to standing with Shilah on her red carpet.

To learn more about Shilah Phillips or her music, visit her on myspace or contact Troy Richard Salon.

Love your look.

6 Tips For Your Baby's First Haircut

Baby, Meadow Lee's First Haircut at Troy Richard Salon was successful because we know the long-term importance of your baby's first haircut.

You may not remember your first haircut and if you do... you may be wondering what is the best approach to your baby's first haircut. The first haircut sets the stage for years to come. The first haircut can be really significant in many cultures and religions... as in a rite of passage or a huge milestone. Its normal for parents here in the US to save a lock of the cut hair.

What age in which the first haircut occurs varies widely, depends on an array of issues including the baby's amount of hair – in some cases the trepidation gives way to tears at the sight of the scissors, a long cape surrounding them, or sitting in the tall salon chair... others, wonder what is happening to them.
Your child's first trip to the salon can be very exciting, but they won't see it that way. So you can use these tips to keep your baby happy and smiling before and after the first haircut:

6 Tips For Your Baby's First Haircut

1. Know When to Go
There's no right or wrong time to go. It comes down to this: Do you want to preserve her baby look, or do you think she's ready for a big-kid 'do?

2. Give a Heads-Up
Toddlers don't like surprises, so have your child watch you get a haircut or visit his barber before the big day. And read books about the subject: We like Henry's First Haircut, by Dan Yaccarino, and No Haircut Today! by Elivia Savadier.

3. Pick the Right Place
Choose a salon like Troy Richard Salon that knows how to deal with squirmy little rascals. Many kids' hair places have videos and books to keep little kids entertained.

4. Be Prepared
Let your child bring a small toy. These will help him stay calm and keep his hands occupied. You might also hide a treat in your purse for afterward. Before the barber begins, swing the chair away from the mirror so your child doesn't fixate on the scissors. If he refuses to wear a cape, put one on and show him how it looks. If he won't sit still, you may need to plop him down on your lap for the duration.

5. Get Psyched
If you're apprehensive, your child will pick up on it and be more likely to cry during her haircut. Talk to her about how much fun it will be... when she sees that you're looking forward to it, she will too.

6. Plan Carefully
Book your appointment between mealtime and nap time so your child isn't hungry or too cranky. Call Troy Richard Salon ahead to confirm appointment. And don't hesitate to reschedule if your child seems out of sorts that day. The first haircut sets the stage for years to come so it's important to make it a positive experience.

If you have more tips we would love to hear your success and horror stories. If you have questions or want to schedule your baby's first haircut send email to hair@troyrichardsalon.com


Love your look.
