Strong Ties Bind Community and Hair Connection
By · CommentsNEENAH, WI, October 31, 2011 – 2011 proved to be a year filled with community stewardship and goodwill, with the help of one local salon. The Hair Connection in Neenah has made giving back a way of doing everyday business. The animal shelter, middle and high schools, local military wives and breast cancer marchers all felt the caring touch of this year’s Hair Connection initiatives.
Last spring, Hair Connection teamed up with YouthGo, a local non-profit organization encouraging kids to be a proactive part of the community. In return for their extra project work, they received free haircuts and styles of their choice this past August, courtesy of the Hair Connection staff.
In June of 2011, Hair Connection staffers decided to thank combat veterans with their Military Makeover campaign. Complete transformations included hair style, color, and make-up – helping one local mom, Rebekah Van de Hey, shake off the desert dust of her active 2010 duties.
When the Neenah Animal Shelter needed to raise money for abandoned, lost, and unwanted pets, the Hair Connection donated hair care items for the Furry Friends raffle. Held at Neenah’s Riverside Park, the Furry Friends event included a 2K walk, raffle, and micro-chipping clinic.
It didn’t surprise anyone when The Hair Connection got involved with Making Strides Against Breast Cancer again this year. They’ve made a habit of encouraging families with pink hair extensions and clip-ins for participants of the three-mile walk out of Memorial Park, also in Neenah.
Participating in community events keeps businesses in touch with the needs of their neighborhoods. When it comes to sponsorship, a small staff can still make a big difference. The caring hands at the Hair Connection prove it.
The Hair Connection is Fox Valley’s only non-commissioned salon, dedicated to personalized, exclusive service provided by each stylist, manicurist, and colorist. Owned and operated by Connie Koehnke, the Hair Connection is located at 1315 S. Commercial Street in Neenah. To learn more, call 920-722-2341.

Love Those Long Locks
By · Comments
How do you feel when you make that appointment to have your long hair styled? For many of us we feel a sense of anxiety. We have worked hard and long to grow our hair so long, but we also know that something must be done when our ends are splitting and we find a pony tail is our only quick fix. The biggest fear we face is whether or not too much hair will be cut.
At Hair Connection we understand your concerns. We listen to YOU. We want you to know that this is your time to be pampered. When our professional stylists are finished with your new style we guarantee that you will feel confident and relieved with a fresh new hair cut that shines, has texture to it, and most of all has kept its length.
There are many long hairstyles that our professional stylists are happy to discuss with you before we begin. If length is the most important attribute to you, there are many options. We can give you long, flowing layers, trim split ends, add more texture, and take that unwanted weight off that makes it so difficult to style. Or how about side bangs? These are very trendy right now and will blend nicely with long layers.
You can have long hair that is easy to care for. It’s all about style. As a bonus for those of us that have added color, a trim can be the perfect remedy to spruce up those highlights and prolong your next color visit a few weeks.
Call us for a consultation or just stop in. (920) 722-2341 We guarantee you will love those long locks.

Making Strides With Hair Connection
By · Comments
Hair Connection partnered with ‘Making Strides Against Breast Cancer’ on October 8, 2011.
This event was held at Memorial Park in Neenah. It was such a positive experience and joyous occasion for men, women and children of the community brought together to honor breast cancer survivors. We all gathered together to support cancer awareness.
The Hair Connection contributed by offering several different hair extensions, clip-ins and feathers for purchase. Our salon professionals did an incredible job using their talent to participants with proceeds benefiting The American Cancer Society. If you were unable to make this event, we still have pink extensions, feathers and clip-ins available. Pink retail is 20% off this month and 10% of all retail proceeds will benefit the Susan G. Komen Foundation.
The smiles and laughter brought individuals and businesses together for a day of fun. ‘Making Strides Against Breast Cancer’ will be a day to remember for all of us at The Hair Connection and for every person and businesses that made this event a success.
We had so much fun and want to continue to keep ‘Making Strides’ in the forefront of the community and have many photos we want to share that will keep the spirit alive.

Lacey Adding Pink Hair Extension

Rachael attaches a pink hair extension. After the extension was attached, it was trimmed to the same length as the hair, and curled or flat ironed to make it match the shape and style of the surrounding hair.

Brooke attaching a hair extension
To top off our day,we were able to sponsor the Neenah Animal Shelter’s Furry Flurry Pet Walk across town at Riverside Park. We donated a large gift basket, which was used in a raffle. This was a walk for pets, and proceeds helped the Neenah Animal Shelter provide food, shelter, medical treatment and forever homes for companion animals in need.
A day of fun for two great causes. We couldn’t ask for anything more!
