Hippo Hair Salon Guide - Animal Haircuts, Color and Braids
Learn how to work through Hippo Hair Salon, from choosing an animal client to cutting, coloring, braiding and finishing a party-ready look.

On This Page
Hippo Hair Salon turns a busy town celebration into a series of cute animal makeovers. Each client has a different face, fur shape and styling opportunity, so the best approach is to study the client before selecting tools.
A Reliable Salon Order
- Choose an animal client and inspect the starting look.
- Prepare the hair or fur before cutting.
- Trim around the face, ears and unusual shapes carefully.
- Add color, curls or braids to create the main style.
- Check the full silhouette and finish with an outfit.
The order keeps the makeover readable. Hair care and cutting create the shape; color, braids and clothing complete the celebration look.
Work with the Animal Shape
Animal clients do not all have the same outline. Ears, cheeks and muzzles change where a cut or braid will be most visible. Leave the face clear enough to remain expressive, and use the natural silhouette as part of the design instead of forcing every client into the same hairstyle.
Color and Braids
Color can match the animal's natural fur or create a playful contrast. Choose one main shade before adding extra accents. Braids add structure and can make a simple cut feel more finished, especially when the outfit also has a clear color theme.
Common Mistakes
Using tools before checking the client
Look at the ears, face and fur direction first. A style that works on one animal may crowd another.
Adding too many colors
One dominant color plus a small accent usually looks clearer than a random rainbow.
Forgetting the outfit
The celebration theme continues after the haircut. Choose clothing that supports the finished hairstyle.
