I believe the answer is:

coiffeur

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'give stylish do?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how one could define the other.

'are you in office' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'you' could be 'u' (commonly used in online communication) and 'u' is located in the answer.
an anagram of 'office' is 'coiffe' which is located in the answer.
A single letter 'r' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'to' is the link.
