Q&A for How to Cut a Pixie Cut

Since a pixie cut is so short it takes a while to grow out, but you can help get through the awkward stages with regular trims. For instance, you can keep your hair trimmed around your ears and your neck, and let the hair on the top grow out. Once the top starts growing over your ears, you can transition into a bob, but by keeping the back cut short in the meantime, it won't grow into a mullet.

Anyone can pull off a pixie cut, but they tend to look best on people with long faces or heart-shaped faces.

You should actually plan for donating your hair before you get it cut. First choose an organization that will accept your hair donation. Before you head to the salon, make sure to wash and dry your hair. After you wash your hair, don't use any hair products, such as hairspray, gel, or mousse. Bring the organization's hair-cutting guidelines, a ruler, ponytail holders, and a resealable plastic bag. Have a hairstyle in mind. Then follow the organization's instructions for contacting them after your haircut.

If you cut your hair and it is curly, it will become much curlier once you cut it. If you don't want your hair to be more curly, then maybe you should reconsider cutting it. If you still want to cut it and you're worried about the frizz or "puff," there are many products on the market to help eliminate frizz. You could also invest in a straightening iron. I also suggest that if you cut your hair, maybe avoid getting bangs, since these will be much more difficult to tame.

I suggest looking at pictures on the internet of girls with your face shape with pixie cuts and seeing if it would or would not make you look like a boy. You could also get it cut and play up the femininity with hair clips or bobby pins.

Possibly it is because people are used to seeing men with short hair and woman with long hair and without it, they get freaked out. It's an old-fashioned notion, you can have whatever length hair you like, no matter you gender, age, height, whatever.

Everyone has a different sense of style, it really depends. If you have a very long face shape, really puffy (hard to style puffy), or know you won't look good with it, then it won't look good on you. If you have a very long face, the style may make your face appear even longer. If you have puffy hair, it will be harder to maintain and style in the cut. So, no, it's not for everybody, but for some people it's the best style.

A round face needs something to frame it. Hair makes a great frame whether it's long or short.
