Playful Pixie Haircuts

The playful pixie cut is a popular hairdo that’s making a splash this season! This posh hairstyle is not only easy to maintain but helps keep the hair from sticking to the neck and face. Let’s dive into what makes the pixie cut amazing for summer!  

What is the Difference Between a Pixie and a Bob? 

Pixies and bobs are stylish haircuts that are great for year round wear! Shorter hair is less likely to tangle and requires less maintenance than longer styles. Sometimes longer pixies can be confused with shorter bobs. The main difference between these two hairstyles is that a bob either extends to the chin or rests above the shoulders while a pixie cut stops at the ears.

What Face Shapes Look Good With a Pixie Cut? 

While anyone can wear a pixie, this haircut especially looks great on heart, square, and oval-shaped faces. However, if you have an oblong face shape, find a pixie cut with bangs and a flatter top to balance the facial proportions. Or if you have a round face, opt for a pixie cut with more volume in the crown to help slim down the face.

Textured Pixie Cuts

A textured pixie gets its distinctive look through the use of layers, waves, and curls. You can play around with its look to create a more spiky appearance with shaping creme or customize its appearance with heat tools (if made with heat friendly fiber).
