How To Pick The Right Pixie Cut

The pixie cut style is coveted but many women who adore the shorter hairstyle. Not only is it modern and edgy, it’s easy to maintain and perfect for summer when it’s super hot. A pixie cut will help you look stylish and keep you cool at the same time! The cut is popular right now and trending with women who are bold and daring. It’s feminine, adorable and chic and will allow you to cut your styling time in half in the morning.

However, pixie cut doesn’t look as good on every face shape. So before you take the plunge and head to your stylist for the short cut, here are some things to consider so that you choose the perfect pixie cut for an ultra-flattering look!

 

 

Know Your Face Shape

Before asking your stylist for a pixie cut, you’ll need to know what kind of face shape you have. This is crucial to looking amazing with such a short haircut. Normally, you wouldn’t really think twice about your face shape with longer styles because they flatter all of them, but that’s not the case when it comes to super short hair like a pixie cut.

 

 

 

Pixie Cuts For Faces That Are Oval

If you have an oval face, you have the best face for a pixie cut so consider yourself lucky! An oval face provides you with the height and specific facial features that make this cut so flattering on you. You can wear your hair in any pixie cut there is and it’ll look amazing on you. If you’d like, you can play wound with different textures and heavy bangs for a perfectly chic look!

 

 

 

Pixie Cuts Faces That Are Round

A round face might not be the best candidate for a pixie cut, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still go super short. You’ll want to instead keep your hair below the chin so that it elongates your face and slims it at the same time. Also, as for volume at the top of your hair so that it makes your face look as if it’s narrower. Ask your stylist for a pixie cut that will minimize how round your face is. Also, ask for angles that’ll slim your face like side-swept bangs.

 

 

 

Pixie Cuts For Faces That Are Heart-Shaped

With heart-shaped faces, you have a high forehead. A pixie cut that takes the emphasis off this feature will really help! You’ll want something that brings out your cheekbones and eyes, so skip anything that has lots of volume on top. You want to make sure the cut provides your head height, since you don’t want it to appear as if it’s a shorter look.

 

 

 

Pixie Cuts For Faces That Are Long

A long face that isn’t quite oval might not be the ideal candidate for a pixie cut. A short bob might be better since a pixie cut will only draw in too much attention on the length of your face. But if you’re really set on the cut, add in a side-part for added balance and width.

 

 

 

Pixie Cuts For Faces That Are Square

To cut down on your square jawline, get a pixie cut with wispy bangs and light layers to soften up the look! Or longer bangs that are side-swept also work best for a square face shape.

 

 

Pixie Cuts For Faces That Are Diamond Shaped

Pixie cuts will add volume and texture to a diamond-shaped face, allowing it to accentuate dainty and feminine facial features. A pixie cut that’s flatter on the top and that has bangs will really bring out your eyes!
