#1: Brunette Lixie with Layers
Layers are the magic behind this brunette lixie, perfect for thin hair.

I suggest using a round brush to blow dry. Finish with medium-hold hairspray or texture spray.
#6: Rosy Gold Pixie with Layers
Talking about hairstyles, consider a rosy gold pixie with layers. When you want a pixie cut, consider some key factors. One key factor is your face shape. It will determine the length and profile of your hair around your face, ears, and nape. Another important factor is hair density. It refers to the thickness of your hair. Hair density determines the texturizing and weight removal level needed to ensure movement and avoid the so-called ‘mushroom look.’

A face-framing fringe on a pixie cut is a great way to update your look without sacrificing length. The fringe is cut to emphasize your facial features and elongate your neck. The layers add texture and movement to your hair, while the balayage adds dimension. This style works best for oval or heart-shaped faces and straight or wavy hair textures. To style, blow dry the fringe forward with a round brush to create a smooth finish. Use a texture spray or dry shampoo on the layers and ends for added volume and texture.

When you want your long pixie to appear dimensional, add light brown highlights. The benefit of highlights with a darker base is that the layers will stand out and make your cut pop.

Blow dry your hair with a smoothing cream and a medium round brush for the best results.

#14: Long Layered Pixie Cut for Short Hair
Consider a long layered pixie cut for short hair. Ask your stylist for a layered pixie that has movement and texture. I suggest a disconnected cut if you have medium to thick hair.

#15: Perfectly Layered Long Pixie with Sweeping Fringe
Enjoy the cute short style of a perfectly layered long pixie with a sweeping fringe. Be aware a pixie can be undercut, so clearly convey your desired length to your stylist. I suggest the undercut be left longer if you need clarification on a close cut. This will allow your shape to grow out easily. A short undercut removes a lot of bulk and will make your shape more stylish. Either way, you’ll want the top long and disconnected, with a medium layer added for a piece-y texture.
#16: White Blonde Layered Pixie Bob
A white-blonde layered pixie bob with dark roots is an excellent cut for anyone looking to change the style. It’s your best bet if you want movement or texture while keeping your look short and chic.

#17: Trendy Pixie with an Undercut and Layers

#28: Beautifully Layered Long Pixie
A layered long pixie can suit many hair textures. If you’re considering a short pixie, try a longer version first to see if you want to commit to this for a while.

The popular layered pixie cut consists of a seamless blend of long and short layers. By getting a pixie cut with layers, your hair appears voluminous, texturized, and full of life.
The secret to a stunning layered pixie haircut lies in the styling products used. It can turn into a sleek style or a get-up-and-go look, says Michaela Lanphear, a hairstylist from Mobile, AL. “It’s versatile as it can look cute and poised while having the option to do a messy, lived-in finish,” she says.
When looking for pictures of layered pixie cuts, consider your face shape. Lanphear explains, “Face structure plays a vital role in what angles and shapes flatter you. The goal is to make you feel and look your best!”
It’s significant to seek a proficient hairstylist to create short-length crops. A common mistake most stylists make is not point-cutting the hair for added texture. Most stylists cut directly with texturizing shears, which may cause frizz.
The upkeep of this cut depends on how fast your hair grows. Some ladies must come to the salon every two weeks, whereas others may go every four weeks. If you want more tips on choosing a pixie cut, read our guide for expert advice.
