Appointment soon - hair help

[Cupcake85 484]

I’ve been growing out my pixie cut and it’s now naturally wavy (still a pixie cut just longer and no more undercut). I saw some photos of my shorter haircut and now I’ve got the urge to chop it all off again. This photo is my inspiration. I’ve not had the top and fringe quite this short before but have had my undercut as a zero so shaved sides and back isn’t new to me.

Would love to know what you think of the cut?

Pros - easy to style and no bed hair as it’s so short. No fighting my wavy hair as when it’s this short a bit of wax and it sits nicely. I like the style.

Cons - have been trying to grow my hair. Hubby not a fan of any style above the shoulders.

My appointment is coming up in about 4 hours so I need to decide on a style.

oooh im late...what did you choose. I think if you have the facial structure you could pull off the above look but id be tempted to stick it out as you have come this far growing it

I went with a very similar pixie cut. The above pic is fully shaved and I was worried the top getting shaved to a number 8 wouldn’t style like the photo due to my hair type. My hair is very close cropped. The sides and underneath are faded from a number 1 to a 2. Then the rest of the sides are cut short blending down and the top was cut very short with scissors. I’m excited to have a play around with it today. I have very thick hair so this sits so much nicer.

This was my other inspiration pic. We went with this look as felt it would suit my hair type better as well as how I wanted to style it. The only difference is we went shorter through the top.

Amazing, I am sure you look fantastic. I had a friend who had a similar cut and it suited her so well

Good choice. From my experience, pixie cut suits any type of hair but I agree that it looks even better with thick hair. Though there are ways to make it even thicker as mentioned in this article. It also makes your eyes look sharper and brighter. I forgot to mention that silver hair color suits best with this pixie hairstyle.
