Graduated Blonde Pixie Haircut With Wispy Edges


Added: 25 Nov 2010
This graduated Pixie haircut is a modernized version of the ever-popular Pixie cut. It features tapered sides and back with shorter layers towards the top. It is a perfect hairstyle for those who want a short cut without sacrificing their feminine look. The back of this Pixie cut is tapered into the neck with graduating layers cut up to the top and sides to form this short Pixie cut. The graduated layers are wispy around the face giving it a soft and feminine look. It is an excellent style for those with fine hair or who want a softer look. The edges are wispy to maintain a soft edge for a brilliant finish. The graduated Pixie haircut is like the stacked bob or the graduated bob. It is a short and trendy hairstyle that helps to create balance in your look. This style can suit any face shape, but it will work best for round, oval, and heart-shaped faces because of its tapered sides. If you have a round face, consider getting this cut with longer layers on the side and some bangs to frame your lovely face. Celebrities such as Emma Stone and Charlize Theron have recently worn this fashionable hairstyle. Regular trims are needed to keep this short hairstyle in shape.

Apply some wax to your fingertips and then pull through the ends of your hair in a downward motion to achieve a sculptured look. Pinch clumps of hair in different directions for a messier result.


step 2

Using a small amount of wax, work it through the mid-lengths and ends in a downward, pinching motion. For added texture, apply more pinching and more wax.


step 3

Apply wax to the palms of your hands, and then starting at the top-back area, drag your hands forward, flattening your hair down as you go. For a wetter look use more wax.


step 4

Apply wax to your fingertips then drag through your bangs, sweeping the hair to the right as you go. Pinching the ends will create soft texture.


step 5

To finish the look, apply wax to your fingertips, making sure to smooth the wax over all of your fingers, then simply pinch the wax onto the ends of your hair, applying as much or as little as needed.


step 6

Apply some hard wax to your fingertips and then rub it into your roots while lifting your strands for soft volume.


step 7

To finish, apply a minimal amount of hairspray from an arms length distance to the top, sides and back. Take care not to use too much or you will end up with a white, flaky residue which looks like dandruff.
