Sculpted And Sophisticated Pixie Haircut With Flair


Added: 22 Jan 2018
If you want to achieve a sophisticated look, this is your hairstyle. It is refined and chic that every girl needs to try out. This Pixie haircut can be worn by women looking for an elegant and sophisticated look. This hairstyle is perfect for highlighting your face, eyes, and lips. Style it up with a zig-zag part for extra flair! A classic Pixie cut with a touch of elegance and flair stands out with its long side-swept bangs and sharp cut around the top shape. It will look amazing on round, square face shapes, thanks to its short layers that frame it nicely. This short hairdo is styled with tapered sides and a slightly longer top to give it a sculpted look, while the back is left stylistically alone. The bangs are swept over to the side to brilliantly soften the face and complete the overall hairstyle. The wispy ends add a touch of elegance to this style, making it an ultimate choice for those looking for a sophisticated haircut. Pixie cuts are gaining popularity, but with the growing popularity of this hairstyle comes the question of how often you should get a trim. While good hair care is essential for this style, it is also important to maintain the silhouette. Trimming every 4-6 weeks will keep your pixie looking sleek and stylish at all times!

step 1

Evenly mist gel spray around the top and sides to create a soft hold style. Gel spray will hold well and will not look wet or weigh the hair down.


step 2

A small radial brush is used on shorter hair types to add more body or in longer hair types to create curl. When selecting a radial brush, always use one with a pure bristle as this will not tear or damage the hair.


step 3

Using the corner of your comb, create a straight part and then place your comb at the hairline and drag it through your hair, crisscrossing from left to right as you go. When you reach your crown, lift the comb up and then split the hair to each side, pulling it down to reveal your zigzag part.


step 4

Use your blow-dryer and your fingers to dry the back of your hair by moving your hair around to allow the heat to pass through it.


step 5

To blow-dry the crown/top sections, take a section of hair no bigger than the diameter of the brush and blow-dry the hair placing the brush under the section of hair. With your blow-dryer in front of the brush, follow the brush in an upwards direction at the roots and an outwards position at the ends for volume and softness. Continue until the section is dry.


step 6

Take a section of your hair from your ear to your temple that is the same diameter as the brush. Place your brush on top of the hair starting at the roots and pull the hair slowly in a backward direction with your blow-dryer following in front. Be sure the section is dry and then repeat the step on a new section of hair directly behind.


step 7

Take a section of your hair from your ear to your temple that is the same diameter as the brush. Place your brush on top of the hair starting at the roots and pull the hair slowly in a backward direction with your blow-dryer following in front. Be sure the section is dry and then repeat the step on a new section of hair directly behind.


step 8

To blow-dry your bangs to the side, clip the back and side sections up, leaving just your bangs out. Place your brush beneath your bangs, holding your hair to the side and remembering to hold the tension between your hair and brush. With your blow-dryer on a low setting, apply heat by starting at the roots and make sure to stretch your hair out to the ends. Repeat until your hair is dry.


step 9

To finish, evenly mist gel spray around the top, sides and back to create a lasting style.


step 10

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.
