Pixie Hair Cut With Gentle Wispy Layers

Added: 01 Dec 2025
This model looks drop dead gorgeous with this black pixie cut that is styled with gentle wispy layers and is side-swept. A pixie with texture, movement, or longer top layers helps balance a square face by adding softness around the edges, making the jawline appear less sharp. The shorter sides with more volume on top draw the eye upward, creating a lengthening effect that beautifully complements square shapes. Pixies open up the face, bringing attention to your eyes, cheekbones, and brows—features that naturally stand out on square faces. Wispy layers, soft bangs, or tousled texture help reduce the appearance of strong, straight facial angles, making the face look more balanced and harmonious. The contrast of short sides with textured top layers gives a chic, stylish look that pairs well with the bold structure of a square face. This style will also work for those with an oval face shape. Once you are done styling your hair, you will need to apply product to keep this formal style in shape throughout the day. You will need to trim your hair every few weeks to keep your pixie cut in shape and ensure your ends stay healthy.

You want to keep your makeup application simple yet elegant to suit the vibe of this hairstyle. Clean lines like a wing liner and well groomed eyebrows is a great start. Do not forget to highlight and contour your face and neck area to create the illusion of an oval face shape and finish off with a nude or pastel lipstick color that suits your skin tone and you are ready to show off your new, pixie cut!
