Short Pixie Hairstyles That Are Easy To Style

The pixie hairstyle has been around forever. I remember when I was a child what we called a pixie is not what a pixie is today. In the 80’s & 90’s a pixie haircut was pretty much the same on everyone. The style was extremely short on the sides and back and layered all over. Bangs were often whispy and the ear area was cut out. The hairstyle has evolved into a trendy style women and men are both sporting.

Short hair has exploded in popularity during the last five years or so and what we now call a pixie is a popular hairstyle. I’ve had short hair off and on for 25 years. I’ll cut it short, grow it out, and cut it again every few years. Honestly, short hairstyles are easier for me to handle living in the south where it’s hot year round. Plus, I love how quick you can style the short pixie. No more 45 minutes of blow-drying. Who has time for that anyway ?

Ladies are always telling me how much they love my hairstyle and almost always say “I wish I could pull off a haircut like that off” or “I’m afraid to cut mine”. Anyone can pull off a short pixie and there is no reason to be scared to try it! Your hair stylist may make some suggestions depending on your face shape to ensure your short pixie cuts looks it’s best, but you can do it.

I had my 1st Pixie hair cut at about 13 and here I am again (at 37), rocking a longer asymmetrical pixie in 2019!

Let’s look at some hairstyles you too may love. Check out these short pixie cuts for some inspo! You’ll find the pixie with long bangs, asymmetrical style (my favorite), long pixie haircut and other styles that are popular.

    Oh god I love pixie cuts, especially when one half of the shade is completely shaved like @foreverpixie, I wish I had the bone structure for it

    Everyone looks great! It sure takes a confident woman to rock a pixie cut! I really like the one that looks like Pink’s haircut. I also like the blond pixie with the feather that almost looks like curls in front and the red head’s pixie

    These are great looks! I love my hair short but it grows so fast that I can’t keep up to the style. Thus, it is once again medium length and often in an updo to beat the summer heat!
