Pixie Cut with Personality

Pixie cut with layering - Side view previous hairstyle next hairstyle
 
This is a timeless pixie cut executed with precision and with plenty of personality. The cut features graduated layers throughout, with shorter lengths at the nape that extend into longer, more textured pieces on top and through the crown.
 
The sides are cut close to the head, creating a sculpted shape that follows the contours of the skull while maintaining enough length to avoid severity. The fringe area is well-crafted, cut into textured sections that can be styled forward for a soft look or swept to the side.
 
The back of this haircut reveals professional layering. Each layer is precisely angled to create lift and shape without bulk. This technique ensures the style grows out gracefully and maintains its structure between hair salon visits. The nape is kept relatively short but not clipper-cut.
 
The hair color is a good example of how to add dimension to shorter hair. The base is a warm, medium brown with highlights in caramel and honey tones, particularly concentrated through the top and fringe sections where they catch the light. This placement of lighter pieces creates the illusion of even more texture and movement, while the darker undertones through the sides and back provide depth and prevent the style from appearing flat.

Styling this cut requires minimal product. Likely just a small amount of texturizing paste or light wax worked through damp hair, then either air-dried or quickly blown dry with finger styling. The look is modern, with individual pieces defined just enough to show the haircut's architecture without appearing overly styled or stiff.
 
The burgundy turtleneck (and the burgundy silk shirt) is a pairing that works wonderfully with this short, structured hairstyle. The richness of the turtleneck color harmonizes with the warm tones in the hair, while its simple lines allow the textures and angles of the pixie cut to remain the focal point.
