We know that short hair is not easy to style. Pixie hair is one of the most difficult hairstyles to manage. But when it’s done right, this look can be stunning! So, are you up for the challenge? We have inspiring ideas and tips on how to style short hair.
half braided bangs
They are nothing more than small sections of hair partially braided. Their pixie hairstyles look amazing! You can experiment with different braid styles to create this look. Choose from a fishtail braid, French braid, or a simple three-strand braid. The main inspiration idea behind this look is to add a touch of femininity and softness to your pixie hairstyle.
Comb through hair first to remove knots or tangles. If your hair is wavy or curly, you can use a straightener to smooth it out. And keep them in the direction you want with the help of a strong hold hairspray.
Next, take a small section of hair from the front and braid it. Divide one section into three as you would a normal braiding process. and start intersecting them with each other. But leave a few strands of hair while braiding.
Now we’re going to make it into a waterfall braid. So, pull the hair from the top of your head to the top strand of the braid, and then pull that strand into the middle one. Then, thread the bottom thread through the middle one. You will have to keep repeating this process until you reach the end of your braid.
After braiding, secure the end of the braid with a small elastic. And pull a few strands out of the braid for a softer, more natural look.
Rocker Chic Pixie
This is an edgy and fun look! You will need some gel or mousse to get this look. Of course, there is still enough confidence!
Start by applying some gel or mousse to damp hair. And use your fingers to shape the hair into the desired shape. It can be a little messy and wild. But this is exactly the look we want!
Once your hair is styled, you can style it with a blow dryer. Then finish it off with some strong hairspray.
This is the perfect look for girls who want to experiment with pixie hairstyles. It’s also a great way to show off your fun and sassy personality!
French braid from head to tail
We love how this hairstyle looks from the back, but you can easily achieve the same look by first braiding two French braids on each side of the head and joining them together at the back. You’ll love this style too because it keeps your hair out of your face!
For this style you will need:
comb
hairpin
hair elastic
hairspray (optional)
Braid each section of hair until it reaches the nape and secure with a hair tie. Repeat on the other side.
Connect the two back braids with a hair elastic, then pull the braids to loosen them a bit.
Finish styling with a hairspray (optional).
formal hair
If you have an event or special occasion, this is a great way to show off your pixie hairstyle. It’s also a great way to change up your look if you’re tired of wearing your hair up all the time.
For this style:
Start by combing your hair back, away from your face.
Use a small amount of gel or pomade to tame any floaters.
Pull hair into a low ponytail at the nape and secure with a headband.
Wrap the tail of the ponytail around the elastic to form a bun, then secure with bobby pins.
Time to finish the look, but you have a few options: keep the bun as it is, or pull out some face-framing for a looser look. You can add a shiny headband or clips to dress it up!
twist or fake bob
If you want to change up your look but don’t want a big haircut, consider getting your hair into a fake bob. This is a great style for girls with short pixie cuts or who want to try something new.
This is a very easy style to do too!
All you need to do is twist your hair into two low buns, securing each bun with a few bobby pins. For a twist, move a section of hair away from your face. Then, wrap the hair around yourself, tucking the ends in as you go.
Once both sections are twisted, secure each section with a few bobby pins. You can leave some face framing if you want.
If you want to add a little wave or curl, then you can use a curling iron or hot rollers before you start twisting your hair.
Also, if you have longer hair, you can try this high ponytail hairstyle instead of a low bun.
top knot
The top knot is a classic style that looks great no matter your hair length. Plus, it’s a super easy style to do too!
To get something like this:
Start by gathering all the hair to the top of the head and tie it into a ponytail.
Then, take a short section of hair from the ponytail and wrap it around the ponytail, securing with bobby pins.
Finally, twist the remaining hair into a bun and secure with bobby pins.
