Pixie cuts are still as popular as ever and the range of fresh, colorful ways to wear short-hair increases every year!  Rainbow colors are a huge trend and the addition of unusual, new shades like silver and dove-gray has truly freshened up blonde pixies.  Yellow hair with orange balayage sounds garish, but when you see the image below, you’ll know how soft and golden it can look.  Brunettes look terrific with intense colors, such as teal, magenta, electric-blue, silver and forest-green. So read on and discover how to add trendy color to your pixie cut!

Trendy touch of pink

This trendy model certainly knows how to present herself with a little razzle-dazzle!  Her edgy platinum-blonde pixie cut has clipped short sides and a cute forward styled top section ending in piece-y bangs.  And to finish off this modern look, there’s a hint of pink at the roots and on one side!

Pretty purple patch

This contemporary asymmetrical pixie-bob is perfect for balancing a wide face-shape.  One side is strictly pixie with a wispy side-point.  But the other side is beautifully waved, with a lovely purple splash that adds even more interest to this flattering style!

Cheeky golden-yellow with orange lowlights

This fantastic hair color gets full-marks for bringing out the lovely golden tones in the model’s complexion. Yellow-blonde color gains even more texture and color-depth from the high-fashion, orange lowlights!  And the casual over-long bangs are lightly separated to soften the line.

Razzle-dazzle pink & gray color design

I love this futuristic hair color design with pink-white-blonde hair.  It makes a lovely backdrop to the blended silver-gray and magenta balayage.  The lines of this straight, but fluid and curved, pixie are beautifully realized by the 3-D layered color scheme!

Soft dove-gray roots & platinum-blonde

Platinum-blonde is a cool shade that suits this model’s warm skin-tone and cornflower blue eyes perfectly.  Instead of the usual black roots, this cute pixie has a softer vibe thanks to dove-gray roots.  Changing your root-color is an easy way to bring your cut right up-to-date in a face-flattering way!

Edgy ‘light & shade’ pixie for heart face

With a boy-cut back and a cute asymmetrical point above a retro-1970’s single strand, this pixie looks interesting instantly! The forward styling from a spiky crown veers to the side, with side-styled bangs cutting a broad forehead down to size.  The neutral base is full of light and shadow from blonde highlights and dark tips.

Outrageous pinky-red on boy-quiff

This is another boy-cut pixie with the Tin-Tin quiff that’s a very popular male hairstyle right now.  With height over the forehead, this style is good for adding length to round face shapes. And why not add a playful vibe to your image, with this fabulous red color!

Chic silver hair over black roots

These four fab images show exactly how to cut and style this super-trendy, silver pixie.  The short-clipped back and sides create a visually receding black border that makes the silver layers look even brighter.  Finished with touches of purple and green gloss, it’s a fabulous new pixie idea!

Warm dual-blonde on brunette bangs

I love the extra texture, movement and warmth of this smart haircut.  It all comes from dual-blonde balayage in the side-swept bangs.  Blonde blended with dark-brown creates an optical illusion making hair appear thicker.  And medium-blonde next to the face softens and flatters most skin-tones!

Funky teal, gray & magenta on geo cut

This fashion-forward look transforms the idea of a plain, dark pixie cut.  The clipped border makes an edgy statement in tune with the geometric theme, but the side-swept bangs soften a long face.  The special feature is classy teal, gray and magenta jewel colors that add lots of style!

Amazing teal color-splash on sharp-tip pixie

This trendy pixie has beautifully judged, disconnected layers creating an edgy, extra layer on top of the short bangs!  The sides are lightly asymmetrical, but the main focus is the breath-taking splash of teal balayage peeping through the black layers.

Fabulous forest-green highlight on black bixie

This sleek, pixie-bob has plenty of bouncy volume from thick hair, creating an attractive curved silhouette.  For creative contrast, one side has a sharply textured point accentuating the forward movement.  The full bangs are side-swept revealing an intense splash of gorgeous forest-green!

Rich russet-red elfin-cut on thick hair

This cute layered pixie has feathery texture at the side creating a casual, face-softening line framing the eyes.  This auburn shade is a very flattering choice for women who need a little more color definition to warm up their pale skin-tones.

Rippled gray texture with green & purple gloss

This stylish pixie cut has lots of trendy, new features making it a real cutting-edge design.  All-over gray is brushed into textured layers with feathery tips softening the face.  The swept-over top has even more rippled texture and movement topped-off by silver on pretty bangs that gleam with green and purple gloss!

Cute coral-pink & pretty lavender

Liven up your light-brown hair with coral-pink blonde on top and lavender accentuating the asymmetrical layers.  The roots have been left in a natural brown shade creating a dark ‘shadow’ around the nape, which emphasizes the angle of the stacked layers.

Pure white radical razored pixie

This white shaved short-back-and-sides is perfect for showing off dainty features.  It’s an extreme look with a confident vibe decorated by ‘fluffy’ feathery volume behind the crown and strongly textured forward movement to extra-long bangs!

Elegant fauxhawk in silver-lavender blonde

This is an inspired fusion combining elegance with punky short-clipped sides!  The Mohawk shape leaves long sections on top and at the back, but this is the first Mohawk I’ve seen with such a classy vibe.  Beautiful lavender-silver-blonde turns a ‘street’ look from the punk-era into an alluring modern pixie!

Outstanding orange on textured quiff

The perfectly straight side parting on a gray-blonde base shows how carefully this fresh look has been colored and styled.  The top is styled for volume and height above the forehead, making the face appear longer and slimmer.  And bringing the whole design to life are the two-tone, orange highlights along the wonderful, wavy movement!

Hot-pink sixties geo pixie

This hip, stacked-back pixie is an authentic sixties shape, with a swept-across top and hair divided to show the ears.  The dark-rimmed spectacles are also vintage.  However, the ultra-stylish cut has a totally modern twist from the gorgeous, hot-pink color!

Cute faux-hawk quiff on neutral-blonde hair

This is just one of many cute ways you can vary the style of a pixie cut.  The fauxhawk on top has forward movement that’s combed up into a curvy quiff above the forehead.  Neutral blonde with dark roots adds 3-D dimension and accentuates the lovely texture of a highly fashionable cut.

Sleek silver side-swept pixie with brunette border

This distinctive and ultra-modern look is also a highly chic use of the latest hair color trends.  The asymmetrical cut has a swept-over top and side-swept fringe delicately highlighted in lovely silver-blonde. To finish the shape perfectly, the line is neatly accentuated by dark roots in a curved border!

Trendy tousled brunette pixie with piece-y bangs

Straight hair doesn’t have to be curled to get the height you need on top.  This style is heavily layered and styled forwards from the crown into an attractive tousled section hanging lightly over the bangs.  The side-swept bangs have been defined to break up the line above the black spectacle frames.

Remember that hair has to be bleached before you can add the fantastic range of trendy colors currently available.  So it will make your hair thicker, which is good for anyone with medium/fine/thin hair.  But you should treat colored hair to lots of extra conditioning to ensure it stays glossy and soft!
