This stylish haircut is perfect for those who crave the freedom of a short hairstyle without sacrificing the ability to play with different looks. Here, we delve into the reasons why people are choosing the long pixie cut, and offer some inspiration on how to style this fabulous haircut.
Why choose the longer pixie cuts?
1. The perfect balance of length and ease
One of the primary reasons people are drawn to long pixie cuts is that they offer the best of both worlds. This hairstyle maintains some length on the top and sides, giving you more styling options than a traditional short pixie cut, while still offering the easy maintenance of a short hairstyle. It’s perfect for those with busy schedules who want to look effortlessly chic without spending hours in front of the mirror.
2. Flattering on various face shapes
The long pixie cut is incredibly versatile and can be adapted to suit different face shapes. With a skilled stylist, you can customize your long pixie cut to accentuate your best features and create a flattering silhouette. Whether you have a round, oval, square, or heart-shaped face, there’s a long pixie cut that will enhance your unique beauty.
3. Show off your personality
Long pixie cuts allow you to showcase your personality through your hairstyle. The cut can be tailored to suit your individual style, whether you prefer a sleek, sophisticated look or a more textured, messy vibe. You can also experiment with color, highlights, or lowlights to create a truly unique hairstyle that reflects your personal taste.
Styling Tips for Long Pixie Cuts:
1. Play with texture
One of the best ways to style a long pixie cut is to embrace texture. You can achieve a tousled look by using a texturizing spray or sea salt spray and scrunching your hair with your fingers. For a more defined look, use a small amount of hair pomade or wax to separate and shape individual strands.
2. Accessorize
Hair accessories can instantly elevate your long pixie cut, adding a touch of glamour or whimsy. Experiment with headbands, decorative bobby pins, or hair clips to create different looks for different occasions. Don’t be afraid to mix and match accessories to create your own unique style.
3. Go sleek and smooth
For a polished and sophisticated look, use a flat iron to straighten your long pixie cut. Apply a heat protectant spray before using the flat iron, and finish with a shine spray to give your hair a sleek, glossy appearance. This style is perfect for formal events or when you want to make a statement.
4. Add volume
Long pixie cuts can be easily transformed by adding volume. Use a volumizing mousse or root-lifting spray, then blow-dry your hair upside down to create lift at the roots. For even more volume, use a round brush or Velcro rollers to give your hair extra oomph.
