What Is a Pixie Cut

I'm sure you're thinking to yourself: What is a pixie cut?

A pixie cut, simply put, is a short hairstyle where your hair is cropped in layers precisely done to create a slightly tousled effect.

It can be messy, flirty, and fun! It allows ease of styling for whatever look you desire and helps you to stand out in any room.

Many women desire the look of a pixie cut but don't want to commit to the style of cutting off all their hair.

That is why getting a weave or wig is the perfect solution. While all your natural hair is safe under the installation, you get to rock your new short do with no commitment.

The Pixie Cut Quick Weave

To complete this pixie cut style, you will need two bundles of Private Label Extensions 10in Malaysian Body Wave Bundles.

• First, brush your natural hair into a wrap to create a flat foundation.
• You can also braid your hair down in cornrows for more protection. Then, wrap your hair in cling wrap to protect it from the hair glue. Then apply a flesh-toned wig cap on top of the wrap.
• Now that the base is complete, you're ready to start the installation. Take the first track and measures it around the nape of her neck to determine how much to cut off.
• Then cut off the track, and apply hair glue to the track, then apply the track to her head.
• Complete this process until you reach the top of her head. Be sure to shape this style with your shears and razor comb to shorten pieces that are too long.

Copper Pixie Bowl Cut Wig

For the beautiful copper color, you can use:

• L'Oreal Hicolor for dark hair only in ash-blonde
• Wella Color Tango in Copper
• 20 and 40 volume developers

First, color the bundles with 40 volume developer and L'Oreal Ash Blonde.

To create dimension, you should dye a pre-lightened bundle with Wella Color Tango in Copper.

To construct a pixie cut wig, place an adjustable wig cap on a canvas dome head.

Use a glue gun to glue the tracks to the wig cap.

And use a combination of shears, razor comb, and barbering trimmer to create the bowl-cut look.

Once the cut is complete, straighten the hair with a flat iron to create a sleek look.

How to Cut a Pixie Cut

Cutting your hair into a pixie cut is fairly easy.

When cutting hair, you always want to start off on damp, freshly cleaned hair. It's always easier to start with hair that is somewhat short; however, if your hair is long, I'd recommend seeing a professional hairstylist for a seamless cut.

Using a rattail comb for precise parting, create sections, first with a vertical part right behind your ears.

With your hair pinched in between your index and middle finger, take shears and cut the hair that's out between them.

Cut the sides and the top for a clean pixie cut using the same method but in two different sections. Thin any area if necessary.

Should I Get a Pixie Cut?

While pixie cuts give a boost of confidence and offer a charming, daring look, it's important to consider certain factors that go with the pixie life and if they suit your lifestyle.

Styling a pixie cut to look good requires maintenance. In today's day and age, society is all about trying to stick out and be different, sometimes forgetting to do what works for them individually.

A pixie cut sets the tone and exposes more of you.

If you are looking to show off your face or ready to commit to consistent hair maintenance and proper care besides just looking for a change, then a pixie cut may be for you.
