SYNDI MARKUSHA HAIRSTYLIST, EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

Trendy and edgy pixies are short haircuts that showcase bold confidence. It is achieved with longer strands in the front and at the top of the head, and shorter strands on the sides and back.

Carrie Gaumg, a hairstylist in Chicago, Illinois, shares some much-needed information about this haircut. “The Pixie is best for fine, medium to coarse hair with a natural wave or pattern. If you have straight curls, a small textured wave will come in handy,” says Gohmge.

Extra volume is a key ingredient for short hair. She advises, “Start with a root booster or volumizer before blow-drying. Continue styling with a good texturizing spray for more volume and a beautiful look. Finish the style with a texturizing paste or pomade to achieve a parting effect.”

These trendy, edgy pixies require frequent visits to the salon. The ideal interval between haircuts is four to six weeks.
