7 Ways to Style a Pixie Cut
1. Deep Side Part
If you’ve read any of our posts for longer hair, you’ll know we love a good side part and they’re great for short hair, too! Adding a deep side part to your short hair is one of the best ways to polish your style. You don’t need to go for the super straight hair look either. Deep side parts are also great for wavy and curly textures.
2. Wavy Side Bangs

If you’ve been hesitant to go short because you have wavy hair we encourage you to give it a shot! We love how elegant this wavy side bangs style looks.

5. Angled Mini ‘Fro
A cute style for naturally curly gals is the angled mini afro. It’s ever so slightly longer on top and tapers down the sides to give a really cool, sleek effect. This cut is also great if you struggle to get your baby hairs to participate since they are shorn shorter they tend to mesh well with the rest of your hair.

Are these curls perfect or what? We love the look of super defined perfect curls on short hair. To get this perfectly curled look, make sure you keep your curls hydrated. Spritz your curls with Love Beauty and Planet Light Hold & Frizz Control Coconut Milk & White Jasmine Light Hold Hair Spray.
