A simple and at the same time chic pixie haircut is an ideal choice for business and serious ladies, pretty and mischievous young beauties, sophisticated and elegant ladies, as well as those of the fair sex who are not afraid of creative ideas and bold experiments with their appearance. Despite the relatively simple technique of execution, pixie has many variations. What are the different types of pixie with bangs? What are the ways to style this haircut? What are the advantages of pixie hair over other types of short haircuts? Let's try to figure it out.
Peculiarities
The pixie structure provides for the presence of short strands in the temporal part and on the back of the head, while a section with elongation remains on the crown. However, it has many variations, since over the years of its existence it has been modified and transformed in accordance with fashion trends. Pixies can be done for short or medium hair lengths.
A step-by-step pixie haircut is very similar to a garcon haircut. If you do not know about the intricacies of performing these hairstyles, then you may well confuse them with each other. However, an experienced craftsman must understand the characteristic distinctive features - a pixie can be recognized by the presence of the so-called "feathers", and the garcon, in turn, is placed on one side.

For pixies, the shape of the bangs is of great importance. If you want to create a lyrical and pretty look to add femininity to your look, then you need to opt for short bangs.A bit of artistic negligence will add an elongated beveled, slightly tousled bangs. The strands reaching the cheekbones will add a piece of elusive flair to the image, and the classic straight line will add sophistication and mystery to any look.

Also, a lot depends on the technique of processing the temporal zone. If a woman needs to hide protruding ears or "soften" rough cheekbones, then the temples can be made elongated. If you are not afraid of bold and creative images, then you can advise you to simply shave off your whiskey or decorate with an unusual pattern. The image will be even more effective if you shave only one temple and lengthen the other. The same can be done with the back of the head - it all depends on your willingness to experiment.

Pixie puts a bright accent on the features of the face, so you will have to be much more meticulous in applying your makeup. Regrown hair will need to be shortened periodically, otherwise the pixie will cease to exist. This haircut does not need special care, but it does not tolerate even a faint shade of oily sheen, so you will have to wash your hair often.
This hairstyle suits any hair. It doesn't matter if you have thin strands or nature has endowed you with thick curls.
However, curly-haired persons should be careful, because it will be very difficult to lay such a pixie.
Pixie suits women with clear expressive features. The hairstyle will ideally border the small features of the face, visually increasing the volume of the lips and making the eye cut wider.
