Pixie cut
A short cut at ear level or above that leaves a little length on top. It opens up the face, eyes and neck. It’s a bold change, but it cuts your morning routine down to a few minutes.

What to tell your stylist
“I’d like a pixie cut. Please keep the sides and nape short and clean, and leave enough length on top and at the front to sweep to the side. The front should frame my face and look slightly tousled rather than perfectly neat.”
Tip: show the result you made in Mane too. A description plus a picture is the clearest brief.
Why choose it
- A few minutes to get ready
- Shows off the eyes and features
- Looks great with bold colors like platinum
Keep in mind
- Needs a trim every 4–6 weeks to keep the shape
- Growing it back takes several months

About Pixie
In a pixie, the sides and nape are kept short while the top and front stay a little longer. That length can be swept to the side like bangs or left messy. A great pixie depends on proportions tailored to your features: the front frames the face and the nape ends in a clean line.
It works best on oval, heart-shaped and diamond faces, because your features are fully on show. Defined cheekbones and a slim neck really stand out. Going from long hair to a pixie is a big step, and growing it back takes months, so seeing it on your own photo first is the smartest move.
Does a pixie cut suit a round face?
A little volume on top and an asymmetric front that falls to one side create a vertical effect on a round face. A flat pixie that spreads to the sides can make the face look wider. Trying it on your own photo shows the difference immediately.
Will I regret going from long hair to a pixie?
Nobody can make that call for you, but seeing the result in advance lowers the risk a lot. Try the pixie on your own photo in Mane, and if you like it, bring the image to your stylist.
How many credits does it take to try Pixie in Mane?
