If youโve been looking for a sign to finally take the plunge and get a Korean pixie cut, this is it.
Grown tired of your long hair and seeking a change? I feel you. We may have rainy days but the heat can still be unbearable sometimes. Nobody likes sticky, icky, sweaty hair anyway!
If youโre daunted by the idea of getting a Korean pixie cut though, this might help you decide better!
What is a pixie cut?
The โtraditionalโ pixie cut is generally short at the back and longer at the top though not by much. The hairstyle also typically has bangs that donโt go past the eyes. Itโs similar to the bowl cut or mushroom hair cut, except itโs a bit shorter at the back.
Is Korean pixie cut good for round face?
As a round face-haver, Iโve found that there are actually just a few cuts we canโt pull off (just a matter of fact, no bragging). So if your face shape is the only thing hindering you from getting this bold chop, I say forget the qualms! You can definitely pull this off โ and if you ever catch yourself on a bad hair day, thereโs nothing a little bit of styling canโt help you pull through.
How can you pull off a pixie cut?
I know it may sound like a cliche and youโre probably bored of hearing it, but itโs really not your face shape or hair texture thatโs gonna make you pull off a pixie cut โ or any other hair cut. Yup, you guessed it. The right attitude and a good dose of confidence are just what you need.
Okay, I know you still want concrete examples so you can get a pretty solid idea of whether or not to go for the Korean pixie cut, so here are the best ones to refer to.
Korean pixie cut styles
Keep it classic
Thereโs nothing quite like a classic. And, yes, hairstyles included. If youโre looking to ease your way into the Korean pixie haircut realm, the safest but no less stylish way to do so is by getting a classic cut. Itโs light and thin at the nape but is a bit voluminous in the middle. Top off the look with curtain bangs (or go shorter if you so desire). You probably wonโt even need a lot of getting used to it because you may have sported this look when you were younger (I know I did). Finish off the new ‘do with a milk tea hair color? Gorgeous!
Edgy pixie
If โpolishedโ isnโt really your style and youโre looking for something thatโs a bit unruly but still looks good go for an edgy pixie. It can still be classified as a wolf cut, but it can pass off as a pixie if you go a bit shorter at the back โ or donโt. This is one of the best ways to get the hang of having short hair if youโre not ready to commit to a super-short style yet.
A โproperโ pixie
A pixie hairstyle has a short back and the bangs donโt (or hardly) touch the eyes. You can go even shorter with this kind of style and get a cool undercut.
