MY CURRENT PIXIE JOURNEY
It’s been a while since I shared anything about my pixie cut…. so here’s a little update! I’ve been feeling that itch to switch things up slightly. I’m only in my second month of playing with a new direction, but last month we decided not to shave the sides tight like I usually do. That tiny change has already made it feel a little softer, but still easy. That’s a must! If my hair gets too complicated, I go back to the basics.
WISPIER, SHAGGIER, AND SOFTER VIBES
Right now, I’m thinking about something a little wispier and shaggier….. still keeping the shape and edge of a pixie, but adding some messy movement. Because my hair is thick and leans on the coarse side, TEXTURE is key! Without it, my hair feels heavy and lifeless. I always tell women that products are a non-negotiable with short hair. It makes all the difference in how it holds throughout the day.
STYLING TIPS AND ADVICE
Just this morning at the gym, I was chatting with a friend who asked me about my style, and how she could replicate it. Hers is longer on top, but I told her she could still create a fresh, modern feel with what she had. By pushing it all back (not slicked), just gently swept away from her face with some volume, would give her something different. This is actually a really elegant and elevated style.
TIME TO LET GO OF TIRED HAIR
Ladies, if you’re feeling stuck with your longer hair, hear me out……………… there are so many feminine, flattering, and current short styles to explore. Let go of what once worked, especially if your hair has changed in texture or health. Midlife doesn’t mean dull and boring hair. It’s a time to do something fun and playful! These three styles here are a great way to keep your long hair, but will absolutely look healthier.
PRODUCTS AND ROUTINE
These are the styling products I’m loving right now, and used in MY REEL. I used another hair paste for years, but my stylist used THIS ONE last time I was in. I loved the way it felt so much better, and have been using it ever since. And for those wondering, I wash my hair about every three days, with purple shampoo and conditioner. That really adds to the texture capabilities as well!
