7. The “Spur Of The Moment” Pixie
Whether it’s to move on from a break-up or just for a change, we’ve all thought about chopping off our locks. We can all relate to Princess Ann (Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday) when she makes a spur-of-the-moment decision and gets her hair chopped. Fortunately, the pixie cut turns out to be chic and stylish. Many women continue to sport this look to this day after watching that movie.
8. Brown Disconnected Gradual Bob
The unique thing about this bob is that it gets longer in the front abruptly instead of gradually. The top layer at the back is a lighter brown, and it gets darker as you reach the final layer. The layered hair brings a nice contrast and adds dimension to the hairstyle.
9. Layered Pixie
Natalie Portman shaved her hair for V for Vendetta, and they shot it all in one go in an incredibly moving scene. But how do you bounce back from a shaved head? With a chic layered pixie, of course!
10. Slicked Back
A gelled-back pixie cut is perfect for flaunting your cheekbones, jawline, and eyes. If you have a large forehead, let your bangs fall over it and gel the rest of your locks back. Pair this hair look with some soft makeup, and you are good to go.
11. The Wedge Cut
Although we say that fashion is edgier now more than ever, the truth is that uber stylish cuts – like the wedge cut – were around way back in the ‘20s. This A-line cut angle with a deep hairline can take your natural hair to a perfect ten and beyond!
Alternatively, you can also experiment with an asymmetrical wedge cut, similar to Kat Graham, to transform the classic wedge cut look into a modern version.
12. The Messy Pixie
M-E-S-S-Y! That’s what’s turning the world upside down. For years, we’ve heard our parents tell us not to be messy, but now, messy hair is all the rage. Opt for a chic messy pixie – like this one sported by Posh Spice.

Platinum meets pixie in this over-the-top hairstyle. I love that the bangs are longer, so the cut does not look too elvin. It is edgy but sweet at the same time. This hairstyle would be perfect for summer.
14. Soft Blonde Mohawk
Model and actress Agyness Deyn sports the rock chic look like a boss. If you have a grungy personal style, this hairstyle is for you. Opt for a shaved side and sharp, soft ends that add edge and style to this mohawk. Pair it with a leather jacket to look #GOALS!
15. Dark-Rooted Pixie
This blonde and brunette pixie shows us that we can get the best of both worlds. Keeping your roots dark with the added dimension of lighter pieces helps frame your face. Choose a contrasting blonde shade – one that matches your skin tone and undertone – for the rest of your hair. Your stylist can help with choosing the perfect blend.
16. Spiky Faux-hawk
A messy faux-hawk is a great way to spice up your regular pixie. Comb down your sides, and push the center hair up with your fingers and some hair gel. I like how the ends are curved in – they give the hairstyle a subtle devilish appeal.
17. Full Bangs
If you have thick, dark brown hair and brown eyes, you need a full bangs pixie. Not only does it flaunt your hair volume, but it also makes your eye color pop. It is also a simple and chic way to cover a large forehead.
18. Sleek Mohawk Pixie
Ruby Rose looks like a badass with this pixie cut. Comb down the sides and back of your hair with some strong-hold gel. Slick back the front and crown sections of hair and spritz on some hairspray to achieve this bold look.
Addison adds, “This hairstyle puts a modern spin on the traditional Pompadour from the forties and fifties.”
19. Contrast Layers
Contrasting layers look very appealing. They showcase your hair beautifully while adding depth to it. Keep your roots dark and opt for a blonde shade in a similar undertone for the rest of your hair. Style your hair in waves to add texture to it.
Iris is a vlogger and shares her experience of styling her androgynous haircut. She researched what kind of cut she wanted before opting for one. She says, “I wanted which is kind of like eboy but kind of not, and then asked for a lot of layer because I have super thick hair (i).” She further shows how she styles her layers to make it look voluminous.

Who doesn’t like a twist every now and then? Apply some gel to your locks and slick them down. Comb your bangs together, twist them at the end with your finger, and lay the twist flat against your forehead. Looks uber stylish, right?
22. Short Layers
A deep hairline was big back in the early 19th century. It was the inspiration for the graduated bob. I love that this style is coming back with a modern twist. This bob haircut is paired with undercuts and patterns. Amazing!
You can take inspiration from the edgy angled bob style of Halle Berry at the Oscars 2021 with a choppy micro fringe.
23. Gelled-Back Hair
The gelled-back pixie does not have to be flat. Add some lift to your locks with your comb when you are styling it. By adding height to your locks, you can make your face look slender and draw attention to your jawline. You can also add stylish hair accessories to complete this look.
