Some added highlights for texture and dimension and you are looking like a super star:) Just look at Angie, Khris,Dawn and Laura for inspiration!!! All superstars!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-experts-pixie-cuts-and-fine-hair#post-197485 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 15:20:42 +0000 stringy 197485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is very encouraging! At the moment I get a trim every 8 weeks and a colour as necessary. So 5-6 weeks doesn't sound too bad. I had no idea so many people with fine hair had this style - it always looks like thick hair to me.</p> <p>Distinctive brows might be an issue, though - mine are all over the show. I like them, but they aren't my most polished feature :)</p> <p>Has anyone got other photos of people with fine pixie cuts? I'm stalking the profiles of all of you who mentioned having them, but if you've got a preferred hair photo let me know. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-experts-pixie-cuts-and-fine-hair#post-197477 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 15:05:45 +0000 chewyspaghetti 197477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have fine hair and a version of a pixie, as well. I think it really works- and fine, straight hair like mine is not easy for find a style that works well. Like Angie- I don't wear any earrings, and I don't have a particularly feminine style. I think it would work really well for your overall style- your face is very feminine, so no chance of looking like a boy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-experts-pixie-cuts-and-fine-hair#post-197468 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 15:00:08 +0000 Katja 197468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd think fine hair would be the perfect texture for a pixie (but of course I'm not an expert) - I have thick hair, and I got a pixie cut once. It was a disaster - my hair stood up on top and made me look like a scrub brush! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-experts-pixie-cuts-and-fine-hair#post-197455 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 14:46:19 +0000 Angie 197455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a very short pixie cut and fine hair too. It works extremely well - but I do suggest colour. It brings out the texture. I have a very choppy razer cut and the upkeep takes me back every 5-6 weeks. </p> <p>No earrings, distinctive brows and moist lips add to the look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-experts-pixie-cuts-and-fine-hair#post-197453 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 14:44:02 +0000 Angie 197453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a very short pixie cut and fine hair too.

I don't have fine hair, and my hairdresser has to spend about half an hour thinning out my hair. </p> <p>Regarding keeping the cut feminine, I don't particularly like a overly feminine pixie cut and then to go for really short back and sides because it looks more edgy. I don't wear earrings either... but I make sure that my eyebrows are always in good shape. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-experts-pixie-cuts-and-fine-hair#post-197402 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 13:45:25 +0000 stringy 197402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aw, Michelle Williams looks so sweet! That's very encouraging, as is the fact that Dusty and Laura have actual experience with fine hair and a pixie cut. </p> <p>I don't usually wear makeup, but I'd be willing to invest a bit of time in developing a quick routine - a natural-ish lipstick and a bit of eyeliner/mascara could be okay. I'm sure I'd be saving a bit of time on the hair styling anyway!</p> <p>I did wonder about earrings - I don't have pierced ears because in general I don't do pain in order to look good. But for the first time in my life I'm a little bit tempted. I've got the most ridiculously small earlobes though, they just kind of go into my head without the lobe part (they're ever so slightly pointy too). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-experts-pixie-cuts-and-fine-hair#post-197375 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 12:39:21 +0000 bj1111 197375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i think dusty is right. the right cut, like michelle williams, is very girly. plus, i like the juxtaposition of the pixie with a touch of lippie or gloss (or tinted chapstick if that's all you've got) and tomboyish smart casual. very downtown/hipster vibe (unless hipster does not have good connotations for you.)</p> <p>the tomboyish smart casual (feminine fabrics or cut, some drape, bf jacket worn with scrunched sleeves) all read as feminine not masculine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-experts-pixie-cuts-and-fine-hair#post-197370 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 12:24:47 +0000 Dusty 197370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have very fine hair and the pixie cut worked well when I had it. You definitely have to make other things a little more feminine when you have one - earrings really help as does makeup, but the right cut can look really girly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-experts-pixie-cuts-and-fine-hair#post-197365 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 11:56:26 +0000 Laura 197365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The photo Ljubica linked to is the exact photo I brought to my stylist the day I got my pixie cut. </p> <p>My hair is very fine and a pixie cut has been just the thing. If you have the inclination and a stylist who's really good at precision cuts (let me say that I picked a stylist whose work has a wonderful touch of girlishness to it, no matter what the cut. She just has a lovely feminine touch which is so necessary with a pixie cut and ensures that it doesn't veer toward dowdy), I would give it a go. Exciting!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-experts-pixie-cuts-and-fine-hair#post-197364 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 11:46:32 +0000 Ljubica 197364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you'd look exactly like Michelle Williams when she had a pixie.<br /> And I think the hair color she had would suit you perfectly.</p> <p><a href="http://yfrog.com/6zmichellejj" rel="nofollow">http://yfrog.com/6zmichellejj</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-experts-pixie-cuts-and-fine-hair#post-197362 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 11:30:40 +0000 stringy 197362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've got baby-fine hair, and normally I wear it in a layered bob. But lately I've been really drawn to pixie haircuts and think they'd really suit the shape of my face.</p> <p>But will fine hair work in such a short style? My hairdresser says we could make it work somehow, but she's much more open to crazy ideas than I am She says she'd do my colour differently (currently blonde foils) and that I might have to re-think my accessories, etc because it'd change my proportions a little. </p> <p>This photo, and others in the album, show me on a good hair day.<br /> <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com.au/lh/photo/IyaQ9bR9tR6AUSY91UiWhQ?feat=directlink" rel="nofollow">http://picasaweb.google.com.au.....directlink</a></p> <p>This one is a less-good hair day, but is closer on the hair.<br /> <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com.au/lh/photo/RxiNXyiHPc5E8SCw7k84JfXg_nNYdoc1N2yO-WWcUCY?feat=directlink" rel="nofollow">http://picasaweb.google.com.au.....directlink</a></p> <p>Most days I dress in a smart casual style that veers towards tomboyish at the moment (loving the boyfriend jackets with Cons), and I'm not very curvy. Generally I don't mind this, since I know I can always get into a dress and heels whenever I feel like it. But is even shorter hair going to take away one of my few feminine features? </p> <p>So, will a) fine hair and b) tomboy style look cheeky and stylish with a pixie cut? Or will I look like a teenaged boy who clippered his own hair?</p> <p>Someone please tell me if I should give up on this idea or start looking for pics to bring to my hairdresser </p>
