We believe that none of the trending short hairstyles would gain popularity without the help of celebs. After all, it takes a lot of courage for women to opt for an extravagant nixie or pixie cut. But once you’ve seen the trendy look on a few celebrities, it’s easier to find the courage to do it. In the case of Nixie, we owe a lot to Audrey Hepburn. In her time, she presented the version that is now perceived as the classic, i.e. retro version of this haircut. What characterizes this haircut are the short sides, the nape trimmed very short or shaved, and the elongated hair on top. Most of the time, these also go over into a longer pony.

Why is the nixie cut a successful look for spring?
As mentioned, the nixie cut is actually a good, more feminine version of the pixie. We are talking about shortening the longer term here. Namely, the overall name is Nearly Pixie Cut. In short – nixie. The special thing about this haircut is that the longer parts on the top of the head emphasize the look. It definitely makes you look younger and more feminine. This cut also looks fresher, which is precisely why the Nixie Cut is perfect for spring. By the way, it doesn’t matter much if the hair grows out a bit. You don’t have to trim them as often as with the pixie cut.

Nixie with side parting and bangs
The playful handling of the parting and also the different types of bangs were super modern in 2021 and that will remain the case this year. Asymmetrical cuts and fringes on the bangs would also individualize your look in a charming way. Choose from any of these trends to achieve a tailored nixie cut that suits you perfectly. Even the face framing trend would be wonderful to incorporate in some cases.

Modern dyeing techniques and hair colors
Thanks to modern coloring techniques, you can set different color accents in your Nixie haircut. The shorter and longer sections of hair and the contrast between them could be shown to their best advantage. Combining it with modern hair colors like the gray would be another idea how to modernize the nixie.

So how should we best wear this haircut this coming spring?
Depending on how you wear your haircut, it could look both retro and quite modern. For a truly trendy look, let some of the classic execution of this hairstyle go away. Go for waves, fringes and some asymmetrical aspects. The more flexible the selected version is, the more modern it comes across. For women under 25 we would recommend the bolder versions. But the ladies with perfect skin can afford it from 30 or even from 40. In old age, the variants with side bangs and longer bangs, as well as evenly grown hair sections are more recommended.

Jewelry and make-up for the Nixie hairstyle
What particularly strikes us is that the feminine character of the nixie cut is often emphasized by heavy make-up and eye-catching jewelry. Stylish shapes are preferable. Earrings and necklaces must necessarily look noble and expensive. That actually makes the whole appearance much more upscale. The make-up and clothing may be in classic colors and a little more eye-catching than is usually the case in everyday life.
