Bixie – THE trend hairstyle for elegant and self-confident women
What makes the bixie cut different from pixie and bob?
Popular actresses like Meg Ryan and Winona Ryder did it back in the ’90s. They wore super sexy short hairstyles that looked a lot like the trendy bixie. They weren’t called bixies back then, but they’re definitely experiencing a revival under that name now. The new trend definitely doesn’t look retro or old-fashioned. But on the contrary! The hot haircut is a great combination of both hairstyles that are already so popular – a real hit.
The cult 90s were a real pioneer in many things
If you compare a bixie haircut to a bob and pixie, you will find that there are some similarities as well as differences. From the bob, Bixie took the long bangs, sides and front with more top hair. The short back cut in stacked layers is also taken from the iconic bob hairstyles. From the pixie cut, the bixie has inherited the overall look and shape. So basically, you could say that bixie is actually a pixie hairstyle that is just a bit longer. Sort of like Long Pixie, just a little more even and feminine.
It is not for nothing that stars and starlets like to wear the trend hairstyle
How is the bixie cut styled?
Luckily, a bixie hairstyle is pretty versatile. But that’s not the only benefit it has. The haircut is very easy to maintain because such short hair requires much less hair care products. You also spend significantly less time drying. A perfect choice for busy ladies who are always on the go. In addition, the bixie cut always looks good with most coloring techniques such as highlights or color melting.
And a few more practical tips so that your trendy hairstyle always looks chic:
- Visit your hairstylist once every six to eight weeks to keep the overall length of your hair at a reasonable level. Frequency can vary depending on how fast your hair grows.
- Choose the right styling products that will add volume and definition to your haircut.
- Also, wash your hair frequently when you have such a short haircut. Twice a week is usually fine. It prevents the formation of sebum, which can lead to greasy and weighted strands.
By following these simple recommendations, you can always keep your bixie flawless and stylish.
Depending on the natural hair color and skin tone, you can choose the right color nuances
Who suits the bixie cut best?
This haircut can be achieved on women with short, medium or long hair. The bixie cut is particularly flattering on oval and oblong faces, but other face shapes will also accept it well. The bixie is perfect for both thick and thin hair. Only if you’re doing it on thin hair, ask your barber for a nice blow-out to make your mane look more voluminous.

What makeup goes perfectly with the bixie cut?
Choosing the right makeup is a must no matter what haircut you happen to be having. The only advantage that the owners of long curls and waves have on their hair is that they do not have to worry about their makeup being perfect. However, if you’ve cut your hair short, for example through a bixie haircut, your makeup routine will most likely need a few changes.
Your face must always be ideally cleaned first, as a short haircut makes your facial features much more visible. Also, make sure to keep your facial skin smooth and matte. For example, you can replace your usual facial moisturizer with a mattifying one. Another essential step towards your flawless look is applying foundation. To keep your facial skin lighter, avoid applying too much foundation. This can be achieved with a foundation brush.

As for the eyes, the eye makeup should also be minimal. Therefore, we recommend that you switch to a cat eyeliner instead of making up too pronounced a smoky eye. Apply your blush more evenly and not just in one line. Finally, pay attention to your lips. Choose playful lipstick colors to bring out the happy vibe this haircut gives you. Orange-red to pink, plum and fuchsia are just some of the best nuances that go perfectly with a bixie cut.
