10 Pixie Shag Haircuts That'll Convince You to Go Short

Every time I get a trim, I shudder at the thought of losing more than two inches. Whether I like it or not, long hair is my security blanket. Despite that, I still feel total envy for anyone with a pixie shag haircut, you know, that short, cropped style with lots of layers. Not only does it accentuate your facial features but it's also a statement in and of itself.

"What I like best about this haircut is how it frames the face and enhances the cheekbones," hairstylist Arsen Gurgov tells me. And aside from regular salon visits every few weeks to keep the shape of the haircut, it's pretty low-maintenance. "A shaggy pixie is a wash-and-go style," notes Gurgov. "For everyday styling, you can add some texture with a styling cream or pomade, but avoid using too much. It will weigh the hair down and make it look greasy. Less really is more in this case."
