You may have noticed that we have posted a number of pixie haircuts in the compilation. The pixie is a relatively flexible haircut and can be worn by everyone. It all depend on how your stylist cuts your hair and your bangs. Your face shape plays a role when choosing the most flattering kind of cut. Yes, you can have whatever kind of cut you want, but a few adjustments have to be made to make it custom just for you.

On the topic of hair color, your skin tone plays an important role. Some hair colors will only suit those with warmer tones, while some will suit only cooler tones. For example, the actualy caramel toffee hair color featured on theis article may not suite a person with cool skin tone. They might need one that is lighter, or with a cooler base.

No matter what cut, color, or hairstyle you choose, make sure you have a good stylist. They will save you from a lot of hair faux pas, and trust us, you wouldn’t want any hair faux pas!
