How To Gracefully Grow Out A Pixie Cut (Step By Step w Photos) 

Amber Maple yeah I do

This is the second time i got a pixie and i am just thinking to myself, why like why did cut it in the first place??!!

Me its pretty tho bur damn cant deny missing hair :(

Amber Maple Yes, I’m in an endless cycle of stupidity. 😂

MEEE

hahaha sending you my hair growing vibes!

Catalina Barrera Arf I shaved my head in November and I’m so imPATIENT

I cut my hair in Jan and my hair is just horrible I hate my friends for not stopping me lmao

Catalina Barrera omg I shaved my hair on the same day as you 😄

I have buzzed half my head and and have long bangs so I am screwed with growing hair even I got it two weeks ago

Yea i tried that but my hair maybe wasnt long enough, but even so my hairs so straight and kinda thick eveeything slipped out, like hairbands and bobby pins n all yet i couldnt handlr the mullet eitger way so i got a mini undrrcut to tame the bottom while the rest of ky hair was catching up. So ive trimmed the undercut twice now just to keep the bottom short to let the rest grow out , so now i can do a half up half down type thing and im bouta get a blunt bob in 2 months i think. This is i 7 months of of growth lol, how long did it take u? ((:

omg I wish. I tried this but it just looked gross and I used a headband but there were long pieces on the side that curled out and looked weird but I guess this would work on thin hair lol

@@ameliarose2655 when I was in my mullet stage, I just left it alone because nothing was working nor was my hair long enough to do a lot . So I looked ugly for like 5 months 😂😂

Omg thanks this is gonna help me a lot I'm getting mine cut soon :)

Teresa Based on ur profile pic ur hair is adorable!!! Good luck growing it out (or cutting it or whatever u decide to do) ✨

i suggest not cutting it again, or waiting a bit until you decide to because i grew mine out for 7 months and was making great progress until..... i cut it again and i really regret it now that i want to grow it out again after maybe 2-3 months of having another pixie (I had my first for nearly 2 years)

Banapoodle In the same position...Please think about it before you cut it. I made so much progress and growth and was finally feeling confident, but I ruined it all with one impulsive decision.

@Mijita Chula like I said, I'm currently growing out my pixie so I clicked on a video that has how to grow out a pixie in the title. I'm just saying, she looked so good with her pixie in her before pics, it made me miss mine. But I still haven't gone back to the pixie, I'm still growing it out and only cut my hair every once in a while to get rid of the mullet in the back.

im currently growing out my pixie, i cut the mullet my self so that it was the same length as the top of my head, and it LOOKS like a short bob. i then cut bangs a month later...I regret getting a pixie cut in general

Omg army !!! I cut my hair like BTS. So I wanna grow it out 😂

@@FinallyLiaKookies hey , me too

agree!

Same!

This is true!

I'm too ugly

😂😂😂👌 true

I'm a dancer so I have a good taste in fashion and makeup but my hair still takes over the look. It's at an awkward mullet stage and It's really frustrating

I'm planning on getting my hair cut tomorrow, my hair is shoulders length rn and last time I cut it was in September, around the jaw line. I wanted to risk w my hair but don't now whether to just get a jawline length cut again or risk even more and try w something near to a pixie cut (cause its too much all at once lol). I really don't know what to do cause last year I got it cut in layers and I regretted that decision for months, till it had grown enough to get it cut, so mainly my deal is that I hate layers and letting ur pixie cut hair grows involves them :)

Totally forgot about this lol, just in case someone cares, i cut it around the jawline and now its reaching elbows. Imma get a pixie cut after prom so in case i looky bad i dont have tons of pics lmao

Bruh i cut my own hair and it looked like ass 😂

cutting your hair impulsively is the best. I've been trimming my bangs myself for years and in quarantine I've given myself a few actual haircuts especially since my side shaves have grown out now and i needed to even it all out. I'm lucky that my hair is wavy because it makes cutting it less stressful since the ends don't need to perfectly straight

Same

Sammmeee. I really noticed my head shape a lot more and it made me self conscious but thinking of how much healthier my hair will be now is worth it!

i find myself breaking down over how awful i feel i’m seriously just keeping optimistic :-(

Me toooo. I’m at the one year mark of shaving my head bc of a bleach incident 😂😂

I'm going to get a pixie cut before the year ends, for the same reason! Wish me luckkk!!!

I cut mine into a pixie and mine is growing out so be prepared for the awkward stages which is where I am and mine is ringlets so I’m going crazy between cutting and just keep saying no let it grow lol

How’d it go ?

everyone else loves it but i miss my long hair 😢

CJH I’m cutting my almost butt length hair to a pixie and I’m scared.

Dean_Winchesters _Baby_Daddy I did that an it turned out ok so just go with (btw I did mine with NO planing so your already starting off good)

Abby Carpenter I’m sorry you didn’t like it but you tried something new and your hair will grow out in time, I would say at least a year to get to the shoulder depending on how short you got it and how fast your hair grows

bee bee yes I’ve grown to like it better as it’s gotten longer! It’s almost at my chin so it’s going pretty good:)

Abby Carpenter how did you grow it

Jade Beaut hmm I just let it grow hahaha. I did get the back and sides trimmed though so I didn’t have a mullet

Abby Carpenter good! I felt your pain on that, gotten many haircuts I hatedddd but I’ve learned - it’s just hair and it grows back and you find yourself loving your hair again at some point

Amelia Rose when I had long hair I always used to wear so many earrings I HAVE SO MUCH but since I cut a pixie I can’t stand hoops bc I feel so ugly I only can wear little stones or pearls.... and i have 103 lipsticks bc I loved lipstick so much but with the pixie I began to feel uncomfortable with eye Make-up like eyeshadow etc.... now it got better but I can’t leave the house without Make-up for example eyebrows bronzer and hilight bc with the short hair I feel like everyone’s sees me

Omg when she started talking about it I saw your comment kskfjwfk

I'm not going to lie, I didn't even notice the earrings until almost 6 minutes in.

You should really just cut the hair at the outside edges very short like short layers or get a bowl cut if the top is very overgrown and let that grow out as that's what I did once when my hair got cut into this punk cut and I had to get a bowl cut for starting school after a few monthes as my hair was already a little too long for that bowl cut.

Go talk to your stylist. They can recommend a schedule of "shaping trims". I've worn mine in an asymmetrical pixie for several years and when I decided to embrace the "Curly Girl Method" and change my hair style, I did my research and most, if not all, of the "experts" recommend that thinning shears and razors should Never be used on Curly hair. However, the Curly Girl Handbook does recommend a micro-trim to encourage oxygen into the hair shafts. So I went to my stylist and showed her what I was wanting to grow towards (ha ha, pun intended!), and she trimmed just a tad to start shaping it and keep me from looking a hot mess in the interim! Communication is the key! Oh, I've also read, and am using, Jamaican Black Castor seed oil mixed with jojoba oil as a scalp massage and hot oil treatment because it's supposed to encourage growth. Best of luck to you and hang in there! 🤗😎☺

We're literally in the same exact situation aaah

Same😫😫

I started hating mine after a few months. A few tips is to be patient. Hats are a good thing to have. Don't be afraid of trims. When my hair was long enough, I braided it a lot. The braids made me feel beautiful again. It will be a year, but you can have some fun with gels and braids. I hope this helps.

pppotatoes I’m in month 9 of growth. It gets better I swear. Things start shaping up around month 5 and 6.

Same i'm so sad I finally got to shoulder length and then went really short :(

@@obeyfrankie8157 I did the same thing. I spent a year growing it out to my shoulders then I cut it short. It’s so easy short and such a pain to grow out so I have kept it short. I’m sure I’ll grow it again one day.

So trueee

how long did it take you to get to short bob length - like chin length? thats kinda my goal length and im at a pretty standard length

What - I know this is 10 months later but for me, it took 3-4 months to look like a bob. It was a bit over my chin but after I got the mullet part cut off, it looked like a bob

this is a bit late, but i’m currently growing out a buzzcut and i was wondering if you were able to completely avoid the mullet stage by simply trimming the back (and possibly sides)? does that help in avoiding it completely or just prolonging the time until that stage begins? or, did you mean that you just trimmed your hair to manipulate it to grow in a different way? sorry for so many questions!

@@kr-vi2eq Mostly, I just kept the bottom, back edge trimmed. It was pretty effective at keeping it from turning into a mullet. I didn't do much with the sides or top; maybe an occasional trim to keep it looking presentable. I just kept trimming the back until the pixie layering had all grown out into the same length. Hope this helps!

TheTardyOwl VG that does help very much! thank you! :)

SAME

Omg😂 yes it is exactly like Lego men, just had that. Keep cutting around the ears and neck then it grows out better.

Currently growing out a buzz cut too. Good luck!

Me too girl

i got a buzz cut in january and decided i’ll cut it and now i’m in the process of growing my fade out. it’s been two months and i’m dying bc i hate the wya it looks, but this video totally just helped

Same, it took me like 3 months to even get to pixie to begin with. Now I'm pixie. I hate it, I'm looking at growing out vids to motivate myself because I feel so ugly gosh I hate it. I hereby solemnly swear I will never cut it below chin again. Never.

Same.

Lisa Weese I’m growing my out to :)

Yasmim Almeida honestly same????

I'm sending you all my hair growth vibes! Stay with it! You're still beautiful, no matter what!
