Short · Wavy · Medium upkeep
Textured pixie
A short crop that lets natural waves create movement through the top.
The feeling
A closer look
Rather than pressing waves flat, this cut keeps the crown long enough for them to bend. A softly tapered outline makes the top look fuller. The finished shape depends on wave direction and density, so bring a reference and arrive with your usual texture visible.
These generated images are inspiration. A hairdresser can help adapt the shape to your density, growth patterns and preferred routine.

Styling notes
- Scrunch a little lightweight mousse into damp waves.
- Arrange the fringe loosely without repeatedly brushing it straight.
- Air-dry or diffuse gently on low heat, then loosen the top with your fingertips.
Everyday upkeep
- Refresh the outline when the ears or nape start to lose their shape, often after four to six weeks.
- Use less product at first; short waves can become stiff when heavily coated.
