Textured Pixie
Piecey chopped layers on top of a short crop, cut so the surface breaks into separate pieces rather than one smooth cap.

Both renders are HairGlam output. In the app the style lands on your photo instead.
Length on top is broken up with point cutting and internal texture, so the ends separate into visible pieces instead of sitting as a solid shape. A matte paste or clay rubbed through dry hair by hand is what makes that separation show; skip it and the cut collapses into a plain short back and sides. Because the texture is already irregular, a few weeks of growth still reads as intentional.
- Suitsround, square, oval face shapes. The broken height on top adds vertical line and the uneven edge blurs the corners of a strong jaw, so width across the cheeks and jaw is offset rather than emphasized.
- Hair typefine, medium density, thick, straight, wavy. Fine hair gains apparent thickness from the piecing, and thick hair needs the internal texture anyway to stop the top sitting as a helmet.
- UpkeepFive to six weeks between cuts, with daily clay or paste on dry hair; without product the texture reads as untidy rather than cut.
- Ask forAsk for deep point cutting through the top section with plenty of internal texture, leaving two to three inches at the front to fall over the forehead.
