Hair products for short pixie Bob hair

6 replies

I had my very long hair cut very short yesterday. Like a long pixie cut (can still tuck behind ears)

What products do I need to style it? It’s all short, thick and flufffy at the back (I think it’s my hair type rather than the cut as she thinned it out plenty!).

Someone save me from the floofiness. It’s all very 80s.

Maybe it needs to be a bit shorter? Short hair is all about the nuance. Can you show us a photo?

I use hair wax. You only need a tiny amount and I just work it all over my hair and then style it into place. I prefer the shinier gel waxes over the matte or clay waxes.

I've just had mine cut short again after a few years of varying length bobs and I like spray wax. I find it much easier than normal wax in a tub as you can get an even distribution and then scrunch and style

Without product my pixie cut looks terrible. I use wax day to day (Schwarzkopf Osis Flexwax or similar)

I have fine hair so sometimes also use this: (not every day as it's expensive and makes my hair slightly stiff). It's great for volume.

Why didn't you ask the stylist who cut it?

Ideal thank you so much! I’ll get this.

The hairdresser styled it lovely but I had to wash it today after a swim and didn’t know how to smooth it out and make it look nice. X
