Anytime someone asks me if they should cut their hair I’m like YES!!! I can’t see myself ever having long hair again. A good stylist is very important. If you see someone with a cute cut go ahead and ask where they go! I’ve had people stop me in stores and ask and I’m always happy to let them know because I know how frustrating it can be.
I’ve had short hair for years but went to a pixie cut after watching your videos. The things that held me back were my age (I’m 66) and the shape of my face. I will never let my hair grow out again as long as I’m able to make the trip to the hairdresser! Using the products you recommended and watching you style your hair has been a tremendous help. Thank you so much! (BTW I also utilize your makeup tips.)
Brenda,,,,I had short hair for a long time and then I grew it out....all the way down my back and I am 70....thinking of going pixie short again in July
You inspired me to cut my hair short from waist length grey and white to short pixie then two weeks later I went even shorter with the back clippers. So much cooler in this heat wave we are in and I have super thick,coarse, porous hair.
I am 72 and got a pixie cut much like this. I have platinum silver hair and its very fine. I need to use several hair products but I'm okay with that. Overall it takes less time to style my hair. The style gets so many positive reactions. Love it! Age is just a number.
I love my pixie cut. I’m 72 and love the fact that I can fix my hair in less than 10 minutes! I love the undercut too. Yours always looks amazing! Love all of your videos! Keep them coming!!
I’ve always had shorter hair. Since finding your channel a few years ago I have had a pixie and love it. Finally got an undercut a few months ago and just today at my appointment had her use a #1 for the undercut instead of a 2 because it just grows too fast! My hair is pretty fine and thin but this style works for me. Like you said, I even had someone ask to take a picture the other day so she could show her stylist! (I did give you credit and recommended she look at your channel!) Thank you for all of the wonderful inspiration! 💜🥰☮️
I have very short hair based on your cut. I have had short hair for many years and absolutely love the undercut. Twice I have grown it out to shoulder length and keep going back to the short. And every time I have, I've been told repeatedly that I look younger with the short hair. That's all I needed to hear. My husband also didn't think he would l like the short hair but he loves it. Thank you for your videos and giving me the confidence to go even shorter.
I attended my husband’s Christmas party and of all the women there, I was the only one with a pixie cut, every other woman had long hair. We were over 250 people. I definitely stood out.
Good video, very helpful.im letting my hair grow in post chemo,this will be my second cut since chemo, dealing with chemo curls on top,I'm going on Thursday to my stylist,it has been over a year since she has done my hair,the last time she cut it short when it started falling out, so this will be a happy time,so excited.
I just had my hair recut into your latest style. Even had it colored the same. I have had short hair bleached very light blonde for over 20 years. I let my color grow out four months and then he did highlights.. I have fine hair and my stylist does a lot of texturing. I love it. I have a great stylist as do you. Thank you inspiring us! 💕
Great video Sharalee. During COVID, I decided to stop dyeing my hair dark brown and embrace my salt/pepper gray. I feel that my pixie helped with the transition. Since finding you on TH-cam a few months ago, I have started styling it more and also wearing y makeup again. I’m not sure why I stopped as it makes me feel so much better about myself. Still need to practice with my eyelid overhang and building up the mascara. Thank you for all you do.❤
I loved this, thank you! I appreciate how relatable you are. Consistently well put together in your videos but at the same time sharing your tips so we might feel like we can do the same. You bring girls to a place of calm, dear Sharalee.
I wore my undercut Pixie for over 20 years. I highlighted too, and LOVED it! I could spike it and run out the door. Loved it, but wanted a change and grew it out for the last 2 years. It's almost down to my waist. So, it does grow fast!!! I will probably be cutting again to a Pixie in the Summer. Just throwing my 2 cents in. Love ya, Kimber(Your Austin, Texas Sister in Beauty and Faith)🥰😘👄
Great content, and as a former hairdresser and salon owner, this info should be discussed between the stylist and each client. I always had a consult with the client before any major change whether cut or color. Knowing your client's lifestyle and commitment level as well as hair type is critical! Great video Ms. Sharalee! 😘Roberta
You're exactly right. My stylist ALWAYS sits me down in his chair and says, 'What's going on? Talk to me!' and he LISTENS. Even though he's been doing my hair for 17 years and he knows me and he knows my hair, he always wants to understand WHY and give me the best cut/color/style for what's going on in my life at the time. Thank you for understanding that.
I agree 100% with everything you said regarding a pixie. I also started cutting it shorter and shorter until I had a pixie. It took more time to style my longer hair! I saw a stylist for years and she just didn't get my pixie the way I wanted it and actually came to the hard decision to seek out another stylist and could not be happier. I now have the undercut pixie after showing a pic of your hair. Finally! Lots of compliments I so agree with, and salon visits but I wouldn't change it. There is something about a pixie that gives me confidence as well. I also get a cut every 5-6 weeks. Love your product reviews and thanks for introducing me to Enjoy, love it!!
I have a new pixie cut as of a 4 months ago. At that time I was taking care of my elderly mom out of state. Now I'm back home and searching for a new stylist. Reading yelp reviews are a great help. So my appointment is next Monday. Wish me luck!
Hey Sharalee! Your salon visits have helped me so much with cutting my own hair. I’ve thought about letting it grow but it drives me crazy. Small town stylists apparently don’t know how to do pixie cuts. I dread the day when I can no longer cut it. When I win the Lott I’m flying out to see your stylist!😂 you know I don’t gamble! Great video! I’m sure many questions were answered. Love ya❤
When I met my husband I had short hair but it wasn't a cute hair cut like yours. I sometimes want to go back to my short hair but my husband says I should just keep the length I have and if I do have to get my hair trimmed every three months. I have have had my hair short alot through my life I am 50 years old. You have a great pixie cut . Have a great day 😊💞
I have a pixie it is not a under cut. I stopped coloring mine. I had some highlights put in a couple of times..then I got sick and I couldn't get it cut for about 2-3 months. I started noticing that it was pretty white . I talked to my stylist and we decided to cut it and see how it looked. So now I don't even have the highlights anymore. It's great I love it and it is way cheaper! Thanks for all the great information you share and a honost fact or opinion! ❤
I have had a pixie for about 3 years now . A great stylist is key . I'm still trying to find the perfect one for me . I'm hoping to get some highlight this spring. I get lots of compliments on my hair. Thanks for all your tips and tricks .
Sound advice. I was lucky that I had a very persuasive stylist who kept on insisting on a pixie for me until I just gave in! She actually used your video as inspiration and was right as I love it. I was scared of the clippers but love them now! You are totally right it takes less time, less product and I get so many comments and attention now. If the downside is more pampering trips to the salon then what’s not to like. Thank you for your posts as ever ❤
About 5 or so years ago, I saw your hair on Pinterest and when I clicked on it, it took me to your you tube channel on how to style it. I was impressed. I've been watching you since then thru all your cuts and your make up. I bought your hair products and use them. You got the undercut and so did I. I am 72 and my hair is colored blonde and I have my stylist darken the undercut and my roots. Thanks for your you tube channel.
My husband always loved my long hair ..and if I do say so I have very nice hair. My one friend used to say I has movie star hair ..lol..and then four years ago I got breast cancer and had chemo....gone was all my dark blonde hair and in came my silver gray hair . I vowed not to color it or grow it long . Short is wonderful and my husband LOVES IT so do I . Your videos have been a great help and inspiration.
So funny you said it will stand out in a crowd. That is what helped me decide to go short. I was at a concert and looking around seeing lots of short hair. Loved it! The next week I cut my long hair off. Never looked back.
I'm a hairdresser and I've had a pixie cut for as long as I can remember. Even as a teenager ( I'm now 56 ) I've had various lengths of short hair, if that makes sense. I love my pixie cut, they are a classic now. Plus I believe any age can wear it.
I have very thick hair with a Strong wave. I love Wow dream coat to keep my hair straight. I highlighted my hair last year and let my hair go gray. I get so many compliments on gray my pixie haircut. Love my gray hair. Wish that I went gray sooner. I enjoy your channel. Thanks
I have had 3 hairstyles, long, shoulder length and a micro Bob. I surprisingly, just like you, got more complements on my micro Bob than any other haircut.
I have had my hair cut in a pixie for at least 4 yrs. I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love it this way. I really love the 2 shades you have. Would really love to try it. My hair is fine that’s why I originally had it cut. Love your videos.
Pixie to long, dorothy hammel to long, pixie to long blunt to long and I am a Pixie girl, loving it and will never go through another long hair phase ever again. I love pixie haircuts! It's just sassy & fun.
I have short hair but it’s not cut as a pixie layered cut. I just can’t seem to find a stylist that will cut it right. So I’m taking your video to my new stylist so she will see what I want. The stylist i was using had me coming in every 2 weeks she just never would cut it short enough.. I love your cut. The only thing I will keep is my bangs.
Definitely grows back...That's the beauty of hair! I've also had all lengths, tend go back to pixie. Tho' currently growing in a bit to let natural wave come out. (Seems to be a bit of a trend to natural texture.) I also tend to wash nearly every day. So easy!
As a pixie wearer, loved this video! I get more compliments than ever but I have to admit, they are almost always from other women! However, I enjoy that none the less and haven't once felt the urge to grow it back out to my prior chin length bob. I can part it different ways, spike it, smooth it, lots of different things!
I had a longer pixie cut then took your video to show my hairdresser to have it shorter. I love it and have had awesome comments about my hair. Love watching your videos, awesome work
So helpful! You read my mind!!! Ha! I talked to you a couple of years (maybe more!) about my hesitancy to go for the pixie before I finally dove in feet first! And I LOVE it! Wish I tried it sooner! We’re still tweaking it to reach exactly what my hair needs. Where yours is coarse, mine is fine. It used to be thick, but is thinning some with age. But with plenty of product, I’m getting there! Thanks so much! This a GREAT video!!!
46 here too. Started greying several years ago and about 14 months ago decided I would embrace the grey. My hair was past my chest and so I gradually cut it up and up and now I’m back in a pixie. Every 4 years I grow and shorten my hair. My hair grows fast but I thought the grey would come in faster. My hair was also super dry with the addition of the grey and not coloring anymore… so today I finally decided to color again. Went with my natural brown with some Carmel highlights and my pixie is same as yours only I’m not buzzed but cut over my ears and the back of my head. I get soooo many compliments and yes someone asked to take pics too and even cut her hair just like mine 😂. I love it cause it does look super cute and professional but I always do have to wet it down every morning cause when I wake up It’s in a Mohawk… 😂
I have had very short hair forever. Most recently spoken similar to yours. I think it is most important to find a hairdresser that specializes in short hair! It is much more challenging than long hair.
My oblong pumpkin face does not to a pixie suit. But my hair is thining and looks terrible longer. I have product plumped to the max and my hair looks like a past due mop. Need to chop. Advice?
I had my hair cut in 2016, into a pixie, from below my waist, and I loved it, kept it until 2018, then decided to let it grow out,my husband kept telling me to cut it again, he liked it better, well I kept putting it off, and started getting headaches again, and I did exactly what I thought , I only wore it up on a bun or ball cap or ponytail , just like I had before. Welly husband passed away back in October, and I have decided to get my pixie back, since my husband liked it better. Even though he's gone, I am taking his advice from the grave. I love your channel.
I'm a new subscriber and loving your videos! In all of the styling videos I've watched so far you use a hair dryer. Do you ever air dry? I'm asking because half of the time I can't use styling tools due to arthritis but want to get a pixie cut.
Thanks for this video. My mom always had my hair cut short, except one time. The it was short again. I let it grow shoulder length once. I saw a nurse I worked with have spikey hair. For the last twenty years, I've had it really short. I have it one inch on the top and real short on the sides and back. I'm always going crazy with what product to use.
The right styling products do make a big difference! I'll link a video sharing my top 10 hair products...just ignore the Aussie Instant Freeze Hairspray though as they have changed the formula and it's horrible! Three great alternatives are Bed Head Hard Head, Freeze It (original formula) & Salon Graffix. th-cam.com/video/0fjPC5MJQpQ/w-d-xo.html
Hello Sharalee, I have a new stylist (lost the one I had for 9 years) and I’m giving her a chance to get use to my short kind of thin hair. She’s starting to get the knack with your pixie cut which I want. I even passed on to her your tutorials on your cut at your hairdresser. One thing she has trouble with is the platinum Color. Can you give me the colors your stylist uses to get your platinum. I would appreciate it a lot. Thank you so much for your time and precision on explaining either makeup, hair products etc. Thank you so much!!
The last time I grew my hair out was in 2020 covid broke loose and we were all locked down. I was stunned how fast my very short hair grew. I cancelled my March hair appointment and just hunkered down at home....till November when I couldn't stand it anymore. By then It was down past my shoulders and I had to resort to headbands and barettes to keep it out of my face. I'll never go back to long hair again! Just not for me. Wanted to tell you about a product I use...my hair is also coarse and thick and slightly wavy. I've been using Aveda Brilliance Universal Styling cream since I let my hair go grey. Can't be without it now! Makes my hair silvery and shiny, love it! Thanks for inspiring me to get an undercut pixie and a week ago I got highlights too lol Love it and so does hubby.
So I have long hair and now decided to cut it & turn into a pixie cut. I can't t take care of my long hair anylonger.,finding it to be boring now, always up in a ponytail or messy bun. Since we had lock downs for a couple of years. I grew out my hair to all grey, it's actually my natural black with white & the colour is nice ,but I'm ready for the plunge.p. The pixie look is what I'll be doing, And like you said it'll all grow back I have an appointment with my hairdresser on monday the 20th of march and i'm so looking forward to it. It's weird because I wanna say to her Kelly just chop it all off. I've had enough of it. I want something different. I will look at your facebook pages where you have some photos. Wish me luck
I've had a pixie for the last 10 years. I just added the same highlights like yours and love it even more now! Love your videos for additional styling ideas. 💗💗 Plus everyone tells me I look like Jamie Lee Curtis so why not go with the flow.😂😂
I was looking at some old photos of when I was in my 30s with a pixie. The cut really looked good. I am now in my mid 60s and a bit worried it would look a bit harsh.
Sharalee, you inspired me to go short 6 months ago and now I have my version of a pixie ❣️ My hair is coarse but thin, I have an oval face, I get compliments all the time. My hubby loves it. It’s fun to style too! By the way I LOVE the Enjoy Wax 😊
Hello sweet beautiful friend! Your advice is so great. Yes I think alot more men like pixie cuts. This was an amazing video. Thank you so much for sharing this with us 😍
I found a fabulous hairdresser five years ago (after YEARS of disastrous cuts) and decided to go on the Big Pixie Adventure. She was AMAZED when I asked her to cut my shoulder length hair off so short but she was also thrilled. My fine fair LIMP hair always ended up in a ponytail because it irritated me so much, which meant I always had this SCRAPED look! It looked even worse when age began to eat away at my hairline!! Horrors!! The only way I could get cute hair to frame my face was literally to get it all cut off. It's been a fantastic journey ever since. I've tried all sorts of styles and my hairdresser has always been willing to try everything - within limits because she knows my hair very well and what it can and can't do. I had your fab hairstyle for several years but decided I like my fringe much shorter and spikier because I wear glasses. Because funds are tight, I only get a cut every 8 weeks or so which means a LOT of growth - but this makes it more fun as you get to try out different ways of styling of your hair as it grows out! I'm nearly 60 and feel young, feminine, elegant, cool and stylish with supershort hair. Thank you, Sharalee, for all the styling tips too!! 💖💞💖
I need to get my haircut soon and I do go every 4 weeks. What is your current hair style called? Also, are you wearing fake eyelashes and if you which ones? Your lashes look amazing! ❤😊
I’ve had the pixie for about 7 years now. At times I consider growing it back out but then I remember why I cut it short to begin with. Because it’s very thin and I hated styling it long! I doubt I will ever go back. Plus I get loads of compliments on my pixie!
Yesterday, I finally went as short as your hair with the blue shirt, i Think from 5 years ago. I love all of your styles. But, I have super fine and thin hair. I can still make it work though with all of your videos and help. I am going to really start practicing my makeup with your videos. My face is round and 59. In your video of all your hairstyles, I couldnt believe how your face looks skinnier with your short hair, not rounder like they have always told me. Are you about the same weight or have you lost some from when you had the long hair? I went through almost all of the styles you did, including the perms and high hair. So glad no more perms ever, lol I am really going to have to practice your contouring makeup style. Okay, well all of it! Thanks again for all your videos and giving us the courage to go short. I couldnt do it without you. Your so good at your videos! Oh and now my BFF has your cut too. Yesterday, my stylist told me one of her other clients is bringing her photos of you too. Hugs!
Thanks for all the tips and for sharing! I have a pixie as well but would love to have my stylist add more texture and point cutting. It’s so hard to find someone to do those! Have a blessed day and keep up the great videos! ❤️
Hi Sharalee, I really enjoy your hair videos! I have a question - do you think it is appropriate to suggest to my stylist of many years, to try to use a different technique? I do have a pixie cut, she does an okay job, but she seems to straight cut the hair, does not use point cutting, nor does she use a razor. I've seen videos where both techniques do wonders for a pixie, but I am not sure if I should suggest it to her, don't want to offend her (she is pretty good, but I would like to try something new).
I am good friends with my stylist and she does a great job but my undercut doesn't seem to last the 4 weeks. So, after watching one of Sharlee's videos, I texted my stylist and asked her if I may send her a video. That might not offend your stylist. I think most are willing to learn some new techniques. Or when you get in the chair, pull up a video and say "Hey, what do you think about this type of cut for me?" If she won't change, then you need a new stylist.
Your hair looks great. I had a pixie before but now that I'm older (64), I find that with gravity my face is more square and needs more softness so I keep them a bit longer, just past the ears.
well, if it may grow back, anyhow not always the same, omitting to mention the time it can take, may change the perspectives a little bit: from just an experience, to a nightmare, don't you think? usually admitted around 5 uears to get back a waist length from short.
Agree! I have fine hair and after wearing it long for most of my younger years, I got a short pixie cut about 10 years ago and haven’t looked back. My hair does look thicker short, and while I had to suffer through some not so great cuts, I found a stylist I love. I actually don’t really like messing with my hair so a pixie is perfect for me. Some mornings I can literally just run wet hands through my hair and look presentable.
What products do you use? I just had mine cut in s pixie and the girl cut the right side real short because it wasn’t laying right. Needless to say I found someone I can trust now.
I have a long pixie and this is the second one I find I like the grow out stages because each stage is a different look . I grow it out for a while and my hair grows fast and when I feel like it I just cut it again and my hair stays healthy also.
I have had short hair since forever it seems. I insisted having it in elementary school. I grew it out until I finished school and got married. During my first pregnancy I got it it chopped off again and it’s been short ever since with some length of pixie and that means above my ears and have never regretted it at the age of 78 with a full gray,white head of pixie hair. Always get compliments from strangers wherever I go almost on a daily basis.
I have salt n pepper hair and have had this same cut for three years now and every time I think I want to grow it back I change my mind, I wear it the same ways you do! When it’s long it’s actually boring and a lot more work. Shorter is work too but not so much. I had long blond hair I got tired of coloring, and my daughter sent me a pic of a really short cut and told me I should get it. I sent it to my husband to get his opinion and yes it does matter to me and he said go for it! He freaking loved it and tells me to keep it this way, and very often compliments me. Wish I did this years ago! Ps I’m a hairdresser and barber so my hair was very nice they just know I was tired of it.
Really considering taking the plunge and having my stylist do an undercut. What are the benefits you have found by getting it done this way? I have a very similar style as yours with very heavy, thick hair. 🤦♀️
Thank you I appreciate all the great tips you have and share. I’ve always liked a pixie hair style and it works for me. I have been told it make me look a bit younger and I’m 58, so pixie it is for me lol.
Just do it. If you want to try a short cut, do it. Mine has been everything from an inch on top and shaved back and sides to long and wavy and waist-length. Do it for you, not for what your husband or boyfriend likes. If your guy likes long hair, he can grow his own. I like mine short. You probably will, too.
Hi, I just found you right before my haircut for tomorrow !! You have great hair but how about a women with thinning on the crown? Would a pixie still work or would you see too much scalp? Thanks
Oh yay!! I hope hair day goes well for you!💖 Yes, a pixie can work on thinning hair and can actually make it look a little fuller. Let your stylist know your concerns and they should be able to adjust the length properly in the crown area.
So your hair looks gorgeous. But here’s my question. Your hair does look like it’s got some body and thickness. I have very fine hair and fine hair does not have the body that thicker hair does. I am constantly trying to find a hairdresser that knows how to style and cut fine hair.
Anytime someone asks me if they should cut their hair I’m like YES!!! I can’t see myself ever having long hair again. A good stylist is very important. If you see someone with a cute cut go ahead and ask where they go! I’ve had people stop me in stores and ask and I’m always happy to let them know because I know how frustrating it can be.
I’ve had short hair for years but went to a pixie cut after watching your videos. The things that held me back were my age (I’m 66) and the shape of my face.

I love my pixie cut. I’m 72 and love the fact that I can fix my hair in less than 10 minutes! I love the undercut too. Yours always looks amazing! Love all of your videos! Keep them coming!!
Just got home from hair dresser. I took the plunge and love it!
Yay!!! So happy to hear that😍💗

When I met my husband I had short hair but it wasn't a cute hair cut like yours. I sometimes want to go back to my short hair but my husband says I should just keep the length I have and if I do have to get my hair trimmed every three months. I have have had my hair short alot through my life I am 50 years old. You have a great pixie cut . Have a great day 😊💞
I have a pixie it is not a under cut. I stopped coloring mine. I had some highlights put in a couple of times..then I got sick and I couldn't get it cut for about 2-3 months. I started noticing that it was pretty white . I talked to my stylist and we decided to cut it and see how it looked. So now I don't even have the highlights anymore. It's great I love it and it is way cheaper! Thanks for all the great information you share and a honost fact or opinion! ❤
I quit coloring before I started getting the undercut. The greys are the highlights as my hair is turning more and more grey. I like it.
Yes! I have fine straight hair and an oval face and my stylist does a fabulous job with my pixie.
Your videos are always helpful!!!! I cut my pixie shorter. You gave me the courage to try it and my husband absolutely LOVES it. Thank you ❤️☺️
I have had a pixie for about 3 years now . A great stylist is key . I'm still trying to find the perfect one for me . I'm hoping to get some highlight this spring. I get lots of compliments on my hair. Thanks for all your tips and tricks .
Sound advice. I was lucky that I had a very persuasive stylist who kept on insisting on a pixie for me until I just gave in! She actually used your video as inspiration and was right as I love it. I was scared of the clippers but love them now! You are totally right it takes less time, less product and I get so many comments and attention now. If the downside is more pampering trips to the salon then what’s not to like. Thank you for your posts as ever ❤
About 5 or so years ago, I saw your hair on Pinterest and when I clicked on it, it took me to your you tube channel on how to style it. I was impressed. I've been watching you since then thru all your cuts and your make up. I bought your hair products and use them. You got the undercut and so did I. I am 72 and my hair is colored blonde and I have my stylist darken the undercut and my roots. Thanks for your you tube channel.
My husband always loved my long hair ..and if I do say so I have very nice hair. My one friend used to say I has movie star hair ..lol..and then four years ago I got breast cancer and had chemo....gone was all my dark blonde hair and in came my silver gray hair . I vowed not to color it or grow it long . Short is wonderful and my husband LOVES IT so do I . Your videos have been a great help and inspiration.
So funny you said it will stand out in a crowd. That is what helped me decide to go short. I was at a concert and looking around seeing lots of short hair. Loved it! The next week I cut my long hair off. Never looked back.
Love it!!😍
Watching your videos inspired me to get I pixie, and I love it. Won't go back long. I get so many compliments. Thank you for the encouragement
I'm a hairdresser and I've had a pixie cut for as long as I can remember. Even as a teenager ( I'm now 56 ) I've had various lengths of short hair, if that makes sense.
I love my pixie cut, they are a classic now. Plus I believe any age can wear it.
You have the BEST video content! Thank you and everything was VERY helpful!
I have very thick hair with a Strong wave. I love Wow dream coat to keep my hair straight. I highlighted my hair last year and let my hair go gray. I get so many compliments on gray my pixie haircut. Love my gray hair. Wish that I went gray sooner. I enjoy your channel. Thanks
I have had 3 hairstyles, long, shoulder length and a micro Bob. I surprisingly, just like you, got more complements on my micro Bob than any other haircut.
I have had my hair cut in a pixie for at least 4 yrs. I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love it this way. I really love the 2 shades you have. Would really love to try it. My hair is fine that’s why I originally had it cut. Love your videos.
Pixie to long, dorothy hammel to long, pixie to long blunt to long and I am a Pixie girl, loving it and will never go through another long hair phase ever again. I love pixie haircuts! It's just sassy & fun.
Totally agree!!😘💗
Your style is just perfect for your face shape, and facial features. You are a Lovely lady!
I have short hair but it’s not cut as a pixie layered cut. I just can’t seem to find a stylist that will cut it right. So I’m taking your video to my new stylist so she will see what I want. The stylist i was using had me coming in every 2 weeks she just never would cut it short enough.. I love your cut. The only thing I will keep is my bangs.
Definitely grows back...That's the beauty of hair! I've also had all lengths, tend go back to pixie. Tho' currently growing in a bit to let natural wave come out. (Seems to be a bit of a trend to natural texture.) I also tend to wash nearly every day. So easy!

As a pixie wearer, loved this video! I get more compliments than ever but I have to admit, they are almost always from other women! However, I enjoy that none the less and haven't once felt the urge to grow it back out to my prior chin length bob. I can part it different ways, spike it, smooth it, lots of different things!
My hair has been all lengths and when I get a pixie I love it. I am going back to it this weekend. Getting some highlights too.
I also get so many more compliments on my pixie cut than I ever have on my other hairstyles
I love your pixie. I am happy I was able to recommend some of the changes you have done. Your cut is beautiful.
I have worn a pixie H/C for most of my life. I call it my sass. Good Luck!
I’ve had a pixie on and off for many years. I look better with shorter hair . Wish I had your hair and talent for styling it
I had a longer pixie cut then took your video to show my hairdresser to have it shorter. I love it and have had awesome comments about my hair. Love watching your videos, awesome work
So helpful! You read my mind!!! Ha! I talked to you a couple of years (maybe more!) about my hesitancy to go for the pixie before I finally dove in feet first! And I LOVE it! Wish I tried it sooner! We’re still tweaking it to reach exactly what my hair needs. Where yours is coarse, mine is fine. It used to be thick, but is thinning some with age. But with plenty of product, I’m getting there!
Thanks so much! This a GREAT video!!!
Finding the right stylest is the key to a pixie cut.
46 here too. Started greying several years ago and about 14 months ago decided I would embrace the grey. My hair was past my chest and so I gradually cut it up and up and now I’m back in a pixie. Every 4 years I grow and shorten my hair. My hair grows fast but I thought the grey would come in faster. My hair was also super dry with the addition of the grey and not coloring anymore… so today I finally decided to color again. Went with my natural brown with some Carmel highlights and my pixie is same as yours only I’m not buzzed but cut over my ears and the back of my head. I get soooo many compliments and yes someone asked to take pics too and even cut her hair just like mine 😂. I love it cause it does look super cute and professional but I always do have to wet it down every morning cause when I wake up
It’s in a Mohawk… 😂
Ha ha I can so relate to the morning Mohawk 😂
I have had very short hair forever. Most recently spoken similar to yours. I think it is most important to find a hairdresser that specializes in short hair! It is much more challenging than long hair.
My oblong pumpkin face does not to a pixie suit. But my hair is thining and looks terrible longer. I have product plumped to the max and my hair looks like a past due mop. Need to chop. Advice?
I’ve had a pixie cut for a few years now and love it.
I had my hair cut in 2016, into a pixie, from below my waist, and I loved it, kept it until 2018, then decided to let it grow out,my husband kept telling me to cut it again, he liked it better, well I kept putting it off, and started getting headaches again, and I did exactly what I thought , I only wore it up on a bun or ball cap or ponytail , just like I had before. Welly husband passed away back in October, and I have decided to get my pixie back, since my husband liked it better. Even though he's gone, I am taking his advice from the grave. I love your channel.
I'm a new subscriber and loving your videos! In all of the styling videos I've watched so far you use a hair dryer. Do you ever air dry?
I'm asking because half of the time I can't use styling tools due to arthritis but want to get a pixie cut.
Pixie was best decision I ever made.
Thanks for this video. My mom always had my hair cut short, except one time. The it was short again. I let it grow shoulder length once. I saw a nurse I worked with have spikey hair. For the last twenty years, I've had it really short. I have it one inch on the top and real short on the sides and back. I'm always going crazy with what product to use.
The right styling products do make a big difference! I'll link a video sharing my top 10 hair products...just ignore the Aussie Instant Freeze Hairspray though as they have changed the formula and it's horrible! Three great alternatives are Bed Head Hard Head, Freeze It (original formula) & Salon Graffix.

Hello Sharalee, I have a new stylist (lost the one I had for 9 years) and I’m giving her a chance to get use to my short kind of thin hair. She’s starting to get the knack with your pixie cut which I want. I even passed on to her your tutorials on your cut at your hairdresser. One thing she has trouble with is the platinum Color. Can you give me the colors your stylist uses to get your platinum. I would appreciate it a lot. Thank you so much for your time and precision on explaining either makeup, hair products etc. Thank you so much!!
The last time I grew my hair out was in 2020 covid broke loose and we were all locked down. I was stunned how fast my very short hair grew. I cancelled my March hair appointment and just hunkered down at home....till November when I couldn't stand it anymore. By then It was down past my shoulders and I had to resort to headbands and barettes to keep it out of my face. I'll never go back to long hair again! Just not for me. Wanted to tell you about a product I use...my hair is also coarse and thick and slightly wavy. I've been using Aveda Brilliance Universal Styling cream since I let my hair go grey. Can't be without it now! Makes my hair silvery and shiny, love it! Thanks for inspiring me to get an undercut pixie and a week ago I got highlights too lol Love it and so does hubby.
So I have long hair and now decided to cut it & turn into a pixie cut.
I can't t take care of my long hair anylonger.,finding it to be boring now, always up in a ponytail or messy bun.
Since we had lock downs for a couple of years. I grew out my hair to all grey, it's actually my natural black with white & the colour is nice ,but I'm ready for the plunge.p. The pixie look is what I'll be doing, And like you said it'll all grow back
I have an appointment with my hairdresser on monday the 20th of march and i'm so looking forward to it. It's weird because I wanna say to her Kelly just chop it all off. I've had enough of it. I want something different.
I will look at your facebook pages where you have some photos. Wish me luck
I love the lip color you're wearing. Can you tell me the brand and color? Thanks so much.
I've had a pixie for the last 10 years. I just added the same highlights like yours and love it even more now! Love your videos for additional styling ideas. 💗💗
Plus everyone tells me I look like Jamie Lee Curtis so why not go with the flow.😂😂
That's awesome!! Love it😍💗
I was looking at some old photos of when I was in my 30s with a pixie. The cut really looked good. I am now in my mid 60s and a bit worried it would look a bit harsh.
I had my super long hair cropped super short last week. I don't regret anything except waiting so long. Now I'm actually looking forward to summer
Sharalee, you inspired me to go short 6 months ago and now I have my version of a pixie ❣️ My hair is coarse but thin, I have an oval face, I get compliments all the time. My hubby loves it. It’s fun to style too! By the way I LOVE the Enjoy Wax 😊
Wahoo!! So happy to hear that!💗😘
@@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates thank you 😊
Hello sweet beautiful friend! Your advice is so great. Yes I think alot more men like pixie cuts. This was an amazing video. Thank you so much for sharing this with us 😍
I found a fabulous hairdresser five years ago (after YEARS of disastrous cuts) and decided to go on the Big Pixie Adventure. She was AMAZED when I asked her to cut my shoulder length hair off so short but she was also thrilled. My fine fair LIMP hair always ended up in a ponytail because it irritated me so much, which meant I always had this SCRAPED look! It looked even worse when age began to eat away at my hairline!! Horrors!! The only way I could get cute hair to frame my face was literally to get it all cut off. It's been a fantastic journey ever since. I've tried all sorts of styles and my hairdresser has always been willing to try everything - within limits because she knows my hair very well and what it can and can't do. I had your fab hairstyle for several years but decided I like my fringe much shorter and spikier because I wear glasses. Because funds are tight, I only get a cut every 8 weeks or so which means a LOT of growth - but this makes it more fun as you get to try out different ways of styling of your hair as it grows out! I'm nearly 60 and feel young, feminine, elegant, cool and stylish with supershort hair. Thank you, Sharalee, for all the styling tips too!! 💖💞💖
Hi. You wouldn’t be in Dallas, Tx would you 😊. You would think in this big city I could find one.
@@janehuey6960 No, sadly, I'm miles away in London! It took me over 30 years to find a good hairdresser. Good luck with your search!
You are just gorgeous no matter how you wear your hair !! I absolutely love your channel !! ❤️
Awww, you are the sweetest🥰 I'm so glad you are enjoying my channel!!♥️
Great video!! You know so much about everything. I enjoy learning from you.
I need to get my haircut soon and I do go every 4 weeks. What is your current hair style called? Also, are you wearing fake eyelashes and if you which ones? Your lashes look amazing! ❤😊
I’ve had the pixie for about 7 years now. At times I consider growing it back out but then I remember why I cut it short to begin with. Because it’s very thin and I hated styling it long! I doubt I will ever go back. Plus I get loads of compliments on my pixie!
Yesterday, I finally went as short as your hair with the blue shirt, i Think from 5 years ago. I love all of your styles. But, I have super fine and thin hair. I can still make it work though with all of your videos and help. I am going to really start practicing my makeup with your videos. My face is round and 59. In your video of all your hairstyles, I couldnt believe how your face looks skinnier with your short hair, not rounder like they have always told me. Are you about the same weight or have you lost some from when you had the long hair? I went through almost all of the styles you did, including the perms and high hair. So glad no more perms ever, lol I am really going to have to practice your contouring makeup style. Okay, well all of it! Thanks again for all your videos and giving us the courage to go short. I couldnt do it without you. Your so good at your videos! Oh and now my BFF has your cut too. Yesterday, my stylist told me one of her other clients is bringing her photos of you too. Hugs!
Thanks for all the tips and for sharing! I have a pixie as well but would love to have my stylist add more texture and point cutting. It’s so hard to find someone to do those! Have a blessed day and keep up the great videos! ❤️
Hi Sharalee, I really enjoy your hair videos! I have a question - do you think it is appropriate to suggest to my stylist of many years, to try to use a different technique? I do have a pixie cut, she does an okay job, but she seems to straight cut the hair, does not use point cutting, nor does she use a razor. I've seen videos where both techniques do wonders for a pixie, but I am not sure if I should suggest it to her, don't want to offend her (she is pretty good, but I would like to try something new).
I am good friends with my stylist and she does a great job but my undercut doesn't seem to last the 4 weeks. So, after watching one of Sharlee's videos, I texted my stylist and asked her if I may send her a video. That might not offend your stylist. I think most are willing to learn some new techniques. Or when you get in the chair, pull up a video and say "Hey, what do you think about this type of cut for me?" If she won't change, then you need a new stylist.
Had a pixie cut the last 20 years I love my hair short it's so easy
Would not change it at all
Your hair always looks amazing Sharalee! I’m getting cut tomorrow, like yours! Wish me luck
Oh yay!! Hope you LOVE your new style!💗
Your hair looks great. I had a pixie before but now that I'm older (64), I find that with gravity my face is more square and needs more softness so I keep them a bit longer, just past the ears.
well, if it may grow back, anyhow not always the same, omitting to mention the time it can take, may change the perspectives a little bit: from just an experience, to a nightmare, don't you think? usually admitted around 5 uears to get back a waist length from short.
Agree! I have fine hair and after wearing it long for most of my younger years, I got a short pixie cut about 10 years ago and haven’t looked back. My hair does look thicker short, and while I had to suffer through some not so great cuts, I found a stylist I love. I actually don’t really like messing with my hair so a pixie is perfect for me. Some mornings I can literally just run wet hands through my hair and look presentable.
Hi I have been trying to get a pixie, s to still not today but good . . Fine hair, could we share haircut designer job 😢 maybel contact info?
The sounds like what looking for 😂🥰
Love your channel. You are so beautiful and blessed. Love you, your hair, your makeup, your advice!
You are the sweetest♥️ Thank you so much!
I’m thinking of growing my grey out, so I may go short to make the transition time go faster.
I have a pixie cut plus a under cut as well. I go every 5 weeks and I get my hair color the same time to. I love it Thank you for sharing. 😊❤
What products do you use? I just had mine cut in s pixie and the girl cut the right side real short because it wasn’t laying right. Needless to say I found someone I can trust now.
I have a long pixie and this is the second one I find I like the grow out stages because each stage is a different look . I grow it out for a while and my hair grows fast and when I feel like it I just cut it again and my hair stays healthy also.
Yes the tips you gave were perfect. Thank you
I have had short hair since forever it seems. I insisted having it in elementary school. I grew it out until I finished school and got married. During my first pregnancy I got it it chopped off again and it’s been short ever since with some length of pixie and that means above my ears and have never regretted it at the age of 78 with a full gray,white head of pixie hair. Always get compliments from strangers wherever I go almost on a daily basis.
Definitivamente el pixie es lo mejor.....
I have salt n pepper hair and have had this same cut for three years now and every time I think I want to grow it back I change my mind, I wear it the same ways you do! When it’s long it’s actually boring and a lot more work. Shorter is work too but not so much. I had long blond hair I got tired of coloring, and my daughter sent me a pic of a really short cut and told me I should get it. I sent it to my husband to get his opinion and yes it does matter to me and he said go for it! He freaking loved it and tells me to keep it this way, and very often compliments me. Wish I did this years ago! Ps I’m a hairdresser and barber so my hair was very nice they just know I was tired of it.
My friends & family, especially my grown sons, love my short pixie, they all say it is "sassy, just like you"! Lol!
Cut my hair 30 years ago, and never went back. Wish I could be a blonde like our beautiful SHARALEE!
I would love to find a hair dresser that could do it but can’t find one, love your hair
Thank you. What color toner are you using. Or are you just using purple shampoo. Do you use a product for a shine.
I love my short hair. I love yours too!
I enjoyed the piano music! Very soothing!
I absolutely love your haircut! wish I had your hair texture. My hair is curly/wavy so If I get a pixie cut it wouldn't look as good.
Thank you so much!!😍♥️
Really considering taking the plunge and having my stylist do an undercut. What are the benefits you have found by getting it done this way? I have a very similar style as yours with very heavy, thick hair. 🤦♀️
Which hair spray did you end up recommending to replace your other one? I can’t seem to find the video for it.
You are incredible in your own way.💕
Awww, thank you🥰♥️
Thank you I appreciate all the great tips you have and share. I’ve always liked a pixie hair style and it works for me.
I have been told it make me look a bit younger and I’m 58, so pixie it is for me lol.
I love you have but I love those pictures in the background. Where did you get those? TKS
Just do it. If you want to try a short cut, do it. Mine has been everything from an inch on top and shaved back and sides to long and wavy and waist-length. Do it for you, not for what your husband or boyfriend likes. If your guy likes long hair, he can grow his own. I like mine short. You probably will, too.
P.S
I am SO glad I found your page. Thank you for being sooooo helpful.
Hi, I just found you right before my haircut for tomorrow !! You have great hair but how about a women with thinning on the crown?
Would a pixie still work or would you see too much scalp?
Thanks
Oh yay!! I hope hair day goes well for you!💖 Yes, a pixie can work on thinning hair and can actually make it look a little fuller. Let your stylist know your concerns and they should be able to adjust the length properly in the crown area.
So your hair looks gorgeous. But here’s my question. Your hair does look like it’s got some body and thickness. I have very fine hair and fine hair does not have the body that thicker hair does. I am constantly trying to find a hairdresser that knows how to style and cut fine hair.
