The pixie cut is back, and it’s perfect for autumn. Possibly one of the most feared hairstyles of them all, get a cut like this right, and you’re onto a true winner. As summer begins to move into autumn, and many of us return to our normal routines, it’s a good time to consider a new chop, and this year the pixie couldn’t be cooler.

Slightly longer and more lived-in than previous iterations of the pixie cut, the new-gen look is best showcased by the likes of Taylor Russell and Emma Corrin, both of whom are looking excellent lately. While Taylor recently switched her slick bob for a textured crop, Emma took to the red carpet at Venice Film Festival with a gamine – and incredibly chic – choppy pixie.

The secret to getting it right in 2024? For starters, it’s key you feel confident in the cut – there is no point getting a pixie if you don’t feel it’s very you. It’s a cut that frames the face and all of its features, so there’s nothing to hide behind. If that’s not for you, opt for something longer.

If it is, the trick to pulling it off lies in a cut that’s tailored to your face shape. Each of our stylists at Hershesons can advise how best to wear them for you and your face shape – anyone can wear them, the cut just has to be right. Details, such as elfin sideburns and different styles of fringe can also make the look. As for styling, you’ll need our Almost Everything Cream to help steer your cut into form each morning.
