    Pixie cuts scare off boys not men. 💁

      Exactly. In fact I find women with short hair way cuter and more attractive

      @Sienna Leigh I'm a straight girl too and when i got my pixie, my boyfriend adored it. Don't worry, you'll find a man that will go head over heels over you no matter what your haircut is.

    Pros:everything
    Cons: when you wear "boy clothes" and get mistaken for a boy 😂

      Yeah when I get mine cut I’m probably gonna get called a boy a lot even though I have “ you know what 😂 “
      Because I usually do wear boy shorts and boy shirts sooooo.......
      👌🏻 ( I’m so nervous to cut it but excited at the same time 😁)

    I remember getting my pixie cut three months ago and I was so scared to go to school the next day. Surprisingly everyone loved it and some people even suggested cutting their own hair. I kept seeing people looking up pixie cuts at free time at school. It felt so awesome knowing that I inspired people to cut their hair too :D

    • @raquelsmx

    I am in desperate need of comfort. :( Today I had a class, with my entire generation in the university, the teacher was checking attendance and when it was my turn, he looked at me (I have a pixie cut, perhaps a bit shorter than yours), and asked me (in the loudest voice) "What did you cut your hair for?" and I asked "What do you mean with that?", and he just asked again "What did you cut your hair for!?" while shaking his head and continuing with the attendance. I felt so humiliated. Not only did he implied I look like shit, but he also said so in front of my entire generation. I just feel really sad and insecure right now. I love my pixie cut, but being told you look ugly in front of 60 people just felt like too much.

    • @raquelsmx
      @raquelsmx  7 років тому +214

      Hey Marian!
      Fuck him!! For real!! He's not worth your time...
      If you love your pixie, that's absolutely all it matters, I'm sure you look gorgeous!!
      Some men are still stuck in the idea women have to have long hair to be pretty and/or sexy which is complete bollocks! I swear if I was there I would've punched him for you!
      Don't give it another shot! Pixie cuts are the best!! :)

    • @SophieNeveudancer
      @SophieNeveudancer 7 років тому +31

      A girl That lives her life, Thank you so much! And yes, he probably is a lonely old dude, no excuse to be such a terrible person, but yes, at the end it is only hair, long or short. Thanks for your cool words :)

    • @SophieNeveudancer
      @SophieNeveudancer 7 років тому +23

      Thank you Rachel! it means the world to have an answer from you!
      Yes, I love my pixie, as you said in your video, I've never felt more feminine and confident with myself, so this was a huge blow. And most of all it killed me that it was so public, I would have loved it if you had been there to punch him but he isn't worth your time at all. Thank you for your nice words, huge fan of your pixie, and other haircuts, videos and GOSH the make up skills are on point!

    When I was in eighth grade I basically said one day, "Fuck societal norms" And dyed my hair hot pink and chopped it all off out of the blue. I didn't like the specific pixie cut I got because it wasn't right for my facial shape but I will never regret that. I felt like such a bad ass walking in and seeing everyone shock when I got to school. Its a feeling I will never forget. xD

      I had one three years ago and now I got a nape undercut... I want an asymmetrical pixie so much but my husband loves long hair on me. I respect his opinion and I obviously want to please him so I'm slowly convincing him of me being short again... Besides he has long hair lol

      Liz Aya I think it's definitely worth getting him used to it 😬 I used to hate pixie cuts when I was younger and I never understood why a girl would chop all her hair off and now I totally 180'ed that idea and I love pixies and the whole concept!
      PLUS, sometimes a girl just needs to change things up a bit ;) x
      Talia Deen I don't wanna give like horrible advice and get you in trouble ahah but why not surprise them? that's what I did and what I usually do with everything (hair colour, cuts, piercings, tattoos, even pets muahah) and my mum gets really pissed and then eases into it and now she still doesn't love my old pixie or tattoo but she's fine with them and she LOVES her pets and usually loves my fantasy hair colours :p

    I agree about the hair envy. Especially since there are a billion tutorials for long hair, and hardly any for pixies..
    This whole thing that short hair isn't feminine is silliness. Have you SEEN Audrey Hepburn or Marylin Monroe or Elizabeth Taylor? I love my short hair, I love that my boyfriend can really run his fingers through my hair and I don't feel weighed down anymore.

    I've had a pixie cut for 13 months now and ugh lately I've been thinking about growing it out but I'm afraid I'll loose my exclusiveness ?? I know it's dumb my I enjoy not looking like the other girls and since I'm in high school all the girls dress and style their hair similarly and I don't want people to think I'm just like them :( Idk honestly I miss having long hair but at the same time I really like my pixie help

    Thanks for the suggestion! This is extremely helpful!
    I had been thinking about having a pixie cut for like 6 months. Today I got stressed out and I just thought that I wanted to change myself. I just wanted to get the depression out of my head.
    I went to the barbers and got my hair cut. Instead of feeling sad or something like that, I freakin smiled (creepy?).
    And whent it's done, it felt so light and free.

    Everything you said is so true!! You look amazing with the pixie cut. I did it back in July 2015 after having long hair my whole life. I never thought it would suit me, but my stylist said it would. so I went for it. And I love it so much! I've tweaked it over the months and love it even more. but very true the first week I would love it and then get frustrated and feel ugly sometimes. It's crazy how people can get so attached to their hair. and on the plus side my bf as well loves shorter hair so it works out very well.

    • @raquelsmx

    I got a pixie yesterday from having my hair down to my shoulders, this is my third pixie in my life and the first time I did it my hair was down to my waist. I was getting a divorce and it felt SOO freeing. My second time I did it was because I just got a bad haircut lol but this time I did it because of my new job and I’m moving to the coast and it is HOT where I’m moving. Go pixies!!!

  • @melikesonmez4480
    @melikesonmez4480 7 років тому

    I have been looking for to cut my hair that short like yours for a long time now -like one and half year-. One of the reasons I want it so much is that because my hair is curly like yours, and I kinda find it difficult to style so I straighten my hair most of the time and it ends up losing its health day by day. If I have a pixie cut, my hair will look much healtier and cuter I believe. Last time I visited hairdresser he said the hairstyle I wanted to have might not look as good on me because my hair is curly, thick and difficult to style. But after seeing your hair now, I made my mind that I will definitely go for it! Thanks for encouraging.

    I absolutely love my pixie hair!! It’s the shortest I’ve gone so far and yes I cried for a couple of days because the hairdresser went tooo short but guess what? I totally love it now!! Haha. I’d like to add that I have oily skin and hair and have to wash my hair only a couple times a week! It doesn’t get oily except for bangs which I use dry shampoo sometimes. Lastly my Hubby never told me he has always had a thing for girls w short hair so when I cut it off he was very happy and decided to let me in on what he prefers. Which I’d known sooner!! I feel sexy, stylish, feminine and have found a new love for earrings! Thanks for the vid, very cute 🤗

    i just got my pixie cut two days ago and i can definitely relate to many of the things you mentioned! but i do feel more like myself since i always just wore my hair in a ponytail when it was above my shoulder length. ugh, my hair still does what it wants haha! i don't mind it as much sometimes.

    I had a longer pixie cut a few days ago but I had to cut it a lot shorter. Like Anne Hathaway post Les Mis short. It was about Carey Mulligan's length when she filmed the great Gatsby a few days before but when I washed it for the first time in about 6 days, there were still a lot of damaged pieces from before. Well my hair keeps sticking up and I can't get it to lay down right. I have tried some hair oil, and even a very light spritz of hair spray, all the way to wetting the spot so it can dry right. Nothing has worked.
    Can you recommend anything to me? My hair was previously bleached and it sustained a lot of damage. I cut off the dead parts but it's still a bit fragile so I don't want to do much heat styling or use drying hair products.

    I feel the same with the others being in my grill about it. I'm a girl who had super long hair bit below my waist most of my childhood.. And as I got to uni, I thought, what the hell, it's so much more work than I want. I also wanted something different, so I did the pixie. Those 2 comments? I get that all the time. I love my hair as it is though, it truly is empowering.

    I think we have similar hair! I just poked through your channel and found some pictures of you with long hair and it looks like we have similar hair issues. My sensitive scalp is the reason that sealed the deal for me... long hair has more options, but I haven't been doing them because they hurt my scalp! So I'm excited... got my appointment scheduled for my birthday.

    • @raquelsmx
      @raquelsmx  8 років тому

      +Christalein123 Thank you!! There are tons of different pixie cuts so you can really get away even with a high forehead bc you can do a cut with bangs. I too have natural curls and even though the first time around I always straightened it, the second time I got really lazy so I just let it air dry ahah check my recent videos to see how it settles (I kinda brush it down sometimes too so it doesn't get too much "in the air"): ua-cam.com/video/mR1oA2t-q-s/v-deo.html & ua-cam.com/video/K4x7etiinek/v-deo.html.

Its like a Mixed feeling...Sometimes i like it...sometimes i don't....I really wish you could teach me how to apply makeup that goes well with the haircut...I usually apply red lipstick and a black liquid liner....but i think i apply it too much doesn't look natural....So please if u have any idea...can u please help me look more feminine...

    I had a pixie cut until I was about 10. I grew it out and now I am about to graduate college. I really only grew it out so I could do cute hairstyles for prom and other dances. I really want to cut it, but everyone I ask tells me not to. I have long curly red hair and I will be sad to see the curls go, but I always feel more comfortable with my hair in a bun though anyways. I'm really conflicted, any advice?

    Obrigada pelo video!! Muito interessante os pontos todos que referes! Eu já tive o cabelo bastante curto no secundário, mas não tão curto como um pixie cut. Às vezes tenho uma vontade louca de fazer isso, mas o que me assusta mais é que quando depois quiser deixar crescer o cabelo, aquela fase entre tens um corte pixie e tens um corte mais comprido é terrível. É a fase ; mas este cabelo não é carne nem peixe!

    • @raquelsmx
      @raquelsmx  9 років тому

      +Mariana Gonçalves Ahah percebo, eu ia referir isso mas a verdade é que antes de ter cortado assim tão curto passei essa fase e não foi tão má quanto pensava que ia ser - eu ia aparar todos os meses e escadeava sempre um bocadinho coisa e tal, não sei se foi a minha cabeleireira que é boss ahah mas por acaso não me custou muito! :) ganchinhos à Michelle Williams também ajudam sempre (fotonin.com/data_images/out/23/943077-michelle-williams.jpg)
