A hairstyle you will love this summer. Bixie cut adds lightness and takes years off

Neither bob nor pixie – and yet both. The bixie cut is a haircut that knows exactly what we want: lightness, comfort and a “wow” effect without too much effort. That’s why it’s conquering hair salons and social media. And you? Will you be tempted too?

Imagine that the classic bob and the pixie cut decided to join forces. The result of their alliance is the bixie - a cut that gives a sense of freshness, but does not require a complete abandonment of length. The hair is short, but not extremely, feminine, but with an edge. Most often, it reveals the nape, gently emphasizes the neck and cheekbones, and thanks to the appropriate shading - adds volume where needed.

The Bixie can be styled in a variety of ways: with or without bangs, parted in the middle or on the side, with longer strands around the face or with a jagged back. It works on straight, wavy or curly hair – which means you can adjust it to your style.

The bixie's greatest strength? Its versatility. Whether you have a round, oval or square face, this cut will do the trick. Longer strands at the front subtly cover full cheeks, while the shortened sides and volume at the top of the head optically lengthen the face. In the version with bangs, the bixie can also hide a high forehead or soften sharp features.

It's a hairstyle that not only shapes the face, but also... rejuvenates. Maybe it's because of its lightness and controlled disorder, which makes you look more "casual"? Or maybe because of associations with the 90s, when bixie reigned supreme on the heads of style icons and TV heroines?

Let's be honest: the bixie is not a wash-and-forget cut. But it doesn't require an hour in front of the mirror either. The key is texture—a little volume, a little wave, maybe a little tousled ends. An "artistic mess" effect that looks like a coincidence but isn't.

Texturizing sprays, mousses or pastes will help you style your hair, adding volume and structure. For curly hair, a curl-enhancing cream and a diffuser will work well. And if you have a straight hairdo, turn it into an advantage: smooth out the strands and comb them behind your ear or create a slightly asymmetrical shape. It all depends on your mood and the occasion.

Although the bixie is all the rage on TikTok and Instagram in the summer of 2025 , it's not a passing fad. It's a hairstyle that combines the feminine with the practical. Comfortable, bold, stylish, and... likeable.
