Pixie cuts have long been a staple look for women all over the world. Providing edge and femininity in equal measure, these cropped ‘dos have been donned by some of the biggest, boldest and most daring stars around (we’re looking at you, Twiggy!), proving them to be the ultimate cool-girl choice.

But here at All Things Hair HQ, we know there’s nothing worse than getting a style that’s neither on-trend nor suitable for your face shape and personality. But fret not, as we’ve rounded up 30 celebrities who’ve pulled off the look to perfection, so you can rock the pixie cut of your dreams.

1. Jessie J’s baby pixie

Jessie J selflessly shaved her locks for Comic Relief in 2013 and instantly become our short hair crush. This golden blonde baby pixie is utterly stunning, being both cool and feminine.

2. Miley Cryus’ sweet style

This pixie cut looks super sweet on the former Hannah Montana star. We can’t get enough of Miley’s hair lately, from multi-coloured dreads to her ever changing hue, Miley is certainly one to watch.

3. Charlize Theron’s mini quiff

Now, just because your mane is cut short, that doesn’t mean your styling possibilities are, too. Opt for a mini quiff, like Charlize Theron, by giving your hair a simple and subtle sweep of the fringe.

4. Natalie Portman’s brown pixie

While cropped looks may require more trips to the salon for maintenance, the trade off is that pixie cuts look phenomenal and require minimal styling time in the mornings! Just look at Natalie Portman’s ‘do; simply brushed to the side, the star still looks incredible.

5. Emma Watson’s elfin ‘do

Emma Watson wowed everyone when she revealed her sweet pixie in 2010, calling the decision “the most liberating thing ever”. And since then, she’s been a constant on our short hair radar – it must be magic…

6. Ellen DeGeneres’ signature crop

We can barely remember the last time Ellen was spotted without her signature pixie crop. The natural dark-haired talk show host lightens her tresses blonde and adds layers for more volume.

7. Halsey is pretty in pink

Make your pixie cut really stand out with a bright new hue, like this bold pink shade on singer Halsey. Choose from a host of on trend shades this spring, such as denim, purple or Instagram’s favourite, pretty rainbow designs.

8. Lupita Nyong’o baby ‘fro

For natural-haired ladies, show off your mane with a short baby ‘fro pixie, like Lupita Nyong’o.

Editor’s tip: Keep your hair nourished with Toni&Guy Curl Lock Oil. The non-greasy formula will help to enhance shine – as well as tame frizz – leaving you with a high-shine, glossy finish.

12. Anne Hathaway’s androgynous look

16. Keira Knightley’s sweeping look

If you’re anxious about braving the chop, why not opt for a slightly longer pixie cut like this one on Keira Knightley, rather than making a beeline for a super short style?

17. Sharon Stone’s not-so-basic look

Sharon Stone is always switching between short and long hairdos that we can barely keep up. But without doubt, we absolutely love this long pixie cut style in her classic blonde hue.

21. Agyness Deyn’s ice blonde moment

The English fashion model’s short hair was a huge hit in 2008 and was the reason why many girls opted for a shorter style. And nearly a decade later, this white blonde hairstyle is still as on trend as ever!

22. Dannii Minogue’s dark pixie

Dannii Minogue gradually went shorter over the years, from long dark tresses to a sleek bob, and then to the final stage: a flawless pixie crop with a short side fringe.

23. Tyra Banks’ multi-toned pixie

Going for a multi-toned, feathered finish, like Tyra Banks, will make your pixie cut look more dramatic and edgy when styled.
