A platinum pixie cut is an edgy short-length chop with metallic blonde hair color. You can style it in various ways to go with any face shape and customize the hue to match most skin tones.

Stylist Christa McNeely of Cuyahoga Falls, OH shares her ideas on this hair trend. She points out that anything is possible with this look.

The platinum color is adjustable to flatter your skin complexion. And when choosing the cut, just make sure to consider your hair type, face shape, and head structure.

Women with fine hair will benefit more from this blonde pixie.

McNeely explains, “A lightener is used to achieve platinum blonde. This opens up the hair’s cuticle layer and creates an illusion of thickness. The same goes for the pixie—the shorter the hair is, the thicker it’ll look.”

For maintenance, platinum pixie requires salon visits every four weeks. Lightening the hair causes dehydration of strands, so moisturizing them at home is a must. A pigmented shampoo or mask is also suggested to use.

McNeely wants to imply the essence of doing your research through social media. She states, “Look into everything from the stylist you choose to the possible upkeep and styling methods. Not all hairstylists specialize in every type of color and cut, and this is where mistakes can happen.”

This is the look that promises boldness. Photos here show the most inspiring platinum pixie hair ideas worth trying!
