How to do Highlights on a Short Pixie Haircut (easy technique!) with BONUS Rose Gold color formula!

Have you ever started doing a highlight on a short pixie cut and start getting super nervous because the hair won't cooperate or the foils are slipping? Or have you even turned down a highlight service on a pixie because you were too intimidated to do it?
I created this video because I used to feel like this too! I was so scared that the highlights would bleed or look like leopard spots so I would either turn down the service all together or have so much anxiety throughout the entire service.
Once I started using this EASY technique, I've never been intimidated to highlight pixie hair again!

I applied this technique today on a client who’s hair is shorter than the client in the video.. I applied a clear gloss to the hair so I could have control over the short hair.. very helpful.. I watched this video over and over again till I felt comfortable with the application.. I have been a hairdresser since 87.. and foiling real short hair gives me anxiety.. she loved it and I was happy with the results!! Thank you Jamie for your amazing videos.. always helpful..🥰😁

[@emmagoulter3122]

This pixie foil technique is SO HELPFUL!

[@ndc427]

I did this on a new client today (the foil technique) and did a copper overlay. She texted me when she got home and said “it was my first time with you and i trust you completely!” She rebooked and I now have a new regular client! Thanks for sharing! Obsessed w your videos❤️

[@pollywy8345]

I’ve been a stylist here in the Uk for over 30 years, and I love watching you and your enthusiasm for the job. Beautiful! ❤️

[@JamieDana]

Thanks so much! I'm thrilled to hear you loved this.

[@nancywhipple480]

Agree! Done hair for over 50 years and you are very educational. I’ve cut foils in half for short hair many years. Glad to see another stylist do this. Love how you place foils /hair in the reverse Mohawk section. Great work Jamie👍🏻

[@LailaBratteli7]

I am learning to be a hairdresser, But I think I am learning more from you more than my teacher. Thank you!

[@KerryMack4]

Great video, thank you. This is THE best foil technique for short hair I have seen. I love the way you explain your technique in detail as you go through your process.

[@user-ee4dv2hj7r]

Such a wonderful idea for pixie hair color design. Basic, classic , easy and useful. Thanks for sharing!

[@memyself9372]

First of all, you are so generous to share so much! There are so many options in the artistry of hair that it can be very intimidating and you make it so much less intimidating. Thank you! I have been looking for a tutorial on the reverse of this process. If client is already super short like this one and wants to go darker around the perimeter but blended not dark up to the length, then bam 5 level changes. Also, since so many are going natural gray, I'm thinking perhaps on short hair if I'd like to offer just a darker fringe shadow so their hair doesn't just say "old gray". And require tons of maintenance but give gray haired an option for just a little bit of something more fun than 'old grandma' choices.

[@michellec2447]

You have a presence like a breath of fresh air and I love how positive you are. I also love that you encourage creativity and provide customary services based on customer anatomy and preference. Hair and nails isn’t a one size fits all and I like that we can make things our own by customizing and trying new things!!

[@Diamond88keyz]

She is awesome. I love the way you complimented her too.

[@JamieDana]

Aw thank you so much! This makes me so happy to hear. Thanks for watching 💛

[@gypsysummerraine4445]

love this comment well said Michelle C

[@bohomouse8890]

Did this to myself, love the technique!! My pixie cut looks awesome !!

[@khiachenille834]

How to do it by self? I've been doing my hair for couple years but would like to do highlights on hair but foils by self seem quite difficult...any tips?

[@bohomouse8890]

@@khiachenille834 Large mirror helps. Starting with the back first, when ten minutes go by, check on it, as it does take awhile and you don't want to overprocess it. Its alot of trial and error, you've really got to try it and see

[@maraqueen79]

I just came across your channel and I love how you explain the steps and the details on everything you're doing. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

You are teaching me sooooo many things! We learn the hard way at my school with all kinds of unnecessary steps. I understand the logic behind it, but I graduate in less than 2 weeks and I’ve been trying some of your techniques on clients and they have made so much of a difference and I’m a lot faster! ❤️ keep doing you!

Love to watch your technique!

[@eyelightangel]

I love your vids your so educational I have to say you doing the foil backwards actually makes sense sometimes the hair just wants to go that way so instead of fighting it do your way and it will flow better thank you for that tip. 👏🏻

[@Alyssaj1236]

This is sooo gorgeous and that pixie cut really compliments her face shape 😍😍

[@JamieDana]

[@halakh5731]

Thanx for teaching us how to mix colours💕love it😍

[@JamieDana]

You're welcome. Thanks for watching!

[@wendybabendy]

I just did a pixie highlight yesterday, but her hair was even shorter and textured. Trying to get the hairs to work with me when applying the foils was nerve-wracking! I wish I would have thought to do the 'backwards' foiling because that would have helped, AND the diagonal concept... brilliant! I'll be using this from now on.

[@navjotnijjar5703]

Very informative. I love this video I can’t wait to try this technique out!!!

[@joanangel5283]

Great tuition. Loved it

[@irenesmith41]

I love your video's . After 30 years I am still learning . I do find sometimes when doing short pixies I will dampen the section just a little and it helps with getting those sections to stay in place . I think your foils still managed to look nice . Mine look like a foil explosion at times ! :-)
