How to Determine if You Have a Bad Haircut | Detailed Pixie Styling Tips

[@Lisa1260]

The pixie suits you very well. You are very talented in styling it!

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

Thank you so much😘💖

[@ADRCATS]

I absolutely adore your stylist she is awesome!!!☺️

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

I love her too! She's amazing!🥰

[@leomasmith6245]

Awesome video! I’m showing this to my sister who has a cute pixi cut! You’re a wonderful teacher! 🤩❤️

[@tbascoebuzz4782]

I think the thing I like best about your stylist, besides being talented, is how knowledgeable she is. Now, she may not be knowledgeable, but she convinces me that she is, in fact and deed, very wise. That quality would make me comfortable putting my hair in her hands. 🥰

[@rosierose2717]

New here to pixie and glad you posted this today! Just got my pixie this afternoon after having long hair most of my life.

[@carrie817]

Love your pixie. I no longer bleach my hair so getting the lift is more difficult even using the same products. I don’t have thick hair like you and the top is thinning so never can get it to look quite the same but appreciate all the tips nonetheless. Have a wonderful Christmas🌲

[@denisewilder447]

Thank you Sharalee for all your styling tips! I too have a pixie cut and have cowlicks. I also use the Zuvi and the Enjoy dry wax. I love both of them!

[@dianephillips4084]

Me too! Love them both!

[@carolholly4837]

Thank you for sharing your tips, I have a short style and it’s very dependant on my products and expertise. Also for me when my colour starts to enter it’s 12 week my hair struggles with styling. 😊 Building a good relationship with your stylist is very important, I’m off to have my hair cut and coloured tomorrow, she will notice how much it has grown as I have been taking a hair, nail and skin multivitamin mainly for my nails but it’s made my hair grow fast. 😊 We always discuss how it has been or not that is most important I feel, then a chat on colour and finally the cut.. Your hair looks amazing as you take time to understand it and the products that work best.. thank you again x

[@Lisadfulks]

You are so fortunate and blessed to have a stylist! Does she know anyone in Arizona that knows how to do pixie cuts?

[@AGardnerCPwarrior]

Super cute pixie and absolutely LOVE the makeup! You're a stunning woman 🩷

[@Kathryn8313]

You are the cutest Little Girl I have ever seen. And you look great in a Pixie haircut! I am amazed at how really good you are at styling your hair and doing your makeup as well. Thanks for sharing it all with us. Wishing you and all you Love, a very Merry CHRISTmas and a Blessed and Prosperous New Year!❤ 👍 🙏

[@Shelley-m6b]

You look lovely with short hair. The pixie is so cute on you.

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

Thank you so much! It's definitely a fun style for me! 🥰

[@juliebrown3003]

Thanks for the refresher!! I was getting annoyed with my cut and watching this reminded me of some things I had stopped doing! I think I got lazy. Haha. And yes about the trims/cuts!!! My friend’s daughter went short and then she wouldn’t take her to get it cut. She was used to every 3-4 months! Hopefully she will start getting it cut more often. I let my daughter plan our cuts (she shaves hers under her long hair) so I go every 5 and it works out! The color and cut are just about grown out and I’m not annoyed. 😂😂😂❤❤❤

[@lisajones542]

I have short hair and it is all about the cut and using good products your hair is stunning and really suits you ❤

[@wendybrown3502]

Love your hair Sharalee!Always so cute!😊❤

[@TerryFire1000]

Adorable as always! Your style in the shots with Kristin was so cute with the bangs. Hope we get to see that salon visit! Merry Christmas to you and Pastor Guy!🎄😘Roberta

[@Love_In_Bloom60]

Your pixie looks so pretty on you!! And I agree with all of your advice on how to style a pixie. I absolutely LOVE my pixie cut and I have a lot of fun with it. It’s quick and easy to style. And I get so many compliments on it. I get my pixie cut about every 4-5 weeks. Merry Christmas!! 🎄❤️🎁

[@pablociuffo6478]

Hi Sharalee, thanks for the video. Your shaved pixie cut is always on the cutting edge with Kristen's hands. And the hairstyle with the products at home turned out great. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and New Year.

[@barbarariener6360]

Always love your videos! Stylist is everything. My stylist had a bad accident 9 months ago. She hasn’t gone back to work. Which means after 9 years with her I have gone on a hunt and it’s been a challenge. My last HC was shorter on my left side and was not at all what I asked for. But regardless I love your hair makeup clothes etc. thank you for all your helpful tips!

[@fayeehm7307]

You have the best ideas for "pixie" videos! It is truly "the little things" when it comes to the perfect pixie. Merry Christmas, dear Sharalee! ❤💚

[@patricialarson5919]

Great step by step. It is always good if you have the same hair dresser all the time. I haven’t found one yet. Take care and God bless. Merry Christmas.

[@sharronwolfe7711]

I love this style on you! It looks so beautiful! And every tutorial you do helps me with mine! Thank you, and Merry, Merry Christmas!!! ❤❤

[@karenpeterson8814]

So lovely, I will try to style tomorrow using your tips. I think my undercut is a bit overgrown, so need to deal with that, thank you for your vids!

[@julieligon8177]

Your hair looks great! Thanks for all the good info in this video!

[@rominatonon1707]

Grazie Sharalees per i tuoi Preziosi Consigli! Buon Natale. 🤗✨🎄✨💖

[@joannechandler5667]

My short pixie is a challenge due to my thinning hair (inherited from both sides of family), especially receding by left temple. I struggle to find the right combination of products for my situation, and love getting hints from you. Am going to try the Bed Head Queen for a day thickening spray. I have other products by them that work well for me. Thanks for sharing your expertise in styling with us.

[@kathleenmoul3630]

Great video. I've had short hair for years, but your's is definitely a cut above. Looking forward to trying some of your tips. Thank you. ❤

[@GenDoyon_2023]

Master Sharalee at her finest!! 😁 Even if I have worn my hair short for many years, I have learned so much from you. From styling my hair to using the right products (I have fine hair and ❤ Enjoy Dry Wax), every video made with the right amount of details has been a blessing. Thank you and Kristen for sharing your talent!! 😊🫶🏻❤️

[@juanitaleblanc3121]

When you did this last ,it definitely helped me to style my hair!!! Thank you for all the help you give us!!! 💚🎅🎄☃️❤️ Merry Christmas

[@susanhobbs6186]

Another great video. I love, love your new cut, especially the shorter bangs.

[@debbieanderson6740]

You have really encouraged me to get a pixie and I really love it.

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

Yay!! I'm so happy you love your pixie!😍

[@Kimberly-hi7kp]

I'm glad you shortend your bangs. Really cute😊

[@dianephillips4084]

Wonderful video! Great explanations for sure. I DO use almost everything you recommend and love em all! Thanks again and hope you have a very Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 ❤️

[@jbbb7418]

Sharalee, I have hair nearly to my backside. I am a bit of a childhood hair victim, mom loved my hair short and would resort to all sorts of mischief to get it there. I loved long hair, I am sure you have heard these stories from friends…. I can not forsee ever cutting my hair short, but as a testament to how much I love your channel, I watch all of your hair videos 🥰 I wish a very Merry Christmas, to you, your husband, Gracie, and your loved ones. 👼🏻⛪️🎄

[@readytogo3186]

You always look so good! Many blessings to you and may you have a Merry Christmas!

[@rosenotley6254]

I love your eye makeup!

[@donnaalpert]

I’m so glad you addressed this issue. Many women don’t realize how often they need to get trims if they have gone short. A half inch of growth can really modify the style and also make it hard to maintain the style. Thanks for all your good tips!

[@cindyanderson1755]

I agree. I get my pixie trimmed every 4 weeks. A friend of mine gets her's trimmed every 3 weeks. And ask for lots of texture, blunt cuts are not a pixie cut's friend. Also using the right hair products for your hair and what style you are going for. That's my 2 cents 😊. I've had my hair cut in a pixie of one form or another for the last 20 years. Long hair is not my friend, It drags my face down, which makes me look older and frumpy.

[@donnaalpert]

@ Completely agree, Cindy. Texture is the pixie cut’s best friend!

[@goldie51944]

All your tips are always helpful 👍. Love your pixie cut. I have a couple cowlicks also in the back crown area. Yuk. They’re tricky to control. I watched closely how you dried your hair Drying in the reverse direction on the top area is what I need to do Thanks for that tip I learned a lot of good ideas in your video. Thanks a bunch always love hair tutorials 😍💗🎄💗😍

[@b.jeannenestephenson5436]

Finally ordered the Enjoy Dry Wax. Love this product!

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

Yay!!🎉😘

[@annt.422]

Your pixie is awesome 😊 This Video came at an excellent time for me. I love the "Queen for a Day" spray. I have fine hair TKS.❤

[@PWallace23]

Do you feel you have to wash your hair every day with the product in your hair? I would think yes? I love my short hair but I feel like I can't use many products it weighs it down....even when the hair dresser does it. Your tips are awesome!

[@rhondapomeroy5695]

Great tips, great products , I will add if your hair is a little wavy or has some natural curl it might not spike as well because of its natural bend, you could use a straightener to help it but it might not spike as it begins to bend again or gets longer. Your stylist could help with that.

[@lizabuckingham9586]

Yep. My experience.

[@annettehankins3268]

The pixie looks marvelous on you!!

[@RuthMaxgay]

I am in love with your sweater! 😅

[@patricialarson5919]

Oh and by the way a couple of months ago I went from shoulder length hair to a pixie cut after watching one of your videos and folks say I look younger now so not to shabby for a 71 year old. So now maybe for 2025 I should wear makeup and blow dry my hair. Heehee

[@suecastillo4056]

Do it Dear Sister!! Only live once or twice so why not!!?? Sending love and encouragement♥️‼️🙋‍♀️☮️🕉️

[@patricialarson5919]

@ thanks

[@shirleyvanderbloomer2439]

Love your style. My hair is very fine.

[@bevyoung2009]

Thanks so much Sharalee ❤

[@MelissaDurnan-g4t]

I have to get my pixie trimmed every 3 weeks. My hair gets full/bulky pretty quickly between cuts, so I’ve come to realize that 3 weeks is the magic number. Anything beyond that and styling becomes more and more difficult.

[@pamwhite-hasbrouck7942]

Great tutorial! Always such great info! Thank you!

[@dinahsoar6982]

Oh yeah, I don't dare allow my hair to stay in a towel very long b/c I too have cowlicks, several...it's easier for me to keep the hair from getting funky. Since I went to a layered bob from a non-layered I find it harder to get the back to look nice..I find it works best for me to go for a messy or 'chunky' look back there.

[@b.b7305]

I have fine soft hair and I use a mousse gel extra firm by AG and there Dry Lift Texture volume paste or sometimes the Bedhead matte and the BeadHead Hard Head hair spray , that’s the only thing that will keep my hair it place and not go flat. Thanks for the video.

[@PatterC]

I have the same issue you do at the crown. It's amazing how stubborn that area is even with blow drying and wax. And I have to get my haircut every 3 weeks. If I go 4, it really begins to drive me crazy. LOL!

[@LizHiggTN]

Really helpful! Thanks for sharing! ❤

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

I'm so glad it was helpful! 🥰

[@jackiebrown6577]

Thank you! Merry Christmas! 😊❤

[@JeanNeisler-g2x]

Absolutely love,love it! You are gorgeous. Thank you for sharing.

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

Aww, thank you so much!🥰

[@pamelayoung1194]

Thank you! You explained everything perfectly.

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

I'm so glad it was helpful! 🥰

[@kimhiatt1294]

I also have a short pixie cut, but my hair is naturally curly so I have a hard time getting your look. Can you please make an video with some suggestions for my type of hair? Thank you🙂

[@tanyawalker7585]

I get an all over cut ever four weeks but I go back every two weeks to get the sides and back trimmed up. My hair grows super fast.

[@kristinkessler3370]

I wash my hair twice a week. My issue is flatness at the crown and back where I like it spiked. Also, two weeks after a cut is usually my sweet spot especially in the summer when my hair seems to grow faster.

[@junedecosta4479]

Sharalee, how long would you say your crown is? I love the way it spikes up. Need to tell my hair dresser. Love your hair!

[@terrievans4444]

Hi Sharalee! I just got my bob cut back into a pixie. I go back and forth. Lol! When it was a bob I was able to wash my hair every other day. How often do you wash your hair? Does it depend on how much product you use?

[@debraj6384]

❤❤❤ love your hair

[@Lisadfulks]

Hi Sharalee! I have already been able to tell that I got a really bad cut for the fourth time! Now I’m on a mission to find the right stylist. So, I have a favor to ask you - is there anyway that you can find out if your stylist networks with any other stylists that live in the Surprise, Peoria, or Glendale Arizona area? Is there any way to help find a stylist? I have taken pics of your hair to show her and she’s got the problem of not being able to speak up and say that she doesn’t know how to do it, instead she just grabs the clippers and shaves it too short! Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

[@terrirocheleau2504]

I wear a pixie cut. And wanted my bangs choppy looking and the ended up straight not choppy at all 😢

[@carolefreeman2544]

Mine too! 😮

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

I'm sorry you didn't quite get the cut you wanted! If I were you, I'd take some scissors and cut up into the bangs vertically to break up the straight line😘

[@marilyngiannuzzi9867]

I have been trying to get a new stylist as the one I have gone to & loved for years will be retiring soon.I have gone to two other younger ladies but they have no clue as to cutting shorter hair & blow drying volume into my hair! What to do!😱😱

[@Metzfamily47240]

What is the hairdryer that you like to use?

[@ganglioncyst2]

Where did you get your sweater?❤

[@angelfain8040]

I had a pixie back in 2017, and loved it, I am wanting one again. But I don't live near the old stylist, please ask your stylist if a female barber would be a good choice if you can't find someone who feels comfortable with this pixie.

[@pjsmfasheri]

Perfect!

[@andreac9918]

My stylist has an understudy fresh out of school who is working alongside her and I’ve noticed she has no idea how to blow dry my Pixie cut. She’s great with beach waves but has no idea how to do a precision cut. I recommend a stylist with at least 10 years experience.

[@Mimi-tu2ih]

That was so helpful!!!!!! ❤❤

[@GoldenGirl3300-k9q]

Again, I'm watching you use a flat iron to pull through the crown to exaggerate the straight spike, and wavy hair in humidity won't stay that way for more than 15 minutes, max. I've tried this multiple times. Any suggestions?

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

Try using the Sexy Hair Root Pump Plus in your wet hair before styling. That one has specific resistance to humidity😊

[@GoldenGirl3300-k9q]

@@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates gotcha. Thanks

[@GoldenGirl3300-k9q]

I learned more today with your detailed styling instructions. I used the flat iron like you did. Helped. I also took back the bedhead I had given away. Going to try it again. I used it all over my hair. It made my hair really bufont, like something put of the 60s since it waves up. 😀😀😀

[@bevyoung2009]

Gorgeous 😍

[@beajannis2968]

Do you use a 1 inch flatiron ?

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

Yes😊

[@sandandsparrow]

It's so difficult to find anyone who does a great pixie haircut anymore where I live (Wisconsin). I have lot of hair that seems to mushroom up into a boxy, helmet look very quickly and needs point cutting and texturizing. I'd grow it out but it's also almost impossible to grow out without looking like a wild, unkempt mess.

[@loraleesposato5458]

Hello can you do a tutorial on your makeup for this video???❤❤

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

Yes!! Already filmed it...coming soon!🥰

[@GoldenGirl3300-k9q]

I wish someone would address how wave/curl/ florida humidity eliminates the ability to spike my hair in the crown. I've even used a flat iron, spray and wax and shortly thereafter, the wave takes over.

[@bevyoung2009]

Hello beautiful Sharalee 😍

[@GoldenGirl3300-k9q]

DON'T use the Zuvi hair dryer on the dry wax to soften! It blew up on my hair dryer face plate and in the edge around the face plate. 😢 I actually thought I ruined it, and not sure yet that I didn't. I used a regular hair dryer to soften the Enjoy dry wax before I got a Zuvi, it worked fine.

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

Oh no! I'm so sorry that happened! You definitely never want to shield/cover the Zuvi dryer if it's on a setting with the light on. It should work fine to warm up the wax on the Style setting with the airflow attachment on and no light.

[@donnawilson3745]

Your stylist cuts your hair so beautifully that styling is almost A BREEZE

[@GoldenGirl3300-k9q]

Mine isn't straight enough to get it to spike like yours. I've purchased every product you use, as well as the $400 dryer! I've blown it backwards like you do, I got a hairdresser to watch the cut videos and cut my hair like yours, and it still doesn't look like yours. The wave takes over.

[@marilynlane-n2h]

Everytime i go and try to get yoir style they cut all my hair off i give up after 4 times

[@bevyoung2009]

I have a pixie haircut

[@bluebird218bn]

If only your hairdresser made house calls. To Virginia. Lol

[@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates]

😆😘

[@kayroberts4487]

It looks like bad styling
