Add an edge to your pixie cut with an eye-catching short asymmetrical style! A shaved nape undercut with texturized layers creates this playful style, which works particularly well on women with rounder faces. Long box braids look fantastic when worn with a choppy pixie cut. Create a deep side part, and use hair gel for an oily finish for the final touch.
Standard bob haircuts have proven popular, yet some women want something extra. This cute angled cut features seductive side bangs to frame the face for an irresistibly hot look sure to turn heads – it may even make men swoon! Surface layers add thick strand thickness while reducing bulk for this jawline-length asymmetrical bob.

Feathered short layered spikes framed by a longer side-swept fringe make this cute asymmetrical pixie one of the women’s most flattering short hairstyles. Upgrade it by adding sun-kissed highlights for added texture and volume. Closely cropped around the ears, this pixie gradually lengthens towards its crown while framed by messy, textured bangs touching one eye on either side.
Thick hair will help make this style work, but if you possess it, an asymmetrical bob is an incredibly flattering haircut for round faces. Add texture with texturizing spray for an ultra-modern look to elongate your neckline and showcase this trending style! Christina Ricci demonstrates bangs can be a fashion statement instead of an eyeshade hindrance. Ask your stylist to cut angled eyelash-grazing fringes for an elongated frame around your face.
