Ready to refresh your look this fall? No matter what kind of look you are in the mood to make a statement with, whether it is bold, feminine, edgy, or simply low-maintenance, the trendy pixie haircuts of the season will have something to offer. Whether it is soft wavy textures or short edgy shapes and cozy blonde or silver tones, 2025 is all about styles that are both fashion-forward and wearable. Which pixie is calling your name?
Softly Layered Brunette Pixie with Bangs
It has a distinctly cool vibe to it, this classic French-inspired pixie, it has a hint of Audrey Hepburn but it is all 2025. The hair is softly feathered on the top and the bangs are softly side-swept, which forms a face-framing silhouette that suits round faces in particular. The dark, cool brunette color adds depth to the cut, and this is a traditional but very modern twist on the classic short crop. I am in love with the way it accentuates the cheekbones without being over the top.
To keep this shape polished, I would suggest a lightweight sculpting paste, like R+Co Dart Pomade Stick, to give the ends some light texture and smooth cowlicks without making it greasy. And don t forget a little dry shampoo at the roots to keep that crown up.
On a personal note, this trim reminds me of a cold October brunch in New York, when I had just gotten shorter and a stranger in the cafe asked me where I had my hair done. That’s the power of a smart, slightly tousled pixie. It’s a conversation-starter, always.
This is one of those styles that is just pretty without being too done up, in case you are just getting your feet wet in the short hair world. It’s all about the shape and that softness.
Dimensional Blonde Pixie with Side-Swept Volume
This blonde pixie is voluminous and confidently goes off the beaten track. It has a darker base with rich caramel and champagne blonde highlights that give all the fall vibes. The rich, asymmetrical form, which is longer in the front and is tapered beautifully at the nape, is what truly makes it pop. It’s flattering, medium in softness, and instantly youthful.
Maintenance-wise, you will need a round brush and a volumizing mousse, Amika Plus Size Volume & Body Mousse is a favorite to keep that body lifted without stiffness. The blonde will be crisp with a purple toning shampoo every other wash.
I have witnessed this cut leave a salon and head to a dinner party. It carries itself, you know? The loose detachment and large movement make it feel luxurious and approachable.
This is one of the trendy pixie haircuts to try this fall 2025 if you’re craving volume, brightness, and a bit of sass without fully committing to a crop.
Fiery Copper Pixie with Wispy Layers
This is the season of this sort of color–deep, glowing, unashamedly warm. This copper-colored pixie is soft and choppy layered, which raises the texture, so it is perfect on fine hair. It is trimmed a little longer in the front, which gives it softness and movement around the jawline. A little bit of sassy, a little bit of rebel, and a lot of confidence.
Copper tones need extra love. To prevent fading and maintain that shine even on windier days, I would always recommend a color-safe hydrating mask, like Redken Color Extend Magnetics Deep Attraction, once a week.
This type of color makes me think of kicking leaves in the park in suede boots. It is warm in all the angles and the texture is just another level.
It is a daring approach to greet 2025 with color that does not want to be lost in the background and a short style that tells you are not afraid of change.
Messy Textured Pixie with Chunky Highlights
This screams short edgy energy in the best way. The spiky, matted look with light-reflecting chunky blonde highlights adds a fun touch without being too much. It is short on the sides and longer on top, which gives it natural lift, which is awesome on girls who like a windblown look that still feels purposeful.
Minimal effort lovers will be happy, just a spritz of Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray and a finger tousle is all you need to style this. It is perfect when you are in a hurry in the morning or when you want to go to your favorite local coffee shop.
I love how playful this feels. It has a sort of sun-meets-shadow dimension that gives attitude without any additional styling processes.
This one’s for the low-key rebel. This is the cut that is your sweet spot when you want an edgy look but do not want to commit to a buzz or very short style.
Elegant Deep Brown Pixie with Side Part
Here’s a grown-up take on the classic pixie. The dark brunette color and a sharp side part give this smooth look a fresh, clean, and subtle daring. The profile is tight at the nape, but bulges out to a slightly elevated crown-good-looking, plain, and yet not without expression.
To maintain that sleek finish, I never leave home without a humidity-resistant shine spray-Color Wow Extra Mist-ical Shine Spray gives me high gloss without weight.
It’s giving confidence. This one makes me think of chilly fall dinners with string lights, a cashmere wrap and bright lipstick.
This is a great base style if you’re interested in evolving your cut—next time, you could go longer on top or play with a mini undercut. It’s a great blank canvas.
Sleek Cropped Brunette with Tapered Layers
This is the epitome of contemporary pixie chic. It is very short on the sides and neck and tapers upwards into piece-y texture through the crown. The sheer glow and clean line make it suitable to be combined with a professional makeup and dramatic earrings. It’s low-effort, but still totally elevated.
It is the type of cut that pays off a good stylist. I would apply some Living Proof Style Lab Forming Paste to give the shape without stickiness. A little goes a long way.
This is your fashion-week-in-Paris pixie. Sleek, minimal, sharp. It looks great with high collars and oversized coats when fall comes.
This is one of the most simplified styles you can do, especially when you are a person who likes to have their short hair feel complete when you wake up.
Spiky Gray Pixie with Voluminous Crown
This is a salt-and-pepper moment that is edgy and full of character, chef kiss. The top, which is blended with silver, is bright, and the sides remain tight and crisp. The controlled spiky crown is what makes it sing, it gives volume and drama without compromising structure. Perfect for fall layers and statement earrings.
