Pixie haircuts—from bleach blonde to feathery textures—are bold and beautiful. One of our fave ways to style this cut involves pretty accessories that dress up the short hairstyle.

This accessory can be highly versatile, whether you go for a blinged out head band or something more simplistic. To get inspired, here are some of our favorite ways to accessorize your cropped tops (as in your short pixie) with a headband. Read on:

For a fancy approach, accessorize pixie cuts with embellished hair accessories.

1. Formal Headband

For a formal touch, jazz up your pixie haircut with an embellished headband that looks like a tiara. Opt for wearing this look to a wedding, bridal shower or even to a gala. If you have a cut with longer wispy layers towards the front, use a holding spray to keep it in place. After all, you don’t want to hide your gorgeous hair accessory.

2. Hidden Headband

For a subtle approach, opt for a monochromatic look. Go for a headband that is the same color as your hair and create contrast with a bold ear accessory with mixed colored metals. Try a style like this as a laid back off-duty look, or as bad hair day quick-fix. Styling tip: Use a gel, like Nexxus Exxtra Hold Sculpting Gelto smooth hair back before sliding on your headband accessory.
