pixie cut

Elfin hair style

A pixie cut is a short women's hairstyle where the hair is cropped close to the head, typically with slightly longer pieces on top and around the face.

The style emphasizes facial features and requires minimal styling: She got a pixie cut for the summer.

The name evokes the impish, elfin look the cut creates.
