I’m chronicling the perfect pixie (short) hairstyles for any black Afrocentric hair type.
Due to the ghastly heat in Lagos and Nigeria as a whole,
I have recently toyed with the idea of cutting my hair short to free my neck of heat rashes
Short hair is perfect for summer because it combats your level of sweat and encourages the use of hats and caps when it comes to your summer wardrobe
But deep down, I know that I have no liver to crop my actual locks,
therefore, fixing a pixie (cut) hairstyle is the next best option.
If you’ve also been tempted to go short this summertime then this article is for you!
Whether you’re more courageous than I am, or you’re on my exact wavelength
scroll on for hair options and remember when choosing a style,
always consider the style which frames the shape of your face and enhances your features.
