This look is made for movement. Whether you’re dashing through a windy day or dressing up for a gallery night, this haircut holds up. Easy to maintain, easy to fall in love with.
Textured Mocha Pixie with Cinnamon Highlights
This is a thick short pixie cut that is feathered and has a lot of natural body to it and is highlighted with a rich cinnamon color that shines against the deep mocha base. The crown is a bit untidy but with a purpose, making it feel airy and modern, yet polished. The long, side-swept bangs are a great way to frame the face without trying too hard, and they add balance and definition to the face, especially those with round faces or prominent cheekbones.
To maintain this style light and airy, I like to apply a dime-sized amount of Ouai Matte Pomade to the roots and ends to add definition without flattening the style. On color-treated hair, Pureology Hydrate Shampoo prevents the cinnamon ribbons turning copper too early.
I have worn this exact silhouette in early October, in a leather jacket and ankle boots. It provided me with the perfect amount of confidence- espresso to your style. Even on a foggy morning, the highlights popped.
The warm colors on the cool weather make this cut feel warm and hot at the same time. It’s subtly sassy, deeply wearable, and stylish without shouting.
Side-Swept Lilac Fade with Shaved Sides
This pixie undercut is a perfect contrast- this is a very short buzzed sides with a softly sweeping top layer that is dyed a muted lilac-grey. The fringe is asymmetrically falling, which gives a rebellious twist to the otherwise soft color story. It is a statement piece, but a tender one in its coloring. Perfect to those who want to have a cool-weather refresh without being neon.
Pastels such as this need to be maintained- Olaplex No. 4P Blonde Enhancer Toning Shampoo is my favorite to keep it looking fresh. I also like to use IGK Mistress Hydrating Balm on towel-dried hair to maintain the texture soft and pliable.
I have a friend who wore this style with a velvet blazer and silver hoops to a rooftop party last fall, and it was cold, the air was dry, but her hair still looked perfect. And the best part? She said it cut her styling time in half.
This cut is perfect if you’re ready to push boundaries. It is a combination of trendy and edgy with soft and sophisticated, which is why it is one of the most popular Trendy Pixie Haircuts to Try This Fall 2025.
Platinum Pixie with Tapered Layers
If you’re looking for blonde perfection this 2025 season, this pixie is a dream. The silhouette is gently tapered with layers that provide a slight movement but still fits the neck and sides in a clean manner. The medium length on top can be worn with a little volume or a sleek tuck, depending on how you feel. The neutral platinum color gives it a clean finish, as fresh as fallen leaves on a foggy morning walk.
To keep things shiny and toned, I use dpHUE Gloss+ in Cool Blonde every two weeks or so, which does not damage the hair. And for heat styling? Always use GHD Bodyguard Heat Protect Spray.
I wore something similar a few falls ago and paired it with deep berry lipstick–it made everything feel cinematic. There is something about silver-toned blonde in cold light that makes everything stand out.
This haircut is so blank, it enhances your earrings, coats, even scarves. Smooth yet fluffy, it is all that a fall pixie can be.
Feathered Frost with Root Fade
This cool silver pixie has short sides, longer, messy layers on top, and that halo effect of root shadow that makes the whole style look natural and lived-in. It has a spikiness in all the right places but remains feminine due to the wispy texture. This is one of the most contemporary interpretations of a cool-toned pixie I have ever seen- rebellious and radiant at the same time.
I tend to suggest Joico Color Balance Purple Conditioner to these tones. To style, Design.Me Puff.Me Volumizing Powder is a miracle worker in creating volume in the crown without making it greasy.
This fashion makes me think of fall afternoons in November-flannel jackets, fresh air, dry leaves underfoot. It’s fall, crystallized in hair form. It is not low-maintenance, but it is so worth the maintenance.
If you’re craving drama that still feels wearable day-to-day, this is a standout choice. It is one of the most fashionable and yet traditional styles of this season.
Chestnut Pixie with Burnt Copper Layers
Here’s a style that whispers fall with every strand. The pixie is short with a velvety chestnut base that is warmed up with burnt copper highlights through the fringe and the top. The outcome is spicy yet warm, such as a cup of cinnamon chai. The layers add volume at the crown and drop down towards the cheekbone in a very flattering manner that suits both round and angular faces.
Warm tones such as this are best suited to a sulfate-free shampoo- Davines Alchemic Shampoo in Copper will keep the depth and vibrancy. A spritz of Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray adds a little lift to it.
To me, this cut is a fall staple. I wore something similar to this last Thanksgiving and received compliment after compliment, even at the pumpkin patch by strangers.
The beauty of this cut is the way it moves, it never looks stiff. It plays with the wind and brings just the right amount of sass without overdoing it.
Pumpkin Spice Pixie with Platinum Tips
Talk about bold! This short edgy pixie combines the deep pumpkin spice orange with blonde platinum highlights on the fringe and ends. It is sloppy in a fun manner–raised at the top, texturized all over, and simply crazy enough to keep up with the unpredictability of fall. The color block effect is modern and editorial when combined with structured items such as blazers or sculptural jewelry.
Maintaining vibrancy here takes intention. I alternate between oVertone Coloring Conditioner in Orange and Fanola No Yellow Mask to keep both colors sharp. Try to avoid heat tools or use Amika The Shield Anti-Humidity Spray to protect.
I love when people have the guts to wear this combination- it is fall in hair version. It’s warm, nostalgic, dramatic, and fresh all at once.
This is the type of pixie that elicits compliments and confidence. This is a showstopper to anyone who wants to stand out in 2025.
