Caring for Your Copper Pixie Cut
Keeping that gorgeous copper pixie looking its best is key. I’ve learned a few tricks over the years to make these vibrant colors last. It’s not too difficult, I promise! We want to preserve that beautiful shine and the sharp lines of the cut. A little care goes a long way. Let’s talk about how to keep your copper pixie dazzling.
Washing and Conditioning Tips for Copper Hair
When it comes to washing your lovely copper pixie, think cool, not hot. Hot water can strip the color right out. Stick to lukewarm or cool water. I always reach for color-safe, sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners. They are much kinder to dyed hair. Honestly, I also love co-washing sometimes. It’s just using conditioner to clean your hair. Dry shampoo is a lifesaver too. It helps extend the time between washes. This really keeps the color vibrant longer.
Styling Your Copper Pixie
Styling a pixie cut is usually pretty quick. For my copper pixie, I love using a texturizing spray. It gives my hair that piecey, defined look. A little bit of pomade or wax works wonders too. Just a small amount can shape the hair and add hold. I try to minimize heat styling whenever I can. If I do use a blow dryer or straightener, I always apply a good heat protectant first. Protecting your hair is super important.
