Pixie Bangs

December 15th, 2008 by sarah

Bangs have really taken the cake as the trend of 2008 and it doesn’t look like the trend is slowing down any time soon.

Christina Aguilera has taken the trend and made it her own with a cute set of pixie bangs.  I can’t see myself pulling this look off, but she pulls off the look beautifully.  The short, layered bangs really make her eyes stand out and give her a modern throw back look.

I think the pixie bang looks great when the hair is pulled up and back; it gives off a really elegant feel.  But, wearing your hair down is a little trickier.  You would have to really have confidence and know how to style your hair in a way to flatter your face and your bangs.  Something I wouldn’t want to work at.

So, if you like to be on the cutting edge (literally), have a retro style or if you wear your hair back every day, then the pixie look might just work for you.  But, if you’re a wash and go girl like me you might want to steer clear of this look.  Plus, can you imagine growing those things out?

    I just saw your blog… and then went straight to the salon on my break. Who knew you could get bangs cut so cheap??
    Anyway, I NEVER thought that I would get bangs, but the pixie bangs rock. They even make a ponytail look “done.”

About Cupcakes Taste Nice

My lust for beauty products has been around since I was a kid. I always wanted the most eye catching packaging and the sweetest scents. As a preteen I could not wait to get my first pimple so that I could try out the different acne products that were marketed to me in magazines and on TV. As I got older I just loved the girlie side of wanting to look and feel pretty. I love taking a shower on Saturday morning and having a plethora of products to choose from depending on my mood that day. I anticipate my beauty and style magazines coming in the mail so I can read and research new products. I even spend hours on the internet searching for factual reviews of the latest and greatest products.
