Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Bixie cut and who does it suit?

The Bixie is a hybrid between a bob and a pixie — longer than a pixie but shorter and more textured than a classic bob. It typically falls between the chin and jaw, with textured, choppy layers that create movement and a modern, effortless feel. The Bixie suits most face shapes but is particularly flattering on oval, heart, and square faces. It works best on thicker or medium hair as it needs some weight to fall beautifully.

How do I add volume to thin, flat hair?

Use a volumising shampoo and conditioner, applying conditioner only from mid-length to ends to avoid weighing down the roots. Blow dry upside down to lift the roots, then use a round brush to add shape. Apply mousse or volumising spray to damp hair before drying. Dry shampoo at the roots between washes adds instant texture and lift. Consider a layered cut that removes weight without length — layers create movement and the appearance of volume.

What hairstyles work best for thick hair?

Thick hair has the advantage of holding volume and shape beautifully. Pixie cuts with lots of texture, layered bobs that remove bulk while keeping length, and long layers that manage weight and movement all work wonderfully. The key with thick hair is removing internal weight through thinning and layering while keeping the outline. Avoid one-length blunt cuts unless you want the dramatic graphic effect — they can make thick hair look very heavy.

What haircut is most flattering for women over 50?

The wedge cut and layered bobs are consistently the most flattering options for women over 50 as they lift the face, add volume around the crown where hair naturally thins with age, and maintain a modern, current feel. Soft layers that frame the face are more youthful than blunt cuts. Avoiding very long hair past the shoulders and very short crops (unless your face shape suits them) tends to be the most universally flattering approach for this age group.

How do I care for highlighted blonde hair to prevent brassiness?

Purple or blue shampoo (toning shampoo) used once or twice a week neutralises the warm yellow and orange tones that develop as highlights fade and oxidise. Use it in place of your regular shampoo, leave it on for 2-5 minutes, and rinse thoroughly. Between uses, protect highlighted hair with UV protection spray when outdoors, use sulfate-free shampoo, and deep condition weekly. Avoid hard water where possible as it deposits minerals that cause brassiness.
