I had a pixie cut that was about the length of emma watsons, but i have tried growing it out. However, i kind of want to try something new, like one of these cuts, what do you think i should do? I kind of ant to go ultra short, but I am also really nervous.

I was also thinking of doing an ultra short crop, shorter than half an inch all over.
Like this, only a bit shorter.

My favorite is the Alyssa Milano pixie.  It would be easier to give better suggestions if we had a picture of you.

I don't post pics online, sorry. I also love the alissa milano pixie and I posted the wrong link in my last post I meant to post this one. However I have an oval face and am petite.  t.

What about a super short skullhugging crop with longer bangs.

Sorry to hear that, but completely understand.  I still like the Alyssa Malano (new pic) cut the best.

I like mckey's pic. It would take a confident attitude and a pretty face to pull off.

All the hairstyles look good on the women that are wearing them, but people can't tell what'll look good on you without your picture. If you won't post one here, try your picture in the privacy of your own home with the Instyle makeover.

How short would you say the Alyssa milano one is in top, back and sides? In inches?

Summerflower,
Just have your stylist taper the sides and back tight at the nape and around the ears, and you will be fine. Enjoy the cut. Do not be nervous just think how nice it shall look once completed. Do you have good stylist that you trust to do this cut that would make you question the cut?
Mike
