Hiya! I am thinking about a short Pixi cut but I have really curly hair, does anyone know if pixies look good on gils with curls? Thanks in advance!

yes it will knock out your curls go for a real short pixie
how long is your hair now?

Long with BLUNT bangs or ALL cut to lip length, I cant decide my favorite!

It depends on how tight the curls are. If they're tight, kinky curls, it's more likely to kink up more if it's shorter. Looser, wavier curls, especially the kind that curls more at the bottom, might go straighter if it's short enough. Pixies turn out best, I think, on straight or slightly wavy hair, though.

More awesome than a manatee!

Its about half way between my ear and chin at the moment, so pretty short, but I am considering going shorter part for a change and part for ease of maintainance. My curls are about a medium tension, but don't seem to follow the normal rule of becomming tighter when I cut them shorter.

If you go to a very short pixie, one-half of an inch or so, your hair won't be very curly.

Not sure that I am brave enough to go that short, how short would it have to be to knock the curls out? Also if I was to have my hair relaxed then pixied how long would it take for curls to appear and it to look wierd.
