How to ~SURVIVE Growing Our Your Pixie~

When I went to college, I wanted to do something different with my hair, and so I decided to chop it all off into a cute little pixie. I absolutely LOVED it. It felt so light and free and it was super easy to style!!

Over time, I began to miss my long hair more and more, until I finally decided to let it grow out. Now, let me tell you, growing out a pixie cut is no walk in the park. Especially when you're in the floofy puppy dog stage like I am. The picture above is my hair with no styling. It isn't the end of the world, but it isn't the most wearable thing either. And I'm stuck with it. BUT, not to fear, if you're in the same boat as me, there ARE some ways to survive.

✨Here's what you need✨

This is some generic hair gel (I lost the label, so I'm not actually sure of the brand. I'm pretty sure I just picked it up at Wal Mart.) and Unicorn Snot from Bath and Body works. It's so sparkly and fun!

1st: Use the hair gel (a decent amount, about the size of a penny), rub it between your fingers, and then run it all through your hair. Make it stand up, pull it to the side, go crazy. It won't get stiff unless you were to use hairspray, but that's not the point of this tutorial.

2nd: Wet your hair and brush it, and I would recommend straightening it, especially if you're doing this first thing in the morning. Bed-head is ten times worse with a pixie, trust me. You can flip up individual bits of hair with the straightener for a fun, cute, pixie-like look. It's what I do.

Then you get to whip out this sparkly magic. I got the pink kind, of course, but there are all different colors to choose from. It is SUPER sparkly, and after you use it, you're hands will be sparkly too. :) You can also use it on your cheeks as a nice glitter. It's pretty versatile.

I rub it between my fingers, good amounts of it, and rub it all through my hair, styling it how I wish, playing with it over and over and getting more Unicorn Snot as needed. It's really up to you how you want your final product to look, and there's no secret. It's not as hard as you'd think.

 And there ya go, here's my finished product! Pardon my face I was too lazy to put on make up for this tiny shoot lol. ;)

Super simple, but much more fun to wear! The sparkle lasts a long time, I've worn it through choir concerts and fun social events without it going anywhere. ;) Definitely recommend the product, it is such a lifesaver for me!!

Later, peeps 💓
