Maria, a blogger, shared her impulsive experience of getting a pixie haircut at a time when she felt stressed and nervous. She used to have long, thin brown hair but began experimenting with her hair by getting a short bob before ultimately deciding to chop it all off.

To add volume to your short tresses, comb your hair backwards and upwards with a round brush. If you have curly hair, do the same with a wide-toothed brush or wide-toothed comb. Apply natural oil to your hair at least once a week. Use a heat protectant before you use heat styling tools on your hair. This will protect your hair from heat damage.
