A few months back, the bixie cut was predicted to be a big haircut trend this winter. And now, its shorter, edgier sister cut is making its rounds on social media: the mixie. According to Allure, the mullet-meets-pixie cut is close to a traditional mullet without the extra length in the back.
The mini mullet is a good option for clients who want to change up their 'do without sacrificing too much texture or length. "The best thing about a pixie-mullet hybrid shape is that you get the best of both worlds," Brooklyn-based hairstylist Andy Judd told Allure—it effortlessly combines the playfulness of the pixie with the edginess of the mullet. Plus, it's an easy transition style for those looking to experiment with short hair without chopping off too much too quickly.
When it comes to old trends resurging, the mullet-pixie hybrid is likely one of many we'll see in 2022.
