    I have thick curly hair and I can't go too short...I would never do a Pixie cut. But then again, I have a big head so that alone would make it look terrible on me!

    ETA I have to agree with the others that said that a Pixie 'do looks best on very petite girls.

    Back in the early 90's I had gotten a really bad perm. My hair was so fried from it that I had to cut it all off. I had never had hair shorter than shoulder length before then, and I went from shoulder length thick wavy (fried) hair to super short. I loved it, and I actually got a lot of compliments from strangers. I was young and cute and it definitely suited my face. I will admit that it took a looooong time to grow out. I would have dreams about having long hair and wake up disappointed that it was still much shorter than I wanted.

    I still go back and forth about whether I'd cut my hair that short again. Usually I let it grow between chin and shoulder and then get it cut about jaw length. I'm not a big hair styler, so something short is much much easier for me to make look good. Mine is very thick and mostly staight with a little wave.

    When I see a woman with longish hair, many many times the hair isn't in good condition or the style doesn't suit their face. A lot of women would look a lot better with shorter hair IMO.
