Mixie
A pixie-mullet hybrid: pixie-short at the nape with deliberate length left at the back of the crown. The two lengths stay disconnected and intentionally messy. Youthful, androgynous, and easy to grow out.

The mixie is the pixie-mullet hybrid — pixie-short at the nape with mullet-y length kept at the back-top crown, disconnected, intentionally messy. The shape exists in the space between pixie and modern mullet. It went viral in 2022 as a non-binary-coded cut that read youthful and edgy without committing to either short-or-long.
It flatters oval, heart, and oblong faces — the volume at the crown lengthens round faces, and the framing pieces around the cheekbone balance heart shapes. Straight, wavy, and curly textures all wear it; the messy-disconnected aesthetic adapts to whatever the natural pattern is. The mixie suits people who want short hair without the commitment of a pixie.
Low daily maintenance — rough-dry with mousse, scrunch in texturizing spray, push pieces around. Three minutes. Trim every six weeks to keep the disconnection between the pixie nape and mullet back-top. The mixie went viral on TikTok in 2022 (the cut has many viral progenitors, most attributed to specific TikTok hairstylists) and has stayed firmly in rotation. Ask for 'pixie-short nape with mullet-y length at the back-top, disconnected, intentionally messy' — generic 'short cut' won't produce the asymmetry.
