Classic Vintage Finger-Waved Pixie
Step-by-Step Guide
The vintage finger-waved pixie cut brings timeless mid-century glamour to modern short hairstyles through structured S-shaped waves along the hairline. This artistic arrangement works best on short to medium pixie lengths with uniform layering across the top and sides. Apply a firm-hold setting gel liberally throughout wet hair until completely saturated. Create a low side part using a fine-toothed comb, then press your index finger against the scalp near the part while combing the hair backward to form a raised ridge. Pinch the ridge with your fingers and comb the remaining hair forward to form an alternating wave pattern down the side of the face. Allow the waves to air-dry completely or secure them under a hairnet before using a bonnet dryer. Remove any stiffness by lightly pressing a drop of oil onto the wave tops.
