The British actress Helen George showed up in powder blue pumps, a very futuristic dress, and a platinum pixie cut at the TV Choice Awards in London (September 9th, 2013). She even carried a hot orange pocketbook! She definitely wasn't afraid to take a fashion risk..
TThe actress' hair texture is extremely fine, so it looks quite full when cut so short. Her heart-shaped face is the perfect accent to this short crop as well. Strands are tapered around the ears and neck, and her baby-fine strands are blended up beautifully to slightly longer strands on top. Her hair is razored around the face for another soft and feminine finish.
When hair is so fine, pomade may be too heavy or greasy. A light spray wax may have been used, or even a light mist of hairspray to polish off the look and add some texture without weighing it down.
Helen's entire head of hair was lifted with bleach and toned to remove any yellow or brassy tones. The result is a superb example of platinum perfection. Bleach often changes the texture of the hair slightly and can actually give it some grit that may be helpful for baby-fine-haired ladies.
