Malin Akerman's Pixie Cut

Short haircuts are all the rage in Hollywood. Pixie haircuts and pixie mohawks are being taken to new extremes with shaved sections, slicked-back locks, and spiky textures.
Actress Malin Akerman sported this super short hairstyle at the 66th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards on August 25th, 2014. Her hair was buzzed short on the sides and left several inches long on top for a radically chic look. The longer pieces were teased to create a slight cushion and then slicked back for an edgy style. A flat iron was probably used to achieve the straight texture.
A short hairstyle like this really opens up the face and doesn’t allow for any soft face-framing or accentuating. However, it’s a fun look to try because the length on top is very versatile and can be worn forward and around the face if desired.
Malin’s hair color was a medium brown shade with blended highlights throughout. The overall color looked like a dark blonde that complemented her skin and eyes beautifully. The color was natural yet still interesting to look at. Malin’s pixie cut is a fun example of yet another celebrity who couldn’t resist this daring style. Who will be next?
