Two Customers for One Pixie Line
In the US, pixies sell to two quite different buyers. The first is a client after chemotherapy or hair loss, for whom a short, light unit that goes on without styling skills is often the first wig; medical wigs cover caps with a softer, more secure fit. The second is the short-hair fashion buyer. Both pay for the cut itself: a pixie arrives already tapered and layered, which most clients cannot do to a wig at home.
Choosing Hair for Pixie Cut Wigs
Pixies use less hair, so premium raw hair is affordable at short lengths.
| Style | Best hair |
|---|---|
| Sleek and finger wave pixies | Virgin or raw straight, laid flat |
| Curly pixies | Raw Vietnamese pixie curl or egg curl |
| Colored pixies | Virgin hair selected for bleaching |
How to Plan a Pixie Order
Most stores test with one sleek and one curly pixie in #1B on a glueless lace cap, then place pixies next to their bob wigs in natural black and one blonde. For mature clients, tapered pixies in soft brown sell better than black, and a grey blend can be added on request. Read Bob Wigs vs Long Wigs for how much short stock to carry, and What Wig Length Should You Stock? for where pixies fit in a full length range.
Pixie Care Card for Your Customers
Short cuts lose their shape faster than long units if they are brushed out or slept on flat. We can print this card under your brand on request and put one in every box:
- Lay flat styles with a light mousse and wrap in a silk scarf to set
- Refresh curly pixies with water and a curl cream, scrunching rather than brushing (our Curly Wig Care guide covers short curls too)
- Store on a short wig stand so the tapered nape keeps its line
