This cut is also ageless and works well with fine to medium textures. It’s very low-maintenance, and this length of pixie looks good on any face shape because the razor cut gives it a softer finish.

This extra short blonde hair for black women is edgy and trendy from color to cut. It can also be versatile because the cut can be worn spikey or flat. To maintain this very short length, have a regular stylist treat your hair first because of the color.

#6: Super Short for Women Over 70
A super short crop is a great way to give a youthful look. Instead of an aging old-fashioned cut, ask for a wispy textured fringe that can be styled to the side. Or you could style the parting loosely, opting for a more relaxed feel. Finish with a wax product to give definition and hold.
