Some people get nervous about getting an inch trimmed off of their hair, and other people are willing to go all the way no problem. Ever chop all of your hair off and trade it in for a pixie cut?
These women did and we have to say, each and every one is a major transformation. When you look at the before and after pictures, you can’t help but think they are two different people. It totally changes your look!
Check out these 50 photos to get an idea of what we mean.
1. Ten pounds lighter!
That is so much hair that she just cut off. She must feel 10 lbs lighter! So satisfying and beautiful.
2. Silky smooth
We don’t have to see her face to appreciate her silky smooth hair! Long or short, her locks look super healthy. We love that for her.
3. Stunning blondie
She could have floor length hair or a bald head and she would still look fabulous. This before and after is just proof of that!
4. Cut and color
So you wanna chop off all your hair… But why stop there? Take it the extra mile and dye it silver too, while you’re at it!
5. Goddess
Perfect! Beautiful! Goddess! We love to see it!
6. New era
“Turned 30,” this lady shared. “Feels like a new era in my life, so I needed new hair! Asked my stylist to chop it all off. Still not used to seeing myself in the mirror!”
7. Great decision!
“Thank you so much for the hair advice! Decided to go short and I’m loving it. Here’s my before and after photo!” We’re glad you love it because so do we!
8. Brave
It took this lady 3 chops to get there but she finally did it and we’re so proud of her! “I was finally brave enough to get it as short as I wanted,” she wrote.
9. Not mad!
“Did a big chop today to get my own hair color back. I was a bit scared to do it since I’ve never had my hair this short, but I’m not even mad.” Go girl!
10. Bye bye, damaged hair!
“Decided to go for the big chop and let go of my damaged hair!” Good for you, lady! Better to start fresh, right?
11. Bite the bullet!
“Finally bit the bullet and got a pixie!” It might feel hard to do it but once you do… It feels so good!
12. Both are amazing
With that rich hair color and stunning makeup to match, we’re pretty sure this woman could pull off any haircut she wants. Both before and after look so good!
13. Great both ways!
She posted these photos to the internet asking which haircut suited her better but we have to say that both are pretty amazing. All that matters is how it makes you feel and your personal preference!
14. Nineteen years
This person finally cut their hair after 19 years of no haircuts. That’s a long time! What a big change!
15. Lucky guy
“Posted my girlfriend here a few days ago and a lot of people requested a before and after pic! So here you go!” We have to say this is one lucky guy! How gorgeous is she?!
16. Dramatic change to pixie
This women’s hair wasn’t just long — it was like, 8 feet long. So this is such a massive transformation!
17. Well that was short-lived!
This person had short hair and then spent two years growing it back out…. Just to cut it again. Gotta follow your heart, that’s for sure.
18. So fresh
We’re pretty sure there’s nothing more satisfying than getting a fresh new ‘do in the salon. This looks amazingly fresh. Who agrees?
19. Inspired by Ruby Rose
“I’ve been dreaming of a pixie for years and finally jumped today! Ruby Rose was my inspiration. Love it!” We love it too, girl.
20. Subtle
Her hair was already pretty short so this is a subtle transformation. However, it still feels like such a major difference. Two separate people is what this looks like!
21. Change in cut and color
This lady went from long, soft blonde highlights to short, chocolate brown hair. We have to say this transition is major. So chic and elevated!
22. Sophisticated
The pixie cut frames her face so well. And this hair color is marvelous. She looks so sophisticated!
23. Not fair
It’s not fair that this gal can rock the long hair and the short hair. Save some good looks for us! It’s too good!
24. Brand new start
It’s never too late to chop off all your hair and dye it a completely different color. It doesn’t matter if you’ve had the same look your whole life. Change it and see how great you feel!
25. SO cute
We get the feeling that this girl looks cute no matter what her hair looks like. It’s all in the face, right?!
26. New person, who dis?
Sorry, can’t come to the phone right now (because she’s not here anymore). We’re looking at a brand-new person and she’s fabulous.
27. Wild
This lady had such beautiful, thick, brunette hair. But she looks just as stunning with short hair. Wild!
28. So soft
Okay, not to be creepy but… Her hair looks so soft. She can rock any cut with that texture, to be honest!
29. Killin’ the pixie!
This lady looks so effortless as she totally kills this pixie! Nailed it no problem. Hopefully she keeps it for a bit because it’s stunnin’!
30. Who is that?!
We keep saying this but seriously… This looks like two completely different people. We’re finding it really hard to believe that the only thing that has changed here is the hair!
31. Shortest it’s ever been
“It’s the shortest it’s ever been,” this Reddit user shared. “Still getting used to it,” she added. We can imagine — it’s a huge change!
32. Wowza!
Is it just us, or does she look like a completely different person? “You pull this off beautifully,” someone wrote on Reddit. So kind.
33. Lovin’ the support!
“My fiancee opted for a completely new look and she is slaying it,” we’re loving the support. She absolutely deserves it!
34. “Chopped it all off”
This lady doesn’t need to tell us she chopped off her hair — we can clearly tell! What a massive — and beautiful — change!
35. Such a big difference
“I posted my short hair yesterday, and a few people asked for a before and after photo,” she wrote. We can see why people wanted photos — this change is huge!
36. Clean and fresh
This girl looked great before but now she looks so clean and fresh. Not a single hair out of place. Hope she feels as fresh as she looks!
37. Flattering
The way her new haircut frames her face is so beautiful and flattering. And it really makes her face pop. Just look at those eyes!
38. Hello, bone structure!
This lady was already stunning with her super dark hair. But when she cut it short, it just brought her natural bone structure to a whole new level. Crazy how much of a difference a haircut can make!
39. Barely recognize her
Her hair used to be so long and now it’s… Well, quite the opposite! Amazing how she can pull off both, but the short hair really is so beautiful.
40. Who is she!
She looks so much happier and lighter in the second photo. The smile on her face!
41. Is this the same person?!
This can’t be the same person… Can it? Okay, it is. But we’re finding it hard to believe!
42. That jaw line!
Now that there’s not so much hair crowding around her face, her jaw line is really poppin’! She looks so fresh and much younger — pretty insane to process!
43. Gorgeous face!
You can tell she just wanted to get her hair off her face and it totally paid off. She looks incredible! She looks like a shining star in the after photo.
44. So sweet
She has such a sweet face, we’re pretty sure she can pull off any look! She’s so brave for chopping all of that hair off since it was so long in the before photo.
45. Model
We sure hope this lady started up her modeling career after this haircut because she looks like a supermodel! So pretty, she’s totally nailing this pose and this haircut.
46. Sultry
Wow, this girl sure does rock both hairstyles. So sultry no matter how long her hair is. Look at those eyes and stunning makeup!
47. It’s all in the attitude
This gal chopped her hair but she also bleached it, put on some stylish makeup, and revealed her tattoo. She went from looking like a sweet girl to an edgy rocker chick!
48. Completely new person
When she chopped off her hair, her eyes got about 3x bigger. Does anyone else see that? So beautiful and flattering.
49. The drama!
It’s amazing what a haircut, a little bit of makeup, and statement jewelry can do. She went from looking like a regular person to an absolute superstar! Have we seen her around Hollywood?!
50. So stylish
This lady looked so adorable before her haircut. But after the haircut — paired with the chic glasses and statement earrings — she just looks so stylish.
Do you love these short haircuts as much as we do? Would you ever chop off your hair?
