Why Maggie Gyllenhaal Really Got a Pixie: The Full Story Right Here

Apr 10, 2013 @ 11:10 am

Maggie Gyllenhaal stepped out with a shorter ‘do a few weeks ago, a look she chose unintentionally. “I did a film in Ireland with Michael Fassbender and I cut it in a bowl cut for that,” the 35-year-old told to reporters at the New York launch party for Kate Young’s collection for Target. “It was awesome for the movie, but then when I was home I couldn’t make it work!” The Brooklyn resident then enlisted New York hairstylist Serge Normant to remedy her situation. “I walked into his salon and said, ‘Can you fix it?’ and it came out looking like this.” And this isn’t the first time she’s been a member of the Pixie Party. “When I was about 25, I had really short hair, and I loved it, but I always thought I would never do it again,” Gyllenhaal continued. “But it feels great to have short hair! And it’s nice now that the weather’s gotten warm.” Not to mention, it also looks fabulous.

Don’t Pull a “Hannah” — How to Cut Your Own Hair, Smartly

Mar 21, 2013 @ 11:30 am

You weren’t the only one screaming ‘nooooooooooo’ at your TV when Hannah (Lena Dunham) cut her own hair during the season finale of HBO’s Girls. The cringe-worthy moment—the climax of her anxiety-driven breakdown—was enough to turn anyone brave enough to do a DIY chop off the idea. But, if you must, we caught up with celebrity hairstylist Tommy Buckett of the Marie Robinson Salon (@mariesalon) in New York to find out how to do it with more success than Hannah Banana. To start, don’t look at a picture, like she did. “If you have a picture that you’re trying to replicate, you’re probably setting yourself up for failure,” said Buckett, who is responsible for the gorgeous cuts seen on Emma Stone, Elisabeth Moss, and Ashlee Simpson. “When one decides to cut their own hair, it’s usually an impulse decision, so just go for it and have fun!” Herewith, his four top tips:

1. EDGY LOOKS WORK
“This will typically work best with a much edgier look,” said Buckett. “Think Kurt Cobain, Edie Sedgwick, or Debbie Harry.”

2. CUT YOUR HAIR WHEN IT IS DRY
“Always cut your hair dry so you can see what’s happening while you’re doing it. [It will help to] work with your natural texture.”

3. INVEST IN SCISSORS, AT THE VERY LEAST
“Go and buy a decent pair of scissors at a beauty supply store,” he said. (Try Sally Hansen’s Do Your Do Styling Shears; $12 at ulta.com.) “And it’s probably best to ask a friend to help out with the back.” Just not a guy like Laird!

4. YES, YOU CAN DO LAYERS
“For layers, just grab where you think you need them and cut slowly,” suggested Buckett. “Another way to cut layers on your own is to tip upside down and chop into the hair. You can always cut more hair, but you can never go back!”
