    Thank you so much! I got a pixie cut and found out I have an annoying cowlick in the back of my head! Love this styling hack with a comb.

    When I first saw this video my hair was a lot longer and I decided not to try your suggestions in the video. My new haircut is similar to the models in the video and now I really appreciate your techniques as I have about four of those growth patterns/cowlick’s. Thank you...

    AWESOME! No, really. I just got very brave with a pixie without a clue on how to style it. Just because I saw a picture of Anne Hathaway with her pixie and felt in love. I been searching all over the web for a tutorial on how to properly style a pixie and all that keep popping out were pomades and messy pixies and no! that's not what I wanted! I want my pixie to look flat, polished, soft and shiny, just like Anne's one, or even Emma Watson. And this is the tutorial for it! I even loved the products recommendations, for moisture, shine and softness! Perfect, THANK YOU!

    Very useful video, as I happen to have hair texture similar to what hers is described, and my cut is also fairly similar. I'm still perfecting and adapting the blowdry shown to my actual hair, however, it's looking promising. I would have liked the video to be longer. For example, was some wax/paste put in the back textured area of her hair, or just generally were any other products used? And were the two products at the start heat protectants? I have been practicing the technique with products I happen to have at hand, rather than rushing out and buying the recommended products. Eventually I probably will though if they are still available, and accessible in Australia.

    Hey Cindy, this is the best way to blow dry thicker coarse hair too when it comes to the fringe area. You may need to also use a small round brush at the end to polish the ends of your hair if it tends to be more frizzy.

    Hey Heather. You can use a similar technique to what is shown in the video. Start with very wet hair and use the comb to put lots of tension on the hair as you work it back and forth. The more directions you move the hair as it is drying, the better!

    Would you ever consider making a video of me or not to help my pixie platinum cut at age 66 to cure my crown whorl cowlick? I need help and do not have the money to try different products, my hair is thin, love the cut, but do not want any spike in the back or products that look like i could actually break off a piece of my hair. I have never felt pretty, but love the front, but the back ugh!!! I want the back to look windblown but not feel like I have a helmet on my head. Would you consider helping a. Love Bob’s video’s as he is so down to earth. Here is a pic from the front.
