Get The Look: Anne Hathaway’s Pixie Crop

Anne Hathaway Hair

Growing out short hair is never easy. Fortunately for Anne Hathaway, who brutally hacked off her long brunette locks live on film in the screen adaptation of Les Miserables, she has had a team of pros on hand to make sure she looks chic every step of the way.

And it seems that now she has added a few inches, Anne has decided to stick with her new do: ‘I love the short-haired lifestyle,’ Hathaway told US Vogue. ‘I’m turning 30, and — I hope this isn’t obnoxious to say — I feel prettier, and much more myself. I guess I just feel much more satisfied with less now.’

Our favourite look so far, has been the work of New York based stylist Sascha Breuer who has given her pixie crop a more edgy look and swept her fringe off to the left side.

He gave us some tips on how to copy this style:  ‘To add an edge to Anne’s chic look, we decided to give the hair a messy and very textured feel and styled her longer, now more grown-out fringe to sweep casually to the side, gently grazing her face.’

‘To recreate this look I would recommend you blow-dry your hair and shape it slightly with your hands, after spraying a little bit of Wella SP Ocean Spritz Beach Texture Spray or salt water spray for added gut.’

‘Once the hair is completely dry, use a ceramic straightener on individual sections to enhance the hair and bring out the straighter, rock-chic feel of the look.’

‘I really like the Braun Satin Hair Series Straightener as it will allow you to adjust the temperature and personalize it to the needs of your hair. Mist some of the spray directly on your fingers and define single strands without weighing your hair down. This way, the spray stays on really light and your will let your hair look and feel natural, even though it has a strong hold level.’

‘Stylish and cool, without a fuss!’
