Katy Perry wants a Pixie hairstyle but not for too long

By Andrea Petrou on October 6th, 2011

Katy Perry would love to try a pixie haircut but only for a short time.

The 26-year-old beauty sports a short crop in her new campaign for the ghd Scarlet Collection and although Katy loves experimenting with her hair, she admitted the look is slightly too “bold” for her to maintain for very long.

She said: “The Snow White look is very different for me because it is a very short bob, but we were inspired by the Art Deco era – a bit flapper-y, a bit 1940′s. The furniture is very Art Deco. I love my nails in it, and my bob that has little curls coming around it.

“I think it’s a bold look for me, especially for the short hair, but I’ve actually had a pixie cut before. I used to have a black pixie cut when I was about 17-18-19 so I felt I was reliving that part of my life again. It’s really cute. I’d probably wear this look again, but I probably wouldn’t do it for long.”

The ghd Scarlet Collection includes a gorgeous heat resistant red satin styler roll bag, perfectly encasing the limited edition red plated stylers, along with two sectioning clips and protective plate guard.

Katy often experiments with different looks – recently dying her locks pink – but the brunette star misses her

natural blonde hair and would love to try “a long, hippie-esque blonde look with black roots”.

She said: “I might like trying being a blonde – a long, hippie-esque blonde with black roots. We’ll see.”

Get the look: Katy Perry’s new sophisticated bob

By admin on August 20th, 2010

Wow, Katy Perry’s gone all sophisticated on us. The singer/other half of Russel Brand was spotted out and about sporting a cute bob, which made her look alot more grown up.

And it seems we’re not the only ones who think so. Celebrity Stylist Mark Woolley, founder of Electric Hairdressing London, told us: “Katy Perry has once again demonstrated that she’s the ultimate retro chameleon with her sleek and sassy Lanvin inspired new bob.”

He added that her new “bold and fearless style means the world stops to take watch when she changes her hair style and this glossy Anna Wintour homage is bang on for this Autumn/Winter’s luxury hair trend.”

And he also had a few tips for those of you daring enough to copy Katy’s look (we would attempt it but our curls wouldn’t behave).

Step one: Apply a nourishing mask like Kérastase Masque Chroma Reflect  and wash out after 10 minutes for incredible mirror like shine that’s silky to the touch.

Step two: Using a large paddle brush, blowdry through the hair until it is almost dry, pointing the nozzle down the hair shaft to smooth hair and prevent frizz.

Step three: Create volume by using a large Denman Hot Barrel Brush and continue blowdrying through the lengths, starting at the roots until hair is dry.

Step four: Finish by wrapping the ends including the fringe around the barrel brush to frame the face and create shape.
