Does a pixie hairstyle taper in the back?

A pixie hairstyle does taper in the back. The pixie hairstyle also tapers on the sides around the ears. Typically, a person's ears show with a pixie hairstyle.

A pixie is a short yet versatile hairstyle. Pixies look great with a longer, side-swept bang, such as Anne Hathaway's brunette pixie or Michelle William's blond pixie. The style also looks great with very short bangs, such as Rihanna's dark, edgy pixie or Charlize Theron's platinum pixie. Pixies can also work on longer lengths, such as Faith Hill's wavy pixie. A pixie cut accentuates cheekbones and makes the eyes pop. The style is not for everyone, however, because pixies make a long face look longer.
