pixie cuts were popularized first in the late 1950s when audrey hepburn wore the style in her debut film roman holiday, and later in the 1960s by actress mia farrow and british supermodel twiggy.

according to elle, the pixie cut has been worn by "some of the biggest, boldest, and bravest stars throughout history. the original jaw-dropping moment in celebrity hair history was certainly the pixie cut. long, luscious locks are upheld as the ideal image of beauty, so the chop is regarded by many as a fearless moment of change and bravery.

it started with vidal sassoon giving actress mia farrow a (now iconic) gamine 'do for her role inrosemary's baby. nearly 50 years later, it's still one of the most talked about cuts ever.
