I tried 7 tools on pixies over 50.

Only this beginner friendly “Root Lift Technology”gave it long-lasting volume (without burning the neck)

Here’s what nobody tells you about struggling to style a professional pixie over 50:

It was never “hard” or “a skill-issue”. Your styling device was just never built for it.


Look, In my 12 years as a hairstylist I have seen 2.700+ short-haired women over 50 who tried everything from the $70 round brush and dryer that needs two hands and lots of styling experience over the $60 flat iron that burns the back of the neck to the $90 corded hot air brush with a barrel too fat for a pixie section. And yes, even the $599 one with four attachments didn't work because not one was sized for a pixie.


That’s why I recommend every one of my short-haired clients this award-winning hot brush with “Root Lift technology” instead (I even use it on my own pixie daily!)

1. The "Root Lift Technology" Goes The Extra Mile

You know it best: Every round brush, flat iron, and hot air brush makes your pixie look full for an hour… And flat again by lunch.


And there's one single reason why: ANY of these tools are only designed for long hair. They style the crown - because this is where long hair gets its volume.


But styling a pixie isn't the same as styling long hair at all. Instead, long-lasting volume in pixies always begins with styling the roots of your hair – exactly where none of those tools ever reach…


This hot brush with patented "Root Lift Technology" is the only short hair tool I've seen in 12+ years behind the chair that styles the roots AND the crown – For a dead easy salon-quality pixie anyone can do from home in 5 minutes.

2. The Perfect Pixie In 4:12 Minutes – Even On Your Worst Hair Days

On a busy morning, you don't just not feel like restyling for 20 minutes – you don't have the time either.


The Go Brush Pro is heated up in less than a minute and for real volume you just need to brush up once from the roots over the flat spots at the crown and around your ears – just like with a normal brush.


And you know what? I set a timer the first time I tried it on second-day hair: 4:12 minutes from heating it up until it looked like I just left the salon.

3. High-Quality Pixie = Natural Face Lifting (Here Is Why)

This is the part I didn’t expect: A flat pixie doesn't just look like you rolled out of bed – it drags your whole face down.


The moment the Go Brush Pro styled my roots, my cheekbones came forward, my eyes looked more open, and my face read awake instead of tired. And it held that lift the whole day.

4. 5x Lighter Than The Round Brush + Dryer Combo

Styling a pixie with a round brush + dryer may work – But at what cost? It took 20 minutes of full concentration, the cord kept getting in my way, and my arm gave out before I even reached the back of my head.


The Go Brush Pro is cordless and at 6.1 oz it weighs 5 times less than the roundbrush + dryer combo – so my arm doesn't give out before the back is done. Styling the back of my head has never been this easy.


I've recommended it to 1.000+ of my pixie clients since, and the two things I hear most often: it saves them 15 minutes every morning, and their arm never hurts anymore.

5. No Burnt Neck (It’s Literally Impossible)

Every short-haired client I have has burned an ear or the back of her neck reaching for those bottom pieces with a flat iron or a curling wand.


With the Go Brush Pro it’s literally impossible. The bristles are ceramic-coated and anti-scald, so you can work right down at the scalp without flinching.
