I’m not the person to ask. I raise my kids to knock someone out if they bully them 
She’s at that age where she is old enough (with guidance) to make decisions such as her haircuts. Of course, it’s always best to advise on the subject of being responsible for the outcome of her choices.
at 12, she should be able to pick her haircut! so what if she takes it out on you, you’re her rock!
Absolutely. Kids don’t have much control over their lives, and their hair is one thing they can “customize” about themselves without permanence. When my son was 13, he wanted blue color in his hair for his birthday. Once it grew out, I asked if he wanted to redo it, and he promptly said “nope”. Lol
Yes I did at that age with my kids
It will always grow out.
Who is the adult here
Let her experience it - a pixie isn’t that bad. Suggest a medium length one
Let her cut her dang hair. It will grow back. Why would someone bully her for a pixie?
Choose your battles. There will be many. Hair will grow back.
I decided early on, of all the things I was willing to die on that hill for, hair was not one of them. You can change the color, do a different style to the cut, perm it, straighten it, and the best thing, when all else fails, it grows back. However, I would make her promise not to take anything out on me and dad, then hold her to that promise.
Its her hair her choice
Who are the parent(s) in that 
?
Seriously… When i was 12 no choice… Lol
Wow. So when sh*t goes bad for her at school, you center your own victimhood instead.
She tells you something she WANTS and you do what? 
You send her to that sh*thole school, so it is your fault.
Hair grows back, unlike the results of your sh*tty parenting. Nice work.

My daughter has been called a boy on more than one occasion, but you know what, she smiles and goes on. For every one boy comment, she has had 20 compliments. She loves her hair. And it grows back. Don’t let other’s opinions force her to not be her true self.

My daughter used to get bullied at school Candice and you know what her dad did kind of said there’s that girl at bullies me and then her dad dropped her off on the corner and said you go kick that f****** b****'s ass and you know what Candace did kind of kicked her ass up and down the street she was never bullied again
My daughter had long curly hair and wanted it cut short. I said yes because it’s her hair, she wants a cut and it grows back.
If your afraid of her getting bullied and she’s confident and doesn’t care what others think, that’s good! She’s be fine

Let her do it! She needs to find her freedom and hair grows back but these lessons will last her a lifetime.
I had a situation happen about the same time and age. It’s below 
I was about 12 when I rocked a pixie. I was only ever teased once. I wore a dress and this mean little boy had some not so nice words to say and would offend the transgender community easily. I told him you know who I am and know I am a girl. You however are a jerk. And I kept walking to class. I was upset for a moment when I took a deep breath and realized no matter what I am beautiful and he will never be until he changes his attitude.
It’s HER hair, and hair grows back. Let her do what she wants with it. Why is this even an issue

Yes. My niece is 12 and she discusses every haircut or style she is interested in with my sister. My niece then decides which style she wants. She is always beautiful. I’m sure your daughter will be too. A few of my nieces friends have the pixie cut and it is to cute! She liked the same style your daughter wants. It’s popular right now. You could also Have her Google or get a picture of the style she wants and put picture of the pixie cut next to her face and see how it looks.
My mom always said you can do whatever you what to your hair ( dye, cut) as long as there is no proof. Lol. My sister had green hair at 12-13. Yet there were no school pictures showing it. Lol.
Yes, she should definitely pick her haircut and tell her who cares if the other kids say something it’s her hair not there’s
Yes. Its her hair. Let her do what she wants with it. Its only hair, it does grow back.
Yes, of course, let her have the hair cut she wants. It doesn’t hurt anything. Just ask her if she thinks she might be teased and if she is, how she is going to deal with that. Let her know it’s her decision, not yours and you’re not going to allow her to blame you guys if she doesn’t like it or is teased.
Let her ho to salon…my 4 year old grand daughter just cut her own her .what a mess
A friend took her to salon got pixsy cut so cuts .for what they had yo work with.
Yes, let her. It is her decision. Make sure you aren’t making this about YOU. It is just hair. Hair grows back. I always let my kids get whatever kind of haircuts they wanted, even when they were as young as 5. It is a form of self expression. If she hates it, she will learn that she doesn’t like that style. Big deal. It will grow back. If she wants to experment with color, let her. There are temp colors. Let her be her. Not be you.
Let her have it. It’s only hair and it will grow back.
I let my daughter (9) choose what she wants done with her hair (within reason, she wants it highlighted but I don’t want the chemicals to hurt her hair). If there is healthy and safe hair dye, please comment, Id love to ket her express herself! It is her body 🤷🏼♀ I have taught her that other peoples opinions shouldn’t matter, what matters is if she is happy with the hairstyle, clothes etc
Yes, let her. Idk who needs to hear this, but for the majority of people hair grows back. Not a life commitment…it’s a haircut
It’s hair, it will grow back. It’s not a tattoo. Pixie cuts can be cute.
Yes. It’s only hair. It will grow back.
Darling it’s hair it will grow back, and trust me the other battles you’ll have this shouldn’t be one.

The haircut isn’t the issue that needs to be addressed but getting your daughter to take responsibility for HER actions is imperative.
Yes, it’s only hair and she’s 12… she needs to expresse herself to find herself.
Absolutely. Her hair, her choice. She should be allowed to be herself.
who is the parent and why don’t she understand sometimes things are her fault and she better be learning that right now or she will never have a good life or any friends or a real marriage later in life
Find an app that allows you to Photoshop and show her how it will look on her. Then let her decide after she’s had the opportunity to see it.
It’s only hair. It will grow back out.
12 is old enough to let her decide how she wants her hair. Just remind her that it’s her decision, so if she pulls the “you said I could and now everyone hates me” card, you can remind her that she made that decision. It’s a good way to still be her mother, but letting her begin to learn the consequences of her actions. Or it could be just fine. At some point, we have to let them make decisions that are age appropriate. Cutting her hair is not that big of a deal, it grows back.
MY daughter wanted to cut her waist length hair and her dad let her and after that she wore a scarf until it grew out. She was 6 or 7.
It’s only hair. It will grow out.

I had one at 12 and was teased mercilessly
Yes! It will grow back.
Let her be herself and express herself. She’s becoming a young women. Our children need to know not everyone is gonna like them in life. And that’s ok!!! Cause she only wants to surround herself with the people that love her for her not a fake image. You never know it might fit her. My daughter shaved half her head. I wanted to cry. But she rocks it. And it fits her personality perfectly. I said ok to what I thought was her normal cut lol kids. NO REGRETS
Have her “clearly” understand the consequences of her decision!!
Is she setting herself up for criticism? Perhaps something more modern and not quite so short.
Pick your battles, this is not one
Go for it! It’s in fashion! The bully’s are the losers!
Do a modified version first.
Yup … it will grow back …
Choosebyour battles wisely
Its a good opportunity for a necessary life experience…

The good thing is…no matter what - it grows back.
I’d go a little shorter but not pixie style and see how it goes. If no bullying then after a certain period of time then I could see letting here do the pixie cut
Let her choose her haircut. She is 12. Remind her how other children can be cruel,(kids will make fun of eachother for anything) but teach her to stay true to HERSELF and to wear/do what brings HER joy…. If things get tough at school and she takes it out on you and your spouse, it is both your jobs to help her deal with her emotions in a more healthy way. Be there to gently guide her to treat the people she loves respectfully and remind her that pre-teen/teen life passes and she is always safe to express herself in ways that make her feel good despite other kid’s shitty behavior.
I say let’er get it cut the way she wants and tell’er ahead of time " You don’t wanna hear no shit about it after it’s done" PERIOD

BACK HER UP INSTEAD OF SHIELDING HER! Teach her that the world can be cruel sometimes but she shouldn’t back down from what SHE wants just because of others opinions. Show her your support and that no matter what, you will be there for her. Instead of saying no to her haircut because of school bullies she should be at the hair dresser getting her haircut and you should be at the principals office standing up for her and having the school system fix their bully issue. Unacceptable!

My daughter is Angela Maldonado who made the comment on here when she was around eight or nine she had hair down to the middle of her back I took her in for a trim and she wanted to get apexi also so I gave in and let her get it her dad was mad as a hornet but she liked it and it did grow back no she didn’t ask to get a cut short anymore so go ahead and let her do it it’ll grow back
Yes, she is old enough to decide how she wants her hair
Don’t let her. I am a hairdresser and my daughter who always had hair down to her butt wanted me to cut her hair to her shoulders. I said no, I’ll cut it to your bra and then if you don’t like it next week I’ll cut it shorter. She was madd. The next week she said I’m glad you didn’t cut it to my shoulders. She thought it was too short at her bra! Mommy knows best! I’ve have had several clients wanting the extreme change such as this and they have cried. Subtle changes always!
let her cut it .if she doesn’t like it it will grow back but She made the decision
Okay so my daughter asked me and begged for the same thing before school started and she is also 12. I was so against it and thought about people bullying her in school over it. Because it was her birthday and my whole family convinced me I took her and she looks soooo cute and let me tell you!!! Now I see a ton of girls at her school with the same cut. Her confidence went up so much after her cut so I don’t regret a damn thing. 
She was rocking her pixie and it’s grown out a lot already so it’s time for a trim. Let her self express herself mamma!
Yes!!! My son is growing his out. They are expressing theirselves
I would let her choose. Let her feel confident to stick up for what she likes and rock it
