Medium Length Haircut Ideas

Shoulder-length hair can provide an ideal transitional cut for exploring various styles, whether bangs or pompadour. There’s sure to be something here that works perfectly. Try a wavy style that adds texture and movement, or opt for the straight pin-straight look for an elegant touch.

All-One-Length Lob

Those with straight hair should try this long lob to add volume. Choppy, razored strands are loose and unruly yet arranged in such a way as to look incredibly flattering; its layers highlight cheekbones and forehead while her peek-a-boo bangs frame her face further. Medium-length haircuts that reach between the ear level and chin provide an elegant frame to frame any face shape, no matter the age. This sleek one-length style can be styled from beachy waves to half-up/half-down updos for added versatility.

Collarbone-Grazing Lob with Choppy Bangs

An above-the-shoulders lob is given an added dose of style with choppy curtain bangs and a deep side part. This style works exceptionally well on oval faces and with all blonde shades. This adorable shoulder-length lob is the ideal style to add to your collection of medium haircut ideas. Feathered layers add texture and movement for straight hair, while its deep side part highlights your cheekbones and jawline. Add highlights to your lob for added variation and versatility! Copper red balayage or blonde money-piece highlights are classic options; try them to elevate the style.

Blunt Lob with Straight Bangs

A classic medium-length blunt lob is an exquisite option for medium-length locks, but it becomes genuinely chic and timeless when combined with straight bangs. The precise edge creates an eye-catching finish while still looking modern and framing the face beautifully. The bob is one of the few haircuts that suit every face shape and texture – even thin locks! Request that your stylist create a shorter version with angled layers or go for a full-on inverted lob if your locks are thicker; pair this look with an accent braid to make your style pop!

Side Bangs

A side-swept fringe makes an elegant finishing touch for any medium-length bob hairstyle. Ask your stylist to create a long, swoopy edge that rests above your ears and adds soft beach waves that soften your features. This look works for any event, from semiform meetings to date nights! Classic, swoopy bangs from the early 2000s are making a comeback! This style frames the face, adds volume, and looks great on any woman – pair it with a sleek bob and voluminous blowout for a stunning look that is sure to turn heads.

Angled Bob

A classic blonde angled bob is an elegant way to combine classy, rounded strands at the back with elongated front layers and side bangs to narrow and slim the face. Try this look with wavy hair for an elegant, feminine style that complements any outfit. If your hair has fine strands, your stylist can create an angled bob with more volume up top and longer layers around the face to make your style easier to manage. Copper highlights will bring brightness to complete the look. Heart-shaped faces benefit from having an angled bob with plenty of volume that skims the face-skimming length, making your nose and jaw appear slimmer. This style works beautifully whether or not bangs are present.

Textured Lob with Dark Plum Highlights

A blunt lob with side-parted curtain bangs will frame your face and add drama. It is also an excellent option for women with thin or fine hair, as its layers help add volume and lift to create a book and lift. A long lob with layers is an effortless beach look that flatters most facial structures. Easy to style using sea salt spray, this style works exceptionally well on women with naturally wavy locks. If you want a striking and gorgeous hair color to complement your lobs, why not try this silver hue? It makes an eye-catching contrast against its otherwise smooth cut and works beautifully on all skin tones.

Messy Waves

Wavy locks add instant texture and dimension to any haircut, especially if you prefer a layered style with choppy ends and mid-shaft highlights. If you want an effortless medium-length wavy hairstyle with lots of movement that won’t let up easily, then try Allan Davison’s messy look from YouTuber Allan Davison; start by curling your locks using a 1-inch barrel curler before brushing out for an undone finish and add texture spray at the roots for added swoon-worthy style! This bob also boasts a deep side part to control long, wavy locks or soften prominent features you wish to hide.
