Medium length hair can be the most versatile and easy to care for while providing plenty of ways to style it, say stylists at Latest Hairstyles. Medium cut hair, which ranges from just below the jaw line to the shoulders, can be styled in looks that are often seen with short hair and long hair. Medium length hair looks good on most face shapes as well.
Bob
The bob is one of those cuts that can be cut a little shorter or longer and still retain its flexibility. A bob can be flared to accent features on the face or layered to accentuate the neck when it is cut close to the shoulders. Curl the ends of a bob out for a little playful flare or blow-dry them under for a more conservative, professional look. A bob also can leave enough hair for an updo using pins and clips for a sophisticated style. Layer the top of a bob to add height to thin hair or to layer and thin out thick tresses. A bob is a good choice for curly or straight hair. Bangs look good with a bob and can be short and jagged or longer and parted. Sweep bangs to the side or fluff them up in front for a change in styles.
Shag
Hairdressers at Latest Hairstyles say that a shag can provide a stylish sexy look for medium length hair cuts. A shag is a multi-layered cut that also can vary in length so that it conforms to a sleek neck or trails just to the tops of the shoulders. A shag can sport layered bangs, but typically is cut so that the bangs are parted to the side to blend with the overall cut. A shag haircut makes for a good wash-and-wear style because most of the styling is in the cut and hair hangs in a finished look. According to the stylists at Medium Hairstyles, a shag is a good transition cut for people with long hair that has developed split ends. Layers in a shag can be cut to highlight the best features on the face and add texture and definition to limp hair.
Curly
People with naturally curly hair can find a number of medium length styles that work with natural waves and tight curls. Keeping curly hair at medium length provides a variety of choices for styling it. Hair can be layered to thin it out and guide the styles. Longer pieces can be pulled up with a clip for a formal look or tied in the back of the neck for convenience. Curly medium hair is easy to scrunch in place with styling products meant to condition and moisturize the ends, the area that is the hardest to maintain. With the proper hair care products, a curly, medium-length style can be a head turner. Stylists at Medium Hairstyles point to actresses with curly hair and the fact that most of them stick with a medium length, near their shoulders, for the best versatility and styling options.
