During an appointment to flat iron a client’s hair, I nearly burned her because someone started to ask questions about the mixie shag. I became enthusiastic. The haircut is stunning! It appears to be a combination of a shag and a pixie cut. It offers the advantages of having hair shorter, without the feeling of being trapped in a style. I adore this look, especially on women in their 40s, because it is low maintenance, and everyone will say you look incredible without knowing what you did, which is the best compliment.
What intrigues me most, and this is something I’ve observed more the longer I’ve been working with this shape, is the way it responds so differently depending on your texture and your density. I had a client last year who had long layers the same since 2009. She was so scared to go short. After the shag cut, she sent me a selfie from the parking lot. That reaction is common with this haircut. It’s really the independent layering in the cut that seems to activate and energize the whole face. It photographs extremely well, too. Here are my favorite styles that work best with this cut.


#1: Silver Textured Shag with Feathered Layers That Actually Move
This describes what I think of when someone says, “I want to go silver and still look like myself.” The feathered layers give you movement and make it look like you have more hair, and will not weigh your hair down. If you have finer hair, this is especially good because it takes off the right amount of weight so everything can lift. The silver is very clean and looks nice. On straight hair days, you might need to add root volume, but other than that, this look is low maintenance.


#2 Bright Blonde Pixie Shag That Thick Hair Was Made For
This is one of those hairstyles where having thick hair is actually a plus! A lot of pixie shags can be unflattering if there isn’t enough hair to work with, but this style actually gets better with more. The slide cutting gives it texture without hollowing things out, so you keep volume while getting shape & definition. The bright blonde with darker roots adds a depth, making it look more expensive than expected considering the maintenance. The trade-off is upkeep on that blonde, obviously, you’re going to be in the salon for toner touch-ups. The cut is so satisfying on thick hair that it’s worth it.


#3 Brunette Wavy Bob with Big, Bouncy Curls
I woke up in a Nancy Meyers movie and I am feeling it. The curls on this bob give it a lot of personality and are a great way to make it look like you have a lot more hair (great for thinner hair). It’s nice that this look is short enough that it won’t get annoying and you won’t have to touch it all day. With that being said, I do have to say that this hairstyle relies on the curls a lot. If you want your morning routine to be quick, and your definition of quick is just running your fingers through your hair, then this isn’t the easiest style for you. Getting this is going to take a commitment of about ten minutes and a 1.25 inch curling iron. You are committing to that time.


#4 Burgundy Bob with Swoopy Layers That Feel Fun
Usually I don’t pick tones like this, but I love it! Burgundy can go down the wrong direction really fast, but this one sits perfectly and feels rich and intentional. The multiple layers create movement, and lift hair and create the illusion of more volume, which will really help fine hair. The length is easy to maintain, but this burgundy will start shifting in a few weeks so budget for color refreshes. If you like to keep to a more neutral color palette, this is a good way to try something a bit more adventurous without being too crazy.


#5 Tousled Copper Bob with That “I Didn’t Try” Look
Achieving that effortless look takes a lot of skill and planning for that specific cut. The warm copper is everything. It’s one of those colors that brightens the face without looking fake. The tousle is awesome, While the slight asymmetry means your eye keeps moving so it never looks flat or predictable adds volume for thinner hair. This is a style you can throw in some sea salt spray and go. You might need to do some more to keep it from looking too neat, but we call that fresh looks and damage control.


#6 Caramel Tousled Pixie That Just Works
This cut is perfect for those who are apprehensive about getting short hair. It offers lots of length to hold onto. The soft caramel is a nice subtle color and the waves are just enough to give it that relaxed feel. This is great to keep the cut from looking too harsh and structured, which tends to be a popular worry when it comes to getting pixie cuts. These layers target exactly where added volume is needed the most, including for those with fine hair, and the rest just relaxes and falls into place. The best part about it is the length sits just above the nape, which offers a lovely clean finish at the back without creating a solid line. On days when it dries a bit too flat, you’ll want to give it a good tousle, but that’s about the extent of styling needed.


#7 Chestnut Curled Bob with Bangs That Don’t Annoy You
These bangs are not Pinterest bangs, meaning you won’t have to round brush your hair every morning to create that blowout look. They are stunning, light, and airy, and give a fantastic face-framing effect. This is how they get that effortless and beautiful look. The chestnut color is just so incredibly stunning and adds a warm glow to your face without washing you out. The curls in your hair will give your hair great movement and make your hair look nice and not like an awkward bob. This is the haircut for you if you want to look polished for the office, cute for after work drinks, and fun, and don’t want to change your outfit. However, if the humidity is high, the curls may not last, so you should bring anti-humidity spray.


#8 Brunette Cropped Bob with Sneaky-Good Layers
When clients ask for bangs, it is especially fun to give them an apparently complex asymmetric style that is actually really simple. Faint asymmetry can be used to make things more interesting rather than harsher, and with those cheekbone bangs, they will certainly lift your face. The added layers will help lift the face as well, and they do work for this model. For thicker hair, more movement can be achieved with layers without the addition of excess weight. Straight hair irritations will be minimal with this style, as it will be very low maintenance with just a simple blow dry and go. The layers will need to be in good condition as they will be quite dull. For a neat look, a trim will be needed every five to six weeks.


#9 Espresso Tapered Bob with Those Perfect Swooping Bangs
When clients with swoopy bangs sit in my chair, I get even more excited because bangs are so eye-catching! This espresso color is a rich enough of a blend to fit with the grays, and it’s a non-covering, deliberate color choice. The taper gives you structure, and with fine to medium hair, the volume really does build itself, which is great. You’ll want a round brush for those bangs. They look the very best with a bit of blow dry direction, and once you master it, it only takes about three minutes.


#10 Textured Bob with Wispy Bangs and a Silver Streak
What I love about this style is how the natural gray is just… left alone. The gray is woven directly into the cut like it was supposed to be there, because it was. And it gives the whole thing an authenticity that you wouldn’t get with an all-over color. The wisp bangs are soft enough so that they don’t take over your whole face, and the textured layers at the nape create enough volume that it makes medium-density hair look really full. If you have been thinking about stepping back from color services, this is a stunning way to let your silver show without it looking like an awkward grow-out phase.


#11 Auburn Tousled Pixie with a Bit of Edge
The tawny color brightens up the face, and the tousled finish creates a playful looseness in the cut that keeps it from being too cropped or conservative. For styling, length has been added on the top which is fabulous for days when you want it messier and particularly for days when you need it looking polished. This kind of layered pixie is a great option for thinning hair because the layered texture offers the illusion of density where it is wanted without looking too bulky. Pop a little styling paste through the top and you’re done!


#12 Espresso Tousled Pixie with Highlights That Look Like Yours
Beautifully done natural highlights give you an appearance of sun exposure, which is the intent. On fine or thinning hair, shorter backs with longer textured tops are some of the best ways to create the illusion of greater volume without anyone realizing that was the end-goal. The whole look is read as a style choice rather than a tactical one, and that is what is crucial. If there is any wave or curl in your hair, it will want to keep shape neat with regular trims since it can begin to mushroom in the back if you leave it for too long.


#13 Silver Layered Crop That Makes Your Eyes Pop
This hairstyle is great because of how well it draws attention to her eyes. The silver hue of her hair really stands out, and with the bangs being side-swept and the short layers being cut unevenly, most of the focus is directed to the center of her face. The short layers in this hairstyle really provide a lot of movement and fullness along with the hair’s texture, and so the look is also very fine and medium hair friendly and ideal for those hair types. To keep from getting a brassy look, the color will take some upkeep, but her cut will really require a minimum amount of upkeep. This is also a great way to embrace going grey, since the toned color doesn’t look accidental, but rather looks elevated and intentional.


#14 Platinum Wavy Shag That Looks Fuller Than It Is
Obviously, this cut looks awesome, the personality from the movement in the hair is infectious, and the jawline length makes lighter and finer hair look more full. With platinum, you’ll need regular maintenance to keep it from getting yellow. That effort is justified, as lighter colors don’t brighten your face as much as this shade does. Plus, it’s a shag, so it looks fab on day 3 or 4 hair!


#15 Golden Blonde Tousled Layers for Days When You Just Want Easy
This cut is one that you don’t have to overthink – it just works! The golden blonde is warm and inviting and the soft waves give it just the right amount of texture. The chin length is ideal because it is universally flattering and it is a nice contrast to longer cuts. This cut is about ease and simplicity, and that’s exactly what it brings. The color will grow out with the cut, and because lighter colors tend to fade quickly, you’ll probably need a touch up. When considering a cut, I always think about how it will grow out and what that experience will be. I strive to ensure that you don’t feel guilty if you miss a trim.


#16 Jet-Black Curly Shag with Bangs That Have Personality
I like the bangs on this one. They are full and dramatic, and go from “short haircut” to “oh, she has a whole thing going on.” The color black is solid, and the loose curls soften it a little so it doesn’t feel so harsh. It’s cut a little shorter in the back to keep it looking youthful and edgy, plus all that texture on top gives something to mess around with. To be honest though, this one is a little more on the styled side of the maintenance scale. Those curls will want your attention, and they will let you know if they’re not getting it, especially if you’re in a humid area.


#17 Light Ash Blonde Crop That’s Actually Easy to Do
With soft cuts, you look nice, but not like you’re showing off. The soft bangs look good and just frame you without being too present, and whether you have thinner, medium or even thicker, that texture will do lovely things without you! With cuts like this, you look like you made an effort just by running your fingers through your hair and putting a bit of volumizing mousse at the ends. You’ll have to keep an eye on the crop as it starts growing, but don’t stress about having to put in effort to style it.


#18 Salt-and-Pepper Pixie with Texture That Does the Work For You
Choppy layers are built-in styled volume and movement, meaning after the cut, the hair pretty much styles itself, and with the thinner hair, this is the goal. The scattered salt and pepper blend work with the structure of your hair, looking intentional. For Colour variation looking closer to a grey, With a cut this cool, a natural grey is beautiful and re-frames the conversation around grey hair. This is not “going grey”, this is a style choice unlike the shape which requires regular upkeep to keep the fluff from growing into one another, but is about as wash-and-go as a pixie cut gets.


#19 Platinum Textured Shag with Real Energy
This cut has so much attitude! It has a jagged, layered finish that allows ease of movement with added stretch. Great for fine to medium hair with a natural finish, free from harsh looks. Platinum is bright and unapologetic. With that color, yes you are committing to maintenance, but if you’re going to go platinum, you might as well! The face frame is well done with the ability to soften a look without taking away from the face, and although it is a small detail, it changes so much. Having such short styling time is a luxury.


#20 Lavender Pixie Shag That’s More Wearable Than You’d Think
Before you say no to lavender, consider this. This color brightens your face, especially if you have a lighter skin tone. The pixie length makes it easy to manage, and the shag layers help give thin hair more dimension without the weight. It is playful but not as much as to cross into costume territory. The color will need frequent touch ups so keep that in mind. The style is one of the most fun you can have at this length with fine hair.


#21 Chestnut Tousled Pixie That Softens Everything
The feather detailing stands out to me because it adds movement to the cut without it being distracting. The chestnut color works for all skin tones, and the color doesn’t make it look like you just got your hair done. For hair that is naturally straight, this will add life to the hair. If you have an angular face, this haircut will help to soften the features. The haircut is low maintenance, but you will need to come in for regular trims to maintain the shape of the cut. With a pixie cut, you will not have to spend time on styling it as it is a low upkeep cut.


#22 Sun-Kissed Copper Curly Bob That Adds Everything
Copper goes beautifully with warm skin tones, and I look forward to seeing how amazing it will look on the fair-to-medium-skinned clients I have in my chair. It’s like someone turned a light on in my face, and my curls are bouncing off my chin. Fine to medium hair will have a lot of body and movement with these curls. They’re cute and not too stiff. The layered curls I added are going to be a hit and create a lot of volume and thickness. The expression ‘the juice is worth the squeeze’ is especially applicable here, and I can promise you will be very happy with the outcome.


#23 Copper Pixie with a Soft Fringe That Just Sits Right
The copper pixie with fringe style is a great example of a classic cut that works on many different people. This style has a soft enough fringe that it can move freely and naturally without looking like it needs to be fixed, and the texured layers can take medium density hair and give it a nice shape. The contrast of the copper color is really nice for people with cooler skin. It can be flattering to the face because it brings color. To keep the copper nice and fresh you will have to come to the salon for cuts and color fairly often, but it is worth it because this style looks polished and expensive, even when you are running errands.


#24 Auburn Textured Shag That Sits Right at the Jawline
I have been recommending this look to people who want something with personality but don’t want to spend time styling it, and so far everyone has loved it. The jawline length, the ultimate bone structure enhancer, requires zero effort from you, and the texturized layers hide any thinning so skillfully that the only person who would know is your stylist. The rich, dimensional auburn color is stunning on softer face shapes as it beautifully frames them. You will want to get onto a regular trim schedule because the shape will lose its clean lines as it grows, but the maintenance is minimal. After your trim you can just exist and look good.


#25 Copper Tousled Shag with Movement for Days
This copper tousled shag looks stunning on medium to thick hair. It appears effortless, but the layering is very intentional. The layers are tousled enough that they create movement. Even when you are just sitting there, your hair looks alive. This warm copper color is exceptional; it grabs attention without being overstated. Some morning tousling is required to style your hair like this, and you will need to keep up with color refreshes, as copper can very quickly become a warm, brassy tone. The upkeep is totally worth it for the impact of this hairstyle.


#26 Rusty Copper Mixie Shag with Just the Right Amount of Volume
This is a true example of the saying \”less is more\”. The multi-dimensional rusty copper color is warm and welcoming without being too overpowering to the cut. The layered texturing offers a silky volume finish that feels effortless and not stiff. The finish is beautifully low maintenance. The tousled look is just that \”tousled\”. In fact, it can look better than when it is initially done and not all cuts can offer this. The cut itself is going to look good for a while even after it has grown out and will require very little maintenance. In fact, you are able to go a long while without coming in for a cut. The color will be the big determining factor in how much maintenance is required. The vibrancy of the color will fade and that is when you will need to come back into the salon for touch ups.


#27 Mixie Shag with Wispy Bangs and That Lived-In Color
The gradual dark to light transition at the roots creates built-in depth for fine to medium dense hair, which is really lovely. The wispy bangs are the right weight for this cut; they frame the face but aren’t too overwhelming. Those layered texts create effortless and natural volume, without looking too put-together or like I spent 20 minutes styling my hair. If you prefer polished sleek styles, this cut isn’t for you. If you want something a little more interesting and effortless, this is it. A dry texture spray will be all you need to set those layers.


#28 Curly Mixie Shag with Layers That Bounce
The curl pattern is stunning and the layers are cut to allow each curl to move freely instead of forcing them all into one formation. Having the right layers is very important as the wrong ones can create strange puffs or cause the curls to lose volume. This cut gets it right. The length is just above the shoulders which provides enough weight to maintain definition in the curls while preventing them from becoming overly flat. This is especially helpful for fine hair as the curls give a lot of extra volume. To keep the curl pattern looking its best I recommend a curl defining cream to reduce frizz. Overall, this cut is incredibly low maintenance and will continue to look great for a long time without needing a trim.


#29 Curly Mixie Shag That Plays Nice with Natural Texture
Your wavy hair means you could enjoy this style because you won’t have to struggle with your hair. The waves can come through as you won’t have to fight them any longer. The cut will have a flattering length as well because the hair should naturally rest around the jaw. The cut will also give the hair some nice movement. It’s only going to need a frizz control product for those humid months. It’s a high point of the cut though because it will look great as it relies on your natural waves.


#30 Wispy Mixie Shag with Lavender That’s Not Trying Too Hard
Honestly, I think this shade of lavender is soft enough to be seen as unique rather than gaudy, which is key to making a fashion colour work for everyday wear. With fine hair, the expert layering provides an effortless fullness and the length allows you the versatility to wear it behind your ears or swept forward depending on the look you’re going for. The wispy bangs keep it soft and youthful. Just be aware that the lavender will require the most upkeep since pastels fade quicker than virtually any other colour, so keep that in mind when you’re committing.


#31 Mixie Shag with Soft Layers and an Easy Morning
Here is another example of cut layering doing all the work. The soft layers create movement and volume that feels effortlessly on fine to medium hair. The length just above the shoulders is universally flattering so it works with most faces. The layers are subtle as they frame the face, and I appreciate the choice, it’s not overboard, it’s just right. Keeping the shape defined is the responsibility of regular trims, as the layers are what provide the structure to the cut, other than that, the maintenance effort is low. It is the cut’s simplicity that makes it one of the more clever options.


#32 Short Mixie Shag with Soft Side Layers and So Much Dimension
The soft outside layers create a kind of dimension fine hair usually lacks- and this is exactly what makes this cut so great. The short length gives an illusion of fullness because weight is not cutting the layers how to fall. The tussled finish gives a youthful touch. This is the kind of cut that looks great fresh out the salon and still looks good three days after, dry and untouched. That’s usually the measure I use to know how good a cut is. The cut is dry and flat? Mornings just run some product through it and you’re done. It won’t even take more than thirty seconds.


#33 Short Mixie Shag That Loves Your Natural Curl
Short, natural wavy or curly hair is so gorgeous! I get so excited when someone with those hair types wants to go shorter, and the result is always beautiful. Shorter layers create so much more volume and movement that you just can’t achieve with straight hair. With straightened hair, it just looks so much less fun. The soft layers around the face create such a nice design, especially for oval and round faces. I love how effortless styled hair looks, and this is the perfect example. It’s just damp hair with some mousse to create that look!


#34 Choppy Mixie Shag with Soft Curls and Real Character
With the combination of soft curls and choppy textures this style, I see it as a cut with lots of character. The curls keep it interesting and give it lots of movement. It is one of those styles that is guaranteed to feel fresh from every angle so it won’t feel boring, especially with shoulder length curls. The ideal length is just above the shoulders. This is because it gives the curls room to bounce instead of springing up to a length that is too short. This shape is ideal for fine to medium hair types, as the choppiness offers built-in volume. All that is needed to style is a little mousse or texturizing spray on damp hair. Because choppy layers grow out and lose definition, regular trims are important.


#35 Short Mixie Shag with Pastel Highlights and a Playful Streak
The highlights brighten up the entire cut, and make it feel a bit more fun which is quite underrated. They also offer some visual interest without having to make a full color commitment which is very clever. The waves layered on fine hair are going to enhance what is already there and create really good movement. It’s short enough to be low-maintenance, but long enough that you feel like you have some versatility with how you style it. The underneath cut is nice enough that it will still look good as the colour fades because the pastels will need to be refreshed pretty often. This framing is especially nice for oval and heart-shaped faces.


#36 Copper Mixie Shag with Bangs That Are Genuinely Fun
I might be a bit biased here, but I really enjoy the playful bangs with the mixie shag, and this version in copper just backs up my claims. The bangs offset the boxy face effect, and the mid length layered shag gives an airy softness which is great for fine and medium hair types. The color also adds warmth and energy which I think makes people smile. Shifting colors always gets people to smile at themselves and others. The biggest downside is that the copper will require regular maintenance with color shifting, but in general the haircut is pretty low maintenance.


#37 Mixie Shag with Soft Volume That Does the Heavy Lifting
All of the volume in this cut comes from the layers, and on fine to medium hair that’s ideal because you don’t have to depend on products or tools to get that volume. The soft, voluminous layers that frame your face create a nice movement that softens any angularity in your face. This length is also versatile enough to wear it a few different ways depending on your day, and the shape is forgiving enough that it still looks intentional when it’s not freshly styled. If you have finer hair, you may want to use a root volumizing spray on those days, but other than that, this cut really does earn its keep.


#38 Curly Mixie Shag That Makes Curls the Star
Want a fun new hairstyle that showcases your natural curls? Why not try a curly mixie shag style cut? With this hairstyle, your curls will bounce out with beautiful new dimensions and added volume. This hairstyle will give you curling volume that is typically lost with flat ironing. When going for a curly mixie shag style cut, it is best to go for medium length as it will give you a length that is just right so your curls don’t get weighed down but they still maintain definition. A good curl cream will help you keep the bounce and will minimize frizz. You will be one flawless curly mixie shag style cut away from perfect hair.


#39 Choppy Mixie Shag with Highlights That Feel Warm
The highlights add a bit of warmth and depth to the hair and help the layered structure stand out. The choppy layers in fine to medium density hair create a natural volume, and the overall look is effortlessly cool. The good news is that an awesome look does not take much maintenance, as long as the cut is right. However, this style is going to take some effort in the morning to really get that ‘look’. This is a big trade-off, but it’s a small one in the grand scheme of things. The look may not be ideal for very curly hair as choppy layers can create volume in strange places within tight curls, but this would work well for straight and wavy hair.


#40 Copper Mixie Shag with Layers That Catch Light
The use of bold copper colors and layered technique works really well because depending how the layers move, the colors also shift and provide an illusion of depth and brightness which single process colors do not offer. For finer type hair, this technique lightens and adds an airy feel that avoids the hair looking flat or weighed down. The framing effect is especially nice for round and oval shapes because everything is lifted and opened. The style will require some attention in the mornings, but we’re talking quick tussle and maybe some styling products. It’s really not much of a production. The real commitment is maintaining the copper, but if you love the color, it’s one of the most rewarding shades to maintain.


#41 Copper Mixie Shag with Modern Layers and Wispy Bangs
I enjoy how the new layers offer a freshness that suggests the cut is working for you. The bangs add a youthful touch, and they also need virtually no effort as they just fall into place. The copper shade is beautiful and really makes a statement with mid length hair, and at this density the hair looks full, healthy and alive. I love how flattering the entire shape is. It offers a modern feel without being overly trendy. The trims will keep your layers defined and the upkeep for the cut will be a stroll in the park!


#42 Short Mixie Shag with Playful Layers and Crown Volume
What I particularly enjoy about this style is the added crown texture, as fine hair typically needs assistance in that area, and that is where this cut most excels. The bangs are effortlessly layered and require little to no effort with respect to styling, while the shoulder drying length means that quick drying is guaranteed and also consistent styling to achieve the look is absent. Layers on slightly wavy fine hair result in enough motion and volume to create the perception that the hair mass is greater than it actually is, and for me, this is the sign of a brilliant haircut. If you want to preserve the shape and layering you will have to get fairly regular trims to stop them from merging, but it’s one of the few short styles that I have found grows out with grace.


#43 Mixie Shag with Vibrant Copper Highlights That Frame Everything
The face framing copper highlights are what defines the color. On warm undertones, they give the appearance of lovely natural variation to the hair. Paired with mid-length layers, it creates volume and movement, and is great for low maintenance. It gives the illusion of density that fine to medium hair lacks. The color will need to be touched up for consistency, but the cut is casual enough to keep it looking great from day to night.


#44 Mixie Shag with Face-Framing Bangs and Just the Right Layers
Face framing bangs are great for softening the overall look, and the playful layers underneath keep it from being too safe and boring. For fine to medium hair, chin length is ideal as it is long enough for the layers to have space to move and short enough to keep volume closer to the face. The subtle highlights add dimension, keeping it youthful and modern without being a major color commitment. This is one of those cuts that would suit almost everyone, which is hard to say about most styles, but the structure is just really well balanced.


#45 Silver Mixie Shag with Soft Volume and Natural Wave
My silver clients often hear me say that cut is more important than color, and this is a perfect example why. Her layers are soft and bouncy, creating incredible volume on medium to fine hair. The waves are natural and elevate this look without needing much styling. This cut is just above the shoulders, which is the perfect length to frame the face without getting hair caught in it. The silver color is polished and not accidental. Honestly, it’s easy to get this look with a shorter cut and little effort. If you want to really define the waves and texture, all you need is a good product.


#46 Short Mixie Shag with Ash Blonde Highlights That Brighten
Your face will appear brighter with light ash blonde highlights without having to do an all-over color. This is a more natural look and easier to upkeep. The highlights and cut layers create an effect, which neither could do alone. The highlights give the layers a boost and the layers allow the highlights to flow. The short layered cut can be described as fresh and modern. The length and texture of the layers will give your hair a fine to medium feel. The short the more modern and finer it will feel. Since ash tones fade, highlights will require more frequent maintenance. Aside from that, the maintenance cut isn’t high effort.


#47 Layered Mixie Shag with Volume That Builds Itself
This haircut looks full and alive, yet still styled. The layers give movement and this looks best with little to no product and no heat. The length is versatile enough to give multiple looks. Lastly, this cut really frames your face nicely and isn’t too much. A light styling cream is all you’ll need to keep these layers looking great.


#48 Silver Mixie Shag That Feels Like It’s Barely Trying
The haircut flatters while looking low effort. The medium length with texturized layers gives soft hair more volume and can make people think you have great hair. The waves are fun and the silvery color is trendy and refined. The shape will be maintained with regular trims, but with this cut you mostly just have to exist and look great. The framing is especially beautiful for oval and heart shaped faces.


#49 Caramel-Highlighted Mixie Shag with Movement and Warmth
Caramel with brown offers rich color contrast, making it a great addition to a simplistic cut. The layers provide movement without being too overwhelming. The cut offers a natural fullness to hair of fine to medium thickness. It’s best suited for oval and heart-shaped faces. The warm tones complement the skin well, but the cut’s color and layered look will require frequent upkeep. You’ll get a put-together look with a manageable maintenance.


#50 Textured Mixie Shag with Natural Wave and Easy Volume
With this hairstyle, most of the volume comes from the hair’s natural wave. However, the mid-length layers also help add volume because they work with the wave of the hair and not against it. This style creates volume that is difficult to achieve with hair products. Especially with fine hair, the additional texture from the layers creates movement and dimension without requiring extensions or additional products. The face-framing layers are soft and complimentary, and the whole hairstyle can be achieved with just finger combing and likely that’s how it was done. This is among the most low-maintenance hairstyles available in contemporary looks. All that is required is the slightest bit of styling product on days when the hair looks a bit flat.
