    Medium hairstyles are a popular choice in 2019 because of the length’s versatility. Medium-length hair ranges from the mid-neck line to just past the shoulders. This provides plenty of styling options like leaving your hair down with layers, waves, braids, ponytails or curls. For that formal occasion, you can still put it into a beautiful updo. Below, you’ll find photos of the best looks for shoulder length hair as inspiration for your next ‘do.

    The Versatility of Medium Length Hair

    Medium length hair is all about versatility and an abundance of styling choices for women of all hair types including thin and thick hair and women of all ages. Mid-length hair is also more flattering because it is not too short or too long and women with varying facial features will find many cute style options at this length. This can include the many bobs, the longer lob ones, shags, messy layers, straight tresses, and curls. With this hair length the styling options are also available and easier to maintain than on longer hair. Adorable updos, braided ponytails, and coloring like ombre fit perfectly with mid-length hair. Some techniques that might not work on shorter cuts like pixies or longer hair, are just right for shoulder length haircuts.
