Not overly short and not excessively long, shoulder-length haircuts sit at just the right spot! It’s the most sought-after length that I and many other hairstylists choose for our clients.

There are virtually endless ways to cut and style shoulder-length hair. Additionally, at this length, you can easily tie it back into a ponytail for warmer days and elegantly style it for more formal events. Finally, there’s no need to fret about your face shape or hair type. I’ll share some of the finest cuts and dos suitable for each.

Here are images of some of the trendiest shoulder-length haircuts for you to contemplate this Summer!

Shag-Inspired Shoulder-Length Haircut

#1 Textured Shoulder-Length Shag Cut

I would describe the look as a layered, shoulder-length, shag-inspired cut. The range of styling options is limitless. You can transition from rocker to bohemian waves, from sleek to textured, or up in different styles. My favorite aspect of this haircut is its remarkable versatility, allowing it to be styled with your hair’s natural texture.

#2: Red Curls in Their Natural State

I adore curly hair and how she confidently embraces it. Her locks appear entirely straight due to styling. Be mindful of maintaining a regular schedule when visiting the salon. Ensure to use cooler water while washing at home. Avoid daily washing and opt for a color-safe shampoo and conditioner. I prefer the Angel Wash and Rinse by Kevin Murphy, Smooth Again to detangle her hair, Cocktail Deva Curl Styling Cream and Gel, followed by diffusing. For curly hair, any face shape complements beautifully.

#3: Sandy Ombre with a Messy Finish

This hairstyle is effortlessly chic and perfect for shoulder-length hair. It’s ideal if you’re seeking a low-maintenance hair care routine. A messy cut enhances a bold ombre beautifully. Natural roots provide the texture and volume necessary for a stunning appearance.

#4: Effortless Wrapped Updo

This hairstyle is effortlessly stylish with a touch of textured grace. Although I tend to prefer sleek looks, I have come to appreciate the beauty of movement. It lends a soft, feminine charm to the wearer from every angle.

A Stunning Rose Gold Shade Shoulder-Length

#5: A Stunning Rose Gold Shade

This is a long bob, also known as a lob. It’s a one-length cut with interior layering to create texture and remove the weight so it doesn’t turn into a triangle on your head. My favorite thing is the rose hue of the hair! I used the only rose-toned vegan shampoo there is on the market. It’s called Surface Rose Shampoo and Conditioner. After 1-3 washes, it washes right out, and you will have blonde hair again. This is perfect if you are scared to color your hair but want something fun and temporary.

Blunt Shoulder-Length Cut with Dark Roots and Blonde Highlights for women

#6: Blunt Cut with Dark Roots

A blunt haircut could serve as an excellent choice for a versatile and easy-to-manage style. This look features a sleek, straight finish with no layers or angles. This ensures simplicity in styling and upkeep, while the blonde highlights provide dimension and depth. This cut is flattering for all face shapes and hair types. You might consider incorporating subtle waves or curls using a large barrel curling iron to introduce a touch of volume and dimension.

#7: Defined Medium Blonde Ringlets

Ask about a defined medium blonde ringlet style. My advice for a stunning ringlet would be to focus on definition and volume. Find a curl specialist if you want to be educated on your curls. There are many curl styling products and techniques to fit your style.

Shoulder-Length Shag with Sheer Bangs
Instagram @skipdoeshair

#8: Shoulder-Length Shag with Sheer Bangs

A shoulder-length shag with sheer bangs is the perfect blend of hairstyles. If you love shag cuts, you’re probably interested in bangs. Trying a sheer fringe will help transition your style.

#9: Layered Sunset Blonde Hairstyle

This easy-to-manage haircut is perfect for a variety of events. It brings style and energy to your daytime or evening look. Suitable for individuals of all ages, this look is timeless and enduring. The model’s hair falls just below her shoulders when straightened, and when styled with curls as shown in the image, it rests right on her shoulders. For more natural-looking curls, remember to vary the curl direction. Begin by curling one section away from your face, then alternate and curl the next section towards your face.

Stylish Waves With Glasses at Shoulder-Length

#10: Elegant Waves Enhanced by Glasses

This client has naturally thick, coarse, and curly hair. Compared to her usual look, this style is exceptionally smooth and sleek. I appreciate the loose and effortless vibe of the waves and the texture and volume contributed to the style from her hair’s natural texture.

#11: Sleek Ash Blonde Elegance

This shade of blonde is striking. The uniformity of the color is remarkable. I’m particularly drawn to ash blondes. What stands out most about this style is its blonde essence! Who can resist a stunning blonde? It creates the appearance of a full blonde look without requiring all-over lightening.

Textured Lob for Round Faces
Instagram @marcosyan_boaz

#12: Textured Lob for Round Faces

Undoubtedly, one of the most flattering styles for round faces is a shoulder-length haircut. Such medium haircuts for women over 50 feature middle-parting and soft beach waves to help slim and elongate the face.

#13: Caramel Layered Styles

Explore this enchanting cut featuring layers and caramel highlights. This shoulder-length hairstyle showcases beige/brown long layers complemented by buttery blonde balayage. I adore how the style manages to look effortlessly chic yet refined. I suggest using a color-safe shampoo and conditioner (Pureology), a primer (Bumble and Bumble), a blow dry cream (Joico) along with a roller brush (Olivia Garden), and a quality blow dryer. This hairstyle suits thicker hair and almost any face shape. It’s perfect for a woman who appreciates a polished appearance without feeling overly done.

Shoulder-Length Middle Part Lob Haircut

#14 Shoulder-Length LOB with Middle Part

This hairstyle is modern and adaptable. It’s perfect for any woman looking to refresh her appearance while steering clear of a bob. With the midi trend gaining popularity, the LOB is essential, as it suits both straight strands or beachy waves for that effortless “I just woke up like this” vibe.

#15: Effortless Box Braids

These braids can be styled in numerous ways, require minimal upkeep, and complement any hair type and texture. Keep it shoulder-length or shorter if you want to feel light and carefree. This is a bold and timeless hairstyle. These shorter box braids give me a 90s lob feel. What I appreciate about this hairstyle are the length and the embellishments. The jewels at the end make this hairstyle pop. If your hair is a little too long, fold your hair in half so that when you cut the ends, you don’t accidentally snip your hair! Also, moisturize your scalp once a week to prevent irritation and dryness.

#16: Effortless Shoulder-Length Styles for Summer

This is easy, on-the-go hair. My favorite aspect of this style is its versatility. Whether she opts for a polished look or embraces a casual, messy vibe, it always appears fantastic.

Textured bangs and layers shoulder-length
Instagram @sophiecolorco

#17: Textured Bangs and Layers

This look is perfect if you enjoy a slightly tousled/messy aesthetic. If you’re not in search of a perfectly defined bob but a style that flows naturally, this shag is ideal for you. You can let it air dry to embrace your natural texture or add a couple of wanded pieces for flair. I wouldn’t suggest this cut for low-density hair or tight or coiled curls. It’s fantastic for medium texture, medium to heavy density, straight to wavy, or soft curls.

Graceful silver long layers
Instagram @brigi_hairs

#18: Graceful Silver Long Layers

Consider a graceful, silver, medium-layered cut. Ask your stylist for long layers and less body if you desire movement. This typically is created with layers no shorter than a few inches from the perimeter. Adding texture to the layers will also give lightness to the ends.

Shoulder-Length Chic Deep Side Part

#19: Chic Deep Side Part

Bedhead has never been this stylish! Combine those golden bronze hair color tousled layers with a relaxed, deep side part for a trendy shoulder-length hairstyle.

#21: Soft Blonde Extremely Curly Hair

Girls with beautiful curly tresses should consider this simple yet vibrant style. If you’re searching for a way to reduce the fullness that long, lively curls can create, choose this haircut that lets you highlight your stunning natural curls.

#22: Sleekly Angled Bob

A sharply angled blunt bob is a stylish option for the traditional bob. All hair types are embraced. For volume, maintain a blunt edge. To reduce weight, utilize thick texture and razor cutting for a softer look. Waves created with a curling wand always complement a bob, as well as naturally wavy and curly hair.

#23: Textured Waves

This styled choppy bob look is incredibly versatile and easy to maintain.  It’s a truly playful, charming style that suits individuals of any age. A hair painting technique employed for lightening results in a super low-maintenance color that complements your skin tone, adding vibrancy and depth, all while your hair grows out beautifully.

Rich Chocolate Brown Hair with Caramel Lowlights
Instagram @cabelodemadame

#24: Rich Chocolate Brown Hair with Caramel Lowlights

This is one of the most stunning hairstyles because it features multiple dimensions, and the caramel tones of the lowlights beautifully enhance her complexion. The subtle, deeper roots will allow the lowlights to blend seamlessly as they grow out for a more effortless appearance. Maintain the length around the collarbone, which will help prevent the “shoulder flip” when your hair grazes the shoulders.

#25: Radiant Platinum Blonde Hue

I want to categorize this as a SoCal inspired/beachy chic look. After brightening her up, we gave her a cut that could be easy for everyday wear or a fun weekend glam. There’s nothing better than this beach wave! When I finish her hair, fireworks go off, and I fall in love.

#26: Chic Rich Angled LOB

This is chic and stylish. You get the best of both worlds. You have a bob look, but it’s long enough to still play with. Use a good product and good tools. My go-to products are Loma Fortify Repair Oil (used on both wet and dry) and Small Talk from Bed Head for styling and volume. Make sure you use tools up to 450 degrees, as it makes a big difference, but also use the oil before curling or straightening your hair.

Vibrant Natural Curly Shoulder-Length Hair
Instagram @belximenes

#27: Vibrant Natural Curly Hair

The aim of this style was to rejuvenate her curls for a bouncy and healthy appearance. If you desire your curls to maintain their shape and volume throughout the day, consider this shoulder-length hairstyle. Request your stylist for face-framing layers to enhance your features. Mid-length layers added throughout will seamlessly blend into your face-framing layers in the front, giving your hair a lively, weightless form when dried with a diffuser.

#28: Bold Dip Dye Blue Ombre

This is a striking look. I love the color melting from matte dark brown to vivid turquoise. Every girl or woman can wear this look if she’s courageous enough. But I think it will look best for alternative girls wanting alternative hairstyles.

Charming Side-Swept Bangs Shoulder Length Hairstyle

#29: Charming Side-Swept Bangs

The delicate hue enhances her blunt bob with lovely side-swept bangs. This hairstyle is particularly flattering on heart-shaped or oval faces.

Textured choppy bob haircut shoulder-length
Instagram @blendedbygabby

#30: Textured Choppy Bob Haircut

This is my favorite kind of bob – layered and choppy. I adjust the length and layers depending on my client’s face shape. This look is so low-maintenance. You only need to add a texture product like the Matrix StyleLink Airy Builder. It’s a mousse that adds texture and some grit to it. It builds up fine hair and is strong enough to control thick hair without creating too much buildup. If you have fine, straight hair, add the mousse, diffuse, and wrap a few face-framing pieces around your wand, and you’re off. If you already have texture, apply Airy Builder, diffuse, and go, as this dries so amazingly.

This client has fine hair, and by incorporating longer layers, we revitalized the cut and introduced some movement to her typically flat hair. I adore how such a straightforward change can enhance one’s appearance!

#32: Chic Brown Hues

A timeless yet fashionable approach to incorporating your dark roots is to enhance your hair with cool brunette highlights that always appear stunning regardless of your styling choice.

#33: Beautiful Auburn Hue

This is a copper-gold color melt! I love this option over a worn-out classic ombre. Moving away from the traditional dark to blonde, we’ve enlivened it and given it new life. The best part is that we didn’t have to pre-lighten, so the hair is in excellent condition, which results in stunning shine! This captivating color transition is hard to look away from! With a take-home Novafusion copper shampoo, this color can be rich and easy to maintain at home. The subtle color blend will look remarkable if styled curly, straight, or left natural.

Choppy lobs are definitely the universal hairstyle I believe anyone can rock. Invest in a high-quality curling iron. I use hot tools like a barrel curling iron and a curling technique, but then I roll all my curls the same way. Flip your hair over, and add some Bedroom Hair to it.

Use a spray wax like Flash Form by Oribe to style your medium-length brunette shag.

This is a versatile, layered color variation style. The great thing about this look is that a version of it is suitable for everyone as you can adapt the shape around the front to suit and flatter most face shapes. It’s great for ladies with a busy lifestyle, as you can scrunch a bit of sea salt spray in, and you’re good to go.

#57: Waves That Frame the Face for Fine Hair

This is a tousled, beachy textured style. The grown-out regrowth and the brightness around the face create a naturally sun-kissed appearance. I love that it gives off a relaxed, intentional messiness. It feels as if she just rolled out of bed, curled a few pieces, and finished with a texture spray. I adore the concept of that “just rolled out of bed” vibe. The color ties everything together to enhance the curl. Some is her natural texture, which also looks stunning when straight!

#58: Medium-Length Hair Featuring Bangs

This hairstyle offers a timeless medium-length cut with bangs. It’s a contemporary spin on a classic fringe. My favorite aspect of it is the texture and lively vibe the overall style exudes.

I also enjoy adding a touch of Salty Dog from Evo after drying to create a subtly textured edge.

This half-up, half-down style is the perfect blend of sophistication and playful charm. My favorite aspect of this look is its effortless nature, but incorporating the pearls adds just the right touch of flair. I suggest this look for women with layered hair, as it would be challenging to achieve with a single length. I used KMS Dry Wax to provide hold and a hint of texture.

It’s really up to the client as to how they want to style it because you can do as little or as much as you want with this length!

Edgy, yet feminine, because of the rose gold hair color. My favorite aspect was styling the hair and witnessing the outcome. If you’re not keen on a high-maintenance look, prefer to save on products, or are not inclined to visit the salon every 3 months, I wouldn’t suggest this cut and color.

#71: Chic Middle-Parted Bangs

This hairstyle is among the most popular cuts for style enthusiasts. Its appeal lies in being both timeless and trendy. The final look can vary based on your preference – whether sleek or wavy! Its adaptability is truly what makes it appealing! It suits nearly everyone.

This hairstyle can be worn for any hair type. I recommend you pre-curl all your hair before styling it.

Girls with curly hair need to consider their curl pattern as this could play into how short or long to cut the hair.

I admire cuts that offer versatility, and this shoulder-length lob truly excels in that regard. It’s simple to style like a bob while still being long enough for a ponytail when needed. You could also experiment with a playful half-up style for added interest!

#96: Bohemian-Style Braid

The textured waves and crown braid are ideal. It’s a style that anyone can rock. My guest here had fine hair, and the textured waves gave her a fuller appearance. We applied some Powder Play Lite on her crown to provide a little extra lift and finished the look with AG Tousled Texture finishing spray to create a more effortless wave.

#97: Luminous Blonde for Sleek Hair

By maintaining a blunt edge, it enhances the appearance of volume. I enjoy adding a subtle downward angle towards the front to establish a focal point. This approach keeps the style appearing modern and stylish. The first decision to make is where you prefer it to fall: above the shoulders, at your chin, or mid-neck. This typically depends on your face shape and neck proportions. Frequently, women overlook that neck length can significantly influence the outcome when styling a bob. There are numerous adaptations of the bob haircut. Consult your stylist to determine which variation suits you best!

#98: Ideal for Fine Hair

You can tackle your fine or thin hair issues by experimenting with this stylish hairstyle. Dark roots and a blonde balayage will provide you with that fresh, charming look you’ve always desired.

#102: Elegant Champagne Blonde for Prom

Always consider your skin tone, natural hair color, eye color, and lifestyle. Your unique beauty always shines through. This champagne blonde shade enhances your look perfectly if you have a lighter skin tone. Always be true to yourself. Many women seek something far from their natural hues, which may require significant upkeep and investment.

#103: Adorable Middle-Parted Bangs

Consider a shaggy textured bob because this cut is incredibly versatile. It’s charming, straight pulled back with the layered curtain bangs, or wavy and tousled! Haircuts on shoulder-length hair only require a little work as it looks straight and wavy. But for a voluminous look, a root lifting spray helps give it an effortless finish. For your bangs, I suggest pulling the front forward and round brushing, then drying and then separating down the middle for a face-flattering style!

#104: Elegant Brunette Graduated Bob

This is a stylish, modern interpretation of the classic bob. I love the steep inversion, which distinguishes this haircut from the ordinary bob. The adaptability of this haircut allows you to wear it straight, with natural curls, or beach waves.

#105: Curled Hair with Strawberry Swirls

This is a layered cut with red and blonde dimensions featuring soft curls. My favorite part is the color and how it complements both her skin and her cut. These two shades of red and honey beige blonde blend beautifully, especially when styled in shoulder-length hairstyles for women. For this color combination, always consider your skin tone. If you have fair skin, adding a deep red will enhance the vibrancy of your complexion and illuminate your eyes.

#106: Shadow Root with Platinum Blonde

This hairstyle features a beautiful blonde color with shoulder-length locks and a balayage shadow root effect. What I love most about this style is that it allows those who aspire to be blonde (but struggle with a full blonde look) to achieve a stunning blonde transformation while keeping their natural base color! I recommend investing in Olaplex, a quality deep conditioner, and silver/purple shampoo. These products will help hydrate your hair and preserve the color’s vibrancy, preventing it from becoming brassy.

#107: Rich Mahogany

This is a dimensional ruby red hue. I appreciate how the red complements the green in her hazel eyes and how the bright pieces enhance the texture of her cut. Anyone considering a vivid red should first keep in mind that a more vibrant color necessitates additional maintenance. Reds are known for being high maintenance but can be easily managed with a color-depositing shampoo, such as Viral in Ruby or Overtone products.

#108: Stunning Textured Blonde

This hair color is incredibly appealing to the eye due to its warm and captivating vibe. Perfect for all skin tones and any hairstyle.

#109: Braided Look with Soft Waves

This is a braided shoulder-length hairstyle with soft waves. My favorite aspect of this look is the braid! Braids are incredibly trendy and enjoyable right now. They provide just the right touch of texture along with the soft waves and help unify the overall appearance.

#110: Elegant Maypole Braided Updo for Weddings

This is a refined take on a boho updo simply because it has the sleekness of the barrel roll, but the braids help make it look more laid-back. My favorite is the braids because you cannot beat a beautiful braid in any style. Plus, this particular braid is something new I created, which I have named the “Maypole” braid.

#111: Charming Ash Brown Waves

These delicate ash-blonde highlights bring dimension to her hair, while the polished waves highlight the texture. This lovely shoulder-length hairstyle is simple to achieve and ideal for a daily feminine appearance.

This hairstyle presents a contemporary perspective on the traditional bob. I adore how polished and streamlined this haircut appears. There’s nothing quite like a beautifully defined line. This style is most flattering on individuals with straight to wavy hair. I rely on Aveda Smooth Infusion to achieve a straight and frizz-resistant look.

#113: Stylish, Yet Bold

Look stylish and bold at the same time! I love pairing this haircut with the lavender color because it gives off this spunky, laid-back vibe. I recommend the Viral Extreme Silver shampoo to maintain your hair color. As for the shoulder-length loose curls, I recommend a hair wand as flat irons and curling irons can sometimes fade the hair color back to blonde.
