#7: Light Brown Straight Hairstyle
A straight hairstyle on light brown hair looks great with face-framing layers. Consider adding textured ends. If you have straight hair and want to wear your hair with a wave, make sure to use a mousse. Use Amika’s Plus Size Volume & Body Mousse in damp hair. Do this before you blow it out to help lock in the style. Wrap strands around a 1.5″ curling iron.

If your hair is thick and you need a lot of movement, an updated shag may be a great cut to consider.

This beautiful medium-long cut is a modern take on the 70s-style rocker shag, ideal for the girl who is always effortlessly cool. With a mix of sweetness and edge, the coolest part about this medium long hair is that it’s a statement for the girl who doesn’t want to just have pretty hair. Long or mid-length hair can sometimes get a little boring, so add curtain bangs and wispy layered ends to elevate your medium hair from the ordinary. You get everything that you would want from long hair – volume, softness, shine, but your longish mid-length hairstyles are just a little cooler than your every day long layers.
Search for a stylist who specializes in dry cutting or razor cutting to achieve the cool grittiness that hairstyles for medium long hair call for. This medium to long hairstyle will work best if you have some waves, as it is meant to be air-dried with a curl balm and spray wax to enhance your natural texture. You can still achieve medium hairstyles with longer layers if your hair is straight or curly, you’ll just need to spend some time with your hot tools.
#18: Amazing Shoulder-Length to Long Blunt Cut
This easy medium long cut is super low maintenance! Long-length inverted bobs grow out really well, and don’t need to be maintained every 6 weeks like a lot of other medium to long hair cuts! The layer allows for an undone, texturized feel. This is the ultimate #coolgirl haircut! Ask for a cut that’s blunt, slightly shorter at the back & with a soft, long layer. Spice it up with a rich brunette with undertones of mahogany & silver, to create a beautiful shine. Of course, Olaplex was also used!
Medium to long hairstyles like this are really adaptable, whether you style your hair every day or leave the natural movement.

When choosing medium long cuts, consider how you wear your hair on a regular basis and your natural texture. A solid form looks great on everybody, but the cut must be modified in length in order to flatter you individually. Besides getting medium-length haircuts frequently (4-6 weeks), this haircut is very low-maintenance which is great for those with a busy lifestyle.

Medium long haircuts are all about effortless, lived-in hair. This collarbone-length lob is texturized internally and layered in order to increase volume and create movement. Consider your own hair texture, density, condition, and natural color.
Women with very fine hair should consider a more blunt haircut. However, this longer side of mid-length cuts works for most women. The best thing about this color and cut is that it is very low-maintenance. You should only need to schedule a salon visit a maximum of three times a year as it will grow out beautifully.
#21: Lovely Long Layers on Medium-Length Hair
This is an “entry-level medium-long shag” for women wanting to try medium-length hairstyles. The layers frame the face and bring attention to the soft features. The cut itself is a bit bombshell and a bit edgy, and cutting with a razor gives it a kind of undone movement.
Gorgeous medium to long haircuts like this can be worn by any woman. As long as the layering is shaped according to their facial structure. Razor cutting has a way of coaxing out your natural wave pattern and adds so much movement to the fine, curly, wavy, or straight hair. It air dries so beautifully. The only women who should proceed with caution are those prone to breakage and overprocessed ends.
#22: Trendsetting Medium to Long Ombre Hair
Medium to long ombre hair is perfect for low-maintenance ladies. Ombre hair is the perfect choice for you if you do not frequently go for maintenance appointments.

This haircut is ideal for women with thick hair because the textured layers remove weight resulting in lots of movement without losing length.
Medium long hairstyles vary from collarbone to chest-length, letting you have the best of both worlds – enough length to create all types of hairstyling techniques you’d want, but not too much weight for easier management and care.
Medium length haircuts take on a lot of forms that you can customize according to your face shape. Round and heart-shaped faces appear nicest with long angled cuts, while square shapes look gorgeous with soft and face-hugging layers.
