11. Neck-Length Shag. If your hair is on the thinner side, plump it up easily with lots of layers. The cute shaggy waves and a long straight eyebrow-grazing fringe create a beautiful contrast that attracts attention.

12. Clavicle-Length Shaglet. Here is how you can construct a retro shag with a modern feel — take the full crown and face-framing bits from the 60s, add the feathery finish and softness of the 70s, and complete the look with trendy effortless bends.

13. Thick Curtain Fringe. Such haircuts are a sure bet when you need to balance the shape of your face. Another plus, they make a great mask for hiding a big forehead. Did we mention that a layered fringe like this makes your hair appear fuller? Now you know.

14. Lob with Asymmetrical Bangs. This is a nice example of a haircut for fine straight hair which is made more dimensional with a caramel balayage, and it seems fuller in the front thanks to the deep fringe.

15. Wispy Midi Cut. Whether you pick a curtain or a wispy fringe, both look beautiful with a midi wavy hairstyle. The wispy razored layers are extremely flattering for the rounder face shape.

16. Highlighted Shag. When you opt for the medium length, your look becomes as versatile as the one pictured. Go from a mostly straight style with a side swoop to shaggy layers and a cropped jagged fringe!

17. Waves with Face-Framing. Loose beachy waves get extra style points when paired with a long layered face frame. Great for someone who wants a change but prefers not to go to extreme lengths.

18. Curls with Bangs. Midi cuts with different types of bangs are a find for older ladies. A thin choppy fringe freshens up your look, while messy layers create the much-needed volume.

19. Tousled Layers. This mane of dirty blonde hair feels far more lightweight with some bulk removed through layering yet remains perfectly voluminous, not to mention its crisp texture.

20. Arched Fringe. This shoulder-grazing hair promotes layered ends to style the strands effortlessly. It’s also excellent for fine hair as the style can give it more volume.

21. Ginger Midi Hair. Looking for something really low-commitment? Such long face-framing layers will melt seamlessly into the side pieces as your hair grows out, still providing you with extra volume around the face.

22. Piece-y Fringe. Considering getting a midi cut with some type of fringe? We would say just do it. The see-through piece-y fringe with face-cupping hair are sexy and cute.

23. Wavy Choppy Lob. Masterfully customized midi cuts with the right type of face-framing can turn flat hair into a gorgeous look, such as this long blonde bob jazzed up with beachy waves and filled with texture.

24. Thin Money Pieces. This is one of the haircuts that can beautifully frame any face shape and match whatever clothes you have in your wardrobe. Put some highlights to add dimension to your hair.

25. Light Brown Locks. Such hairstyles come out amazing on light brown hair. Spice up your brown waves with blonde highlights and you have a hairstyle that looks as fascinating as hers.

26. Messy Waves. Such hairstyles have the power to balance facial features, and the deep brow-hitting fringe here shifts attention from the round cheeks to the eyes and adds height for further elongation.

27. Side-Parted Midi Cut. Side fringes are particularly good for round and square faces. Sweeping your front strands to one side helps to make the face look slimmer. Such face-framing is also super-fanciful.

28. Shag for Thin Hair. This platinum blonde style is carefully sliced out to give some texture to the thin hair without making it look scarce, and the full layered bangs help a lot to preserve the body.

29. Choppy See-Through Bangs. If you are not sure whether you can pull off the side fringe with your hair length, start with an airy one-length see-through fringe that can be easily pushed to either side.

30. Thick Bottleneck Fringe. Thick bottleneck face-frame perfectly complements mid-length locks. You can rock your fringe without parting or give it a little part in the middle for a posh effect.

31. Shaggy Massive Bangs. What can make your fresh shag stand out better than a statement fringe carved deep, long, and extremely full? Maybe, just splashes of amber all around!

32. Razored Lob. A long bob cut is always a good choice if you prefer the shoulder length. The front strands are pin-straight and the length of the hair is filled with highlighted soft waves.

33. Straight Sleek Haircut. For a look that is professional, sophisticated, and works well for both office and party, try this sleek style that perfectly frames the face.

34. Dip-Dye Layers. We can’t but adore this bottleneck fringe which is cut shorter in the center to wear it straight for a change and brightened by a touch of honey at the ends to fit into the overall color scheme.

35. Straight Messy Look. You may fail to recognize the good old lob in this free-spirited, voluminous, and beautifully textured style adorned with face-framing layers of varying lengths.

36. Fine Hair Layers. For thin or fine hair, add lots of layers that you can style to your heart’s content to boost volume.

37. Shag with Lowlights. For a head-turning hairstyle, add heavy red highlights to your brunette hair. One of the most convenient ways to wear midi haircuts with a fringe is with a choppy texture.

38. Medium Choppy Bangs. Delving into the world of haircuts with bangs for the first time? We recommend starting with a straight face-frame. Such fringes are easy to pull off on most hair lengths. Ask your stylist to cut the bangs choppy for a truly cute look.

39. Long Curtain Bangs. For medium skin tones and a long face shape, try this inverted dirty blonde lob with a soft curtain fringe.

40. Angled Bob. It’s an oldie, but a goodie. A simple cut with a soft, angled side fringe goes well with anything and looks good on almost anyone.

41. Butterfly Layers. Butterfly layers are all the rage nowadays, and they work great with curtain fringes to maximize volume around the face, but you’d better keep the bottom of the hair blunt if you want the ends to appear fuller.

42. Shaggy Lengthy Bob. Trying to distract attention from a distinctly long face or a large forehead? Get a shoulder-grazing haircut and add in long face-framing strands parted to the side.

43. Shag with Wispy Bangs. This cute style combines a straight fringe with multiple bends released by feathering, which accentuates the eyes and brings in some piquant contrast without overwhelming the face.

44. Waves with a Blunt Fringe. Here is yet another proof that such hairstyles can have both softness and a rock-star edge since this shrunken blunt fringe makes the look hard to miss.

45. Curtain Feathered Layers. We do think these chic curtain fringes and bouncy layers on the bottom would look fabulous in any color, but the combo with the radiant red is a sensation.

46. Shoulder-Grazing Mullet. The overgrown feel and the sharpness of this straight fringe fit incredibly well into the heavily textured and intentionally disheveled version of the modern mullet.

47. Loose Waves with Curtain Fringes. These low-key curtain fringes are neither super long nor extremely feathered, but they still manage to give a flattering face frame while being easy to style.

48. Wet-Looking Beach Waves. Try this trendy wet look. With fine soft waves in your shoulder-grazing locks, you’ll feel like you’ve just stepped off the beach.

49. Cropped Fringes. We love the shaggy cropped texture of this fun midi hairstyle. It’ll take only minutes to style in the morning!

50. Feathery Side Fringe. If you’re not about committing to styling a regular fringe every day, long off-centered face-framing strands will allow you to have a fun hairstyle without any fuss.
