27. Haircut with Balayage. Balayage highlights look exceptionally attractive on women with medium hair. They may get swallowed up on long hair or slip one’s attention on short hair but never so for a shoulder-length haircut. Guess it’s probably due to the color sitting close to your face that gets the most attention.

Sometimes it can be hard to see what potential your medium hair has if you’re already bored with it. Looking through magazines can be helpful, but sometimes they don’t have advice for your particular hair type. Luckily, there is quite a lot you can do to refresh your hair, whether it’s waves and highlights, a sleek pin-straight shoulder-length hairstyle, or a shaggy layered cut – there is definitely something for you below.

Before you head to the salon for a makeover, look through these 50 beautiful medium-length haircuts for ideas.

1. Straight Layered Hair. Sophisticated and chic, this haircut is a sure stunner. Straight cuts may be hard to maintain, but the flare and confidence they deliver are more than worth it!

2. Sliced Bangs and Layers. Haircuts for straight thick hair need layers for texture and lightness. With this cut, you can enjoy the ease and volume of multiple sliced layers throughout the length of your hair.

3. Brown Blonde Shag. Want a cute do you can easily dress up or down? Go for a wavy lob.

4. Wavy Hairstyle with Textured Ends. Want to show off the beauty of your free-flowing locks? Choose a haircut like this. It doesn’t require much time to style – just learn how to blow-dry your medium locks to create those pretty face-framing waves.

5. Hairstyle with Swoopy Layers. Such layers make your locks seem very soft, light, and shiny – and that’s exactly what you need for a date or a night out. Of course, hair health is crucial for this kind of effect.

6. Layered Shag with Bangs. It’s amazing how much you can transform your look by trying a new trendy hairstyle. While some women go for chic and sleek hairdos, others prefer messy, edgy, and bold hairstyles with modern long bangs that perfectly suit their badass character.

7. Soft Brown Style with Highlights. With a beachy style like this choppy bob you can enjoy summer vibes all year long!

8. Hairstyle for Blonde Hair. A hairstyle that grazes the shoulders can easily maintain a gorgeous wavy length and an effortless overall look.

9. Layers and See-Through Bangs. Here we see the perfect length for creating voluminous downdos. The soft layers and see-through bangs amplify the effect by visually adding texture and depth to the hair.

10. Shadow Roots and Swoopy Layers. This hairstyle is a staple for women who wish to make their hair seem longer. The layers that appear wind-swept and shadow roots do the trick!

11. Luxuriant Long Highlighted Bob. Shoulder-grazing lobs are among our fave haircuts because they are quite diverse, low-maintenance, and always super-stylish. Especially if paired with trendy highlights (the sand beige ones in this case).
