Medium Hairstyles

A triangular shaped face is more so like a heart shaped face and has a wider forehead which keeps narrowing as it moves towards the chin, which is generally pointed.

1) Bangs with a zigzag parting look good on a triangular face as the sides fall softly while the jaw line is kept uncovered. The bags should be worn over any one side and should be sweeping diagonally so as to become the eye-catching feature of the hairstyle. This will create a magical effect and will drive away attention from the wider forehead area.

2) If you have slightly wavy hair or even possess naturally curly hair, you can go for soft layers throughout and opt for a center parting. This will help divide the top of the face into two parts while imparting an illusion of more length. These soft layers even look good with straight hair and work well with medium hair lengths.

3) You can try out this great combination of long as well as medium layers in this hairstyle which imparts a rounding effect. Soft bangs are optional though they help in framing the face around the forehead and the temples.

4) If you are in favor of a retro look, try the backwards graduation or waves which have a backward slant. It will keep away extra strands of your away from the chin area but would give a look which diverts attention from the broader forehead.

5) A medium parting with straight sleek cut not highlights the eye area it also helps to soften the prominent jaw line of a triangular face. If you like to keep your straight medium hair length looking sleek and neat, this hairstyle is a great option to sport. You can wear the hair partly tied or even let your medium hair down for all occasions. This style works best with straight hair though.

In India, we are really fond of long hair but managing long hair especially in summers become very difficult. However, women do not want to usually go for short hair cuts. Hence, the best option is medium length hair. This length of hair is easy to maintain, looks good and adds definition to your face when styled and cut properly.

People, who love layers, can have a medium length hairstyle with graduating layers. Today, most girls in most parlors want graduating layers. This is because they look really good on most face cuts. Also, there is nothing like coloring some of the streaks in a layered hairstyle. This accentuates your look like nobody. However, remember that you need to style your hair well before going to work or even before party. Hence, after shampooing your hair and conditioning it, blow-dry your hair (try to use a diffuser attachment). The best is to let your hair dry naturally but you can use a blow drier. Also, use a styling detangler to set your hair.

 Another style that can be experimented with is a straight shoulder length hairstyle with layering around the perimeter of the hair. Here one needs a slightly longer bang that will add definition to the face. The hair also needs to be textured. The layers in the hair need to be soft so that they frame the face cut properly. Many people prefer razoring or slightly chipping the ends of the hair for style. This too looks trendy and creative. A light styling product can be applied to the hair after a wash. While blow-drying the hair, comb your hair towards the face so as to accentuate the layers.

Medium Hair Styles are quite versatile, can easily be in vogue and looks fashionable as well as is easy to maintain. Medium layered hair style is one of the best styles that can go with straight medium length hair or curly wavy hair. It is the length of medium hair that allows a stylist to be creative and flexible being able to transform hair into a beautiful do up.

One of the styles which can be given to medium length hair is addition of bangs. Extended bangs, jerky, uneven or choppy bangs, asymmetrical bangs are being added for increasing depth to the face and to accentuate facial features of the individual. One of the advantages of a bang is that it is simple, trendy and quite easy to carry. Oval shaped or round shaped faces can carry bangs quite well. You can also ask your stylist to give you a bang that slides and shifts as you move, creating a very sexy look.

Those who have a high forehead should go for a side swept band as it makes their face look more stylized and gives a definite outline to the face cut. They highlight the chin area and other facial features. However, it is necessary to use hair products that soften the hair for nice clean look.

Fringes look great with medium length straight hair. However, one needs to maintain these by regularly using a blow dryer. People with curly hair should avoid going for fringes as maintaining them would be difficult.

No matter where and who the hairstylist is, one is trained to work on varying lengths of hair, no matter what age. Yes, stylists may choose to limit themselves to work with only men or only women, or then work on both. But that is not as important as is the ability to be creative, innovative and create a hairstyle that fits in perfectly with the client.

In the case of medium length hairstyles, while there is immense scope for creativity, yet it can be rather difficult and tricky, considering a little extra snip here and there can create a mess-of-a-style. Another important aspect the hair stylist needs to keep in mind is the growth of hair. In the initial four to five weeks the style looks great; but as the hair grows out, it tends to lose shape after approximately six to eight weeks, requiring the client to re-visit for a trim or re-shaping. And this is much to the distaste of the client.

There are not many stylists who have perfected the art of short to medium hairstyles. While during the initial phase the style looks attractive, very few stylists can give cuts that do not go out of shape for months together. Thus, when visiting a salon, one should ideally opt for easy hairstyles for medium length hair, so that it grows out rather evenly.

The problem lies with the more complicating styles. The more the layers, and the more complex the style, the more uneven is the growth. The result is that it grows out shabbily. And what style looked shapely initially begins to look rather messy.

However, no matter what one is recommended to visit a salon for a trim between eight to ten weeks after a cut in order to snip away the dead ends that make the hair look coarse, dry and lifeless. And for those who want to grow their hair out must follow this routine. The hair does grow faster.
