Hairstyles for Medium Lenght Hair

One of the most diverse hair lengths is medium length hair. It is commonly considered the perfect compromise between short and long hair in many ways. When your hair is either short or long, you are oftentimes limited to styling choices that normally coincide with these respective lengths. Medium length hair lends itself to the possibility of even more options and greater flexibility by incorporating the benefits of being not too short and not too long. When styled just right, a medium length cut can also help to frame and accentuate your best facial features. Simplified hair maintenance is another benefit not to be overlooked. Generally, the less hair you have the easier it can be to maintain.

The first great look is the diffused style. Anyone can achieve this wavy style of hair even if you think that your hair does not contain any natural wave. The fact is that almost everyone contains a natural wave. The following tips and suggestions can help bring out that hidden wave. Start with freshly washed hair and add a volumizing spray, moose or gel. Scrunch your hair and arrange it approximately where you want it at the end of the style. Then, with your blow-dryer and diffuser head in hand, scrunch first and then diffuse. Hold the diffuser with medium heat over the scrunched hair until that section is dry. Finish with a medium hold spray so that the wave stays but you still allow your hair a minimal amount of movement.

Another great style for medium length hair is straightened. Again, start with freshly washed hair and use a shine infusing gel. Use your blow-dryer to completely dry your hair before you start straightening. Many people fail to do this and then they are unable to get the sleek, straight look they are aiming to produce. When your hair is completely dry, section it out into about eight sections. Carefully straighten each section until your hair is lying completely flat. Finish with a light hold hairspray and you will have a style that will last all day long.

These styles are not too difficult and can be accomplished on your own with the right tools and accessories which you may already have. If you are unsure about your own hair styling abilities then be sure to check in with your local professional hair stylist for additional tips and suggestions.
