#3: Messy Shaggy Lob with Internal Layers

Opt for a shaggy messy lob with internal layers. For longer face shapes, try a lob with layers around the mid-lengths. It will create body and balance the face in that area. If you’re looking for a soft cut like this, you must create texture through your hair to prevent a bulky style. A razor or thinning sheets are common tools your stylist uses to create this softness.

#7: Silver Face-Framing Layered Bob

Cool it down with a silver face-framing layered bob. Layers are best at giving your face a lift. Longer hair can hang and pull your face down, making you look older. Doing a face frame instead of a regular bang will still flatter your face. But, it gives you much less maintenance and styling time.

#8: Golden Brown Mid-Length Style

One of the best color palettes, in my personal opinion, is a golden brown color on hair that is mid-length in style. It’s one of the most common and natural tones of hair. The best part is that the color can be jazzed up in all the right places or enhanced as previous color evolves.

#13: Feathered Layers for Medium-Length Hair

Try feathered layers on medium-length only if your hair is extremely dense to remove extra bulk. Otherwise, there will not be enough hair left in the perimeter of the cut to maintain balance from top to bottom. Medium layered hair is perfect if shorter lengths are not your thing. The volume created by the chunky layers and the proper length kept will draw the eyes up and down which is naturally more flattering for the face.

#23: Medium-Length Wavy Bob with Bangs

If you’re looking for a cut that will change up your look but can still be pulled back into a ponytail, try a medium-length wavy bob with bangs.

If you have thick tresses, make sure weight is removed from the interior to prevent too much width.
