If you prefer to wear medium-length hair, we guess the lob is a great choice. This mid-length cut is good for thin hair because the choppy layers give your strands some much needed extra body. Style a sexy side sweep and think of a soft ombre if you want an extra dose of femininity for your stylish look.

#2: Wavy Medium-Length Hair

If you’re not ready to go super short, consider a mid-length style with face-framing layers. The versatility of this cut cannot be overstated, as it fits any hair type and texture. Soften the ‘do with curls and blonde balayage to gently emphasize your facial features.
