#37: Medium Cut with Textured Bangs

Medium-length hair is often unfairly associated with the transitional phase that one goes through while waiting for their hair to grow out. Even if this is true for you, embrace this time by trying out some new styles. A textured bang will add some drama to your locks without compromising the growth progress.

#38: Layered Short Cut

Medium and short haircuts can be as versatile as long ones if you choose the right style. This layered bob would look awesome styled straight or as shown with loose waves. Play with the part placement for a variety.

#39: Medium Layered Cut

If you have thin hair and are debating medium haircuts, think of the placement of your layers. You don’t necessarily need a ton of varying lengths as long as they’re strategically placed. Notice the fullness on the sides of the face. It creates an awesome voluminous style, slightly messy and imperfect in a good way.

#40: Shoulder Length Casual Hairstyle

Shoulder length is a great half-way point when morphing from long to short haircuts. It offers a cute style without the maintenance and commitment that often comes with shorter crops. Go with fewer layers that are happy to be styled or left to their own devices on busy mornings.

Well, luckily the oval face shape means no restrictions in hairstyles. Short, medium or long, straight, wavy, or curly, choose whatever feels right, try dramatic and soft styles, be different, be gorgeous, shine brightly, girl!
