Popular low-maintenance medium-length hairstyles are simple to style and require minimal upkeep. These are ideal for women looking for a polished and tidy appearance to showcase every day.
Master stylist Danielle Deamelio from Swampscott, MA, shares her insights on this haircut. “Make sure it falls right above or below your shoulders. If not, your hair will flip out and up, resulting in an awkward length to wear,” she explains.
If you possess a thick or curly mane, these styles can make your hair appear thicker and curlier than it actually is. Deamelio mentions that removing weight from the hair can lead to the strands springing up.
Request your stylist to thin out your locks to achieve your desired look, advises Deamelio. She encourages women to understand what needs to be done daily to keep it looking good. Think twice about getting the haircut if it’s challenging to meet its daily styling and maintenance requirements.
Styling medium-length hair is a breeze. Putting your hair up in a bun or ponytail is a quick and straightforward style that keeps you from having bad hair days. Refresh your styling toolkit with a blow dryer, flat iron, and/or curling wand.

Framing Your Face with a Money Piece
The framing your face with a money piece is a total hit. Please discuss with your colorist how high the money piece should start and how soft or bold you want it to be. When the base is dark, level 5 and below, it’s better to avoid starting too close to the scalp because that can make the money piece look disconnected and stripy. Waving the money piece away from the face will expose the blonde color even more. Don’t forget to use hairspray and let the waves cool down before brushing it out.
