3 Hairstyles for Medium Length Hair

Medium length hair is having a moment. But if you ask us, it’ll never go out of style. Few hairstyles offer the same versatility and chic flexibility as mid length hair. It’s the ideal hairstyle for those who prefer to style at home as opposed to going to a salon, and those looking for easy styling changeups with a small collection of hair tools.

What qualifies a medium length haircut? Put simply, we’re talking about hair that falls somewhere between short and long. It may feel like an extensive range to be swept into a catchall term, but it’s this wide variety in length that makes the option so appealing. Often paired with fun layers or curtain bangs, medium hair length offers tons of styling options, and it’s one of the easiest lengths to style and maintain. To help master mid-length styling, we’re sharing tips for three of our favorite versatile, easy-to-style looks for medium length haircuts.

The Faux Perm

 

 

Have straight hair or wavy hair  and always wondered what it would be like to sport springy curls for a day or two? Meet the faux perm. The look says curl commitment, but the process is anything but permanent. Just little wraps and twists with the use of a magic wand—like the 0.5” wand barrel on the T3 Switch Kit curling iron set—to see a total transformation. The skinny barrel gives tight, bouncy curls without the chemical treatment (or a little zhuzh to take natural curls to the next level). So, whether your medium haircut is starting with straight hair, wavy hair, or natural curls, follow these few easy steps to dial up the bounce factor.

  • Divide dry, detangled hair into manageable sections and secure with sectioning clips.
  • Styling with the T3 Switch Kit 0.5” wand barrel, wrap 0.5” sections around the barrel. Be sure to wrap all the way to the ends, and alternate curl direction as you work through each section.
  • When styling top layers or bangs, to hold the wand horizontally to bring extra volume to the roots.
  • Gently brush or finger-comb curls for a natural look, and tease around the roots for extra lift. Finish with a texturizing hairspray. 

Effortless Waves

 


 

If beach hairstyles or summer hairstyles are more your speed, this one’s for you. Carefree and casual with lots of movement, effortless waves give chic and styled without being overly polished. Easy to style, easy to sport, and easy to touch up on day two, this wavy hairstyle plays well with a mid-length hairstyle from chin length to shoulder length hair and is versatile enough to achieve on everything from a layered hairstyle to long bob. As the name implies, be relaxed in your approach, curling in both directions and paying attention to how you want the waves to frame your face shape.

  • Divide dry, detangled hair into manageable sections.
  • Use the T3 Switch Kit 1” wand barrel to style in 1 – 2” sections. Wrap a section around the barrel, alternating curl direction as you style.
  • Curl face-framing layers or bangs toward the face for a fun, flipped-out effect at the ends.
  • Tousle waves with your hands, then finish with texturizing spray.

The Faux Blowout

 

 

Does at-home blowout sound like an oxymoron? Convinced you need a stylist wielding a giant round brush and professional hair dryer to pull off the iconic big body style? Not only do you not need a second pair of hands, this tutorial shows how you can fake a blowout—without even doing the whole blowout piece. This is an easy way to achieve the look if you struggle to get it just right using a hair dryer and a brush, or if you’re styling on already-dry hair. Whether starting on choppy layers, a long bob, fine hair, or thick hair, the final look is full of body and subtle bends—just like a real-deal blowout—that goes just as well with a casual look as it does all dressed up.

  • Divide dry, detangled hair into manageable sections and secure with sectioning clips.
  • Use the T3 Switch Kit 1.5” clip barrel to style in 1 – 2” sections.
  • Start at the ends and insert a section into the clip. Hold the barrel vertically and roll up to the roots.
  • When you get to top layers, hold the barrel horizontally to boost volume.
  • Be sure to let curls cool in place before handling them. After each section has cooled off, gently brush through curls and set with a texturizing spray.

Whether you’re rocking a mid-length wolf cut, the ever-popular lob, or shoulder length natural curls, the styling options for medium length haircuts are vast, fun, and easy. For truly endless options in one compact kit, the T3 Switch Kit has you covered. Ready to start styling? Take inspiration from these examples and see what you can do with three barrels and a little imagination. We can’t wait to see how you switch it up.
