Some women need to maintain a conservative look for work reasons, which means that wild styles are out of the running. Still, when you want to give your haircut some flair after office hours, a dark vampy lipstick should do the trick.
Medium-length haircuts with bangs might be the easiest to style, but they still offer much freedom for the variety of experiments. Let us guide you through the best shoulder-length hair and bangs ideas, showing what’s trendy, convenient, and flattering for your face shape. See some bright examples in the photos below and choose your next go-to haircut.
Layered, shoulder-length haircuts and sassy lobs are never out of fashion as they are versatile and suit all face shapes. Well-cut bangs can elevate these hairstyles while drawing attention to your eyes and balancing your features.
If you are in need of a haircut for round faces, choose styles featuring asymmetry and length, or those adding height to your hair. Asymmetrical or choppy bangs, a side parting, and long curls will work well, while thick, blunt bangs are the ones to avoid. Any asymmetry is also welcome if you are looking for a haircut for square faces. Middle-length haircuts contribute to a nice look, while haircuts ending at the chin line are definitely the ones to shy away from.
For naturally curly hair, opt for mid-length haircuts that create some wonderful volume and do not weigh down your locks, helping curls maintain their ideal shape. If your hair is straight, consider adding a few layers. Choppy ends can also arrange a sort of сute, creative mess on your head.
