Medium wavy hairstyles are the perfect way to perk up your look. Many wavy hairstyles can be adapted for medium-length hair like a textured twist or beachy waves.
Some of these relaxed hairdos can be easily achieved without the use of hot tools, using a few braids and rubber bands instead. Elegant vintage waves are classy and instantly upgrade your hair to star status.
A variety of techniques can be used to achieve waves; from twisty buns, pin curls, braids, or by using a flat or curling iron. Whatever your style, you’re certain to make a statement with one of these medium wavy hairstyles!
Splendid Layered Medium Wavy Hair
These dazzling layers suit tan and warm skin beautifully. Absolutely a high fashion and cool appearance for those looking for a fresh new look.
Lovable Medium Wavy Hair
What better way to show off that super bright blonde hair than by creating these gorgeous beachy waves. Notice how texture starts at eye level and goes smoothly until the ends, a medium-length style that would suit oval faces perfectly.
Fun Beach Waves with Choppy Bangs
The best part about a medium shag is the texture in the fringe which is cut into the desired shape, allowing the client to have an edgy look with minimal effort.
Think about how quickly a fringe grows out. You would have to be consistent with every two-week appointment to maintain the fringe. Also if you have a very active lifestyle, fringe can be challenging.
Style with a sea salt spray like Fashion Waves by Redken to add to the lived-in look. For the fringe, I would recommend using Wax Blast by Redken to enhance the texture.
A medium-length shaggy haircut works well for a heart-shaped face or round-shaped face as it directs your attention to the eyes and away from the chin and cheeks. For a round face shape, the angle of the fringe elongates the face. This cut works well with a fine to medium hair texture as it is easier to manipulate the hair into the desired style.
Spectacular Mid-Length Wavy Hair with Bangs
Spectacular mid-length wavy hair with bangs is so in style! The fringe gives a youthful touch, which makes this hairstyle suitable for women of all ages. If you have a warmer skin tone, add sun-kissed pieces for added elegance.
Blunt Shoulder-Length Layers
Q&A with style creator, Jessie Lindsay
Hairstylist @ The Circle Salon in Chicago, IL
How would you describe this look?
This is a blunt, shoulder-length haircut with long piecey layers. You get the feeling of density at the ends with the blunt line and the layers help keep the shape from looking like a “Christmas tree” (i.e. too wide at the bottom of the cut).
I love how this cut looks great with one’s natural waves or with straight hair. It’s very versatile. Medium wavy hair provides lots to work with and so many combinations.
Any advice for someone considering it?
As this cut grows, it will start to hit the shoulders sooner than a shorter look. This can make the hair flip out on the sides. If this bothers you, you will want to make sure you are coming in for regular haircuts every seven to eight weeks.
Balayage grows out so beautifully, but in between lightening you may need to come into the salon for a toner to keep the tone fresh and steer clear of feeling brassy.
Silver Grey Waves
Q&A with style creator, Cristina Cruz
Hairstylist @ Shampoo JC in Jersey City, NJ
How would you describe this look?
This look reminds me of the glowing reflection of the moon. It is a silvery platinum with a pastel blue hue. I love how mystical she looks!
Any advice for someone considering it?
This look would be best for clients who have healthy virgin hair, time, and commitment to begin with. Maintenance is not too difficult as there are color conditioners that can be used to refresh colors.
This color tone could be tailored to anyone with any skin tone and face shape. I don’t believe in limiting yourself to one type of color because of rules. Break them and rock them. If you really want a color of your dreams, go for it.
Effortless Textured Lob
Opt for an effortless textured lob. It’s easy to wear natural or wavy.
This style and look complement almost every face shape because of the longer lines in the front that frame the face. This layered cut also works with almost every hair type whether thick or fine. The texture on the ends will give it a lot of movement.
Minimal products are used to create the finished look. If you have finer hair, add texture cream or mousse before blow drying and a texture hairspray like L’Oréal Next Day Hair to finish.
With thicker medium wavy hair, use Shuemura Essence Oil to help blow dry for a sleek look and, if desired, curl with a wand for that wavy beach look. Finish with L’Oréal Professional Next Day Hair.
Blonde Layered Wavy Bob
Q&A with style creator, Kaitlin Ferguson
Senior Stylist @ Studio So Lara in Kitchener, ON
How would you describe this look?
This is a layered long bob with movement and texture. She has very thick hair, so this look works best on her with the blended layers beginning in the mids and continuing through the ends. The layers are what keeps the shape of the haircut flattering.
What I love most about it is how the highlights tie in with the cut. The layers enhance the different tones throughout.
Any advice for someone considering it?
For this wavy bob, I recommend a 1-inch curling iron and a good texture spray for styling. I always tell my clients to not try too hard! This style is supposed to look carefree, so don’t stress over curling each piece perfectly. And don’t feel the need to curl every single hair!
Use long, vertical sections in the front, curling away from the face. For the back, curl whatever you can reach and curl in different directions. Comb through the curls with a wide tooth comb and give it a spray.
Relaxed S-Wave
Opt for a one-length lob styled into a relaxed S-wave. It has the coveted “lived-in” feel while still being unique. The mismatched waves catch your eye, creating an original feel to the style.
For ladies with thicker tresses, ask your stylist to remove some internal bulk to soften the look. For those with fine or thin hair, keep the layers out of the equation as it allows your hair to look nice and full through the bottom.
This is a great style for women on the go that want to look trendy and in style but also want low-maintenance. You can throw in some curling iron or flat iron waves through the top section to add some movement and finish with a texturizing spray for separation.
Golden Sandy Blonde Waves
Opt for a golden sandy blonde wavy hairstyle.
The best thing is the warm tone of this blonde, as well as the natural soft finish. If you love warm colors, this blonde should definitely be one of your favorites.
For clients considering a look like this, take your budget into consideration for maintenance. Any blonde color is high maintenance, so you need to ensure you can afford to have your regrowth done at least every eight to ten weeks, depending on how heavily your stylist foils your hair.
Use the products your stylist recommends to maintain the condition, tone, and style of your hair.
Steel Grey Waves
Q&A with style creator, Robyn Pape
Hairstylist @ Red Bloom Salon in Calgary, AB
How would you describe this look?
This is a charcoal grey done with Aveda Colour. The hair was bleached to completely white to avoid a beige undertone which is why it’s such a clear, crisp grey.
Any advice for someone considering it?
This look is very high maintenance and will only be achieved if the client is willing to put in time and money to get a perfect platinum blonde color without compromising the condition of the hair. Fashion colors (like grey or lavender) wash out very quickly. So if clients wish to keep their hair from going blonde they must use either a customized color conditioner (I use Evo Fabuloso brand for my clients), or by coming in for tones every few weeks. Colour safe containers and protein treatments are also recommended for home use.
Soft Wavy Curls
Q&A with style creator, Cortney Forster
Master Stylist / Owner @ The Beauty Bar Salon in Sterling Heights, MI
How would you describe this look?
This look features soft, wavy curls that are great for most hair types. It specifically works well for fine hair because it gives some movement and volume.
I love that this style actually looks effortless. Hair with dimension and curl have that wow factor that people love. It makes them feel beautiful. This look is also easily created on almost any length. Curls are here to stay, especially for those who don’t have the time to wash and style daily.
Any advice for someone considering it?
If this look is styled with the appropriate salon-recommended products and a curling iron heated to 350-400 degrees (depending on hair type), it should last more than one day. I use a “regular iron” or spring iron (3/4 to 1-inch size) to achieve these types of curls. My go-to iron is the Bioionic Long barrel. I love to teach my clients how to recreate this look at home.
Divide the hair into large sections and leave just the ends of the hair out. Curl all sections away from the face because they will blend into each other. Allow the curls to cool off so they last longer. Finally, shake the curls out or style with a brush. I love using the Wet Brush.
When styling, I always use products with heat protection. I love Sexy Hair’s Iron Spray because it protects the hair up to 450 degrees. Finish with a light to medium spray like Unite 365 which is one of my favorites because you can change the hold factor right on the nozzle.
This look is also perfect for oval to long face shapes because it adds volume in all the right places.
Middle Part Waves
Q&A with style creator, Kirsty Walpole
Assistant Stylist @ Blue Tit in Peckham, London
How would you describe this look?
My favorite thing about this look is that it can be as messy or classy as you want, depending on the occasion. Personally, I like my waves a little messier as that is just my style and I don’t think I suit sleek hair.
This look can be brushed out with little hairspray added to have a neater look, or you can shake your head upside down and add a little texture spray for a more tousled look. I tend to do this a lot with my models after a haircut as I don’t think many people take the time to style their hair at home and it’s nice to have something a little different!
Any advice for someone considering it?
For anyone considering this look, I’d say go for a smaller tong with sections that are about an inch wide. Hold the curl for a couple of seconds before letting go. Going a little tighter with the hair on the tong and going for a wider barrel allows the wave to last longer. Whether you are styling for a daytime look or for a night out, you don’t want your hair to drop out after three hours!
This look is ideal if you are low maintenance with your hair because it is very versatile. I recommend products by the brand Davines. They have all natural ingredients with no harsh chemicals and they smell amazing. My favorite products are the Dry Texturizing spray to help the waves last longer and the Shine Spray for a glossy finish.
Chocolate Brown and Caramel Lob
Q&A with style creator, Melissa Ayala
Salon Owner in Nuevo Leon, Mexico
How would you describe this look?
I’m a huge fan of the bob haircut at any length. This look, in particular, is juvenile, cool, sophisticated and very feminine. I think every woman should get a bob haircut at least once in their life! Whether it is short, medium or long, it will always be a fashionable and timeless haircut that makes us look younger.
My favorite thing about it this lob is that it is the perfect length for a daily bun when you don’t have the time for a wavy style and the bangs frame your face very nicely. When you have a special occasion, you can look very original but elegant at the same time by changing your hairdo. There are so many options!
Any advice for someone considering it?
I tell my clients who are thinking about a lob that this hairstyle, in particular, goes with all types of faces. The only thing to consider is the design of the bangs. If you have a round face, I recommend a side bang. For all other face shapes, keep your bangs a little bit below the eyebrows.
First of all, the most important thing to do is to prepare the hair for heat. I use Redken Smooth Down Heat Glide. Put it in your hair while it is barely wet, and once the hair is dry, make soft waves with a flat iron like the Babyliss. You can spray your waves with TRESemmé medium hold to make sure that your wavy hair lasts all day.
As you see, this haircut is lovely, versatile and it adapts to every person and in every situation. Even if you don’t have time to style, you will always look beautiful.
Versatile Lob
Q&A with style creator, Cailey Scott
Hairstylist @ Vibe Hair Studio in Harare, Zimbabwe
How would you describe this look?
I love this look more and more and it mostly comes down to the versatility of the length and style. Don’t get me wrong, I love long hair and short pixie cuts and everything in between, but that’s coming from someone who does hair all day every day!
Realistically, clients need a hairstyle that they can work with and style for themselves on a daily basis. It all depends on their lifestyle, their careers, their face shape, and their own ability to style their hair that dictates what will suit them best.
Any advice for someone considering it?
This medium-length hair or “lob” (long bob) has suited all face shapes as well as all careers of the clients that we’ve had come in. It’s not too short that you have to style it every day, and it’s not too long that it ends up tied up 99% of the time. I’ve always had long hair, but now I have this medium-length hair and I absolutely love it. It’s versatile in that I can wear it middle-parted, side-parted, straight, wavy or wash and wear, and it still looks good. All hair types can pull off this look.
This style is versatile. I personally prefer the wavy look because I love the texture and the light and flowy feel of it, but that’s not to say that straight won’t work too. Nothing says classy like sleek, sassy and straight one-length hair.
Product-wise, it’s really up to the client’s hair type rather than the cut itself. Fine, flat and heavy hair may need a volumizer (Pli by Loreal Professional) to give some height. Any styling using heat such as a straightener or a wand will need a heat protector (Mega Sleek by Matrix) to ensure the hair isn’t compromised.
My advice to anyone who wants this look would be to go for it! It grows out beautifully and you would play with it a lot more than you would your long hair.
Vibrant & Elegant Red Waves
Q&A with style creator, Leanne Ricketts
Salon Owner @ Elysium Hair Salon in Bury, UK
How would you describe this look?
I would describe this look as vibrant and elegant. My favorite thing about this look is how it is still natural looking, even with the vibrancy of the copper.
Any advice for someone considering it?
Copper is a perfect color for fair to medium skin tones. For darker skin tones, go for a deeper and richer copper hue. I recommend Olaplex No.3 to keep the color vibrant, healthy and glossy.
Medium-length hair suits most face shapes. I used a straightening iron and Lànza Beach Spray to create this stylish wavy hair, which I think is a fabulous look for day or night.
Chestnut Brown with Textured Layers
Q&A with style creator, Kristen Bremkamp
Master Stylist @ On Stage Hair Design in Beaumont, TX
How would you describe this look?
This is haircut is my most requested look right now. It is a long bob with long textured layers. My favorite thing about this look is that it is short and sassy, but still has some length so it can easily go up if needed.
Any advice for someone considering it?
For all the ladies considering this look, GO FOR IT! It can be customized for all face shapes. For example, if you have a long narrow face, simply add face framing. If you have a round face, don’t frame the face
This look is perfect for the young girl who wants to be trendy but still wants her hair up for sports. It is also ideal for the mom who is chasing her kids around on a daily basis but still wants to look cute when she might get a night out. It is also a great option for someone who is sick of having long hair and wants to go shorter, but is a little nervous!
To get this look, I used the Brazilian Blowout Smoothing Serum to blow dry smooth. Then I used my Paul Mitchell flat iron to create the perfect wave. To finish it off, I used a small number of Matte Waves by Oribe to break up the curls then sprayed some Dry Texturizing Spray.
Textured Lob for Thick Hair
Q&A with style creator, Bridget Elizabeth Clancy
Stylist & Manager @ Strut Salon in Portland, OR
How would you describe this look and what is your favorite thing about it?
This is a textured lob, as it is popularly called these days!
I love this cut because it has the best of both worlds. It is blunt enough to look thick and full, and the long layers soften the overall look and enhance the waves.
What products do you recommend to maintain and recreate this look?
To achieve this look, I recommend Loma Organics Curvy Creme and Nourishing Oil Treatment applied lightly to hair when wet. Blow dry with a round brush, twisting sections away from your face. Place pea-sized amounts of both products in your palms, rub together, then apply to dry hair to get more definition in the waves. Use a curling wand if necessary.
What type of client would you recommend this look for?
This is a great cut for nearly any face shape because the layering around the face can be customized to complement individual features. It’s an ideal choice for someone who likes a low maintenance style that can easily be worn up or down.
Beachy Angled Lob
Q&A with style creator, Linda Svevad
Hairdresser @ Auster Salon & Academy in Oslo, Norway
How would you describe this look and what is your favorite thing about it?
I would describe this look as a medium-length hairstyle. It has shorter layers in the back and smooth, longer layers as it reaches the line in the front.
What products do you recommend to maintain and recreate this look?
I recommend starting off with a medium hold heat protector, then a sea salt spray sprayed throughout the hair.
From there, you can either let the hair air dry and squeeze up your natural waves, or use a styling iron for a more dramatic wavy or curly look.
Finish by locking in the hairstyle with your favorite hairspray.
What type of client would you recommend this look for?
I recommend this hairstyle for the client with long, dull hair that wishes for a change that doesn’t necessarily leave everything short, but still gets rid of a lot of length.
The ideal face shape for this hairstyle would be a person with a strong jaw or clear cheekbones and a normal to medium body/face shape.
This hairstyle would suit those that don’t necessarily have the time to prep their everyday look. It’s a hairstyle you could do more as well as less with and still look stylish.
