Medium layered haircuts with bangs give women a fresh look that’s effortless to style. The length is versatile as you experience the perks of having both short and long tresses.
Stylist Greer Tepper of Columbia, MD points out that mid-length locks can be simple to style. “If you let your natural texture do its thing, the medium layered chop will work perfectly,” she states.
Your lifestyle is one of the factors to consider before getting layers and a fringe.
Tepper explains, “Bangs can be a real annoyance if you’re not prepared for them. They need styling every morning. Also, a medium cut doesn’t demand too many layers as it may appear less modern.”
Remember, you may not be able to pull all your hair up. If your daily activities require you to wear ponytails or buns, having medium-length hair isn’t ideal. Yet, you can do a quick low updo, for sure!
Consult your stylist to make sure you get the perfect length and style for your face shape. They know what to recommend to you.
The secret to a fresh-looking style is here! Check out these inspiring pictures of medium layered haircuts with bangs that are worth trying.

Spruce up your medium-length cut with long, sleek side bangs and stunning, face-framing layers. Longer side bangs can help emphasize bright eyes or pronounced cheekbones. Meanwhile, the face-framing layers enhance your natural face shape. Wear your hair in a smooth blowout to show off your new cut’s gorgeous texture and movement.
#2: Face-Framing Visible Layers
If your style is limp and has fallen flat, try face-framing visible layers to spice up your hairstyle. Adding in a wispy long bang can also be a fun and stylish way to add shape to your lifeless locks. With my years of experience, it’s important to assess bangs and framing that’s nice for your face. If you have a longer forehead with high cheekbones, you can go longer and wispier. Remember you must have a soft face frame when you pair the two. Try adding in soft highlights for a lived-in effect.

If you love to “wash ‘n go” and wear your hair in its natural texture, ask for a haircut with layers and a nice curtain-y fringe.
