Medium Haircut Inspiration for 2018

Even if you love your current haircut, there's something about the change of a season that makes you wonder, "Should I go for it and chop it off?" or occasionally, " Should I try bangs?" Unless you've done your research about what haircut will flatter your face shape and are emotionally prepared for a drastic change, a major haircut is probably not the best idea. If you're itching for something new but don't want to make a dramatic alteration, these medium-length haircuts are just right. Whether you opt for some casual fringe, minimal layers, or keep it simple with a timeless lob, medium length haircuts are the easiest, most universal looks. Have a medium-length cut already but want to spruce it up? Try an asymmetrical style or test out subtle babylights. These medium haircuts are easy to maintain and will flatter any face shape. If you're unsure what to tell your stylist but you want something fresh, these medium length haircuts are the way to go.

One-Length Ease

A no-fuss, one-length cut doesn't have to be boring. You can style it any way you want without holdups from layers or bangs.

Wavy Layers and Caramel Ribbons

Warm ribbon highlights look beautiful on wavy or curly hair, and a few layers add even more texture.

Curly Cut With Baby Bangs

With naturally curly hair, baby bangs will never fall flat. Short, choppy bangs are equal parts sweet and edgy.

The Classic Lob

The lob is a universally flattering, manageable cut for any hair type and face shape. Long enough to put in a ponytail, short enough to style easily, the lob can't be denied.

Full Fringe and Piecey Layers

Straight across fringe that tapers on the ends isn't as harsh as one-length bangs, especially when paired with wavy layers. This look is a take on the new shag, the haircut of the moment.
