Medium Layered Cut with Side-Swept Bangs

Side-swept bangs add a touch of elegance to a medium layered cut. This style features layers that blend smoothly into the bangs, creating a cohesive look. It’s suitable for all hair types, including thick wavy hair and fine curly hair, and looks great on chubby face shapes.


To style, use a volumizing spray like Indola Volume & Blow-dry Spray. Blow-dry the bangs with a round brush to create a soft, sweeping effect.

Curly Medium Layers

Curly medium layers enhance the natural texture of curly hair, giving it volume and bounce. This style is perfect for those with fine curly hair or thick wavy hair, adding definition and structure to the curls. It suits most face shapes, especially oval.



To keep the curls looking their best, use a curl-defining cream like Garnier Fructis Curl Shape Defining Spray Gel. A diffuser attachment on your blow dryer can help enhance the curls without causing frizz.

Medium Layered Lob (Long Bob)

The medium layered lob is a versatile and trendy haircut that combines the length of a bob with the movement of layers. It’s perfect for thinner hair straight or fine curly hair, adding volume and texture. This style flatters all face shapes, making it a popular choice.


For styling, use a lightweight styling cream like Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Intensely Smooth Leave-In Conditioning Cream. A flat iron can help achieve a sleek look, while a curling wand can add waves for a different style.

Choppy Medium Layers

Choppy medium layers add a bold, edgy look to your hair. This style features uneven, textured layers that give the hair a tousled, lived-in appearance, perfect for those with thick hair. It’s ideal for chubby face shapes, as the choppy layers help to add definition and contour.



To style choppy layers, use a texturizing spray like Garnier Fructis De-Constructed Texture Tease Spray. A lightweight styling cream like Indola Rough Up Molding Paste can help define the layers and add structure.
