Medium haircut: shoulder length strands to modernize the look

For a long time long hair dominated the heads of women, especially in Brazil, where there was always a resistance to shorter hair. But now the scenario has changed a bit and the average shoulder-length haircut has become an alternative to varying the cut without a very drastic change in look.

A number of celebrities, models, and bloggers have replaced their mid-back hair with a lighter shoulder-length cut. The cut received a new outfit and was renamed as long bob, and also presents itself as a rereading of Chanel hair.

The classic air of the cut can be updated with curls made by a babyliss, which can also provide a feeling of frizziness and lightness even on straight hair by the simple effects of the waves. Given these alternatives that the cut offers, we can see the versatility of the cut and that it maintains the class of a Chanel cut, but more current.

American celebrity Kim Kardashian was one of those who switched long hair to medium cut and made a big impact on the media around the world. Here in Brazil, actress and presenter Grazi Massafera has influenced many requests for beauty salon cuts.

Here are the top three versions of this type of women's haircut to choose which one best suits your hair type and your personality and preferences:

Straight cut

Straight haircut with foundation and full length softens the shape of the face and provides a clean, classic look. Even if the hair is straight, the effect of babyliss can renew the cut, giving you an idea of more volume and even that the hair is peaking.

Spanish blogger Sarah from Collage Vintage blog and Aimee from Song of Style bet on the straight cut and use the blond tips to lighten the hair and give it a more modern look. The American Leandra Medine, Man Repeller, keeps the strands in their natural color.

Shredded or peaked cut

Untying hair is a feature often used to decrease volume and create a more modern look. The base of this cut may be straight, but the rest of the hair may be poked, with the most marked layers, or frayed, where the layers become more subtle and the hair keeps moving.

Blogger Anna Fasano keeps her locks peaking, as you can clearly see the layers, while Nina, Niina Secrets, prefers the shredded threads that provide a lot of lightness. The naturally brunette, Mariah Bernardes, from Mariah's Blog, also often uses babyliss to give texture to the threads.

Longer in front

The cut known as long inverted bob or long chanel has its base at the front of the hair, where the sides are longer than at the base, giving extra charm to the contour of the face. The fringe, which is the longest part, can be highlighted with light waves made by babyliss.
