For days when you want some extra styling, try curling the ends to give some texture and extra fullness to your new bob.

Modern Choppy Hair Cut for Finer Hair

@stefan_scholz_hairandmakeup

A really cool shade to pair with a mid-length choppy haircut for finer hair is an atomic platinum blonde for a solid definition. The messy layers and loose waves give an edgy vibe and make it so cute and very easy-to-style.

The cut in these fine tresses is a structured messy long bob created by hair and makeup artist Stefan Desczyk of Berlin, Germany.

With the shape of medium-length layered haircuts, you can’t really go wrong. It almost fits every face shape. Depending on the face shape, you may have to adjust some details (length, fringe, etc).

“The best hair type for the messy lob is fine to medium thick hair,” says Desczyk. “A wavy base would be even more perfect. For blowdrying, use a thickening pre-style spray, just to give the hair some strength and that bit of fullness. When it’s dry use a GHD Platinum Styler for adding some waves if needed. To finish it off, use a styling serum for definition and control,” he adds.

Using any texturizing products (putty, dry texturizing spray, even your favorite dry shampoo!), a quick tousle, and you’re ready to run the world. Most hair textures can carry this style with the proper personalization and products,” says Fraitag.

Mid-Length Curly Hair

28 Volume-Boosting Medium Length Hairstyles for Thin and Fine Hair

@elenadamovaa

This mid-length curly hair is very soft and feminine and was created by curly hair specialist Elena Adamova of Washington, DC.

With this collarbone-length, you have two options: going for a longer bob where it’s shorter in the back longer in the front (A-line perimeter), or the opposite, longer in the back and shorter around the face.

Curly, wavy medium-length hair always craves moisture! It needs good organic, botanical water-based products meaning when people choose a shampoo, conditioning cleansers, gel, creams, it’s important to see first if the ingredient has water! If it starts with oil or silicone – don’t buy as it will dry your hair long term. Using too many oils on the hair is not recommended because it coats around the hair shaft and prevents moisture to penetrate.

“Especially for the winter,” she states, “I recommend conditioner cleansers for the scalp only. That way when rinsing off the hair all of the natural oils from the scalp goes to mid-shaft and ends. After that, just finger comb it with conditioner. If the conditioner is water-based you don’t have to rinse it off all the way. You can leave some in your hair.”

“Also, apply your styling products on very wet hair, and don’t towel dry it before that. Scrunch it to force the curl to come out then scrunch with a microfiber towel to remove access water.  Let it air dry. A cotton t-shirt will do the trick. The point is not to remove extra water/moisture. A regular towel has more texture that absorbs more, and scrunching with it will create frizz,” she adds.

Low-Maintenance Cut for Medium Fine Hair

28 Volume-Boosting Medium Length Hairstyles for Thin and Fine Hair

@classiclois_hairstylist

This low-maintenance cut for medium, fine hair is a slightly triangular, textured long bob with long layers and a soft perimeter. The cut was created by haircutting specialist Lauren Shabino of Austin, TX. “The best thing about it is that it’s low-maintenance, but still edgy enough to stand out in a crowd. It air dries beautifully, while also maintaining the ability to be worn straight or with waves,” she states.

This haircut is for women with long hair, who are looking for a change but aren’t willing to go “short-short”. The shape lands right past the “awkward length” where the hair starts flipping at the shoulder, so there really isn’t an awkward moment if you decide to grow it out again. It is still able to be put into a ponytail or bun.

For styling medium hairstyles for fine hair like this one, Lauren says, “it should look great air-dried with some styling cream, blown out straight with smoothing spray, or styled with beachy waves using texture spray to finish.”

Medium A-Line Bob for Oval Faces

28 Volume-Boosting Medium Length Hairstyles for Thin and Fine Hair

@jamiethurlow.stylist

This shoulder-length hairstyle for fine hair is an A-line bob haircut. It was created by stylist Jamie Thurlow of Lansing, MI.

“This cut has so much movement and several styling options,” she says. “It can be worn with natural curl/waves, styled straight, or curled with an iron. And this length will still go up for those women who need their hair out of their face at times.”

If you’re considering this hairdo, Jamie says, go for it! It’s so versatile. It can be styled in many different ways to be worn to look professional, fun, sexy, casual, etc. Plus, it’s flattering on every face shape. Depending on hair texture and look (natural curly, vs. straight, etc), like most looks, you’ll need to use some product and tools.

When it comes to styling, she advises, “first, use a detangler/conditioning spray to comb out your medium-length cut. Then, use a volumizer and a styling cream for body, protection, and shine. Rough blow-dry it 80% dry and then section into 4 sections. Use a large ceramic round brush to achieve body and movement. Run a flat iron over the top layer and spray with moveable hairspray to finish the look.”
