Hairstylist / Licensed Barber @ Picasso’s Colour Studio in Riverside, CA
How would you describe this look?
These shoulder length layers are very trendy and popular. It can be worn by any type of lifestyle. From businesswomen to busy moms.
This medium hairstyle can be styled down but is also long enough to be styled in a low ponytail. What I love the most about a LOB (long bob) is that it can be edgy and playful but can also be worn sleek and classy.
Any advice for someone considering it?
A LOB can be customized for any hair type. It can be subtle or dramatic. You don’t need to always use heat tools to style.
It looks great naturally straight or with natural kinky curls or natural layered waves.
I really love using a texturizing spray to create a messier and second-day look!
This haircut can be blunt or whispy.
A lob is great for any face structure including a round face shape. It has the perfect amount of hair length around the face to create a slimmer silhouette.

Razor Cut LOB

Senior Stylist & Director of Education @ 42 Fair Salon in Pasadena, CA
How would you describe this look and what is your favorite thing about it?
This is a razored and angled LOB. It’s perfectly texturized with internal layers to bring out the hair’s natural wave. I love medium length layered haircuts like this because you can have fun with styling!
What products do you recommend to maintain and recreate this look?
Apply a frizz-fighting thermal protectant to damp hair. I used Shu Uemura Ultimate Remedy Duo-Serum. Not only does it protect against heat and natural aggressors, but it leaves the hair silky as well.
Take sections throughout the hair and twist them going in different directions to bring out the natural wave, then diffuse or air dry. Touch up waves with a medium-sized wand or curling iron, leaving the ends of your hair out. Mainly focus on the front and crown area.
Finish by misting the hair with a beach spray to add definition and separation for a lived-in look. I used Tecni Art Beach Waves Spray. I LOVE THIS STUFF! It gives you the perfect amount of texture without feeling too gritty or sticky, plus it smells fantastic.
What type of client would you recommend this look for?
This haircut is ideal for someone that already has a bend or wave to their hair. The length can be tailored to every face shape, making it flattering for anyone. Styling is a breeze!

Permed Layers for Mid-Length Hair
@taylor.b.hair
Q&A with style creator, Taylor Bennett
Stylist & Barber @ The Desert Lounge Salon in St. George, UT
How would you describe this look?
This bouncy layered medium length hair was permed and wrapped in an effortless ringlet style. Her short to long layers and course texture made the perfect curly canvas. Say hello to this easy bouncy fun where curls and layers go hand in hand.
Any advice for someone considering it?
With perms making a comeback, it is important to know that you won’t wake up with perfect ringlets or a smooth wave. Curly hair still needs styling and products, whether the curl is natural or permed. Layers will take the weight off and allow your curl to be bouncier and form ringlets.
You’ll need products! For a dry soft look, a lightweight curl cream will help smooth the curl and reduce frizz. For a wet look, mousse can be used throughout the hair. For a little extra shine, use a small amount of shine mist or spray through the mid-section to ends.
Scrunch, scrunch, scrunch! The biggest thing when styling curly layers is to scrunch your hair while it dries. Water weighs your hair down. If you let gravity do its thing, it will cause your hair to dry flat. Continuously scrunch as it dries so that the curl can form.
Short curly hair is perfect for those who would like to complement their round face shape. Curls will also produce a round look for those with an oval or oblong shaped face. Overall, ask your stylist what type of curl and layers will produce the best outcome for your shape and lifestyle.

Side Fringe
@rachellemyarnell
Q&A with style creator, Rachelle Yarnell
Hairstylist / Salon Owner @ The Studio Salon in Cleveland, OH
How would you describe this look?
This is a long bob, or “LOB” as some would say. It’s versatile in the fact that this could still “feel” long, but also can be easily managed.
It is great for fine to medium hair. I cut this into a triangular shape to leave length around the front.
I used Donald Scott Carving Comb to give the layers softness, and Donald Scott Chop Stick to detail the layers around the face and sketch the perfect face-framing look.
I styled using Paul Michell invisible wear foam giving a soft texture to the hair when applying to wet hair. I blew dry with a large round brush and finished with a beach curl using my Paul Mitch smoothing iron. Spray with Worked Up to give a light hold.
Any advice for someone considering it?
It’s very easy to manage, best with a light styling product, and ideal for medium to fine hair. It’s also great for people who still love a ponytail but want a more stylish look. It’s recommended for oval, round, or square face shape, as it can show off your look!
It is great for a busy lifestyle. A ponytail can be achieved but only when you have time and a quick blow out it holds its style.
Shag With Bangs
@hanlynne
Layered haircuts for medium length hair like this one look even more stylish with wispy bangs, don’t you think?
Q&A with style creator, Hannah Lynne
Hairstylist @ Beauty Bar Boutique in Wilmington, NC
How would you describe this look and what is your favorite thing about it?
This is a more conservative shag that was cut with a feather plier razor. I love the movement and piecey-ness and how it looks perfectly disheveled! This look was inspired by Amanda Wall, the creative director of R+Co.
What products do you recommend to maintain and recreate this look?
We are #randcoobsessed and #oribeobsessed over here! I used Park Avenue Blowout Balm from R+Co to blow dry in to protect from heat damage and add substance to the hair. Once fully dried and smoothed with a Mason Pearson flat brush, I rubbed a pea-sized amount of Oribe Airstyle Finishing Cream into my palms and pulled at the ends to add definition and moisture.
What type of client would you recommend this look for?
This look is for the normal to fine-haired woman that has a lot of hair and craves movement and texture. It works great with a fringe and looks best when product is used to define the ends. This look isn’t for hair that has a rough cuticle layer or expands with humidity!
This haircut air-dried on slightly wavy hair gives a great beachy, lived-in look. Any face shape can pull this haircut off! The stylist will just need to determine where to start the shortest face-framing layer dependent on the face shape, and whether or not bangs are an option based on style and commitment to upkeep!
Layered Bob
@hairbycassandrazoe
Here’s a medium-length layered bob haircut, allowing you to rock a textured style. If you always part your ginger mane in the middle, you won’t go wrong with a few face-framing pieces for a softer look. Plus, another reason to love this mid-length hair is its ability to wear all up or half down.

Beachy Waves with Layers
@itsmeganbetch
Q&A with style creator, Megan Colburn
Stylist @ Amarte Salon & Spa in Redding, CA
How would you describe this look and what is your favorite thing about it?
This look is a medium length bob with long layers and lots of texture around the bottom. The texture adds volume and keeps the cut from getting too heavy around the perimeter. I love that you can get that great beachy wave when you style it!
What products do you recommend to maintain and recreate this look?
I always use Aveda products. The best products for this look are Volumizing Tonic at the roots, Thickening Tonic for your mids and ends, and a lightweight smoothing product like Aveda’s Smooth Infusion styling creme. I like to finish with a lightweight hairspray like Aveda’s Air Control to add weightless texture and hold.
What type of client would you recommend this look for?
The beauty of this layered medium hair cut is that it works on all types of hair! It also looks amazing on almost every face shape as it is extremely customizable. If your stylist knows what they are doing, this look is great for everyone!
Since it’s still fairly short, it’s quick to style with your curling iron. Just make sure you’re using your heat protectant! It is the perfect look for the on-the-go woman who still wants a stylish cut.

Middle Parted Textured Lob
@hairbytory
Q&A with style creator, Tory Blewett
Hairstylist @ Medulla & Co in Toronto, Canada
How would you describe this look and what is your favorite thing about it?
I would call this shoulder-length hairstyle an updated textured lob. It’s the new, “grown up” version of the long textured bob that has been popular for the past two years. It has soft, minimal layers and texture throughout, but with a beautiful and blunt silhouette that we will be seeing more of this year, especially coming into fall.
My favorite thing about this look is definitely the fringe. We started with a blunt, straight across fringe about four months ago and transitioned it into this beautiful 70s-style curtain fringe by adding some sophisticated layers.
What products do you recommend to maintain and recreate this look?
For fine to medium hair, I would use a volume mist at the roots and a bit of a blow dry cream from the mid-shaft to the end. This adds that little bit of shine we all love and controls frizz. My go-to’s are the Volumist from Davines and Hair Cream from TO112.
For thick hair, I would I would use a combination of the TO112 Hair Cream and TO112 Serum, starting at the ends and working your way up.
With textured hairstyles, I always finish the look with the Davines Texture Spray to give it a bit of definition and hold.
What type of client would you recommend this look for?
The great thing about this cut and length is that it basically works for any hair type or face shape. That said, medium length hair is the most versatile because it allows for the movement inherent in a textured lob. That being said, there is no “one size fits all”, and even a cut like this needs to be tweaked to suit the client’s lifestyle. If they are more wash-and-go, I would leave the fringe out and do a more A-line silhouette so it’s less work. If they are into styling and drying their hair, the fringe adds that extra bit of interest to this look.
Textured Mid-Length Layers
@jessicabubb.thestudio
Whether you’re a teen or a lady, these textured mid-length layers will look fantastic on you. Make it more dramatic by incorporating waves that can provide volume and movement. Never let this shoulder length layered hair grow out while causing distress. So, opt for a blonde balayage and enjoy a dimensional, low-maintenance payoff.
