So if you want to give yourself a slight makeover and upgrade without taking drastic changes consider adding layers to your next style. To help you with that we have put together a list of 25 of the Trendiest medium layered haircuts and medium length hairstyles for women. We hope you enjoy.
1Blonde neck length cut with parted bangs
We love this overly layered look. It is simple yet the layers really offer it character. The split bangs make this look super sexy. The split bang allows this look to fall according to your face shape. This is especially flattering on those with oval faces.
2Mid-tone cut with side swept bang
Here we have this classic layered cut. This cut is a mid-toned color which is mixed with light blondes and browns. The side bang definitely add volume and shape to this look. Blonde and brown are two colors that compliment eachother very well and are not too out there.
3Simple flipped style
We love this deep toned color because it looks great with pastel tones such as corals and pinks. This has a thin bang and curls that fall away from the face. Having hair that falls away from the face makes sure that your features are the focal point of your look, this one is one of the most easy going layered medium haircuts styles.
4Fall colored layers
We love these fall colored locs. This style is cut and shaped in a triangular pattern. The top is full creating a lot of volume and bounce. The layers on the style are focused in the middle and crown areas. Focusing the layers on the crown area creates an even amount of volume which eliminates the hassle of products and teasing the hair which can cause breakage.
5Curly with bangs and highlight
Here we have a neck length curly style. We love how this is slightly messy making it not so overdone. This is completed with bangs and light brown highlights. If you’re not big on color but you want to step out of your comfort zone brown highlights are the way to go, they subtle and do not draw much attention unlike brighter colors such as blonde and red.
6Volumized layers
We love this fiery orange color.This style and shape reminds us of the 50s with a modern twist. These layers are subtle but are really present towards the ends. This color looks great in the fall season but also is a great transition into the spring and summer seasons. In the summer when the sun hits your hair it will bring out beautiful golden under tones.
7Rockstar hair cut
If you’re into the punk and goth look then give this super layered look a try. The layers get shorter as you reach the crown area which adds tons of volume and personality to the look. Rock dark makeup to complete the look. Need some inspiration? Check out some of Rihanna’s dark and vampy looks.
8Fringe cut
Another rocker style is this fringe cut. The top is more of a bowl cut that gradually gets longer. this cut is edgy and will grow out beautifully. To spunk it up add a neon color like pink throughout. Fringe is totally in! You see fringe everywhere on clothes, hair and even shoes and it is a trend that we are not mad about we love it.
9Chocolate brown with bangs
Selena Gomez always looks amazing with a natural look. So of course, we loved when she rocked this deep chocolate look with long layers and a fringe type bang. This style would look great on women with rounder faces.
10Wavy blonde layers
Here we have a blonde ombre wavy textured look. We love the simple blonde ombre which is a yellow blonde at the top and a platinum blonde at the bottom. The super light waves add shape to this look.
11Long layered bob
How gorgeous is this long layered bob? This style has a lot of volume and is definitely a go-to style for the spring and summer months. Add highlights to really spice up this look. Bobs are super sexy and fierce and definitely bring out your inner diva. They are perfect for any setting work, a night out or a day out shopping. Did we mention that they require very little care?

This is an ultra-defining layered look. The angled shaped defines those with sharp jawlines. The back is layered with curls and that gives this style its uniqueness.
13Fire red long bob
Rihanna looks amazing in any color but this fiery red just might be our favorite. This long bob has light layers which gave this style its circular shape. We love how she paired this with cranberry tones in her makeup. Is this too red for you? Tone it down by basing it with orange and brown tones.

The layers add so much volume to this look and compliment the shape of the hair. Her makeup here is stunning as well and really pairs nicely with the different tones of her hair. This makes her look mature but does not age her.
