Braids also look beautiful in medium length hair, and can add a playful sophistication to your look. For the best results, braid your hair from the temple to the ear, and then secure the hair into a low bun or chignon. This provides a timeless and romantic look that is appropriate for all ages.

A half up, half down updo is also an easy style for medium length hair. To achieve this look, curl your hair and then pull half of the hair back from the temples up to the crown. This provides a soft, casual style. Wearing your hair half up and half down is a terrific way to incorporate barrettes, clips and other hair accessories into your look.

Buns are another popular style. They can be styled to convey either a sleek and polished look, or a loose and romantic look. Buns can be positioned above the nape, at the nape, below the nape, or off to either side depending on the look you desire. Curly or wavy buns worn with the hair lightly pulled back provide a soft, romantic look that is easy to style and wear. Hair pulled back tight with a sleek, straight hair bun will look classic and clean, and will help to show off your jewelry and neck beautifully.
