Men's medium length hairstyles for a relaxed look

Medium length hairstyles for men are considered very sexy hairstyles. How to you achieve a great medium length hairstyle and can you consider this the equivalent of a bob hairstyle for men? We see many men in commercials with a medium length hairstyle, but how do you style it, so that you also get that flowy, sexy look?

In this blog post I will tell you more about these hairstyles.

Medium length hairstyles for men

A medium length hairstyle for men means that the hair will reach your jaw or sometimes your shoulders. When your hair is longer than your shoulders, it usually is considered long hair.

The benefit of medium length hairstyles for men is that they are easier to brush or comb through in comparison to long hair, so that saves your some time in the morning. You also do not have to learn how to style a big man-bun, because your hair is not long enough for that.

You probably would be able to create a small and slightly messy man-bun with medium length hair. That is basically a tiny ponytail for men that prevents hair from falling in your face. That is right away one of the first hairstyles you can achieve with medium length hair.

One of the options to wear your medium long hair is just natural. You can comb or brush it more to the back, create a mid-part or perhaps a side-part.

A mid-part only works well when you have a very symmetrical face. Usually a side-part is safer and it will make your hair look fuller.

The bottom part of your medium length hairstyle can be cut straight or you can have it layered. The best result depends a bit of your face shape and the type of hair you got.

When you choose for layers, it creates more volume and flow in your hairstyle.

Ask your barber or hairdresser about this.

How to take care of medium length hair

Long(er) hair requires a different kind of treatment than shorter hair. When your hair is medium length, then your hair ends have been around for a while. That also means they have been exposed to the elements longer and at some point they can split.

It is important to product your hair against this, because otherwise you get split ends or dry looking hair.

A conditioner and styling products with nourishing ingredients is important in that case. Especially when you like to blow-dry your hair, you should hydrating products to keep your hair healthy.

A good example of a high-quality conditioner is the Pete and Pedro Cream Conditioner. This is a product by the famous YouTuber Alpha M. It is best used after you used the Pete and Pedro Clean Shampoo. This product contains many natural ingredients that can repair dry and damaged hair. Your hair becomes easier to manage and your scalp will be soothed.

Pete and Pedro Cream Conditioner will not weigh your hair down and it restores the natural pH balance. Your hair will get a natural shine and smells fresh again. The formula does not contain any parabens or sulfates and has a peppermint scent. You can use this conditioner in colored hair as well.

How to style men's medium length hairstyles

You do not want your hair to fall flat on your head, so styling is an important part. How do you create volume, natural movement and texture in your hair?

That depends a little bit on your hair type. When you have thick or coarse hair, then it helps a lot to use a blow-dryer and some hairspray to create volume.

A good product to look at would be the Dapper Dan Sea Salt Spray. This product provides volume and it makes your hair appear thicker. It works well as a pre-styler when you want to apply a Dapper Dan post-styler afterwards. Especially when you have thin or fine hair. When you apply this spray in dry hair and let it air-dry, then you can expect a nice texture with a matte finish.

Dapper Dan Sea Salt Spray can also be applied on damp hair before blow-drying your hair. This way will create the most volume and texture. The formula does not contain any parabens and it has a nice sandalwood scent.

Huub said the following about this spray on Moquer.nl:

"Great product with delicious scent. After blow-drying my hair is fuller and easier to style."

Is your hair thin? Then a volume powder could potentially be something for you. The Slick Gorilla Hair Styling Powder provides a lot of lift and an invisible hold. It will seem like you have nothing in your hair, but still you have more texture and a natural, matte finish. This product works best for those messy and texturized hairstyles.

Slick Gorilla Styling Powder thickens in the hair, so it will look fuller and thicker. You can also use it as a pre-styler to achieve more volume before applying another product to style your medium length hairstyle. The formula is paraben and sulfate free.

Jos said this about the volume powder on Moquer.nl:

"Best for longer and thinner hair. It provides volume, but it is not sticky. Your hair will look fuller. It is easy to wash it out of your hair and hands. It also does not have an overpowering scent, so you do not smell like a hair-salon whole day long. Long story short, this is great stuff, I don't want anything else anymore."

Brush and comb medium length hair

A men's medium length hairstyle needs to be brushed or combed. It is important not to brush your hair when you come out the shower. It is better to use a wide-tooth comb to do that. That prevents the brush from pulling hairs from your head.

The Moquer Big Comb is great when you have a medium length hairstyle.

Jan said this about our comb on Moquer.nl:

"It feels very durable and the wide-tooth comb does not pull your hairs."
