Mid-length haircuts with layers are having a moment.
They strike the perfect balance—long enough to style, short enough to keep fresh.
Layers add shape, movement, and that effortless “I woke up like this” energy.
But not all layers are created equal. Some add volume, some remove weight, and some just make your hair look like it’s always ready for a magazine cover.
The right cut can frame your face, enhance your natural texture, and make styling easier.
In 2025, layered mid-length cuts are getting softer, airier, and more customizable.
Blended layers, curtain bangs, and effortless waves are leading the way.
And the best part? There’s a layered cut for every hair type and personal style.
