Alternative Medium Hairstyles
Alternative medium hairstyles are unusual, daring, bright, fun, avante-garde, geometric and exaggerated hairstyles that are between the jaw line and shoulder (or just below) in length.
Anything goes really with alternative hairstyles but that doesn't mean you should attempt to create a alternative medium hairstyle yourself. Even if you're going for something a little crazy and out there, it's a good idea to consult your hairstylist first.
Alternative hairstyles are a great way to feel a little more daring and creative. An alternative medium hairstyle is really versatile because its length means it can be styled into a variety of shapes quite easily.
