Formal Medium Wavy Hairstyles
A formal medium wavy hairstyle can be described as tailored, structured and elegant looking. It's the kind of hairstyle you'd wear to an important function that requires dressing up. These hairstyles vary from soft layered looks to one length cuts. Shapes can vary; for example bangs can change the appearance of the face shape and shorter top layers can add height and body. Natural waves react extremely well to layer cutting, which eliminates weight from the hair and makes it much easier to style. Waves are usually molded into shape using rollers or heat appliances. Natural waves can be styled using scrunching techniques and styling products for shape and hold. Medium length hair is the classic length, and waves soften and dress up the look ever so well.
