Short Hairstyle With Mid-To-End Waves

Added: 01 Sep 2026
Our model looks gorgeous with this short hairstyle that is styled with mid-end waves and placed behind her ears. Cut to neck length, this style sits just around the jawline, creating a flattering shape that feels modern while still having plenty of classic charm. The shorter length makes the style lightweight and easy to manage, while the loose waves give it plenty of movement and personality. The loose waves are one of the biggest benefits of this hairstyle. Rather than looking perfectly polished, the waves create a tousled, undone appearance that feels naturally stylish. They also add volume throughout the hair, helping it appear fuller and more dimensional. This makes the cut particularly appealing for those with fine or medium-density hair who want to create the illusion of added body. A middle parting keeps the look balanced and contemporary, allowing the waves to fall evenly around the face. It also gives the style a clean, symmetrical appearance while allowing the natural texture to soften the overall shape. The sides have been casually placed behind the ears, which is a simple styling detail that opens up the face and highlights the cheekbones and jawline. Because the hairstyle sits around the jawline, it creates a defined outline while the tousled waves prevent it from looking too structured. The result is an effortlessly cool hairstyle that can be dressed up or kept casual. Overall, this short, wavy style is ideal for anyone wanting volume, texture and an undone finish while maintaining a fashionable, easy-to-style length.

Our model has added a subtle pink to her eyelids which is a lovely way for her to bring out the blue in her eyes. With this being such an open hairstyle, you can do the same when it comes to your makeup application and finish off with a bold lip for an evening event, or something more subtle for during the day.
