Classic Medium-Length Retro Blowout With Curls

Added: 05 Oct 2026
A medium-length, voluminous curly hairstyle with bangs is a fabulous choice for anyone who wants to combine the structure of a bob with the glamour and movement of big, bouncy curls. Sitting around the collarbone to chest area, this style provides plenty of length for creating a beautifully full and flowing shape while remaining easier to manage than long hair. The many layers throughout the haircut are one of its biggest benefits. Layering removes excess weight from the hair, allowing the curls to spring up and form a more defined shape. Instead of allowing the curls to hang heavily, the layers create bounce and movement throughout the style. Brushing out the curls gives them a softer, fuller appearance, transforming the defined curls into big, fluffy waves and curls that beautifully frame the shoulders. The bangs complement the layered shape perfectly. Parted on the side and swept away from the face, they create a soft transition into the longer layers while beautifully framing the forehead, cheekbones and sides of the face. This makes them particularly flattering for oval, heart, diamond and square face shapes. The layers can also be customized to create balance for rounder faces by keeping additional volume slightly lower through the style. This hairstyle works especially well for medium to thick hair densities because there is enough natural fullness to support the voluminous shape. Fine hair can also achieve this look with volumizing products and a suitable curling technique.

This bold style does not need a bold makeup application so go for a non-makeup application with subtle mascara, some blush and a cute lip gloss that balances the overall style. You are now ready to show off your voluminous curls!
